Mr Huckabee, I’m sure you are a very nice man in person and I’m sure you treat your family very well, I could certainly use weight loss tips from you, and I suspect I might like you if I met you…
Thanks to the generosity of the readers I had the privilege to meet hundreds of the finest people I’ve ever met. People who have spent their money and their time to get involved to change their country for the better. Some who have done this for years, many others who have done this for the first time.
I’m a big boy (and those who met me know that is truer than it should be) feel free to call me “outdated, nearly corrupt”, I can forgive that, hell I might even deserve it.
But you are now talking about friends of mine, fine gentlemen and ladies who have treated me much better than I’ll ever deserve. Some of who will be long remembered when you and I are dust.
You sir are a cad! You owe these people an apology!
And now I’m blogging angry which nobody should ever do and you’ve got me awake when I desperately need to sleep so I’m going to stick this to the top of my blog and it’s going to stay there for the rest of the month or until I hear you apologize for this remark. In fact I would be most obliged if you contacted my friend the Lonely Conservative and her fine husband and did so personally.
Until such a time the only word that I will be able to associate with you will be:
Dishonorable!
And oh Lonely conservative please inform me if and when Mr. Huckabee does so personally to you, I would be much obliged.
Update: Yid with Lid elaborates with a much more even temper than I showed.
Update 2: Stacy is a bit more emotive
Update 3: Yes I do link to this post every time I talk about Huckabee and will continue to do so until he apologizes to my friends, via the Lonely Conservative. I will continue to associate the word “Dishonorable” with him until that time, when he does I give my word that I will stop.

Are you commenting angry at the articles title or the clip of Huckabee on Geraldo?
I didn’t hear anything in the clip that ‘ripped’ CPAC, the teaparty conservatives, or anything that could be even contrived as being offensive to anyone or anything.
I think in this case in particular, why not add this clip from the Daily Show with Jon Stewart

Frivolous things first: Mike Huckabee has always struck me as a right-leaning version of (dare I say it?) Barack Obama. He has very strong statist instincts that seem to be both an anathema to limited government and unproductive. So his anti-libertarian rant is not much more than I expected of him.
By the way, I know you’ve attended Tea Parties, but I have to work on getting you involved. We’re (i.e. the Greater Boston Tea Party) doing monthly meet-ups in convenient locations, and I don’t think we have a group out in your area. Once you settle in and my life calms down, if you’re interested, we can collaborate on this.
Less than frivolous things: having met you, I’ll dispute the “treated [you] much better than [you’ll] ever deserve” description. Humility is a virtue, so I won’t dispute your desire to say that nor to feel that way, but that doesn’t mean that I have to go along with it. :p Please add yourself to the list of people who really do not deserve to be slammed by Mike Huckabee.
Where is the corruption? the bygone ways? the lack of insight into what makes America great? I’ve never been to CPAC, but am well aware that the ideas espoused there go down to the people through Fox News and laterally to millions of other Americans through people like you who were there.
I made the post based on My friend’s blog post, the article title and a quick skim of the Politico, but I’ll make it a point to double check the video, after all who ever heard of the MSM twisting an article?
I must confess I charged like a bull in a china shop but these people are friends. When someone attacks your friends you stand up.
I didn’t watch the video either. I read the Politico article when I was tired and it ticked me off. And no, I haven’t heard anything from Mr. Huckabee!
Still tired myself, ended up waking on the hour every hour.from 1-5 this morning. I’m hoping tomorrow will be good old fashioned CRASH sleep after game night tomorrow.

The attendees at CPAC were conservative. The organizers may, or may not be conservtive. Mike Huckabee is a big govenrment, tax loving liberal, who happens to be pro-life.

I showed more temper than you because I have less class than you. It was great meeting you
You have plenty of class as far as I’m concerned.
I don’t think an apology is forthcoming.
There are still 4 days left to the month, I didn’t manage to get the money to go to CPAC until I was down to 2 days on my deadline.
Dunno,
At the D*****B** Convention last year, Huckabee seemed perfectly reasonable.
sorry if this is a bit off topic but…Can i have wifi? heres wat i have: i have a cable in the back of my families computer that says “ethernet” on it that is plugged into the computer and the phone jack. we also have a dish on da top of our house that we somehow get internet through. we have a wireless card installed in our computer, but when i go to all of the available internet connections in the control panel, under the lan or high speed internet categore, we have something that is calles local area connectio, and it says it is connected through ethernet. my question: can i just get a router and hook up da ethernet cable to it, or do i need to have a modem or something else to do it. please help cuz i really want internet on my ipod touch and wii. PLEASE HELP. any intructions or other links will be helpful. THANX!!!!!!! i hope u know alot about this stuff…………..
Sure. The Ethernet connection is your local area connection. That is likely the direct connection to the dish on the roof. The wireless card is something totally different.
You are correct that you would need a wireless router installed unless device provided by the people you pay for your internet comes with wireless built it. Double check with your provider, if wireless is built in you can activate it and use it. If not then you will want a wireless router.
since the desktop is already wired I would not bother using the wireless connection for that. I would use it strictly for the wii and the ipod touch. Almost any brand of wireless available will be ok. The speed of the connection we be dependent on the type you buy and the price will vary accordingly.
Remember to secure your network as if you don’t many other people will be surfing the internet on your nickel, also remember that as you put more devices on your internet connection it may make a difference in response time but likely not enough to notice.
Whatever brand router you buy will have full instructions available online. If you need any more details simply ask.
Good luck.
