Did I dream this New York Times story up? Is this really April Fool’s Day? Am I having hallucinations?
Mike Huckabee used the volatile situation in Pakistan Friday to make an argument for building a fence on the American border with Mexico and found himself trying to explain a series of remarks about Pakistanis and their nation.
On Thursday night he told reporters in Orlando, Fla.: “We ought to have an immediate, very clear monitoring of our borders and particularly to make sure if there’s any unusual activity of Pakistanis coming into the country.”
On Friday, in Pella, Iowa, he expanded on those remarks.
“When I say single them out I am making the observation that we have more Pakistani illegals coming across our border than all other nationalities except those immediately south of the border,” he told reporters in Pella. “And in light of what is happening in Pakistan it ought to give us pause as to why are so many illegals coming across these borders.”
What The Huck? Nevermind, as the Times points out, that “far more illegal immigrants come from the Philippines, Korea, China and Vietnam, according to recent estimates from the Department of Homeland Security.”
Am I dreaming? Wake me up. Please. Is this a flashback from Midsummer’s Night Dream?
I have had a most rare
vision. I have had a dream, past the wit of man to
say what dream it was: man is but an ass, if he go
about to expound this dream. Methought I was–there
is no man can tell what. Methought I was,–and
methought I had,–but man is but a patched fool, if
he will offer to say what methought I had. The eye
of man hath not heard, the ear of man hath not
seen, man’s hand is not able to taste, his tongue
to conceive, nor his heart to report, what my dream
was
It doesn’t get any crazier, does it? This guy is really off the hook.

also. As my grandmother used to say, “Yeah, we need it like a klezmer in toochus.”
…think but this, and all is mended…that you have but slumbered here…
No idea how he’s going to do, but crimeny, he’s scary.
…many of his supporters don’t know just how clueless he is, because they’re clueless too. Reminds me of GWB & his supporters before 2000, when I really believed that no one would possibly be dumb enough to vote to make such an idiot President…
featured the “lesser known” presidential candidates the other night.

Hugh Cort, a combination of Huck,GWB on steriods with the war on terra plus Rudy’s 911 alarmism all rolled into one.
Now I know I can be the ultimate hard to please when it comes to picking the next leader of the free world but it took less than 30 seconds of all of these republican candidate’s (open mouth,insert foot). I was left embarrased that our once great nation produced people like this.
Wall? Border fence? GWB himself is one of the prime movers behind the merger of Mexico, Canada and the US because his boss, the globalists/CFR/Trilateral Commission told him to.
whaaaaaaat?!
my first thought was…. Is he channeling the beauty queen?
Remember the one who tried to work in all the hot-button
issues and places into her response. Sure did prove just
how clueless Huck is!
