Mike Huckabee all but calls President Obama a Nazi. Update!

Courtesy of Haaretz:

 Former Arkansas governor and GOP presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee blasted President Barack Obama on Saturday over the nuclear deal reached between Iran and world powers, saying that by trusting the Iranians, the president "will take the Israelis and march them to the door of the oven." 

In an interview with Breitbart, the 59-year-old conservative television personality called Obama's foreign policy "the most feckless in American history" and dubbed the Iran deal "the most idiotic thing." "It should be rejected by both Democrats and Republicans in Congress and by the American people," he said.

"March them toward the door of the oven?"

How is that any different than Teabaggers holding up signs like this?

 Seriously Republicans, is Mike Huckabee, Donald Trump, and the rest of the GOP clown car, really the best you can come up with to run for the most powerful political office in the world?

Update: Damn look how proud Huckabee is of this remark.

Well good let him wear it like a Scarlett "A" for asshole for the est of his life.

    Trump campaign manager: Huckabee’s right — Obama is sending Israelis to the ovens

    ...On Monday, Michael Cohen, campaign manager for Republican 2016 front-runner Donald Trump said on CNN that he agrees with Huckabee’s assessment that the current U.S. nuclear deal with Iran “will take the Israelis and march them to the door of the oven.”

    Cohen — who serves as “special counsel to Donald Trump” — was a guest on CNN’s New Day with Chris Cuomo.

    “Does Donald Trump think it was wrong and offensive?” Cuomo asked, about the governor’s choice of metaphor.

    This shit has got to stop. Israel can take care of itself. Iran has NO Nukes, Israel, thanks to us, has several HUNDRED. It's not the scared, helpless little sister some pols make it out to be. It's killing Palestinians easy enough.

    Our President has done his damndest to make this country work for everyone. He's given the uninsured that number in the millions, access to decent health care. He wants to protect people that came here for a better life, especially the children. He wants to get guns our of the hands of people who shouldn't under any circumstance get them. He doesn't want to commit more of our military to conflicts that will take more of their lives. He wants to put people to work that are desperate to take care of their families. He wants to make sure our children and future generations are afforded the best education, the best chance to make a good life for themselves and many more initiatives.

    EVERY step he takes to move us forward, Republicans are determined to make him take 5 steps back, if not stop him in his tracks.

    One thing that pisses me off the most in that agreement with Iran is the US is NOT in it alone. There were 6 COUNTRIES that came up with that agreement after months of negotiations, yet not one of the cowards on the Right ever mentions that they are also contributing to Israel's demise. Let them call out Germany, Japan, Russia, France and China and accuse them of being anti-Israel. I fucking dare them.

    Huckabee Really Doubling Down on Iran/Holocaust Link

    Obama Fires Back at Huckabee over Iran Comments: ‘Ridiculous if It Weren’t So Sad’

    ...“The particular comments of Mr. Huckabee are, I think, part of just a general pattern that we’ve seen would be considered ridiculous if it weren’t so sad,” Obama said.

    “I mean, we’ve had a sitting senator call John Kerry Pontius Pilate. We had a sitting senator who also happens to be running for president suggesting that I’m the leading state sponsor of terrorism. These are leaders in the Republican party.”

    “Part of what, historically, has made America great is particularly when it comes to foreign policy, there’s been a recognition that these issues are too serious, that issues of war and peace are of such grave concern and consequence that we don’t play fast and loose that way,” he concluded.

    “When you get rhetoric like this, maybe it gets attention, and maybe it’s just an effort to push Mr. Trump out of the headlines, but it’s not the kind of leadership that’s needed for America right now,” he said.

    U.S. President Barack Obama on Monday said he was yet to hear a strong factual argument against a nuclear deal with Iran and criticized rhetoric about the agreement from some leading members of the Republican party.

    Obama, speaking in Ethiopia during a tour of African nations, said the majority of the world's nuclear scientists and non-proliferation experts backed the July 14 accord, indicating it was the best way to stop Iran acquiring nuclear weapons.

    "There is a reason why 99 percent of the world thinks it's a good deal -- it's because it's a good deal," Obama said during a joint press conference with Ethiopian prime minister Hailemariam Desalegn in the capital Addis Ababa.

    "The good news is that I've not yet heard a factual argument on other side that holds up to scrutiny," he added.

All of this and more, without offering one single concrete solution to any problem whatsoever. They are now the party of what was.

    The dialogue they promoted was total disrespect for the,then, federal government and all of its elements. Sound familiar? The whole deal then was about keeping slavery going as a source of free labor. There is nothing romantic about the many lives lost.
    I see racism just about everywhere and total disrespect for the man and the office. The idiots spouting their venom, like huckleberry, don't care. We have a different set of business leaders/aristocracy now, but the language hasn't changed.

Last time I looked there were multiple nations involved in this deal and its negotiations, such as Germany, France, Great Britain, Russia, among others, not just the US, and they all have as much to lose as we do if the deal goes South, perhaps more considering that they are closer to Iran. It is only the Saudis and the Israelis who seem to be controlling the public media outrage and feeding the cowardice the GOP.

    I believe its a way to turn off voters so that folks just turn away from politics altogether, while being able to claim the entire field of candidates are all full of shit. Its a very cynical approach to governing, but its a strategy the GOP have resorted to employing in several of the last election cycles.

    The entire reason the Teabaggers succeeded in '10 and '14 was because they were able to get a toe-hold into politics by employing their willingness to slash and burn every normative value to the ground, rhetorically-speaking this is, when it came to civility in politics. Those opposing many of these Teabaggers just didn't showed up in enough numbers to counteract their non-serious, nihilistic approach to politics. Not only does their approach to politics "cheapen the debate", it cheapens the entire field of candidates, and what it means to be a public servant in general. But since it worked once or maybe twice in driving some voters from coming out in midterm elections, they're back to trying it again. Unfortunately, they fail to see that Presidential election years bring out an entirely different crowd of voters, those that take issues very seriously as to who occupies the White House and those down-ticket candidates on the ballot.

    These Rethugs are still working off their midterm election playbook...They're incapable of shifting gears because they've come to believe their own hype.

    Still, the tendency to drive down interest in serious policy debates and generally in our elections because of non-serious comments made by non-serious candidates, presents itself again as nothing more than farce, which some voters are convinced is what the entire electoral process has become. I personally don't think it will work in '16, but in '18 (another midterm) we'll be back to square-one trying to keep the barbarians at the gate.

    Mike Huckabee thinks his rhetoric will be welcomed by Jews. It is not. It is just another example of Republican extremism run amok, of a complete, Palinesque disregard for facts or feelings.

    The National Jewish Democratic Council today denounced comments made by former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee in the strongest possible terms after the Republican presidential candidate stated that President Obama is leading Israelis “to the door of the oven.” The organization called on the numerous Republican presidential candidates to denounce the offensive remarks at once, noting that the field had no such qualms about doing so when Donald Trump launched a personal attack at fellow Republican Sen. John McCain.

    “Far, far too often, this organization has found itself forced to denounce politicians for invoking the Holocaust in inappropriate and offensive ways. These comments by Gov. Mike Huckabee, however, may be the most inexcusable we've encountered in recent memory. To state that President Obama is leading Israelis 'to the door of the oven' is not only disgustingly offensive to the President and the White House, but shows utter, callous disregard for the millions of lives lost in the Shoah and to the pain still felt by their descendants today.

    “In our eyes, it is almost pointless to demand Gov. Huckabee apologize for his remarks, although he certainly should. This was not a random, off-the-cuff remark, and the Jewish community deserves better than to hear a false apology that we doubt will stop the former Governor from offending again in the future. What we do demand is that Gov. Huckabee's fellow Republican presidential candidates denounce his offensive statement at once. Republicans have fallen over themselves to speak out against Donald Trump's outrageous rhetoric on immigration and veterans. Will they now do the same and speak out against this unacceptable attack against President Obama that smears the memory of Holocaust victims, as they did when Trump attacked Sen. John McCain (R-AZ)? Or will they stand by in silence and implicit approval? We call on every candidate to condemn Gov. Huckabee's disgusting statement and to show where they truly stand.”

    Why's Israel nervous about Iran nuclear deal?

    Earlier this week, Yuval Steinitz, the Israeli minister for strategic affairs, has threatened to take military action against Iran in the wake of the recent understanding reached between Tehran and six powers.

    The development comes less than a week after Iran and the P5+1 states – the US, France, Britain, Russia and China plus Germany – issued a joint statement at the end of eight days of sensitive nuclear negotiations in the Swiss city of Lausanne on April 2

    This is while Netanyahu has claimed that the Tel Aviv regime “will not allow Iran to become a nuclear power,” according to Steinitz.

    He also called for a nuclear-free Middle East despite the fact that Israel is widely reported to be the only possessor of nuclear warheads in the region and does not allow any international inspection of its nuclear facilities.

    In this edition of Comment, we ask: Why is Israel nervous about the Iran nuclear agreement?

      Israel has had nuclear weapons for decades - from the US - and has never participated in any international non-proliferation agreements. These are facts that Israel never admits to but should.

  36. Huckabee undoubtedly has no idea of how much contempt for Israel and Israelis oozes from his comment.

    President Obama leading Israelis to the ovens? Right. Because Israelis cannot think for themselves, or act for themselves, but only exist as a pawn to serve US purposes and to follow US directives.

    And of course, in evangelical terms, Israel's only purpose for existing is to be present for the end times and the salvation of Christians.

    Huckabee and his ilk do not give the tiniest rat's ass about the Israelis.

    President Obama Rips Donald Trump, Mike Huckabee, and The Entire Republican Party

    ...The President’s points were right on the money. The Republican Party is not serious or capable of governing. Huckabee’s comments were ridiculous, and the party has been hypocritical in condemning Trump’s comments about McCain while having applauded the billionaire’s race based attacks on President Obama.

    The Republican Party is not engaging in serious discussions about the issues. The race for their presidential nomination is a chaotic circus where nothing important is ever discussed. The Senator who made the claim that Obama is a state sponsor of terrorism was Ted Cruz.

    Our political culture is toxic because Republicans aren’t holding up their end of the two-party system bargain. The country does deserve better than one functional political party and a GOP that has been consumed by raging white males who are fighting to keep their entitled status.

    The Republican Party is an embarrassment, and President Obama stood up on the world stage and ripped their ridiculousness.

      The best part of his speech was:

      The President said:
      The particular comments of Mr. Huckabee are, I think, part of just a general pattern that we’ve seen that is — would be considered ridiculous if it weren’t so sad. We’ve had a sitting senator call John Kerry Pontius Pilate. We’ve had a sitting senator who also happens to be running for President suggest that I’m the leading state sponsor of terrorism. These are leaders in the Republican Party......

      ...... And I recognize when outrageous statements like that are made about me, that a lot of the same people who were outraged when they were made about Mr. McCain were pretty quiet.......

    In 2008, on the campaign stump, candidate Huckabee advocated for almost exactly the same approach to negotiating with Iran as the President has taken. Such a hypocrite.

    Shocking and disgusting that Huckabee would use such a tragic event from history to further his brand. Sickening.

    And to call the Iran agreement "idiotic" is so juvenile. What a sad little man.

    Everyone, President Obama included, have denounced his vile comments. Except for Donald, his "advisor" a "Mr, Cohen" doubled down on Huckabee's comments and said Donald approves of the entire statement. Where are the others on the clowncar beside Jeb!? Sarah, of Wasilly, wannabe Jew via Star of David Bling and not full conversion? Where's the mainstream media calling this idiot on the carpet? Where's Boehner and every Republican now in power's outrage?
    The world now sees this man for who he truly is, a charlatan reverend and priest of nothing much.
    Even on RAI, the Italian Station had an entire hour dedicated to denouncing his words, taking the side of President Obama and the American Public, held at a synagogue in the outskirts of Rome with leaders of many faiths. They went out of their way to explain that his views do NOT reflect on our country nor any democracy in the free world.
    Free Speech and Hate Speech are not the same.
