Huckabee Directly Equates Homosexuality With Bestiality
By Greg Sargent - January 17, 2008, 12:00PM

At some point you'd think Mike Huckabee's views would be seen as so controversial that there's no way he could possibly be a contender for the nomination of one of America's two main political parties.

Especially now. In an interview with Beliefnet.com, a religion Web site, Huck has just clarified his view that the Constitution should be amended to be brought in line with God's will -- and he directly equated homosexuality with bestiality.

Huck, in elaborating on his views that the Constitution should be subjected to Biblical standards, had just wrapped up a discussion of the fact that marriage has meant "a man and a woman in a relationship for life." With this context firmly established, this exchange followed:

QUESTIONER: Is it your goal to bring the Constitution into strict conformity with the Bible? Some people would consider that a kind of dangerous undertaking, particularly given the variety of biblical interpretations.

HUCKABEE: Well, I don’t think that’s a radical view to say we’re going to affirm marriage. I think the radical view is to say that we’re going to change the definition of marriage so that it can mean two men, two women, a man and three women, a man and a child, a man and animal. Again, once we change the definition, the door is open to change it again. I think the radical position is to make a change in what’s been historic.


That's pretty clear cut. Changing the definition of marriage so it can mean "two men" or "two women" is equivalent to changing it to mean "a man and an animal." No ambiguity here whatsoever.

3. Does this mean women are = to animals?
or that other men are? I'm confused. How about a gerbil and a chicken? Can they get married? (never mind that last)

5. Huckabee: America's Biggest Loser.
He seems like an aww-shucks kind'a guy, on the talk show circuit, tossing out punch lines with the best of 'em.
Make no mistake, though - Huck-'n'-Shuck is probably the most dangerous of them all.

10. He's saying one fucking absurd thing after another lately
Yesterday he's going to combine the Bible & the Constitution,

today he equates gay marriage to bestiality.

Huckster is an ignorant moron - thankfully his own words will bury him.
