Huckabee: “Men’s As*es Are To Me What Bacon Is To Jews – I Can Look But Can’t Touch”

“Washington, D.C. – Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee says expecting Christians to accept same-sex marriage is “like asking someone who’s Jewish to start serving bacon-wrapped shrimp in their deli.” He also called homosexuality part of a lifestyle, like drinking and swearing.

“The former Arkansas governor, winner of the 2008 Iowa caucuses and likely 2016 contender’s comments came during an appearance Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” as he defended an excerpt from his new book in which he says he has friends and associates who are gay.

““People can be my friends who have lifestyles that are not necessarily my lifestyle. I don’t shut people out of my circle or out of my life because they have a different point of view,” Huckabee told CNN’s Dana Bash, while deflecting a question about whether he believes being gay is a choice.

““I don’t drink alcohol, but gosh – a lot of my friends, maybe most of them, do. You know, I don’t use profanity, but believe me, I’ve got a lot of friends who do. Some people really like classical music and ballet and opera – it’s not my cup of tea,” Huckabee said.

“He also offered a nod to legislation that some conservatives have advocated on the national and state levels protecting businesses from discrimination claims for adhering to their owners’ religious views.

““I’d like to think that there’s room in America for people who have different points of view without screaming and shouting and wanting to shut their businesses down,” he said. “What worries me in this new environment we’re in, it’s not just that someone might disagree, they don’t want to argue with me, even take a different point of view. They want to close someone’s business down.”

“Huckabee pointed to President Barack Obama’s 2008 opposition to same-sex marriage, but said there’s no chance he’ll ever drop his opposition to gay marriage.

“Think about it like this: if I wanted to look at another man’s behind on the street, I should be allowed to do so – and I am; after all, this is a free country. But on the other hand, I shouldn’t be allowed to marry that man because I don’t want our children to have two fathers. In that sense, I feel that mens’ relationships to other mens’ butts in the street should be [and already are] like the relationship of Jews and bacon – they’re allowed to look, but they can’t touch,” Huckabee stated.

“Huckabee concluded by saying: “we’re so sensitive to make sure we don’t offend certain religions, but then we act like Christians can’t have the convictions they’ve had for 2,000 years.”

    Between Mike Huckabees son that likes torturing animals and now Mike’s admission that he likes to look at mens asses…..I’d say that this is a nuclear family in one hell of a crisis. And, he wants to be President??? LOL…..The man is a bad joke!!!

    Thing is, observant Jews don’t expect me to follow their dietary laws. Wish conservative Christians did the same with their rules.

    Oh geez….another in the closet Republican….Who is trying to teach the country morals that ARE NOT his. Hypocrite.

    Huckabee….that is one of most ‘asinine’ statements I have ever heard…maybe as dumb as the decision Pete Carroll made to throw the football on the 1 yard line. If you are looking you have a serious problem and need to address it. Read, “The Fall of the Athenian Republic” by Alexander Fraser Tytler, “The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire” by Edward Gibbon, and “Slouching Towards Gomorrah” by Robert Bork. This idea of accepting Sodomites as an alternative lifestyle is literally going to destroy America among other things. This is not some ‘lighthearted’ issue but is decaying the very fabric of our society.

    He thinks being gay is all about looking at other guys’ asses? Totally clueless, but he does have me thinking…..every time I see his face, I think of an ass.

    I feel like someone is trying to come out without losing his base voters. I’ll give him E for effort but honestly, is this the level of intelligence and discourse of someone who anyone would consider to run a country like the USA?!? Apparently the answer is yes for many Americans? ?!!!

    Think about it like this: if I wanted to look at another woman’s behind on the street, I should be allowed to do so – and I am; after all, this is a free country. But on the other hand, I shouldn’t be allowed to marry that woman because I don’t want our children to have a mother and a father. In that sense, I feel that heterosexual relationships to other woman’s butts in the street should be [and already are] like the relationship of Jews and bacon – they’re allowed to look, but they can’t touch.”

    So Huckabee is Gay and a Jew. Who knew?

    God know’s what he’d do if faced with a bacon cheeseburger.

    Sounds like you put a lot of thought into this, Huck.

  14. Neil Clark says:

    …I have Jewish family and friends who enjoy bacon away from home…so what is Huckaschmuck doing on his travels..?

    No, what it is like to not give rights to gays in America is like making all meat that you can buy pork and outlawing other meat, which infringes on the rights of jews. It is funny you think you would make a good president, yet you can’t understand how infringement works. I know metaphors are hard for rednecks, so it is understandable why you can’t make good comparisons so you can equivocate why americans regardless of who they are should not have basic and fundamental rights because you think you are so much better than everyone else being a simple minded christian from the south.

    People, please click the “show facts” button. The paragraph about looking at men’s butts is satirical.

  17. Michele Lynn says:
    March 7, 2015 at 8:04 am

    He certainly spends a lot of time thinking about men’s asses, doesn’t he?

  18. Peter Hofmann says:
    March 7, 2015 at 8:04 am

    Is sniffing kosher?

  19. Mike Montgomery says:

    Unless you’re a reform Jew, the you can eat all the frickin’ bacon you want. Pass the ribs.

    As a heterosexual male I can’t tell you the last time I thought about a man’s ass unless I was scratching mine…
