Huckabee Adviser Clarifies Remark About Homosexuality And Necrophilia: They're Both "Aberrant Behavior," But They're At "Opposite Ends Of The Spectrum"

Talking Points Memo:

Oh, man. One of Mike Huckabee's chief advisers has just attempted to clarify the Arkansas Governor's apparent equating of homosexuality and necrophilia.

In an interview with TPM Election Central, Joe Carter, Huckabee's director of research, argued that while Huckabee does think both fall in the category of "aberrant behavior," he's not arguing that they're the same and sees them as being at "opposite ends of the spectrum" of such behavior.

So, what do you get if you've got a homosexual
necrophiliac? More to the point, when did these
fence-peeking bible-thumpers come to be on
such moral high ground that they're going to
be imposing christian sharia law? What the
blank? And, what's so natural about
being a 'go forth and multiply' meat-bot?
Maybe Hucksterbee wants to live in Stepford,
but they can keep it as far as I'm concerned.
I'm a 'values voter' in terms of valuing
freedom and liberty far, far more than wanting
Bible-based government to rig our whole economy
into a self-replicating socio-economic cattle
chute. Oh, and don't forget the debt, Mike.
Put DOWN the religious literature, and slowly
back away...and the gun, too. Thanks.

Weee onleeeee wannnt to hellllp youuuuuuuuu....

YIKES ~ I'm wondering why anyone running for office would have such a stupid researcher/spokesperson. To link necrophilia and homosexuality is beyond bizarre ~ it's sick and totally uninformed. The only saving grace was the unintended humor in the "opposite ends of the spectrum" and the very funny posts that followed. Too bad it had to be at the expense of the homosexuals.

What is it about these Republicans ...... every one seems to be a character out of a very bad novel. Too bad the late night guys are deprived of all this because of the writers strike. Heck, they don't need writers, this stuff writes itself.

Fundamentalist Christianity is an aberrant behavior which makes necrophilia seem tame by comparison.

Wow comparing making love to dead people and gays I would say that is a bit off the planet. Where do these nut cases come from anyway? I mean who thinks like this? I do not consider gays anywhere near the level of some sick SOB that likes getting it on with dead people that is just creepy. But hell with these religious nuta cases maybe they all like dead people I know they like sending american boys to die in Iraq. Maybe this guy is a closeted necrophiliac

Jesus H. Cornpone gets nuttier with each passing day. I'm looking forward to the PC where he brings out the snakes and babbles in tongues, while his fat kid polishes off a sack of Krystals and farts.

Aberrant behavior like his kid torturing and killing a dog? Wouldn't a decent father turn and focus on his family after something like that rather than run for political office? Aberrant behavior like attacking the balance of Church and State and threatening gays and secularists?
Huckenstein is the epitome of abberrant behavior with his fascist commentary... what a creep.
Christians, heck all religious zombies scare the hell out of me and its people like him that really reinforce it...the religious zombie king... he represents the reasons why we need to keep the church and religions far and away from government...

Huck blew the NAMBLA endorsement. Think Hillary will go after it and speak at a NAMBLA meeting?

Yes, only a freedom hating fascist would oppose NAMBLA.

Aberrant behavior is advocating women must be respectfully subservient to their men. Aberrant behabior is denying the fact you pardon a rapist for political reasons who rapes and kills again. Aberrant behavior is mixing church and state to pander and manipulate the religious right. But whatever two consenting adults do in their bedrooms, absent of physically, permanently harming each other, is not aberrant, it's normal human behavior. So Huck, let's hear what you think about oral sex, anal sex, sex toys and the various postions in the Kuma Sutra? Or are these aberrent as well. What a sad, ill informed, uptight and bigoted person. Oh, and having two bloated, morbidly obese sons is aberrant behavior!!!

I don't want to be caught in the middle of THAT spectrum, no what I'm saying? Don't want to find out what the middle ground between gay sex and necrophilia is
