Mike Huckabee's idea of a "wholesome" musician



Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee suggested on Sunday that President Barack Obama had not taught his children that Beyonce’s music was not “wholesome” because the Obamas lived on the wrong side of the “cultural divide.”

Well, I don't care if you're just 13
You look too good to be true
I just know that you're probably clean...
Jailbait you look fine, fine, fine...
It's quite alright, I asked your mama
Wait a minute, officer
Don't put those handcuffs on me
Put them on her, and I'll share her with you
-- Ted Nugent, "Jailbait," penned when he was in his 30s


But we have pretty good reason, even beyond the autobiographical details, to believe that the choice of 13 in "Jailbait" is not entirely comedic exaggeration. For example, Courtney Love claims to have performed oral sex on Nugent when she was 12 and a half. When pressed, an uncharacteristically somber Love elaborated, "I didn't have breasts yet... it's sick." This would have been around the time of Nugent's 29th birthday.

Maybe he will cleverly deflect by having him and Wayne LePierre shoot some images of black Americans at a firing range?

How can American folk not wake up, sooner or later the corporste media is going to get sick of covering for these radical extremist Christians.

Why are the good Christians not speaking out?

is actually involved in such activities themselves.

And the "good" christians are either too scared of the bad ones or enjoying similar activities by either watching online or helping to fund traffickers.

Weren't there a considerable number of clergy and church (christian) dignitaries who were busted for child porn on their computers and elsewhere in their possession found in a couple of not too long ago porn raids?

It is only wholesome if it agrees with you, and your personal superiority as a white straight Christian male in the world.

The 13 year old in the mix was white, and merely submitting to her "god" and "father" in his will.

This is exactly how the religious right conducts business, and what they believe. I wish it wasn't the case, but I think everyone that is female has always known this from the get go, and *many* men also know how screwed up this thinking is, because they became a victim of it, too. "I own you" is too often a prevailing belief among men and their families.

I'll leave it at that.

Of buying some of this asshole's albums, I would send them to Huckabee.....but I just can't. Nugent would get some of my money and that is intolerable. Is Huckabee going to make music choices his whole platform????

A years-old bit of political gossip was brought back into the limelight in January 2015 when former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, in an interview promoting his new book, publicly criticized the parenting skills of the First Couple, Barack and Michelle Obama. Many pundits were quick to point out an incident that was much discussed during Huckabee's 2008 presidential campaign, one touted as calling Huckabee's own parenting skills into question.

On 11 July 1998, two young men working as counselors at Camp Pioneer in Hatfield, Arkansas, killed a dog at that Boy Scout camp. One of those young men was 19-year-old Clayton Frady of Texarkana and the other David Huckabee, the youngest son of Arkansas Governor Michael Dale "Mike" Huckabee. David Huckabee was 17 at the time of the slaying, although he would turn 18 less than two weeks later. Both young men were fired over the incident.

Typical Republican. If they are homophobes, they're probably gay. If they are sounding the alarms about parenting skills, they probably have some skeletons hiding.
