MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski choked up on Monday as she declared that Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee was not fit to run the country because he had compared President Barack Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran to ovens that were used by Nazis in the Holocaust.

During an interview with the conservative media outlet Breitbart News over the weekend, Huckabee had accused the Obama administration of being “naive” on foreign policy.

“This president’s foreign policy is the most feckless in American history. It is so naive that he would trust the Iranians,” the former Arkansas governor charged. “By doing so, he will take the Israelis and march them to the door of the oven.”

Brzezinski could not contain her shock as she read the comments for the first time on the Monday edition of Morning Joe.

1. I thought it was a good response by Mika

although she was much more restrained than I expected. And surprisingly, Joe sat quietly and then they went to commercial. I thought it was powerful.

Fuckabee

2. I'm getting really sick of these fucking hyperbolic comparisons to the Holocaust.

3. Huckabee is an idiot

[Major Nikon]

12. He's not just an idiot, he's an extraordinary idiot

This same dipshit called Miley Cyrus "pornographic" after performing with admitted pedophile Ted Fucking Nugent, singing "I make the pussy purr with the stroke of my hand".

4. Well done, Mika. I agree completely. n/t

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

5. I'll pass. Fuck 'em all. All these right wing ass kissers are responsible

for the teabagging of the nation as far as I'm concerned.

6. These little "outbursts" on MJ are nothing more than a ratings catch. Their numbers are

sagging so Phil decides to pull this crap so we'll tune in tomorrow. Sorry Phil, no can do...

[Skidmore]

17. No. THis particular one is Joe's way of trying

to help purge the GOP candidate field of crazies. I'll bet dollars to donuts that he got his marching instructions today from the party elite and what better way to do it than have a woman with quasi Dem credentials issue the condemnation. Scarborough's silence was telling, given that he is such a mouthpiece. He's deflecting blowback from Huckabee's supporters to Mika and not alienating the big boys.

7. Huckabee is easily the most despicable of the republicans

He's even worse than Cruz

[mopinko]

8. where was joe?

sat there blinking in the split screen, but he is not there for the comments from the panel.
never watch the show, so dont know if this is the norm, but...

[awake]

11. Mika said that Joe had asked her to say what she had said off camera

So Mika said what she thought and for once Joe did the right thing and keep his mouth shot and did not make an excuse like he often does.

[Fred Sanders]

9. Screw them all and their sudden horrified pretend epiphanies over the insanity of the fascist GOP.

[jalan48]

10. Glad to see the corpoate media telling us how right, too far right is.

[Stellar]

13. Isn't he supposed to be a child of the cloth or something.

Things a Republic0n won't say to become POTUS. If you can't trust a Republic0n minister....f***'um all.

[raindaddy]

14. Mika always seems so calculating and controlled on the air...

I have to give her credit. Her genuine honest response broke the mold and was a breath of rarefied fresh air!

15. Working video link

for now at least:

[spanone]

16. he certainly didn't say it by mistake.

fuck this clown....

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee defended himself Monday after President Barack Obama slammed his comments linking the Iran deal to the Holocaust as "ridiculous" and "sad."

"What's 'ridiculous and sad' is that President Obama does not take Iran's repeated threats seriously. For decades, Iranian leaders have pledged to 'destroy,' 'annihilate,' and 'wipe Israel off the map' with a 'big Holocaust,'" Huckabee said in a statement Monday just hours after Obama spoke. "Never again' will be the policy of my administration and I will stand with our ally Israel to prevent the terrorists in Tehran from achieving their own stated goal of another Holocaust."

18. I wonder if MSNBC got a reply from his campaign demanding an apology.

[Oilwellian]

19. Good for Mika

I'd like to see more of her, in this way. We haven't seen much concern for humanity from our corporate-owned media. It's like a breath of fresh air.
