TYT: Huckabee: Obama Sticking Israel In Nazi Oven!



Like most of the crowded 2016 GOP field, Mike Huckabee needs some spotlight. The easiest way to get it: start comparing things to the Holocaust. But with various Jewish groups outraged, has he gone too far? Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

"In a fluff piece of an interview with Breitbart, Huckabee skipped way ahead of the rest of the line when he equated the Iran Deal to being a member of the Nazi SS and finding, capturing and taking Jews to the doors of places like Auschwitz.

Seriously, I’m not kidding (emphasis added):

“This president’s foreign policy is the most feckless in American history. It is so naive that he would trust the Iranians. By doing so, he will take the Israelis and march them to the door of the oven. This is the most idiotic thing, this Iran deal. It should be rejected by both Democrats and Republicans in Congress and by the American people. I read the whole deal. We gave away the whole store. It’s got to be stopped.”"*

fighting back hard against the crap. I lterally hate these people. What fools they are. I'm sorry if some here feel the term hate is too extreme but these yahoos are a real drag on our country and its citizens.

did not know for a fact that he doesn't care, at all, not one bit, about Israel or the Israelis.


We need translators in our media.

For example when this person speaks, below him on the TV screen should be a translation, for example when he is saying that Obama wants to put the Israeli people in ovens, the translation would be

"Mr. Huckabee believes a mythic person called Jesus is going to return to Israel, his interest in that country and it's people is solely one of a selfish nature, he really doesnt care about the lives of the Israeli people, just the magical appearance of his Jesus"

Thank Dog for low-hanging fruit. Huckabee is never going to be President. He's a Preacher, for Crissake!

Out of sheer desperation to make the FOX news poll cutoff, Huckabee will do anything!

7. The real problem Republicans have with the Iran deal is it hurts oil prices.

The prospect of Iranian oil flooding the market has already resulted in lower prices per barrel of crude. Republicans and their big oil financial backers hate that. Now, war with Iran, ah, that would pose a threat to the world oil supply, and prices would skyrocket. With hundreds of billions, perhaps trillions, of petrodollars at stake, which option do you think oil companies and their wholly owned subsidiary, the Republican Party, would prefer?
