Huckabeeism Highlights

Like inappropriate comments from your grandparents at Thanksgiving, you just know Mike Huckabee is going to bust out Hucakbeeisms at a debate. Some of our favorites from today’s relatively mild discussion:

  • On why preventative health care is best: “Kill the snake rather than treat the snake bites.”
  • Referring to government bureaucracy on how he plans to keep jobs in America: “I can’t part the red sea, but I can part the red tape.”
  • On students’ lack of motivation: “They don’t drop out because they’re dumb, they drop out because they’re bored to death.”
  • On ensuring music and the arts are taught in schools: “Unleash weapons of mass instruction” in schools.
  • On education: “Second to being the commander in chief is being the communicator in chief.”
