Theory of Everything, by Mike Huckabee

All new Republican candidates launch their campaigns with the obligatory digs and disses of Obama and/or Clinton, but Huckabee has taken the art to new lows: “I wonder if he (Obama) could watch a Western (film) from the 50s and be able to figure out who the good guys and the bad guys really are,” says Mike Huckabee, while launching his Presidential campaign and simultaneously articulating the popular cowboy logic behind the forced removal of thousands of native peoples, the subsequent importation of millions of slaves, and the final subjugation of billions more around the globe, all in the name of corporatocracy and happy-go-lucky consumerism. That’s timely, occurring right after Native Americans walked off the set of an Adam Sandler movie for perceived cultural slights. Who you calling ‘bad guy’, anyway, white boy? Sometimes I wonder if liberals are actually smarter than conservatives. It’s nice when somebody like Huckabee comes along and restores my faith…
