Huckabee attends wingnut conference - get guns ready for "Bloody Battle" with Nazi Obama
Huckabee attends rightwing conference that tells activists to get their guns ready for ‘Bloody Battle’ with Obama the Nazi
by John Aravosis (DC) on 9/29/2009 05:35:00 PM

So when is a senior Democrat going to call on Republicans to denounce this hate speech?

Werthmann at How To Take Back America: "If we had our guns, we would have fought a bloody battle. So, keep your guns, and buy more guns, and buy ammunition. <...> Take back America. Don’t let them take the country into Socialism. And I refer again, Hitler’s party was National Socialism. <...> And that’s what we are having here right now, which is bordering on Marxism."

Let's see who was a part of this hate fest:

Phyllis Schlafly, Eagle Forum
Janet Folger Porter, Faith2Action
Don Wildmon, American Family Association
Michael Farris, Home School Legal Defense Association
Mat Staver, Liberty Counsel
Rick Scarborough, Vision America
Don Feder, World Congress of Families
Joseph Farah, WorldNetDaily

That's not really the fringe of the conservative movement - it IS the conservative movement, and a good chunk of the religious right leadership to boot.

And GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee attended too. Imagine what the Rs would do if a top D presidential candidate attended a conference where things like this were said about George Bush, including comparing America to Nazi Germany. The Rs wouldn't do nothing, which seems to be the Democratic response plan - always.

1. And Huckabee is a preacher. How "Christian" of him to lie and incite violence.

35. Huckabee puts on this good old boy, Aw Shucks persona
but he's actually cold and calculating. I remember that Morning Joe gave him lots of airtime until it was clear he was losing during the 2008 campaign. I can see it happening again.

12. So is Don Wildmon--a minister in the United Methodist Church.
DUers keep trying to convince me that the UMC is progressive. And then a UMC clergyperson shows up at a thing like this. Sickening.

4. There is no excuse for him. He knows better and is taking advantage
of the out-of-control hatred and ignorance he's hearing out there.

No morals, no ethics, no nothin' except blind ambition.

8. Rant and rave, you stupid fool, the moderates are deserting your party because of idiots like you.
This statement alone tells me how painfully ignorant this person is.

"And I refer again, Hitler’s party was National Socialism. <...> And that’s what we are having here right now, which is bordering on Marxism."

He has absolutely no freakin' clue as to the meaning of the words coming out of his noise hole. If he believes National Socialism and Marxism are the same, he's dumber than a bag of snot.

15. National Socialism = Socialism
Or something.


Nationalism: As an ideology, nationalism holds that 'the people' in the doctrine of popular sovereignty is the nation, and that as a result only nation-states founded on the principle of national self-determination are legitimate. Since most states are multinational, or at least home to more than one group claiming national status,<7> in many cases nationalist pursuit of self-determination has caused conflict between people and states including war<8> (both external and domestic), secession; and in extreme cases, genocide.

Socialism: Socialism refers to various theories of economic organisation advocating public or direct worker ownership and administration of the means of production and allocation of resources, and a society characterised by equal access to resources for all individuals with an egalitarian method of compensation.

National Socialism: As a generic concept, National Socialism opposes capitalism, communism, democratic socialism and liberalism.<1> It may also oppose certain nations, ethnicities and other groups that are deemed to be enemies of the specific ethnicity to which it is applied.





Hmmmm... so Nazi like socialism, just not representative socialism.

So it is possible to have representative socialism without the nationalism?




Hello! Lookie here!

Social democracy: However, modern social democracy has deviated from socialism, and supports positions that include support for a democratic welfare state which incorporates elements of both socialism and capitalism, resulting in a mixed economy combined with a comprehensive welfare state.<2> Social democrats aim to reform capitalism democratically through state regulation and the creation of programs that work to counteract or remove the social injustice and inefficiencies they see as inherent in capitalism. This significantly differs from traditional socialism, which aims to replace the capitalist system entirely with a new economic system characterized by either state or direct worker ownership of the means of production.



Gee, imagine that.

16. The Nazis weren't socialists in any way, shape or form
The name "National Socialism" was just a holdover from before Hitler took control of the party. Actual socialists were some of the first people they imprisoned.

I wish the freepers would read "In the Presence of Mine Enemies" by Harry Turtledove. Faux News and the RW smear machine would make the Ministry of Propoganda proud.

25. Huck told attendees that he wants the UN out of the country
“It’s time to get a jackhammer and to simply chip off that part of New York City and let it float into the East River, never to be seen again!” Huckabee said, inspiring a standing ovation.

“It’s time to say enough of the American taxpayer’s dollar being spent on something that may have been a noble idea, but has become a disgrace!” said Huckabee. “It has become the international equivalent of ACORN and it’s time to say enough!”

27. So what we have is a teeny tiny minority of people
who are prone to violence when things don't go their way.

When they raise up with their guns the only choice will be to put them down like dogs.

BTW this whack job says a group of bankers have asked her to speak. Who????????

Werthmann noted that her Nazism speech is gaining popularity. She not only has delivered it to several tea parties, but has been asked by “a group of bankers” to address them this month.
