Huckabee understands BBQ

Steven Colbert and Mike Huckabee answered my questions from yesterday.

Huckabee made a “surprise” visit to the Colbert Report yesterday and told Colbert he was still in the race and can still beat McCain – especially in Texas because he understands BBQ. Sounds good enough to me. 🙂

Wonder if the critics will get mad because Huckabee didn’t share the Gospel while on the show either….

Watch the fun…

The Daily Show on Mitt Romney

Apparently Mitt Romney loved America so much, he could not subject it to a Romney presidency and if he keeps running – we let the liberals, aka terrorists win.

Romeny also complains that Europe doesn’t have enough god. But the jihadists have too much god. America apparently has it all balanced.

Dobson to endorse Huckabee

Don’t know if this helps or hurts.

For those who are fans of Mike Huckabee for his family values and faith this will help bring people to his side. For those who don’t agree with these issues I think it will turn people away. It will be interesting to see how it works out.

I’m wondering how Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh are feeling after endorsing Mitt Romney for President. Will they side with Huckabee now?

Losing Idols

Wait – did Eric just post a new blog entry?
I assumed he was having too much fun in Alaska to keep up with his blog ;-).

Some good stuff. Posted today:

The Voxtrot song “Brother in Conflict” came on today. The last line of the song caught my attention. Ramesh Srivastava sings — screams, really, several times: “I had to lose my idols to find my voice/ lose my idols to find my voice/ lose my idols/ to find my voice.” Appropriate for someone who channeled Morrissey in early songs.

It reminded me of the Bob Dylan song/spoken word piece “Last Thoughts of Woody Guthrie.” Dylan performed this at New York Town Hall on April 12, 1963.

It’s a eulogy, but not for Guthrie, who was still alive at this point. Dylan obvious owed a great deal of his early work to Guthrie. This was Dylan saying goodbye to that influence and moving on to something new.

Read the rest.

Nolan Ryan named new Rangers’ President

Nolan Ryan

This just in from Dallasblog.com

The Texas Rangers have hired Hall-of-Famer Nolan Ryan to be their president. There will be a press conference to announce the move at 3pm today. But there is more to the story. … and while I’m something less than an enthusiastic Rangers fan, we’ve got our hands on that “more’’:

Larry Legend of our 75-Member Staff spearheads our digging up of some interesting and as-yet-unreleased aspects of the Nolan Ryan hire. …

1) Hicks went to Ryan out of desperation because he has been getting hammered publicly.
2) Ryan might be getting a piece of the Rangers in this deal.
3) And this is the BEST and most significant thing: Nolan Ryan will be assuming COMPLETE CONTROL of the Texas Rangers franchise, meaning he is to run BOTH the business side AND the BASEBALL side.

There’s hope yet!
