Time to choose sides, people. You’re either with Mike Huckabee, or you’re with the “mental poison”!

From the AP:
While promoting his new book, Huckabee told People magazine, “I don’t understand how on one hand [the Obamas] can be such doting parents and so careful about the intake of everything – how much broccoli they eat and where they go to school … and yet they don’t see anything that might not be suitable” in the lyrics and a Beyoncé choreography “best left for the privacy of her bedroom.”
Huckabee described the Grammy Award-winning Beyoncé in his book as “mental poison.”
I'm old enough to recall when Huckabee distinguished himself by seeming like a social conservative who *wasn't* just angry at pop culture.

Yeah, well, he’s grown a lot since then. He’s come to realize a few things. Namely that he’s of no use to anyone.

Huckabee really is a dead ringer for Abe Simpson. Also this guy:

Now that he's anti-Beyonce, Mike Huckabee will continue his savvy political maneuvering by condemning ice cream, 3 day weekends and pizza.

A neat thing for Mike Huckabee to do would be to shut his drawling pie hole. #KruiserFeelings

Huck, you shoulda put a sock in it.

Update:
It’s worth noting that Huckabee isn’t exactly in a position to criticize the Obama’s over Beyoncé, not just because he’s annoying, but also because he himself has dabbled in what he might call “mental poison.”

Huckabee saying odd things. May have case of cat scratch fever.
