I love it. Every time some new big outrage rips through the nation, politicians take to the airwaves to whip it out and see who has the biggest. Take Mike Huckabee for example:

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee says execution is the appropriate punishment for the leaker who provided thousands of State Department documents to the website WikiLeaks.

“Whoever in our government leaked that information is guilty of treason, and I think anything less than execution is too kind a penalty,” Huckabee, a likely presidential candidate, told reporters Monday during a stop at The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation & Library to sign copies of his new children’s book, “Can’t Wait Till Christmas!

BooYah! Let’s talk about killing people while signing the children’s Christmas book we just authored. Mike Huckabee is so full of Christiany-goodness that it just hurts.

But I can’t let this end here. Instead I have an urge to jump into the mix and come up with my own punishment for the leaker. Maybe execution is to good for this guy? How about something with a little more creative and a lot more devious. Perhaps an appropriate punishment would be to place the leaker as the tail end of the Human Centipede?

Things aren't looking good for Huckaboner:

Battling to stay competitive after his weekend loss in South Carolina, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee is taking new steps to save money, including no longer scheduling planes and buses for journalists trying to cover his presidential campaign.

Huckabee said he will continue to campaign in Florida on a shoestring budget, but added that he may pull out of the state before its Jan. 29 Republican primary if his prospects look dim.

South Carolina was Huckabee's last real chance to become the front runner. Now that that's over, he doesn't have any real chance to take the lead. His only hope is to keep enough money to make it to the convention.
