Video: Huckabee’s Obama Gun “Joke” at the NRA Convention

Mike Huckabee

Perhaps when this photograph was taken, Mike Huckabee was looking into his future, that awful day, May 16, 2008, when he would make that awful “joke” about someone aiming a gun at Barack Obama, and the NRA would probably wish they’d never invited this awful “advocate.”

During a speech before the National Rifle Association convention Friday afternoon in Louisville, Kentucky, former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee — who has endorsed presumptive GOP nominee John McCain — joked that an unexpected offstage noise was Democrat Barack Obama looking to avoid a gunman.

“That was Barack Obama, he just tripped off a chair, he’s getting ready to speak,” said the former Arkansas governor, to audience laughter. “Somebody aimed a gun at him and he dove for the floor.”

Obama supports extending the assault weapons ban, limits on gun sales, and a national law against carrying concealed weapons, with exceptions for retired police and military personnel.
