K-Lo,Funny you should mention Ahmadinejad and Huckabee together. If you scroll down through the comments on the lesbian with the crush on Ahmadinejad that you linked to earlier, you’ll find exactly that. A kos reader comparing Huckabee and Ahmadinejad. Both repressive, dangerous, religious madmen, you know. And you’re right, God help us if this is what is taken seriously by the democratic party.

Sure enough:

(Of course, as this diary shows, the one big problem with the comparison is that Bush is not nearly as smart as Ahmedinejad. Coincidentally, in recent weeks I had considered that the Iranian President is more of a Huckabee, given the existence of actual intellect as well as populist election rhetoric in their election campaigns.)
