Touch the Hand That Touched the Hand
Missing in Action? We Never Left!
Barak Obama has gotten a lot of mileage out of saying he doesn’t want to endlessly revisit the battles of the 90s.
Mick Huckabee is heading the other way, holding out hope we can re-fight the culture and other wars of the 60s, 70s and 80s. And we can win this time!
His embrace of Mansman Chuck Norris sends us whirling back to a bygone corner of the Reagan era, when the liberal Hollywood elite cranked out film after film based on the proposition that Vietnam held American prisoners after the war. They were the missing kids or sex trafficked of their day, always in our hearts, yet somehow not real.
Now Huckabee has found a splinter of the One True Cross to guide him back to the promised land. Grizzled hack veteran Ed Rollins is answering the call.
Rollins was there when Reagan rolled to victory in Grenada and reelection,
and he can make the magic happen again!
Let’s look back on Ed’s proud decades. Where’s he been all these years?
Managing KT McFarland [sister of Iran-Contra felon and Reagan National Security Advisor Robert McFarland] in her loss to the guy who got crushed in Hillary Clinton’s reelection.
Consorting with Lenora Fulani in the Ross Perot “movement.”
Running Katherine Harris’s failed Florida Senate campaign until he walked and denounced her.
Boasting of bribing New Jersey black ministers to suppress the vote, then claiming he made it up.
Claiming he was told the Reagan campaign got $10 million cash from Philippine Strongman Ferdinand Marcos [and has not denied it since].
Veteran Huckabee watcher John Brummett looks back at Rollins, The Troubled Years and concludes:
” In more recent times, Rollins has been failed or odd…Now he proclaims that he has one race left in him and that he will favor Our Boy Mike with it ..Huckabee loves redemption. As we know from his record: If you beg his pardon, he’s apt to grant it.
