Mike Huckabee Trashes Natalie Portman's Sinful Pregnancy
[There was a video here]
Crazy not-birther Mike Huckabee thinks Natalie Portman is corrupting America by having been "visibly pregnant" at the Oscars without being married. On Michael Medvedev's radio show, Medvedev talked about how "sending that kind of message is problematic." Huckabee agreed:
There aren't really a lot of single moms out there who are making millions of dollars every year for being in a movie," he said. "And I think it gives a distorted image. ... Most single moms are very poor, uneducated, can't get a job, and if it weren't for government assistance, their kids would be starving to death and never have health care. And that's the story that we're not seeing, and it's unfortunate that we glorify and glamorize the idea of out-of-wedlock children.
Yeah, why isn't Natalie Portman sleeping in a gutter somewhere, turning her big doe eyes up pitifully at every passing stranger, begging for government handouts and then giving birth to a sick baby, to be realistic? Doesn't she know what kind of message it sends to the youth of America, her not being super poor and miserable at the Oscars? What the kids don't realize is that if Portman hadn't become sinfully pregnant out of wedlock, God would have spared America from No Strings Attached.
Next time she wins an award, Portman should be wheeled out in a Modesty Box with eye-holes cut in it. To protect the children. [Media Matters]
