Huckabee said: "I almost wish that there would be..."

How on earth do you get from someone using a popular turn of phrase to him actually wanting to go about doing it?

It's the equivalent of Dawkins saying "Some days I really want to tie creationists up and force them to look at all the evidence at gun point."

It's a turn of phrase; it doesn't literally mean he wants to go and do it.

...and before anyone starts responding to me: yes, I know Huckabee is a fruit loop, I don't like him either, but try to be civil and actually present what he said as what he said, not some twisted nonsense.

Great point Adrian. I am completely wrong about him. Maybe I should vote for him for president so he can put his neo-con libertarian views in to practice. Surely he would never abuse his power of president. richard Dawkins must be trying to run for president of US as well, huh? [/sarcasm]
