You could be right. I dunno. I don't think I have ever spent more than 3 or 4 seconds, at a time, listening to her music. (Long enough to change the station.)
I don't NOT listen to Beyonce because of her "filth," as you say. I don't listen to her because she sucks. When I have the unfortunate occurrence of seeing her on television or whatever, it makes me want to take a bath. She gives the appearance, to me, as someone who is just "nasty." Someone who spends all day doing make-up, in front of a mirror, but doesn't take the time to wash her ass. You know the type.
Honestly, criticizing Beyonce's music is enough for him to lose my vote. With all the issues in the world, you focus on Beyoncé's music?Mike Huckabee has called Beyonce's music "mental poison." Is he right?

I use the term filthy, not because of sexual innuendo, but because it's soul-sucking mediocrity.
I have a cousin turned RINO (I thought I was bad) who found a video of Mike Huckabee performing a raunchy rated x song with a guest on his former TV show. Smh. Lesson learned...again: in politics right and wrong are defined by who you ask and which side are you on (or perceived to be on) compared to the one asked--and people are not committed to their principles, they're committed to their political team.
In the Governor's defense it's entirely possible he had no idea what the song was really about as in fairness it was loaded with double entendre and veiled terminology with words that are sometimes used as a nickname for cats. The question then becomes is the Governor really that naive and honestly thought he was rocking out with a genuine pet lover about his love for cats? Romney, maybe. Huckabee surprises me but to give him the benefit of the doubt, maybe.
Oh no, the GOP would lose the Beyonce fan base IF that ever happened.
ok time for a little rantI love "Put a Ring On It" but was pretty dismayed when little girls began imitating her raunchy video dance moves. Not cute on a 5-year old. I don't think she's an inspirational role model for "wholesomeness" at all, even if she's a great business success, and she is.
Is that so? Amazing. Perhaps he understood, but thought it to be amusing humor and thus he could get some brownie political points in by being seen to be a likable guy.
Regardless, to return to an earlier theme, we are all a hair's breath away from being exposed for what we really are. I say that as someone who has experienced it personally, and thus I hope that others will listen and learn from my mistakes. It is like a thief that comes in the night that the real tests come. We will not be aware, but it will sneak upon us. That is how the tests come in the real war. Do not think that what happened to Bill Clinton cannot happen to us. We should not gloat. Rather we should humbly ask for mercy that we not fall victim to temptation and that the Almighty One deliver us from evil. If we are to proud too do that, there is no way. It is simply not possible. Perhaps some will hear. But I tell you truthfully, friend and foe alike, what I have said is for the benefit of all. Please, learn from my mistakes.
So true and thanks for the word of caution.
I don't think Gov. Huckabee is given to a lifestyle the song he helped perform depicts. I do however think, like almost all strong politician types I've observed tend to be keenly aware are troubled by the "problems" with those they see as political foes very often based in genuine concern. Yet the same exact people are blinded by similar and even identical problems when it originates with their political team. Beyoncé is an Obama supporter. Ted Nugent is an Obama critic. Because if this, the two are judged by two entirely different standards and I truly believe Gov. Huckabee was operating from a place of heart-felt honesty. He's genuinely concerned about the decline in values in the culture but he honestly didn't notice the moral problems with Nugent's lyrics and even played bass on the song when Nugent performed in concert on his tv show. Why? Political types see right and wrong though a political lens and it's not intentional much of the time. Even after it's brought to their attention, I believe any efforts to maintain their positions in light of a blatant double standard, which I've seen too many times to count, is about saving face by sticking to their original position and not an attempt to be deliberately unfair.. Btw: I voted for Huckabee in 2008.
Huckabee Smuckabee, he is still entitled to his opinions. He is right though, how many parents are paying attention to lyrics, some of them are quite interesting. Using Beyonce as an example is perhaps distracting from the point he is trying to make. Thoughts on that?
It just means he's oldMike Huckabee has called Beyonce's music "mental poison." Is he right?
