Mike Huckabee Back Peddles On Natalie Portman Comments!


I knew this was gonna happen, but "we don't believe you...you need more people":
“Natalie is an extraordinary actor, very deserving of her recent Oscar and I am glad she will marry her baby’s father [Benjamin Millepied]. However, contrary to what the Hollywood media reported, I did not ’slam’ or ‘attack’ Natalie Portman, nor did I criticize the hardworking single mothers in our country.”

“My comments were about the statistical reality that most single moms are very poor, under-educated, can’t get a job, and if it weren’t for government assistance, their kids would be starving to death. That’s the story that we’re not seeing, and it’s unfortunate that society often glorifies and glamorizes the idea of having children out of wedlock.”
So actually you're sticking by what you've said but tried to soften the tone because of all the back lash you've gotten? Typical of a Republican!

And word to the wise, Huckabee...not only single moms rely on the government for help. There are MILLIONS of Americans who have lost their jobs due to the economy that rely on public assistance! HOW IGNORANT!

Stop putting your foot in your mouth, old man!
