Lancaster predicts multiple marriages for Huckabee

In a previous post, The City Wire officially proclaimed Bob Lancaster the funniest columnist in Arkansas. As further proof of our proclamation, Lancaster has issued his predictions for 2009.

Lancaster, as we’ve noted before, is of the liberal bent in his politics, but funny is funny no matter your point on the political spectrum. To wit, his predictions for 2009 include:

• "The first big jackpot winner in the Arkansas lottery is one of the Waltons."

• "Citing three Old Testament sanctity-of-marriage passages that leave him no choice, Mike Huckabee announces on his TV talk show that he has agreed to take an unspecified number of concubines. He shudders to think what will happen when the missus finds out. He supposes it might prove to be a pow-zoom case, as with the Kramdens, with her providing the pow and him the zoom. And sure enough."

• "A 19th Duggar young’un debuts by year’s end. A Nance Grace bombshell discloses that the ultimate Duggar goal is to qualify the household as its own congressional district. Not out of the question."

• "The Rapture occurs in April. Those of us left behind don’t know what we’re missing, but we have more elbow room – not a bad tradeoff."
