Seems the author has blown this way out of proportion, it's just a bad joke. In what way is it "terribly unethical?" Is that "unethical" sort of as in the way the author included a bunch of old photos of Huckabee before he lost weight?

  This is not Saturday Night Live. It was said at an NRA meeting, during a time when Obama already has death threats and a Secret Service Detail. I understand it was meant as a joke, but it was in bad taste.

Why quote Huckabee? He's a has been anyway, isn't he? I agree the fat pics were sort of tacky unethical.

Considering the nature of the Secret Service work, and the fact the Senator Obama has Secret Service following him due to death threats, this bad joke was tasteless and unethical. The picture chosen (yes, the fat picture) is not unethical. It parallels the changes that this man has gone through. From fat to thin, from minister to politician, from ethical to tasteless. Especially in an environment like an NRA Conference, it is not wise or classy to joke about a Presidential candidate getting shot.
