Huck's Complaint

Calling The Huckster a Republican is, of course, accurate. Calling him a conservative is NOT. Huckabee's conservatism is limited to a narrow range of social issues. On economic issues and other things he is moderate to liberal. While he was a presidential candidate, some econimic issue conservatives took to calling him a ''Christian socialist''. The term one has been hearing for him in conservative circles more recently is ''pro-life statist''.

Huckabee has never been in the Tea Party wing of the GOP. If you look at his numerous endorsements in the primaries this year, they have all been for the establishment candidates, NOT the conservatives. Comparing him to Reagan is particularly inappropriate in that the organization carrying the torch for Reagan's philosophy these days, the Club for Growth has been battling Huckabee with dueling endorsements constatnly this year. If there is an anti-Reagan in the GOP today, it is Mike Huckabee. The Huckster's antics and his endorsements are causing many Tea Party economic issue oriented Republicans to lose interest in the social issues. The sooner Huckabee just disappears from politics the better. I wish Fox would pull the plug on him.

One place he has poked his extremely unwelcome nose to back the establishment against the conservatives is NC's 8th congressional district runoff, where he is backing beltway establishment lapdog Richard Hudson against Tea Party conservative Scott Keadle. The natioanl conservative groups are all behind Keadle because pathetic lapdog and beltway careerist Hudson would be nothing but a rubberstamp for the Washington establishment.

Have you looked in the mirror lately? Your own party is very bit as mean and nasty and vicious as the worst of the Republicans. Neither party's establishment cares one whit for things like truth or honor, both parties are run by bloody-minded ideologues who would lie, cheat, or steal to win.

The sad thing is Obama had a chance to turn things around. He was a fresh face in American politics who came along just as the country was desperate to believe in a 'good guy' who could change the poisonous paradigm. The people liked him and trusted him.

But he couldn't deliver on anything, not the wars, not Gitmo, not transparency, and especially not on the economy. Having won as a pragmatic centrist, he governed as the radical leftist he really is, with predictable results. The car is stuck right there in the same ditch he promised us he could get it out of. And at every turn, after every failure, his knee-jerk response was to blame the other party--nothing was ever his fault, it was those evil Republicans, or those evil bankers, or those
evil insurance companies. The guy who sold us all on a campaign of hope and change turned out to be the epitome of the same old thing.

And now he has nothing left to sell us but more lies. His campaign is already spending three times what Romney is spending on media (while taking in less), and about. 75% of it is negative. Fat times for consultants like Gary, foul items for America.
