Mike Huckabee: If his lips are moving, he's lying

Lying Mike HuckabeeI've always appreciated Ronald Reagan's dictum that Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican, but I lack The Gipper's forbearance when it comes to the more extreme of the Republicans in Name Only and there is no more outlandish RINO than Lying Mike Huckabee. This unprincipled huckster is now spinning tall tales like crazy trying to cover his tracks in the Republican presidential primaries, but no amount of lies can obscure his record.

Crime:




Illegal aliens:


Taxes:

Honesty:
  • Huck handles the party bucks -"In 2000, Huckabee insisted on controlling the state party's separate Victory Committee, but the committee's finances were so poorly handled that a Federal Election Commission investigation resulted in the largest fine ever handed down by the FEC to a state party."

Party Loyalty:

Foreign policy:

  • This has to be the canonical Huckabee train wreck. When he's not saying that the USA should apologize for the death of Benazir Bhutto or wanting to sing Kumbaya with the Iranian whackos, he is accusing President Bush having a bunker mentality. The best part is his claim that his foreign policy advisers include goofy NY Times columnist Thomas Friedman (Huckabee claims to have read his latest book) and better choices Richard Allen, and John Bolton. The only problem is that Allen and Bolton deny ever talking with him. Then there was purported adviser Frank Gaffney with whom Huckabee had actually spoken once. Check out his assessment of the Huckster which makes him sound like a not-too-bright kid..

Get off the stage Mike, you're stinking out the joint. Or better yet, see if Jimmy Carter needs an assistant down at his museum.
