Jesus, Art Laffer engineered reaganomics and thinks the exact same way as the club for growth. You can not seperated the Club for Growth and Reagan. They shared the excat same philosophy on taxes. The spokesman should read a little history.
From Dick Morris's article 'Mike Huckabee is a Fiscal Conservative':
A recent column by Bob Novak excoriated Huckabee for a "47 percent increase in state tax burden." But during Huckabee's years in office, total state tax burden — all 50 states combined — rose by twice as much: 98 percent, increasing from $743 billion in 1993 to $1.47 trillion in 2005.
In Arkansas, the income tax when he took office was 1 percent for the poorest taxpayers and 7 percent for the richest, exactly where it stood when he left the statehouse 11 years later. But, in the interim, he doubled the standard deduction and the child care credit, repealed capital gains taxes for home sales, lowered the capital gains rate, expanded the homestead exemption and set up tax-free savings accounts for medical care and college tuition.
Most impressively, when he had to pass an income tax surcharge amid the drop in revenues after Sept. 11, 2001, he repealed it three years later when he didn't need it any longer.
He raised the sales tax one cent in 11 years and did that only after the courts ordered him to do so. (He also got voter approval for a one-eighth-of-one-cent hike for parks and recreation.)
Mike Huckabee is a lying weasel. Sure, he'd have to be some measure of a lying weasel to make it in presidential politics, but Huckabee lies with an artfulness that would make Dick Nixon envious, and probably has Bill Clinton convinced that it comes from something in Hope, Ark.'s water. He's so damn good at it.
Great Interview! Everyone knows that the Club For Growth is a politically paid for group, candidates hand them wads of cash and they produce their paid for attacks..I think Romney is funding the Club For Growth this year..
Go Mike Huckabee!! No one listens to the club for growth anyways!!
