club4growth is a mercenary corp. if huck had millions they would be lying about his opponents. mike is a strong conservative. he lowered taxes in ark.
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 But, in the interim, he doubled the standard deduction and the child care credit, repealed capital gains taxes for home sales, lowered the capital gains rate, expanded the homestead exemption and set up tax-free savings accounts for medical care and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Most impressively, when he had to pass an income tax surcharge amid the drop in revenues after Sept. 11, 2001, he repealed it three years later when he didn't need it any longer.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.)
CFG Why are you tearing down the most conservative presidential candidate. This man is right for our country at this time. This interview proves it. I don't know about you but I like roads and jobs even if that means a change in the way taxes are collected.
Well, that interview should put to rest any and all bogus concerns of Mike's tax record. He's a conservative- socially and fiscally, and the truth of his record shows that.
Mike was Governor of a State that had been governed by a Democratic congress since emancipation;passed the Homestead Property tax plan;improved the school system that Hillary Clinton destroyed;improved roads ranking of 49th in the USA to 27th;lowered taxes 94 times;first broad tax cut ever in the History of Arkansa;platform includes the Fair Tax;in support of the co-sponsored by 67 Congressman of the fair tax plan,the best minds in America have created greatest idea since the Constitution.

Huckabee worships big government almost as much as he enjoys the sound of his oily preacher's voice.

I agree with the Club. Huckabee will not receive my vote in the primary, or the general.

Exactly. What difference does it make that Huckabee decreased taxes 90 times if he increased the overall tax burden by 47%?
