How Many Times has Huckabee Fibbed about his Gas Tax?

[Serafinos]

You road program was a TAX RAISE which equals GAS TAX which equals we the people did NOT vote for it. ZERO VOTED - ZERO WANTED IT - ZERO!

Huck - you lost in 2008 primaries. You will lose again if you try running.

You also played political games to keep Romney out, with McSame.

KEEP OUT OF POLITICS -- you are a PROGRESSIVE!

[ImInCommand]

@Serafinos Huckabee, McCain and Romney are all huge-government hypocrites.

We need them all out.

[Serafinos]

@ImInCommand Agree, although, in our economic disaster, Romney does have a comforting strength about him on that subject... but in the end... you're correct.

Looks like there are too many idiots in AZ that refuse to wake up and are going to shove McCain back in our faces for another 4 years. PRAYING HARD for a different outcome!!!

:D

[ImInCommand]

@Serafinos Hayworth has a good shot....I'm probably voting for him. Anyone to beat McCain.

McCain, Huckabee, Romney, Giuliani, Palin..................hate them all just as much as obama.

[nrobyar]

Club for Growth was paid $550,000 by Romney supporters to distort and smear Gov. Huckabee's record. THIS is why there is anomosity between Romney and Huckabee supporters. If Romney would have played fair, there would have been no discord!! Huckabee is the way to go in 2012!!!!

[tampabaydevilrays]

People can't simply vote for this guy just for his good feelness. Although I'm not slamming GWB (some of what he's done has been good), this guy will be a george bush on steroids with tons more spent on things we don't need. VOTE MCCAIN!

[soultaker76]

Huckabee is McCain's little puppy. I won't vote for either of them. Those two smile at each other and complement each other so much during the debates that they should star in a sequel to Brokeback Mountain.

[tampabaydevilrays]

They are incredibly different! Where do you come from? Canada? John McCain is not half as bad in fiscal spending, supports WORTHWILE CAUSES in foreign policy, has an effective economic policy (not a 100 percent isolationist freak) and has great experience and good backup. I'm not sure who you're going to vote for...but McCain's my man

[soultaker76]

Don't confuse me with one of the Ron Paul retards. I'm for Romney personally.  Just watch those two in the debates. Huckabee in the fox debate was all like 'I've met McCain's mother' and stuff.

[sunflowertexan]

Yea - Huckabaloo's going down. . .

[ScottJ5860]

So Huckabee goes on nationwide TV over and over again and lies through his teeth about a gas tax hike and yet one must go on You Tube to get the truth. What ever.

[ducksung]

Wayne Dumond did not get out of prison early.

His parole was blocked by local politics and the State Police numerous times after he became eligible. A lot of people thought he deserved a second chance and I was one of them. His crimes after release are inexplicable.

[MexicansforMike]

I know he is soft on crime letting people that rape and murder women out of prison early and I know he loves to raise taxes but I still love his policy on undocument people and amnasty so he still has my vote Huckabee all the way

[sizzlepuss7]

No, he's not soft on anything but violent crime. He wants to make smoking illegal, and releases murderers to make room to punish 'immoral' pot smokers for their choice of venue of pursuit of happiness. The pursuit of happiness is an INALIENABLE right. Rehab didn't work for me. Scuze me while I roll a fatty.

[soultaker76]

What if I liked killing people? Wouldn't that be my pursuit of happiness? Lay of the drugs, they're affecting your brain.

[mutedmajority]

Maybe some drugs would help you. You obviously can not grasp my advanced statement. I even included murders as the ones getting out of jail to make room for "Non violent" pursuers of happiness.

[soultaker76]

If you knew anything, multi-account dude (not sure what to call you), you'd know that most crime in this country is drug related. Including your violent crime. Put down the doobie, brother and listen to the music.

[mutedmajority]

Prohibition gave you capone and the mafia, controlled substances act gives you the crypts and the bloods, and the pharma's dicks up your butt because your meds are availabe 1/100 of the price in mexico.

[mmcvety]

LOL- more smears from the same newspaper that had one of its reporters file corruption charges against him which were frivilous!!!! Club for Growth, start making vidoes that make you money so that you can pay off all those FEC fines that you have!!!! lol

[moveoverdotorg]

The fact that Huckabee supports the "fair" tax proves that he is not qualified to be President. He says "abolish the IRS" and gets big cheers. How does he make sure people are paying their sales taxes? There would have to be a new IRS that would be FAR worse than the current one. The new IRS would have to crack down on barter, etc.. the govt would be in your business 10 times more than it is now to make sure you aren't trading things outside of the oppressive tax system.

[Drahthaar422]

The CFG's just pissed off because Mike would enact the FairTax. Then, they couldn't attack anyone because there wouldn't be any tax increases.

[jaredjbrown]

he's a social conservative but fiscally liberal. when it comes down to it, a president has a lot more to do with fiscal policy than social policy. it's hard to believe he's getting away with a "conservative" label, just because he talks about God. i like God, too, but i deal with that in my personal life. For a president, i want someone fix our budget and run things better.

[CPatriot333]

This video is just about parsing Gov. Huckabee's words and nitpicking. This tax was specifically to improve the interstate highways which were in terrible shape. The legislature wanted it and the people wanted it, so Mike signed it. A related bond issue for further improvements was put to the people for a vote and passed with 80% support. A Governor who actually listens to the people, wow!

[tttar]

He wasn't lying. He signed it on April Fool's day. What's wrong with Arkansonians? Can't they take a joke?

[decay1861]

This is all about shameless self-promotion from the Club for Growth. Wall Street hates Huckabee because he would get rid of the tax system they wrote to benefit themselves. All those tax breaks they bought from Congress - gone when the income tax is replaced with the Fair Tax.

[BriansJoy]

I'm not sure about the tax breaks being gone. What about certain industries' products being taxed or not? Would their be a sales tax on Pharmaceuticals? No, people need their drugs.

[Leroyjustinb]

Bad year for Club 4 Growth. They lost the fifth district and about to lose Iowa and then the whole nation. Long live roads.

Do they realize without roads we would be vulnerable to terrorist. We need to be able to move our troops where they are need. Guess what Mike is not only stealing Ike's slogan he is just like Ike smart I like Mike

[Leroyjustinb]

I like roads which don't tear up my cars and I like Mike. It is amazing to see all this support for Mike even after Club 4 Growth has torn him down especially because the support is on C4G's channel.

[sdstatejacks]

The Club For Growth is no longer for the guys on Main Street, but for those on Wall Street. Huckabee has set his record straight. 80% of Arkansans approved of the Gas Tax. Get YOUR record straight, CFG. Huckabee in '08

[ProspectorSam]

I'd like to know more, jacks. Got a link to info about the 80% thing?

Ron's my president, but I wouldn't be much of a R3VOLutionary if I didn't want to learn what's what. :-)

RP 08 FTW

[jaywallace23]

sdstatejacks, I'm still undecided on who to vote. Could you send me the links about your claim? I'm starting to like Huckabee, but the video above affected me. Maybe your links can put me back on track...

[ammaroo1975]

Huckabee. What a piece of shit.

[travishenrichs]

Also, on globalism; yes, there is definitely more integration among countries now, however, you can't have these "globalists" meeting in private outside of public scrutiny.

This deletes any transparency that the government should possess, as they can make decisions with other countries without the peoples' knowledge let alone consent.

[travishenrichs]

There are no isolation tactics to getting out of Iraq. Militarily you can kill every single person in the country, but that doesn't mean that it's going to be any better than before.

Ron Paul is for non-intervention, trade with all; alliance with none. The real isolationism comes from placing sanctions on countries & inciting hatred among the rest of the world.

There is nothing revolutionary about the philosophy of non-entangling alliances, we need a restoration; not a revolution.

[travishenrichs]

Research Ron Paul ;)

George Bush ran on the same platform that you described in your post, however he didn't exactly live up to his word either. What makes you think another CFR globalist is going to be any different?

The things you listed are just talking points, not a promise, other candidates' voting records prove that.

[Kvltman]

Chuck Norris supports this dude.

[moveoverdotorg]

Huck as the Preacher in Chief?

His platform is beyond belief,

With fed sales tax

immigration that's lax

The economy goes back to sleep.
