The article has an interesting perspective on why Arkansas needed more tax-based infrastructure...something that FReepers who keep accusing Huck of being a tax & spend liberal never bother to mention.

I don't think this article gives us anything different (really) to review him on immigration-wise. But I'd be interested in hearing from the Fredheads how it is that their candidate has not promised to raise taxes, but Huck has, yet Huck is hit up on that issue & Fred isn't.

I think it’s because of the 180-degree turns The Huckster is noted for. They prove him to be disingenuous on any of his words.

His “pledges” - even if “followed” - will be nuanced to the point they have no shred of original intent left in them, but will otherwise be true to the “letter” of the word.

The Huckster’s “no amnesty” pledge could, due to his character, grant immediate citizenship to the illegals, but never be called an “amnesty program.” His tax pledge will be no more real than his stance that he reduced taxes more than raised them during his time in office (a lie he refused to fully counter Thompson on).

The Huckster’s words are worth only the air with which they were originally expressed and nothing more.

Trust him no farther than you can throw him.
