Why has Mike Huckabee turned to something akin to the plague by some on FR?
FR postings | November 28, 2007 | Dane

It's amazing, Mike Huckabee is one of the few politicians who would give the time of day to FR,

Gov. Huckabee's Thank you Letter to FReeper

and yet by some on FR they in mindless hyperbolic posts basically compare him to the plague.

JMO, some FReepers prove the axioms of "fair weather friends" and "no good deed goes unpunished" and also "watch your back", very true.

Steve Deace afternoon drive-time host of a three-hour show on Iowa's biggest AM station WHO Des Moines promotes Huckabee above all others.

Deace is a self-described born-again Christian who admits to having spent much of his early life downloading porn from the internet.

Mike Huckabee is his personal project.

Let me explain it for you.

Huckabee is a liberal on nearly every issue. Most Freepers are conservative.

It has nothing to do with Huckabee’s band.

It seems a lot of the Freepers who really can’t stand him are from Arkansas

Huh Travis is from California.

Corsi has just about zero credibility. He writes this crap for mindless boobs who will start barking at the moon like Pavlov’s dog on queue, without any thought or critical analysis whatsoever.

If you’re going to do that you may as well vote for a man who has actually visited FR like Duncan Hunter has done.

Video of Huckabee Calling for Scholarships and In-State Tuition for Illegal Aliens (2005)
Arkansas Journal ^ | November 25, 2007 | Henry Rearden

Posted on 11/25/2007 10:12:50 PM MST by RebekahT

TRANSCRIPT OF VIDEO:

I’m also going to ask that we open financial aid for any student graduating from a high school in Arkansas. There’s something terribly unjust about a kid whose family came here looking for opportunity and that kid maybe has come, at the age of four, as happened in a school in El Dorado. And that student of hispanic descent, spent his entire career as a student in Arkansas public schools, from the age of four. Graduated from high school, one of the top kids in his class, but when he applied for financial aid, he wasn’t eligible for the various scholarships or grants because of his status — a status that he had no decision in and no control over.

Do we want to change fhe future for those kids? Then let’s give them the opportunity. Let’s not say that our doors are open but our opportunities are closed. Let’s open both our doors and our opportunities and create a whole new generation of kids who have the opportunity to be prosperous and to bring to their families a hope that they came here for.

= = =
JOYA’S COMMENTS:

Sounds warm and fuzzy nice the way he describes it. He says, ‘Do we want to change fhe future for those kids? Then let’s give them the opportunity. Let’s not say that our doors are open but our opportunities are closed. Let’s open both our doors and our opportunities and create a whole new generation of kids who have the opportunity to be prosperous and to bring to their families a hope that they came here for.’

Do I want to change the future for those kids? Not at the price of the sovereignty of the United States.

As someone [SoCalPol] said a couple days ago, if the Mexicans want to take over a government and change their status, let them take over THEIR OWN GOV’T IN MEXICO and change their status THERE.

Steps to reverse this mess are, at the very least,

BUILD THE WALL

NO AMNESTY

NO CITIZENSHIP FOR “ANCHOR” BABIES

VOTE EVERY ANTI-AMERICAN TRAITOR POLITICIAN OUT OF OFFICE

NO BENEFITS TO ILLEGALS EXCEPT A FREE RIDE BACK TO WHEREVER THEY’RE FROM.

and that's why you probably don't like me.

Oh, I don't know. I'm confident there are other reasons, but then I'm pretty upbeat.

What is amazing is how many anti-amnesty immigration are now magically all hucabee all the time.

FR can smell a RAT and huckabee fits the profile. Bill Clinton thumped a bible and still did not prevent him from wagging his finger to the public or posing on Esquire’s cover in an HA HA pose.

Huckabee is no different.

I have a lot of good friends who are great people. But I can’t think of one of them for which I would cast a vote for President.

In addition, I think we’ve had quite enough of Governors from Arkansas running the nation.

No kidding.

Just goes to show that with a little creativity, cheesecake can be made relevant to every thread. :-))

What was the topic again?

LOL! Well why didn't you show him out the door at the FR gatherings.

You all are amazing, in either backstabbing or just total ignorance.

JMO, it is a mixture of both.

I think the immigration issue was the watershed moment for many.

I know the history of Huckabee’s friendly relations with FR and respect his out going regard. But we have to ask ourselves, is fair weather freindship being applied to us?

When congratulations over the impeachment were offered and cordial relations followed, it was the Governor that knew us, not we him. If he didn’t know where conservatives stood on immigration and bridges to nowhere, I would be surprised.

I have McCain and Rudy to work against and Huckabee isn’t on that list yet, but I am very disheartened to see where he stands on the methods of controling illegal immigration.

I imagine others feel like me.

Wow, a guy posts unflattering facts about Huckabee and you call it doom and gloom.

I guess we could all just overlook it like it never existed, kind of like giving Hillary a new start.
