free trade nonsense? Free trade is the basics of free market economics. (btw, I think this is a great article on the huckster)
Free trade is non -existent. If we are putting our manufacturer’s at a disadvantage, which we most certainly are, via idiotic arrangements we agreed to through the WTO, than it is not only not free, it is a usurpation of our sovereignty. It is the worst of all scenarios.
GWB tried to partially level the playing field by offering tax rebates to our exporters, only to have the WTO rule them illegal and the wusses that we are, they were rescinded.
Thanks for this thread and

And don't forget Dumond case revisited - A reminder of Huckabee's role in his freedom

Tanner’s book the “Leviathan on the Right” was good. Bottom line is Huck should be running as a Democrat.
Being pro-life and believing in Jesus as your Lord and Savior is wonderful. It doesn’t make you a conservative. Heck, he’s to the left of every blue dog Democrat in Congress.
As far as evangelicals leaving the party, I predict that most of them will still support the GOP ticket regardless unless Rudy is on it, so Huckabee doesn't own these votes.
ping for an important read
They are in the pickle they are in because they have moved away from Reaganism. That is why I support the one guy who is a tried and true Reaganite. Thompson comes next, but his record is sketchier, as I have pointed out.
Mitt talks a good game most of the time, but his global warming nonsense today is yet another example of his misplaced do-goodism.
Wait till someone filches some of his old sermons and publishes them...what we've learned so far will be like the gentle rain from heaven in comparison.
