Has anyone checked how much money Tyson foods has contributed to the HUCKSTER??

In October 2006, a federal judge granted class-action status to a lawsuit brought by Tyson employees who allege that Tyson’s practice of hiring illegal immigrants depresses wages 10-30%. The suit further contends that the company violated federal racketeering laws by conspiring with National Council of La Raza and League of United Latin American Countries not to question the employment applications of anyone with a Hispanic surname.
Mike Huckabee: In the words of those conservatives who know him best
Here are some recent statements on the character and background of recent conservative favorite Mike Huckabee:
Phyllis Schlafly, president of Eagle Forum:
“He destroyed the conservative movement in Arkansas, and left the Republican Party a shambles ... Yet some of the same evangelicals who sold us on George W. Bush as a ‘compassionate conservative’ are now trying to sell us on Mike Huckabee.”
Betsy Hagan, Arkansas director of the Eagle Forum and a key backer of his early runs for office:
“He was pro-life and pro-gun, but otherwise a liberal ... Just like Bill Clinton he will charm you, but don’t be surprised if he takes a completely different turn in office.”
Blant Hurt, former columnist for Arkansas Business magazine:
“He has zero intellectual underpinnings in the conservative movement ... He’s hostile to free trade, hiked sales and grocery taxes, backed sales taxes on Internet purchases, and presided over state spending going up more than twice the inflation rate.”
Paul Pressler, former Texas judge and conservative member of the Southern Baptist Convention (of which Huckabee is a minister and former head):
“I know of no conservative he appointed while he headed the Arkansas Baptist Convention.”
Conservative Wall Street Journal columnist John Fund:
“Mr. Huckabee was the only GOP candidate to refuse to endorse President Bush’s veto of the Democrats’ bill to vastly expand the Schip health-care program. Only he and John McCain have endorsed the discredited cap-and-trade system to limit global-warming emissions that has proved a fiasco in Europe.”
Let us show them we are really researching, really digging, and they cannot pull this crap on us. Not in this day and age of online research and instant intel collection.
Let us smoke these RINOS out one by one and expose their money flows to counteract their slick wordsmithing.

That was double the rate for white, non-Hispanic mothers in the county. The statistics mirror national trends that have the attention of advocates of all persuasions. Immigration critics warn of looming consequences, from persistent poverty to welfare dependency. The Bush administration also makes the connection: Preventing out-of wedlock pregnancies is a key to its $ 100 million “healthy marriage” strategy for curbing welfare. But in Benton County, the state’s No. 1 home for Hispanic immigrants, health and welfare officials... |

This is what it has come down to. We The People have to wade through the candidates foisted upon us by both parties and try to figure out which ones are lying the least. Simultaneously, we must suffer the lying, the demonization and the canonization the media does in order to get the most liberal candidate elected. It's disgusting.
