Huckabee: Anybody with IQ above Broccoli, knows I am a Conservative
Fox News ^ | 1-17-2008 | by Serafin Gomez

Charleston, SC-

Last night at the Citadel, the historic southern military school located here in Charleston, GOP presidential aspirant Mike Huckabee positioned himself in defense battle mode, warning the crowd of 400 supporters about the barrage of attacks from his enemy entities, like the Club for Growth, that are questioning his conservative credentials. Huckabee defended his record.

“Folks, I don’t know what you are going to hear, about that I’m not a conservative, but when you cut taxes, and you increase the per capita income, you improved the schools, and you rebuild the roads, and you preserve the national resources, and you streamline government, your government grows at a rate that is half that of the average of all states,” Huckabee said, his voice rising. “Call it anything you want to, but anybody with an I.Q. above broccoli calls that conservative, rock-solid, kind of leadership.”

He’s a Christian liberal and there are a lot of them IMO.
Christian does NOT have to equal Conservative.

Governor - I have an IQ well above broccoli - I’d be happy to take any test you care to propose to certify me as such - I think I am well into the carrot or perhaps even sweet potato range.

You, sir, are not a conservative.
Now stop trying to be funny, back up your statements, give me a call.

“Call it anything you want to, but anybody with an I.Q. above broccoli calls that conservative..."

I never did have any interest in voting for someone who insults me.

Sorry, Huck, I'll pass the buck...to someone else!

If you have to keep telling people you are a conservative, there must not be much evidence that demonstrates that you are.

Words alone don't make it so.

Back in the 70’s I, ugh, voted for Carter cause he seemed like such a regular guy. That regular guy stuff doesn’t do it for me anymore.

At least Carter seemed like a nice person. I don’t know why but every time I read something that came out of Huckle’s mouth the word ‘jerk’ comes to mind.

(Carter was a jerk too but it took him a while to show his true colors.)

“Thursday, January 17, 2008 The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows Mike Huckabee on top in the race for the Republican Presidential Nomination. It’s Huckabee 23%, John McCain 20%, Mitt Romney 18%, Fred Thompson 12%, and Rudy Giuliani 11%. Ron Paul attracts 2% support (see recent daily numbers).”

“Among conservatives, Huckabee attracts 27% and Romney is second with 19%. Among moderates, McCain leads with 29% and Romney is second with 18%.”

Among conservatives Huckabee attracts 27%. Well it sounds like the voters see him as conservative.........
