Huckabee: Anybody with IQ above Broccoli, knows I am a Conservative

Huck just can’t avoid the insults and distractions, kind of like his supporters.

INSULTS, THE MAINSTAY OF THE KENNEDY WING OF THE GOP!

I was listening to Laura Ingraham talking with Center for Immigration Studies Mark Krikorian yesterday . Huckabee claims Krikorian devised his ‘immigration’ policy for him. Mark said he had been contacted by several people and wrote up a brief ‘what had to be done list’, by no means a complete policy that was published some time ago.

Huckabee simply took that article, added little to it and implied Mark and Huck worked out this new ‘policy’. Mark has never worked with or endorsed Huck. Never. His supporters made it sound like CIS had worked with him on this and thereby endorsed him for Pres.

Krikorian says, [Well, at least he credited me with writing it]

Arkansas Mike Huckabee, Republican Legislature: Democratic Final-Term Grade: F Final Overall Grade: D

Thanks to a final term grade of F, Huckabee earns an overall grade of D for his entire governorship. Like many Republicans, his grades dropped the longer he stayed in office. In his first few years, he fought hard for a sweeping $70 million tax cut package that was the first broad-based tax cut in the state in more than 20 years. He even signed a bill to cut the state’s 6 percent capital gains tax—a significant progrowth accomplishment.

But nine days after being reelected in 2002, he proposed a sales tax increase to cover a budget deficit caused partly by large spending increases that he proposed and approved, including an expansion in Medicare eligibility that Huckabee made a centerpiece of his 1997 agenda. He agreed to a 3 percent income tax “surcharge” and a 25-cent cigarette tax increase. In response to a court order to increase spending on education, Huckabee proposed another sales tax increase. Huckabee wants to run for the GOP presidential nomination next year. He’s already been hailed as a viable big-government conservative candidate by some. That seems about right: Huckabee’s leadership has left taxpayers in Arkansas much worse off.

Apparently the good folks in Arkansas had a rough time of it with Mike Huckabee: Big Government Conservative.

Huckabee was in line with these governors:

Montana Brian Schweitzer (D)* 47 F Alabama Bob Riley (R) 47 F Washington Christine Gregoire (D)* 47 F Arkansas Mike Huckabee (R) 46 F Nevada Kenny Guinn (R) 46 F Delaware Ruth Ann Minner (D)* 44 F North Carolina Michael Easley (D)* 44 F Arizona Janet Napolitano (D) 43 F Louisiana Kathleen Blanco (D)* 43 F Ohio Bob Taft (R) 53 C Kentucky Ernie Fletcher (R) 53 C Maryland Robert Ehrlich (R) 53 C Vermont James Douglas (R) 53 C Michigan Jennifer Granholm (D) 53 C

Who was he talking to ? The DNC?...........

[Cailleach]

glad I’m not the only one who started singing about broccoli to myself. :P

[tx_eggman]

anybody with an I.Q. above broccoli calls that conservative

To paraphrase Will Rogers about Calvin Coolidge:

Ol' huck don't say much ... but when he does, he don't say much

[rintense]

Rintense: Anybody who fries squirrel in a popcorn popper has an IQ lower than broccoli.

[longtermmemmory]

DEEDS not TITLES

A leftist liberal by any other name would stink just as much.

Christian does NOT have to equal Conservative.

I am a recently saved heathen, and I've been thinking about this. If you follow the tenants of the Bible, you are decidedly NOT a liberal; at least in the modern American political conotation. I am no theological scholar; I can read though. Living a Christian life leads to leading a "conservative" life. You can not be a social liberal (excepting illegal immigration, abortion, the welfare state, or any combination there of) and consider yourself a biblical Christian.

Just my 2c

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Sorry, Mike, but I'll have to side with the Broccoli on this one.

[DeLaine]

Does he mean Albert? And would that be before he died, or after??

Huckabee: Anybody with IQ above Broccoli, knows I am a Conservative

If that's case, gubner, then everyone voting should be required to take and IQ test.

[CCCnative]

anybody with an I.Q. above broccoli calls that conservative
-- should be --
anybody with an I.Q. of broccoli calls that conservative

[seekthetruth]

So now we know that since the NEA from New Hampshire endorsed Huckabee, they have IQ’s below that of broccoli since they believe Huck is a LIBERAL!

[McGruff]

This is a despicable attack on the Bush 41 administration.

I do not like broccoli. And I haven't liked it since I was a little kid and my mother made me eat it. And I'm President of the United States and I'm not going to eat any more broccoli.

[day10]

LMAO!! I know for darn sure I have an IQ 4 or 5 times his....

[jrooney]

So the sarcastic smart ass opens his pie hole again to insult others.

[day10]

In my dreams......

[silverleaf]

Broccoli rights groups have denounced Huckabee’s anti veg-ist comments and pointed out that brussels spouts have MUCH lower IQ’s.

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

Hey, we’ve seen you picture.... drool....

[libbylu]
