Means Huckabee is still a Freeper. He knows there are a bunch of Freepers who oppose free enterprise Toll Roads yet continue to call themselves conservatives. At the same time the exact same people are still angry with The Huck for fixing Arkansas public roads.

So, which is it guys ~ public roads are bad but so are private roads?

Or, is it the other way around.

The Huck also was governor of one of the poorest states in the country. The only way you could get a good educaion there was to go somewhere else ~ even if your folks were rich ~ you had to leave.

He reordered taxing priorities, improved the schools and now at least the Arkansas kids, when they move somewhere else, might still offend our sensibilities with their snaggletooth smiles but doggone it they can read.

Not a bad job ~ just doing what everybody else had already done!

And, best of all, the state no longer had to sell prisoners' blood to Canada's socialist health care system, but why is it I get the feeling so many of The Huck's detractors wanted that practice continued. Hmmmm ~ I sniff some Socialists infiltrating our board.

No one is denigrating Mr. Huckabee’s advances in Arkansas. I understand why taxes had to be raised and roads built. I think it is unfair to criticize him for what absolutely had to be done to bring Arkansas into the 20th century. I disagree with his bringing religion back into the realm of the politic. That was beyond the pale and better left unsaid. By the same token, I don’t think raising taxes was the route to go on people who were struggling to feed their families. Arkansas is a beautiful state. There was certainly no reason not to locate businesses there. I hear it’s a going “Jesse” now, and that’s commendable. I’m just not sure Mike is any better than the last guy from “Hope” as far as qualifications to govern are concerned. He’s light years better morally-speaking.

You don’t need much money to teach a kid how to read, write and do arithmetic - unless you are endorsed by the NEA and buy into all the socialist claptrap they decree necessary.
