Good ole' Huckabee! Can pretty well count on him to be a squish when it comes to illegal aliens.

[Jane Long]

Gee...what FoxNews show host won't be on board with this "new and improved" crapola sandwich?

[Phosgood]

Sided with O Riley.

[OddLane]

I'm stuned!

Back to the Future.

[Windflier]

I listened to a few minutes of Huck’s radio show the other day. Predictably, he soon wound up praising Marco Rubio for his work on the amnesty treason bill.

Spit!

[Gene Eric]

O’Reilly is a simple man — a very, very simple man.

Huckabee be a hanger on. He got not choices but take a check for whatever he does on the FNC on Saturday night.

When Ailes called him into the office to talk policy along with Tokyo Rove, they say "Mike how do you like your job?"

Mike say "I love my job."

They say "How you like Amnesty and Open Borders?" and Mike say "I like those things just as much as my bosses like those things."

They say "Atta boy Mike, go tell the world and the Wash Po how much you love the NWO."

Good post. Nice link.

Corker-Hoeven that sounds like a rash, maybe you need some ointment for that. (loosely a Mark Levin comment :p )

[TLI]

Huck.

Dude. Go home.

What the conservative American Citizens want... YOU AIN’T IT.

Sorry...

Yes, Huckabee has a soft spot for illegals and criminals, even if they are one and the same! But AR has finally found someone good, a young congressman with the unlikely name of “Cotton”.

[Theodore R.]

Isn’t O’Reilly also that dreaded word, “a Floridian”?

[VRWCarea51]

Must be ole Mike thinks Tyson Chicken still needs a couple thousand illegals to pluck chickens.

Let us not conflate the ‘SOCIAL gospel” with our current reality.

We are attempting to retain a Constitutional remnant of what the Founding Fathers envisioned.

The “poor” will always be around. That is the burden of the Church, not the government

[EternalVigilance]

Huckabee’s status as a quisling has been established for a very long time. This just reinforces what we already knew.

  One day after announcing on his radio show that he is "truly considering" running in 2014 for the U.S. Senate seat now held by New Jersey's Frank Lautenberg, Rivera amped up his message today in a television interview and a column on the Fox News Latino website... a moderate Republican who is fiscally conservative but also supports gay marriage and Roe v. Wade... [Geraldo Rivera declares himself a 'moderate Republican' as he eyes U.S. Senate run]

I side with Rush. None of these clowns care to even slow the tide of illegal immigration.
