LOL. That's the very first thing I checked as well right after reading his post here.

Unwarranted Pinocchios [Mark Krikorian]
Michael Dobbs, in his "fact checker" column in the Post, gives Huckabee "two Pinocchios" for "significant omissions or exaggerations" because he partially modeled his immigration plan on an NR cover story I did. Now, I'm no big Huckabee fan, but that's simply unfair — the page describing his plan actually footnotes my NR piece, for heaven's sake. Not til the last paragraph of the story does Dobbs get around to mentioning that: "In Huckabee's defense, it must be noted that his Web site credits Krikorian for some of his immigration ideas." So where's the omission? What's the function of think tanks if not to develop and articulate ideas for politicians to adopt?
http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=ZGU0OWMwMzRiZWMxYzg2MzQxYjZjZTRiMzllNThmNWY= I've heard Krikorian say, on the Laura Ingraham show, that Huckabee did contact him before he used his plan.
I changed my user name. I believe that the Evil_Bok account is no longer active. I asked the admin to cancel it and let me use Tramonto.
Im not posting under two names. I put my previous user name in my profile in case anyone wants to look up my older posts.
I see a difference between Hunter and the rest, but no difference between Thompson, Huckabee, and Romney. They all did liberal things and have turned around and campaigned as conservatives.
Yes, and so do a lot of folks. The problem is that first the 16th Amendment must be repealed. This is a little detail the Governor leaves out of his message. He also leaves out the small detail that this is not HIS plan since the actual Fair Tax bill was written by Neal Boortz and Congressman John Linder.
Listen to the interview. I was just quoting Lars' misquote of the phrase. It was supposed to be an inside joke in case he ever reads this.
Brother Huck’s Traveling Salvation Show
Cold January night
And the propaganda’s hanging down
And the conservatives on the ground feelin’ beat
Move up the road to the outside of town
And the sound of that good gospel beat!
Sits a ragged governor
Where there ain’t no truth,
And that gospel group tellin’ you and me
It’s Huck, Brother Huck, say
Brother Huck’s Traveling Salvation Show
Pack up the anchor babies and grab the old ladies
And ev’ryone cries ‘cause everyone knows
Brother Huck’s lies.
Starting soft and slow
Like a small earthquake
And when he lets go,
Half the valley shakes
It’s Huck, Huck Love, say
Brother Hucks Traveling Salvation Show
Pack up the anchor babies , grab the old ladies
And ev’ryone cries, ‘cause everyone knows
Brother Huck’s flam flam show.
Hallelujah!
Sung to Neil Diamond’s Brother Love’s Traveling Salvation Show
Nice, when someone points out that Huckabee is being lied about on the radio, you respond by mocking Huckabee and Christians.
Is it OK for Lars to lie about Huckabee’s plan?
