"Many of you used a term that I’d like to see outlawed from the vernacular of the party: RINO," he said, calling it a "pejorative term" that questioned one's purity.

Huckabee pointed out that he got a tweet from someone who complained that he was a RINO, which upset him.

"With all due respect, I’ve fought in the trenches of Republican politics for over two decades, but I wouldn’t pretend that I’m lord over determining who the real Republicans are versus the so-called RINOs," he said.

A guy who thinks he can be President is too thin-skinned to handle someone calling him a RINO?

[Tennessee Nana]

RINO ROMNEY has been that for 40+ years...

hes an old liberal dog too old to change and learn new tricks...

RINO stays...

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Isn’t that like Rosie O’Donnell calling for banning the term “fat slob”?

[skinkinthegrass]

Marxi$t$ = $ociali$t = Democ'RAT$ = RINO$ / Democ'RAT$ Lite = Mike Huckabee...
Krispy Kreme Christie, Sens. Juan McPain, McConnell, SotH. Boehmer et.al. about said it all.

[Bullish]

“Is he really a RINO?”

Don’t think so, for the same reasons you listed.

Dear Huckster

The RINO’s are the ones who spend most of their time covering for Democrats and supporting leftism and attacking conservatives and the TEA Party. Such as McConnell.

[dennisw]

Huckabee should try and ban the word “huckster”

Isn’t that like Rosie O’Donnell calling

"Are you still proud of pardoning those murderers for votes?"

I think on one of his shows last year he had an ex con on and the theme was that convicts can change and make good. It was so obvious what the Huckster was up to. It stunk.

Don’t be fooled by his ah-shucks play acting. He is a RINO just like boner, McConnell, McCain, PAUL RYAN and Rubio. He might talk as a conservative but he is for more govt control. There is a reason he put his radio show up against Rush Limbaugh’s.

When he firsted started a few years ago, he had Ann Coulter on. He became more and more visibly upset as she verbally bitched slapped him around.

On last Saturdays program, he had on Scott Brown who as a politician is totally clueless as to why he did not get the same Tea Party support that put him in office. As Rush said, when you start supporting conservative principle, then we will support you.

Had on a guy from the Club for Growth, and that guy slapped him around a few minutes. Also had on some Tea Party leaders who said that the RINOs want grassroots support but when they lose in the primary, they either do not support the primary winner or run as an independent and split the vote. They do not support the conservative candidate. That seems to be the main point the RINOs do not want to talk about.

If not RINO what do we call the person at the focus of censure from The Maricopa County Republican Party? This is McCain’s home county, voted overwhelmingly to censure the 2008 Republican nominee for president for his “betrayal” of party values, according to the local CBS affiliate. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3111629/posts
