Our Platform for Outlining Colorado’s Future

I just got this on Rush: by St. Louis Conservative ...when a reporter confronted Huck about Romney demanding that he apologize for accusing Bush of having a "bunker mentality", Huck literally responded with essentially, "yes, but I am more pro-life than Romney and I'm more against gays than Romney". He literally dodged the question entirely and turned into an attack on Romney over social issues!!!!!! This guy is an absolute and total disaster. What a loser. ".....women and minorities hardest hit"

Below you'll find information and a YouTube link on Governor Huckabee's speech to the Center For Strategic And International Studies (CSIS). As you can see, he attacked the Bush Administration's "bunker mentality," called for "full diplomatic relations" with Iran, and claimed that "our focus on Iraq [is] at the expense of Pakistan." http://www.mittromney.com/News/Press-Releases/No_Laughing_Matter_12.15 www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQitn77AXvo "SOMEONE WHO HASN'T THOUGHT MUCH ABOUT FOREIGN POLICY" No Laughing Matter: A serious look at Gov. Mike Huckabee's record and policy beyond the one-liners. Gov. Mike Huckabee: "And the ultimate thing is, I may not be the expert that some people are on foreign policy, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night."

Mike Huckabee says the US government has an "arrogant" "bunker mentality". George Bush has surrounded himself with the best minds in the business. Dick Cheney was previously Secretary of Defense, and has more years in service of this country than Mike Huckabee has been alive. Robert M. Gates, the current secretary of defense was the Director of Central Intelligence for three years, and again make's Huckabee's Resume look pathetic. Rumsfeld was a brilliant strategist, and twice served as secretary of defence. Do we need to even mention the qualifications of General Petraeus? Each of these men lead organizations of thousands of people each working on the problems that America faces. Condoleezza Rice is also a very competent Secretary of State. These men and woman set American foreign policy, and project American power overseas. Mike Huckabee, a person who hadn't even heard of the NIE report that was on the front page of every newspaper for weeks, thinks ...

I don't know much about Mike Huckabee, but found his aw-shucks Foreign Affairs essay strange to say the least (e.g., cf. "The Bush administration's arrogant bunker mentality has been counterproductive at home and abroad." ) But what he offers inter alia is the rehashed plan of invading the nuclear, nominal ally Pakistan ("I prefer to cut to the chase by going after al Qaeda's safe havens in Pakistan." ) while reaching out to Iran, the de facto non-nuclear enemy, by offering normal diplomatic relations—of course, only after strengthening sanctions and declaring the Revolutionary Guards terrorists. He laments losing the good will once shown by Iran in its 2001 shared goal of defeating the Taliban-almost like lamenting the needless estrangement of the Soviet Union in 1946 after we once had been so close in working to defeat Hitler. Nowhere is there any suggestion that a new President Huckabee might find the world not all that bad—at least without the ...

The international man of mystery that will make America glamorous again!   This is how you make america "cool" again. This is the image we want to project to the world. Mitt Romney speaks French, has a Harvard Law Degree, and business degree... graduating at the top of his classes. Romney would be JFK without Marilyn Monroe. Romney has done business in many places overseas, ran the Olympics. When people come to his house, his kids will be able to speak to them in Spanish, and he will be able to speak to them in French. David Huckabee will be able to tell them about when he was a boy scout and killed that dog and tried sneaking the gun on the plane! Oh, good times.

Back Down in Little Rock Eugene Fields and an old familiar feeling. By David J. Sanders I t's just like old times. National reporters are again scouring Arkansas. Except this time it is Republican Mike Huckabee's record, not Democrat Bill Clinton's, that is the subject of interest. Over the course of more than a decade as governor, Huckabee granted over 1,000 commutations and pardons, and they're currently being examined closely by journalists. The latest to draw national attention is a commutation of Eugene Fields , who had multiple drunk-driving convictions. The question is if there was there a connection between his wife Glenda Fields's five-figure political donations and Huckabee's action. On April 14, 2004, then-Gov. Huckabee commuted the sentence of Mr. Fields — then a four-time driving-while-intoxicated offender — granting him early release from prison. Fields, a resident of the western Arkansas town of Van Buren, was a habitual offender. He had alrea...
