CNN ^ | 7/5/2015 | Jake Tapper

How did his “softer tone” work out when releasing criminals?

I wonder if the Huckster would “beshmerch” a car thief because he wanted a better car? Or, how about the guy that cheats on his wife because his mistress is better looking? What is it our ruling class doesn’t understand about the rule of law?

This is exactly why I don’t like Huckabee. He’s an opportunist and too P.C. He won’t tell it like it is and certainly can’t relate to the publics frustration over being ignored while we watch our country being over-run with law breaking illegals who are sucking the tax payers dry.

Thank you, Donald Trump, for telling it like it is!!!

There is absolutely NO one who will tell it like it is except Trump and Cruz.

Even the “native” Americans are immigrants, since they came from Asia using the land bridge formed during ice age, connecting the two continents.

Immigrants are always welcome. But only if they come legally, are checked for diseases, have no criminal record, have skills which will help US economy, and will not be burden on American tax payers. If trump wants to build a impenetrable wall on southern border, and deport the criminal and rapist illegals, I support him.

Disclaimer: I am a legal immigrant, became US citizen in 1970.

Huck is right on a couple of issues, but other than that, he’s a squishy incoherent mess.

HIs voters are voters who only think about one or two issues. Period.

Huckster is slick at fooling rubes.
Anyone with sense knows he has been on board The Cheap Labor Express for years.

Mike seeds to learn a lesson from this guy.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." — Theodore Roosevelt

Huckabee has always been a minor league player. No guts or passion.

Huckster has always been a big supporter of illegals and illegal labor.

That is their plan.
Fool enough people into believing that if we pass another amnesty that this time they really will secure the border.

The citizens aren’t falling for it. Again.
We remember 1986.

Both parties are committed to keeping The Cheap Labor Express running.

Excellent points. Huck sees illegal aliens as nothing but eager immigrants.
