To me, being a fiscal conservative is not enough. You have to be a fiscal constitutionist. Stop spending money on programs enumerated for the states.

Privatize Social Security

Make it illegal for federal "Funds" to be invested in Treasuries.

Turn Health care over to the States

End of Federal Welfare Program

Abolish the Department of Education (promote higher education via article 1 section 8 of the constitution.

Just what part of his Critisizing Bush for his veto of SCHIP was Fiscal Conservative?

Just what part of his supporting instate tuition for the children of illeagal aliens Fiscal Conservative?

And then there is his nick-name, Tax-Hike Mike...thats Real Fiscal Conservative. According to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, the average Arkansas tax burden increased 47% over Huckabee’s tenure. Huckabee supported (in chronological order) a sales tax hike; gas and diesel fuel tax hikes; another sales tax hike; a cigarette tax hike; a nursing home bed tax; another sales tax hike; an income surcharge tax; a tobacco tax hike; taxes on Internet access; and higher beer taxes. Huckabee also oversaw a 50-percent increase in spending; happily signed a minimum wage increase and encouraged national Republicans to do the same.
