What is evil is Mike Huckabee lying about being a fiscal conservative and avoiding answering direct questions about whether or not he raised taxes while governor of Arkansas. In effect, Huckabee is lying about himself, bearing a false witness about himself.

Huckabee has not denied raising taxes. He has spoken about what he did and why it was done.

And he lied about that too, blaming it on various things, while never acknowledging the UNNEEDED largess he instituted in order to "need" those tax hikes.

He tried to work in it was for the roads, however, as has already been shown by the yearly budgets while he was Governor, he spent the money on everything but the roads as the sum total spent on roads declined during his tenure.

Everything with the Huckster is spin, spin, spin!

Oh yeah, he raised hope, not taxes. Uh huh.

Interesting tagline, Unspun.

God, please save us from Mike Huckabee’s ego.

I’d be more comfortable with Huck if I were a Democrat. He’s a global warming hoaxter, he accused a state rep who opposed in-state tuition for illegals of not drinking the right “Jesus juice”, he wants to close Gitmo, he hopes to turn D.C. into a STATE (!),etc., etc. Stop making excuses for this believer in statism. Even if he secures the nomination, I will have complete contempt for his political views. Support THE true conservative, Fred Thompson. Best, Bob

There's video of him giving an honest explanation ("I didn't cut spending elsewhere to pay for education because I like tax increases and consider them my first resort.")?
