Huckabee blasts Rove, 'elitist' GOP establishment

Yup. And I’ll relentlessly disparage any phony who pushes that liberal piece of crap.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

I’ll tell you what I’m tired of. Big spending, nanny-state, open borders, soft-on-crime, Jimmy Carter foreign policy, socially-conservative-but-economic-liberals like Huckabee thinking that they are what this party needs.

Country club Elitist Mitt Willard Romney:
“Romney praises Obama again
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney praised President Obama
at a GOP fundraising dinner Wednesday ..
"I also think it's important for us to nod to the president when he's right," Romney said....
Romney, who spoke at a dinner for the National Republican Senatorial Committee,
said he's pleased with the president's plans to "finish the job" in Iraq and Afghanistan
-- lines that drew applause from the partisan audience. He also applauded the president
for standing up to the auto industry.
"I hope he continues to be tough ....The former businessman even offered faint praise for
Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, saying that after a series of initial missteps,
"I think he's finally getting close to the right answer."

I'm getting really tired of these terms.

Good. Remove the people who fit those descriptions from your party and you won't hear them any more.

As others have pointed out, this is nothing more than Huckabee trying to position himself for another Presidential run in 2012. First he attacks, smears, and ambushes Ann Coulter on his show like he has never done to anyone because she dared to call him a liberal. Now, he's trying to hop on the anti-establishment bandwagon. Gee, Huck, what did you do as governor when you were the "establishment"? Oh, that's right, you raised taxes, increased the nannystate, cuddled up to illegal aliens, released dangerous criminals, kept Clinton's cronies employed in your administration, and pretty much destroyed the Arkansas GOP.

The Huckster is a joke. Hey, Mike, be happy with your little FNC gig. Don't blow it. Quit using it as a platform to prove your conservative "creds". You have none.

[big'ol_freeper]

Exactly.

[ColdOne]

blasting the "elitism" and "country club attitude"... I'm getting really tired of these terms. It sure is getting tiring!

[Bigtigermike]

They are all trying to jump to the grass roots side and then claim they were there all along. Keep one eye open all the time on them.

But it's too late.....only one person who is a potential to run has consistently defended the Grassroots movement and jumped on board from the beginning without hesitation...and SHE will get the majority of their support hands down when that times come. SHE was on the front lines taking hits with them when the charge of racism was levied, SHE called it the "beautiful movement"...she fully embraced it. You know who I'm talking about? lol!

[GOP_Lady]

I agree.

RE: Remove the people who fit those descriptions from your party and you won’t hear them any more.

What are the odds of a Romneybot such as Gop Lady supporting that idea when their “precious” is one.

Elmer Gantrybee is a sleazy liberal who free murders to kill again.

[Salo]

murderers, dammit.

[GLDNGUN]

Indeed they do apply to her. She is a mitten kitten.

Poor, poor kitty.

I'm sure glad I won't have to worry about Mitt or Huck in 2012. Sarah Palin will obliterate both of them on her stroll to the Oval Office.

[rintense]

Amen. He’s a shyster of the highest order. Him complaining about RINOs is the epitome of hubris and irony.

[BamaDi]

I have to tell you though I met Shelby Friday evening and sat and ate a seafood dinner with him for about 30 minutes and I was very surprised at what a down to earth person he is.... I’ve never been a huge Shelby fan but now I’ll have no problem voting for him..........

[big'ol_freeper]

Don’t trust them, they’ll attempt to do the same thing they did in 2008, They’ll use calumny to try to discredit any true conservatives and then try to split conservative voters so they can get a RINO like Romney nominated.

Ever vigilant my FRiend.

[Diogenesis]

While Gov. Palin was helping conservative Republicans,
backstabber Romney was helping .... himself through surrogates again.

“Rove is pushing Romney so aggressively some folks are beginning to wonder what's going on,” grumbled one veteran Republican strategist.”

---

“Rove has made no secret of his support for Romney as McCain’s VP. ”

[Malesherbes]

I have two litmus tests: (1) attitude toward Sarah Palin, and now (2) attitude toward Christine O’Donnell.

These are two strong, articulate, and principled women who deserve the highest respect. I have nothing but contempt for those who abuse them.

>>>He’s pro-life, pro-gun, pro-God, pro-fiscal responsibility.

And he’s pro let perps out of prison to commit more crime.

I’m not a huck fan, but he’s right....Bush/Rove were country club, big spending republicans...
