Mike Huckabee: Outlaw Use of 'RINO'
breitbart.com ^ | 1/14/14 | Tony Lee

Posted on 01/14/2014 2:08:14 PM PST by ColdOne

"One term that I’d like to see outlawed from the vernacular of the party is 'RINO,'" Huckabee wrote on his Facebook page on Monday. "It stands for Republicans in Name Only, and it’s a pejorative term that questions the authenticity and orthodoxy of someone’s party purity. I’ve been called that myself, even though I fought in the trenches of Republican politics for over two decades. Even so, I would never pretend that I’m Lord over determining who the real Republicans are."

Those police officers would be alive if it wasn’t for a RINO named Mike Huckabee who let the killer out of prison to kill again.

He’s right

The pejorative is out of hand and detrimental to the war on liberalism

“”Clemency
You can get it from Mike Huckabee
. . . Why he let them go, we don’t know,
He wouldn’t say
So I’ve bought a gun for the scum that he set free

Clemency, you can kill your whole damn family
And Huckabee might set you free
The Governor grants clemency””

I’d like to see outlawed from the vernacular

That kind of rhetoric is the very reason Huckabee, et al, are called RINOs.

Outlawing a word because someone doesn't like it is right out of 1984.

Banning or outlawing or censoring specific words doesn't work, even though the Leftists would like for it to work. That makes Huckabee a Leftist, regardless of what his religious friends and supporters think.

One thing I’d like to see outlawed from the party is Mike Huckabee!

I turn him off as much as I do Obama and McCain.

Just what IS the Bag Limit for RINOs in each month of a Mid-Term Election year, such as 2014 ?

Bounties? Did you say we get bounties for any RINO that puts us over our bag limit? Sweet!

RINO is sort of a misnomer today...perhaps even a few years ago it would have been correct. To be a Republican meant something, it meant conservative, pro capitalism and pro business..(pro freedom). So what is a Republican today? Boehner for example. The party has morphed left toward what the Democrat party was under Kennedy. (And the Dems have now moved left of that by admitting and proposing pure socialism). So"Republican" has changed, and it's face is Boehner, McCain, Graham, etc.these men are not "Republican" by our former definition...they do not represent what we who call them RINOs represent. The leftward advance is now the GOP Establishment...these are not "our" Republicans

The Republican party no longer adheres to the conservative base's belief...it is leftward and now the GOPe. So we should stop calling them RINOs ...and they should be called GOPers.

Would they really have been out of place in Eisenhower's or Nixon's or Ford's Republican Party?

Ok, we can stop using RINO, and use CINO instead. Do you think that will be OK with him?

Let’s just outlaw voting too while we’re at it. Let the criminals in congress and the executive vote themselves in or out. Then, they can fear each other instead of the vote by members of “extremist” pressure groups like the tea party.

The Huckster is the epitome of a RINO, cloaked in fake religiosity.

Of course he wants to ban the word.
