Comments on: Huckabee Sounding A Little Like Ron Paul

[shoelessjoee-2009]

These words have never been his platform in the past but since it is projecting good for Ron Paul ...gee, why not?

And, if the voters got him for a president those words would fly out the window so fast, never to be heard from his lips again ...unless of course another constitutionalist challenger with integrity under his belt like Paul''s would happen to come his way! ~Mark 4:22, my prayer for this election,

1. We cannot afford these wars.
2. Based on the Constitution, the government does not have the necessary legal constitutional authority to be waging these wars.

Ron Paul is right. You are wrong.

Oh, and btw, I had very similar view to yours for years (since we first invaded Iraq in the early 1990''s) until recently.

Both men want to cut government spending, but... Ron Paul wants American troops to run back to America as fast as they can with their tail between their legs screaming.

Ron Paul''s idea of foreign policy is extremelly dangerous.

Try Ron Paul''s technique next time a dog is out on the street growling and barking at you. Do what Ron Paul says and run away from the dog screaming.

Do you know what will happen? The dog will sense the fear in you and will chase you and bite you. Only if you stand your ground and forcefully yell back at the dog will the dog not chase and attack you.

Ron Paul''s idea of cowardly running away with our tail between our legs will unleash the terrorist to run after us and attack us like a dog would do if someone is running away.

Ron Paul''s foreign policy will sink America. If you don''t believe me then go try this technique on a dog and see what happens. But I''m warning you, that is very dangerous and will lead to getting hurt. And if the dog has rabbis, that''s even worse. The terrorist have rabbies too, they are infected with evil minds.

In my opinion, the only Republican with any demonstrated integrity and philosophical consistency is Ron Paul. As this article demonstrates, Huckabee has no original thought. Romney has no philosophical bedrock; he floats wherever the winds of opinion take him. McCain isn''t consistently conservative. Giuliani is a lesser facist. Thompson? Get the guy a Red Bull. Honestly, I don''t think that fans of the Constitution have any other choice than Ron Paul.

Canadian PM Stephen Harper would make a better US President than the Hucksters. Canada just announced a significant tax cut... a tax cut they actually can afford.

Odd, Harper''s party is the called the "CONSERVATIVE PARTY" get it Republicans?

I lived under Huckabee''s governorship in Arkansas and I now live under Ron Paul as my district congressman here in Texas.

It took 2 years of reading Ron Paul''s newsletters and of his background before I became a convert to his philosophy and teachings. I believe it happened when I was displeased with him for denying the Katrina refugees a vote for the billions in aide. But, when I read his reasons and they slowly unfolded as the truth..I wrote him and asked him to run for president.

With Huckabee....he reminds me of the joke of why you have to take two Baptists with you fishing. If you think of your money as beer...he''ll drink it all up as long as one of his breathern isn''t looking on.

First Huckabee started with his soda pop tax and went on from there in raising our taxes..more and more and more all the while stuffing his pockets with personal gifts.

And lest I ever forget when he pulled the triple wide trailer on the steps of the governor''s mansion and lived in it while he and his wife spent tax dollar millions on renovating the Clinton''s old haunt.

I dislike just about everything about the Huckster but one thing I have to give him credit for - he knows which sound bites to steal from his opponents to make maximum impact.

Trouble is, there is zero sincerity behind what he says. He is all sound. He carefully sidesteps attempts to pin him on his record by throwing out some irrelevant information, usually in the form of some homily. Ask him about his record on raising taxes and he cites all the trivial tax cuts he made while failing to acknowledge that they were insignificant beside the raises he imposed.

He is a snake oil salesman who can not be trusted to deliver a product that will really cure what ails this country. For that we need a real doctor, Dr. Ron Paul.

The biased media put things in the blogs and hard to find pages so they can say ''we wrote this about him here or there" but you have to dig to find it. Hucke was a nobody, the biased media having him on TV, YES TV all the time gained his popularity. I don''t want to vote by popularity, I want to vote for the smartest and sharpest guy in the run, and there is only one I see,it the good ole Dr. RON PAUL!

[trinitron01]

Heck Huck, you are trying to copy a real leader, that being the good man Dr. Ron Paul. You are an imitator and can never be like Ron Paul, no matter how much you want to. You are a bigot, and hate some people, Dr. Paul cares for all people and is not a bigot like you.

I don''t think Huckabee has ever challenged Ron on anything but the war, but obviously Ron has a record of low spending, not just a balanced budget that happened to be very very large (see Arkansas).

[dinocon]

Seems the Huckster is getting to pick up the Progressives stunt when he finds he has no true agenda of his own he grabs Ron Pauls like the Progressives do to the Republicans all the time. He really does not have a good record since he and Congress have gone along with this fraud for over 90 years,after swearing a oath to defend the constitution. His voice fall on deaf ears now--he would never have said anything if Ron Paul had not got such traction from starting it.

Ron Paul leads in constitution and conservative principals--In action not words. Huckster is a copycat of a great message.

[giantrobot2]

The Huckaburger will sell like Huckcakes all around America. People just can''t get enough of this national presidential celebrity!

Huge groups of people have already started a new American langugage called Huckabese.

Music groups all over America are going wild with Huckabee as their presidential hero! Music groups have already started a new group called the Hucktunes.

Huckabee is creating a Huckaboom in America. Americans are really Hucky to have Huckabee running for president.

GO VOTE HUCKABEE, otherwise he will send Chuck Norris after you!

[misscsl]

Mike Huckabee is a joke. He''s a parrot. Ron Paul has been saying this HIS WHOLE CAREER! Dr.Paul''s not only got an extensive background in medicine, but he''s smart in economics, too.

It''s no wonder all the other candidates (save Thompson) would like to blatantly COPY Ron''s policies and issues, probably directly from his website. Ron Paul is getting a massive following behind him and they see this, and they want to stop it.

But do these other candidates keep their words? No. I''ve seen flip-flops, flat-out lies, and like Huckabee, stealing Ron''s platform.

Ron''s going to stick to his word. These other candidates, these mainstream choices, are going to flip-flop, lie and steal to get their way. When will people wake up to that?

The Republican Candidates as I see them

Mike Huckabee: Raised taxes 90 times as governor of Arkansas. Disengenuiously claimed a cross behind him was a bookcase. Funny, I didn''t see a single book. Must not read.
Mitt Romney: Reminds me of the guy that goes to prison and finds Jesus but as soon as he''s released he goes back to crime. He''s Pro-choice then Pro-life then what. In other words he flip-flops like a bass on the river bank.
John McCain: He''s still angry, rightfully so, over being in a Viet Cong prison - . But he''s just itching to take it out on somebody. He doesn''t need the ultimate power to scatch that itch.
Rudy Guliani: The man has been married 3 times. He didn''t learn the first 2 times. He''s not smart enough to be president.
Fred Thompson: Voted 13 times against our 2nd Amendment rights to protect ourselves. He''s a good actor, should stick with it.
Ron Paul: He''s never voted to raise taxes. He''s always been Pro-life. He''s a man of peace who knows the power to declare war rests with Congress not the president. He''s been married to the same woman, Carol for 50 years. He has never voted to take away any God-given right including those described in the Constitution.

After looking over the candidates, their positions and their lifestyles I''ve decide to vote for Ron Paul in the Feb 5th Republican Primary. Check out his positions on the issues. He is the one candidate that you won''t have to hold your nose when you vote for him.

Mike Huckabee may be sounding like Ron Paul. But does he mean it? O little look into his background will tell you NO. Like the other candidates, Mike has tried to figure out what it is that draws people to Ron Paul. They will say anything to get your vote. But Ron Paul is just saying and doing what he has been for over twenty years as a congressman. Constitution...constitution...constitution. And if it will not fit in the framework of the constitution, Ron Paul votes it down. That is what he swor an oath of office to do. How quickly the other forget.
