Changing the Story on Huckabee's Tax Hikes

Here's a video clip featuring Fox News' Carl Cameron on Mike Huckabee. Huckabee said the reason he had to hike taxes because of a court mandate on education funding. But as Cameron's report points out, well, not really.



Here is a video of Huckabee practically begging the Arkansas legislature to raise taxes, pretty much saying, "Tax this, tax that, tax something, tax anything. It would all be acceptable." He even says, and I quote: "You will have my profound thanks."



I'm sorry. I'd like to support a Christian candidate, but despite being pro-life, Huckabee leaves a LOT to be desired. Especially when Duncan Hunter is pro-life AND a solid conservative across the board. I don't know why so many pro-family leaders are willing to settle for Huckabee. What happened to principle over politics?

HT to the Arkansas Journal for both videos.
