To Know Him Is To Dislike Him
The more I learn about Huckabee, the less appealing he becomes:
Huckabee doesn’t just embrace big government in the form of big taxes. He truly appears to believe that if something is a good idea it should be a federal government program.
For example, having become health conscious while losing more than 120 pounds (a remarkable feat), he now calls for a national smoking ban. Because he believes that "art and music are as important as math and science" in public schools, he wants these programs funded -- and thus, directed and administered -- federally.
Huckabee is, incidentally, the only Republican candidate for president who opposes school choice.
And he was endorsed by the NEA in New Hampshire. Appalling.
I can't figure out why he even calls himself a Republican.
