Huckabee is Bush's "evil ideological twin"

Says Ilana Mercer, the second heavyweight libertarian columnist to dispatch Huckabee in recent days:

Huckabee . . . is as wasteful about lives and limbs as he is about material assets not his own. During a recent presidential debate, he recommended goose-stepping Americans into supporting the Iraq war: “We can’t be divided. We have to be one nation under God. That means if we make a mistake, we make it as a single country: the United States of America, not the divided states of America.” How convenient; Huckabee wishes to collectivize the responsibility for the wrongs he went along with.

To this fascistic folderol, Dr. Paul replied: “No, when we make a mistake, it is the obligation of the people, through their representatives, to correct the mistake, not to continue the mistake.”

And it is the obligation of evangelicals to heed Mrs. Schlafly, and refrain from “selling” Americans on another confidence trickster worthy of a P.T. Barnum circus, not of higher office.
