And why wouldn't he???? Why is it news everytime Huckabee goes after his base?????

Do we need a headline everytime Hillary goes after feminists or liberals??

Or a headline everytime Obama goes after blacks or liberals?

What is the problem with Huckabee appealing to his base???? Or for that matter why is it news, isn't this what the primaries are all about. This is another bit of non-fracking news.

Conservatism, I repeat is not an ideology. It does not breed fanatics....But if you want men who seek, reasonably and prudently, to reconcile the best in wisdom of our ancestors with the change which is essential to a vigorous civil social existence, then you will do well to turn to conservative principles

The media, it seems, will do everything it can to avoid reporting the issues.

It wasn't always the case that the media should sacrifice journalistic integrity for entertainment and the widening of profit margins, however.

Haha, well, it is nice to agree on something for a change. Usually I find myself in the minority on practically all accounts.

Sometimes I feel the same way, being a conservative, I tend to find myself in the minority on several issues.
