Arkansas Blog: Huckabee v. Armey

Mike Huckabee and Dick Armey, through his special interest FreedomWorks, have both been encouraging the teabagger anti-tax protests today -- (it's a Chick-fil-a kind of day). But that doesn't mean Huckabee has forgiven Armey for dissing him during the presidential campaign.

"As for Armey," Huckabee writes when I ask him to weigh in, "he and about 75% of the so-called 'conservatives' owe me a big apology. They misrepresented my record, took my statements totally out of context, and accused me of economic liberalism, which is utter nonsense. My campaign upset their orderly apple cart, because it really was run by grass-roots conservatives and small business owners and not those who as it turned out were wholly owned subsidiaries of recklessly run corporations and lobbyists.”

Huckabee says Armey and his cohorts "never listened to what I was saying, but just spoke out to protect their pals who were funding their faces—there’s a word for people who get to paid to show love, but polite people don’t use it openly. I’ve found it amazing to watch the huffy puffy types who skinned me alive during the campaign jump out and support TARP, and then change their tune when Obama and the Dems proposed stimulus. Let the record note, that I opposed TARP---I called it the Congressional Relief Action Program from the beginning. I could say more, but have to go catch a plane!"

Yo, teabaggers...

How'd that noontime horn honk work for you? Did those pesky sirens steal your thunder?

High comedy...

I didn't hear any horns, did anybody even participate?

Back to subject - Let's you and him fight.

I love it when ThinSkinMike gets his panties in a wad. "Congressional Relief Action Program" still with the barnyard language I see.

Can't take the heat? GTF out of the kitchen!

Sitting back in Huckland and taking shots from secured little pockets is truly a coward's way.

Get in a real debate Mike! You can do it!

Wow this Danny Curry poster is really stoked with this rally thing.

I just drove near the capital at lunch and cut through the back side. Had to go by the Ledbetter bldg. Something involving tax day. If I would have thought about it I would swung around the front and may have seen the crowd out front.
