Huckabee says Romney is ‘dishonest’

Is Huckabee right?

PI-Mike Huckabee called chief rival Mitt Romney “dishonest” today for what Huckabee said were gross distortions of his record, and said voters should question whether Romney would tell the truth if he were elected president.

“If a person will become president by being dishonest, just remember, if he becomes president, he likely will not be honest on the job,” Huckabee told voters at a restaurant campaign stop.

So apparently distressed at Romney’s criticism, Huckabee refused even to commit to voting for Romney for president if the former Massachusetts governor wins the Republican nomination. “I would never vote for a Democrat in the presidential election next year,” Huckabee said. But asked if he would prefer an honest Democrat to a “dishonest” Republican, Huckabee refused to answer.

    I think they’re both liars.

    Huckabee says Romney owes him apology

    FROM POLITICO

    Mike Huckabee told me Sunday that Mitt Romney should apologize for saying “blatantly untrue” things about him.

    Huckabee also said such an apology would be accepted only if Romney also admitted that he “has not been forthcoming” about his own record.

    Both statements came in a phone interview, after I had asked Huckabee whether he thinks he was owed an apology for negative commercials Romney has been running about him.

    “Here’s to you, here’s to me, best of friends we’ll always be
    but if we ever disagree,
    The heck with you, here’s to me.”

    Sounds like this is no longer friendly. Could it be desperation? What is more important? Winning or telling the truth? Why winning, of course. And who is telling the truth?

    I don’t like the way they pick out all the negatives and or try to make statements negatives by not showing the whole picture. Mitt will make the best, most effectual president for good. Huck will force his religion on the nation, no doubt and release many prisoners as well as terrorists in Guantanamo, no doubt.

    Keriama,
    Since you like Romney, guess you are an AMNESTY advocate. Why do you think flooding this nation with millions and millions of third world folks will help us? I think it will be the final nail in our coffin.

    Keriama, I would suggest you read Pat Buchanan’s new book “Day of Reckoning”

    These flip floppers will change at the drop of a hat. All they need is another “event” which “changes everything” (If ya know what I mean) The U.S. Constitution doesn’t mean anything to these folks.
