A Vision of the Huckabee Economy?


Do we really want Huckabee to do for the U.S. what he did for Arkansas? Manufacturing jobs dropped 20% during his Governorship, from 1996-2006. While it is true that the U.S. is less and less a manufacture-based economy, this isn't the kind of thing you want to see happen, especially if you're a skilled laborer.

This is a link to Mike Huckabee talking to Canadian comedian Rick Mercer back when Huckabee was the governer of Arkansas. I think the "Talking to Americans" segment reveals as much about Canadians' pathetic insecurities as it does about Americans' ignorance of Canada, but it's still pretty funny.

What? You don't think we should work to preserve Canad's National Igloo? ;-)
