"Huckabee said the United States has trusted the Saudis and made them rich, only to see the funds used as “seed money for terrorism,” and that Saudi Arabia and Pakistan will ultimately back whoever can win.
He said the U.S. is headed down one track with Iran and ignoring options besides war — a result he said would greatly please Osama bin Laden."

I think that quote is right on.. the question is how would he handle these situations? That's the type of things I would like to hear from those running.
P.S. Huckabee is actually a decent leader... he did alright here in Arkansas as governor.. actually (and I'm a Democrat) my only complaint about his job as governor here is that he tried to move a little too much towards private education for my liking. Other than that he's pretty middle of the road (minus a few religious stances... he was a Baptist Preacher at one point after all)

Of course this stuff is true.Only the brain dead would disagree.Unfortunately the GOP has made it unpopular to speak the truth.I'm glad to hear people like Ron Paul and Huckabee speak out regardless of the hammering they will get from the other GOP candidates.

If I were to put money on Huckabee for telling the truth, as opposed to Bush, I'd put every last penny I had on Huckabee and win in a landslide.

I agree. Huckabee's got some real smarts.

Yea, he is correct, but what to do, what to do. The mid-east will always be a balancing act between peace, oil, and fighting/funding extremism, until such time oil is of no material importance, or, mid-east nations wish to join the west in some manner unimaginable today.

Every Democrat who wants to undermine the President agrees with Huckabee.
Does this answer sound familiar?
