Huckabee:"The idea of not having government is not a conservative idea, that's really something beyond that, really more of a Libertarian, and it really borders on anarchy."
"I think true conservativism says there's a need for government, we ought to have it, but it ought to be competent."
Stewart: "Both sides want the government to intervene, they just want them to intervene under different auspices."
Conservatives would say, "I want a big military," well, that's government.
The fact that you would trust the government with tanks and nuclear weapons, but not to pass out cheese to poor people, you gotta say to yourself, "I don't get it.""

Is Huckabee competent?
ReplyDeleteSuddenly conservatism doesn't mean limited government anymore?
ReplyDeleteAnd then the two of them go on to debate the semantics of marriage. If the US had a proposition that clarified the definition of conservatism, I think the real meaning might be overturned and redefined. Oops. Too late.
