Huckabee's 'Profound Thanks' for Tax Hikes

The Arkansas Journal blog has uncovered this gem of a video. They write:

Governor Mike Huckabee addressed the Arkansas General Assembly, pleading with them to pass a tax, any tax. He ticked off a list of various taxes that he would find acceptable, a tax on tobacco, a surcharge on the income tax, a sales tax... "I will very happily sign that," he proclaimed.

In the end, he told the crowd that they "would have nothing but [his] profound thanks" for passing tax hikes. Wow, so much for principled leadership.
