Entry: Huckabee: The New Huey Long Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/huckabee_the_new_huey_long#12049 Post contents: Big Government Conservatism..... The Deecider's "Compassionate Conservatism" relies heavily on the Religious Right's apocalyptic and crusading desires. People swoon and look for the patriarchs to make things better and "provide for the people". They want to be whipped into a state of ecstasy and are easy marks for the kinds of Mountebanks that inhabit our besotted government, slipping fistfuls of earmarks into every piece of unwarranted legislation. There is virtually no difference between the aggressive entitlement of our current political operators and the pampered, indulged and narcissistic leaders in televangelism , who live like earthly kings as a result of their facility at speaking to large complacent crowds who check their skepticism at the door. It really is a kind of rabid burlesque show , our unwholesome alliance of Big Religion and Big Government. Sent at: 2008 07 20
