Huckabee Whacks MSNBC, Chris Matthews, And Geithner
Speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Thursday, former Arkansas Gov. and presidential candidate Mike Huckabee went immediately after some low hanging comedic fruit.

First it started with the news media (enemy number one in the conservative crowd), including his cable news competitor, MSNBC, and its host Chris Matthews

"Other news outlets have gotten religion recently," said the now-Fox News host. There is the "Oh God channel", he added, "after Chris Matthews finally realized that there was a God and called him out before Bobby Jindal's speech."

Later he went on to call Matthews station "MSBS." The rest of the media wasn't spared. Nor were members of Congress and the administration. Huckabee called Newsweek Magazine, "ObamaWeek," for its favorable covers and coverage of the president, referred to Obama's treasury secretary as "Turbo Tax Geithner," for his failure to pay portions of his income tax. Reflecting later on his long-held belief that the IRS should be abolished, Huckabee concluded that, if it came true: "We would no longer have a tax cheat running the IRS."

1. Since Jindal bombed, Huckabee thinks he's moved to the front of the line.

3. Huckabee
is one of those guys who constantly complains about the "left wing media", yet I seem to remember MSNBC CONSTANTLY propping up his supposedly hilarious and folksy ass.

4. They are reduced to bad jokes and anger
No ideas, no inspiration, no message.

All they are right now is anger.
