...Aren't people spending less in your stores? The average check is going down a little bit, and the number of visitors is reduced. People are coming less often to the stores.

"I don't take issue with what they believe, but the smugness with which they believe it," writes Huckabee, who raised some taxes as governor and cut deals with his state's Democratic legislature. "Faux-Cons aren't interested in spirited or thoughtful debate, because such an endeavor requires accountability for the logical conclusion of their argument."
