Huckabee: Iowans Just A Bunch Of Racists

From the New York Times reporting on Bush's comprehensive immigration reform effort:

Moreover, politicians who are running, or thinking of running, for president in 2008 have encountered deep resentment toward illegal immigrants in Iowa, where meatpacking plants rely heavily on immigrant workers. Iowa’s early caucus contests are regarded as crucial to any candidate’s chances.

Huckabee on Bush's plan. As this is the political season for apologies, I wonder, has Huckabee apologized to Iowa, yet?

2006: Supported President Bush's immigration plan and claimed that opposition to Bush's proposal was driven by "racism or nativism" and that it wasn't amnesty. (Ralph Hallow, "Huckabee 'Serious' About Presidency," Washington Times, 5/17/06)

Good Lord, Dan! At least be fair. The guy(Huckabee) said SOME of the opposition to Bush's plan was due to racism and nativism. And that is true, whether you agree with Bush's plan, or not, and I don't agree with Bush's plan. But you aren't blogging facts, Dan, and you're better than that.
