Excellent. I don't like Huckabee so much but this is priceless:

"Huckabee told Matt Taibbi of Rolling Stone that for the rest of his gubernatorial term his standard response to complaints about favoritism was, "'Hey, if you can play guitar like Keith Richards, I'll consider pardoning you, too.""

That's KR's signature tho', right? but the form was probably filled out at some guv'mint office in Arkansas.

Love the "self-employed" bit.

Curious now, has Keith ever applied for, been granted, or expressed any
desire for U.S. citizenship?

this was also covered on IORR at the time...he was promoting his book at the time, and it was also mentioned here, at the time that he was going to take a swing at the presidency; IORR scoops "Slate" by Years...
...Huckabee is the worst kind of politican and bullshit suckup. a dangerous idealogue that knows how to pander in every direction all at once. he's the worst kind of evil.

It would've been nice if he pardoned all. Including Freddie Sessler.

Wouldn't be a smart move no matter how much he loves the US (if he does). Because then he would be taxed on worldwide income. I understand that in the UK while the tax rates are much higher, it's easier to shelter your money if you have residences and business dealings that stay out of the UK. If there are any UK accountants, let me know if this is the case.

thanks with sssoul, looks like the rest of us skimmed it too quickly. bad handwriting should be another reason to not elect him...
