Excerpts of Mike Huckabee's Speech at the Values Voter Summit in Washington, D.C.

Mike Huckabee unloads on Washington "making a speech is not leadership"

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - Former Arkansas Governor and 2016 GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee blasted Washington Republican failures and fighting at the Values Voter Summit in Washington, D.C. this afternoon. The following are excerpts of his speech.

"I'm angry. Republicans aren't doing anything different in the majority as they were doing in the minority.

"I understand what a fight is. But I understand that a fight means that you fight to win, not just fight to fight.
"The easiest thing in the world is to take a can of gasoline and a book of matches and burn the whole thing down. It requires no skill whatsoever. A kid who is 11 years old can do that.

"I've never lived here, I've never worked here, I've never had a paycheck here. But I do understand that simply making a speech is not leadership and simply proposing a piece of legislation is not leadership.  Unless you bring it to the point where it gets signed and implemented, it's nothing but talk.

"Leadership means you get the job done. We must begin to get the job done. I've heard enough speeches in America. I want some real leadership to change America."
