>> How many times in a “face to face” setting do you respond to someone’s statement of facts by stating “bovine excrement”.

That’s easy! I NEVER use “bovine excrement” to respond to a clear statement of fact.

However, I frequently call BS when confronted with same — even face to face. It depends on the situation.

Clearly, you’re too ignorant and lazy to participate in a real debate. Buh-bye.

I posted the information about Dumond being railroaded, because I believe that there is enough information out there to defend Huckabee in this one case based on the circumstances around Dumond’s arrest and conviction. [That is not to say that I would defend the large number of clemencies granted, but this whole can of worms came to a boil, to mix metaphors, due to the Dumond case.]

However, Huckabee chose to distance himself from Dumond’s release by claiming he had nothing to do with it. The other people involved are not backing him on this according to the posted article. It’s as if Huckabee got caught like a deer in the headlights and decided to lie his way out.

It’s always interesting to see how people behave under pressure. Given that he appeared to have a better defense than lying, it says lots about his character.

BTW, it’s interesting that those who want to tear down Huckabee over this Dumond release don’t bother to mention the castration thing. A Google search with “dumond castration” brings up quite a few links about the case including this recent FR link:

Of course, since Bill Clinton had ignored his own parole board over the issue and since Clinton was related to the victim, it was all over FR several years ago.
