Are you sure you want to post that link and have people go there and read it? Here are some of the responses;

“This proves one thing about Huckabee that seems to be more obvious in this election then any other in my memory. These candidates will say anything to get elected. These two men were convicted in a court of law by a jury of their peers. I know the prosecution withheld evidence that might have changed he circumstances in the case. Why didn’t their lawyers take action to get it introduced during their trial? Why did the judge not allow it? It seems the case is rip for appeal. But, for some politician to say when he gets elected, he will set two convicted felons free, because it is a popular topic, is blatant disrepect for the law. It is a cheap political trick.”

“The guys shot an unarmed man 15 times and didn’t report it, the legal status of the guy they shot is a bit irrelevant.”

“That’s what we need a POTUS who can rely on divine inspiration , and not wait on messy and confusing evidence , to announce a situation absurd . Oh pardon me .”

“Although initially I would have went along with this statement of pardoning. Looking more at the evidence I wouldn’t do that now. ““Some in the media and on the Internet have tried to portray Agents Compean and Ramos as heroes but that narrative is false,” Sutton said. “The actions of Compean and Ramos in shooting an unarmed, fleeing suspect, destroying evidence, and engaging in a cover-up, are serious crimes. They were prosecuted to uphold the rule of law.” If you want to hide something and destroy evidence then YOU know you did something wrong.”

“This case is under appeal and these 2 guys could wind up with a new trial or sentence reduction or have it thrown out on sloppy prosecution.Let the system work itself out.This is just Huck pandering....This guys gets a lot of mileage out of his caring puppy dog face.A lot of people out there fall for this crap just like the TV Evangelicals who live in mansions and drive Bentleys.”

” Like most conservatives, I was amazed at how Bush handled the situation. How could he let 2 border patrol agents go to prison for shooting an illegal alien drug smuggler?

Then I spoke to a family member and a neighbor who are both border patrol guys. Without a doubt, they both said, the guys should be in jail. They broke the rules, the lied and then covered up the incident. There was no sympathy from their co-workers.

What would happen if you freed the guys? You would be over-turning a jury conviction. You would be condoning a cover-up. You would be sending a message that violation of guildelines and the law is OK.

For Huckabee to come out and say that he wants to review the case tells you all you need to know about him. He is soft on illegal immigration and he feels that taking a stance like this will play well with anti-illegal alien crowd.”

I see nothing wrong with Huckabee saying that the case is suspect. Because it is!

Oh and by the way-—I see nothing wrong with shooting an invader who is trying to get away. Yes, in the butt. Anywhere.

I see nothing wrong with the burden of proof placed on the invader, not the guys who struggle out there on that border...with their hands tied because GOD FORBID some drug dealer/child molester ad nauseum has his “rights” violated.

What is inherently wrong is that 2 border agents sit in prison with scum...and that there are some using sophistry to deny them their freedom.
