Those funny things called FACTS are actually quite important.
He’s still a tax and spend former Arkansas governor. We went down that path for president once already, I didn’t really like how it turned out.
Hey, I didn't support Romney, what the hell?
(Wait, I think that was a subtle swipe at National Review, in this case, carry on.)
"It's just a BOOKSHELF, you idiots. Don't ruin my perfectly decent Christmas ad!! It is NOT A CROSS!"
"My son did NOTHING WRONG! He put that dog out of its misery! I was right to have him evade punishment!"
"I did NOT have Lap-Band surgery!! That operation was a HERNIA repair! It has NOTHING to do with how I personally worked off all that weight rapidly!!"
"And so what if I pardoned 1033 criminals?? They were just good people who needed a little Christian LOVE! Not ALL of them killed again once they got out! Come ON."
I don’t hate Huck. I just think he has terrible judgement, (will not ever get my vote). Clemmons is just one of his mistakes. Without Huck’s commutation, parole would not have been possible.
No I don’t hate Huck and I didn’t vote for him in the primary. I did not vote for McCain in the primary either. There really wasn’t a good choice so I voted Romney in the primary and McCain in the general election.
Huck is toast for sure, but I don’t hate him.
“commutation did not pardon, declare innocent or acquit Clemmons of his wrong doing...blah,blah...Huckabees involvement with Clemmons was over...blah,blah...NOT a Huckabee commutation...allowed Clemmons to walk free...blah,blah...”
Huck commuted a sentence that would have kept this weasel in jail and the crime would never have been committed were he there. Attenuating the crime from the commutation does not somehow remove that commutation from the chain of causation. You’re right—that funny FACT is something that is quite important.
If it wasn't for this Huck guy down in Arkansas, these cops would still be breathing and their families would be getting ready for Christmas instead of their funerals.
Guzzuz...What the hell is wrong with you people?
So the REAL question is, who the heck paroled this idiot in Arkansas, not whether Huckabee was negligent in commuting the sentence, since the idiot was already on parole. I still wouldn’t vote for Huckabee (or Romney) however, for other reasons.
Good post.
Dissembling.
The crap that Huckababy and McCain pulled during the 2008 GOP primaries is enough for me to disregard this fool altogether.
