The article indicates that no charges were ever filed, and yet Huck brought pressure to bear. For what? Perhaps it is a timing thing, and he didn't know they weren't going to press charges.
Putting that side (and it's hard to do that - it's pretty clear that Huckabee did something on his son's behalf) I can't believe Huckabee - he had the audacity to go on Larry King last night and say that the killing of the dog wasn't criminal. I don't know what kind of world he lives in, but if you or I took a dog, hung it up, slit it open, and threw rocks at it, I'm pretty sure we'd be answering to a judge.

Putting that side (and it's hard to do that - it's pretty clear that Huckabee did something on his son's behalf)Possibly, but what and when? And how can we be sure the former director isn't making this up to get back at Huck because he was fired?
he had the audacity to go on Larry King last night and say that the killing of the dog wasn't criminal.
I'll have to take your word for that since I don't watch Larry King. But since no charges were filed, perhaps it wasn't. (Remember, the director was fired, so he obviously didn't give in to whatever Huck was supposedly wanting.)
I'm not a Huck fan and won't be voting for him in the primary, but I think we need to be careful with the charges we levy against any candidate (even Rudy and Ronnie, whom I wouldn't vote for under any circumstances).
