You have an overactive imagination.

And Huckabee, like him or not, is not in the end responsible for what this monster did.

It has nothing to do with seeing a "compassionate conservative." It has to do with being rational and having common sense, and looking at the facts without bias.

There is plenty of blame to go around. Blaming Huckabee is a cop out. Easy for you, but wrong.

I’m not putting ALL of the blame on Huckabee, just the blame for his failure to exert adequate control at the point where control was his to exercise.

Ultimately, that’s all that ANY of us can be held liable for, and it’s all I’m holding him liable for.

He had a legitimate shot at discerning “the nature of the beast,” and taking a single action to contain said beast. He failed to discern, failed to give adequate weight to the the voices of other counselors, failed to take action to contain, and the rest is history.

No, he wasn’t the ONLY point of failure, just one of the points of failure that made a difference. That’s all.
