Katie Pavlich @ Townhall.com reminding people of the truth about Mikey's record. And it's not just pardons ... it is conflict of interest, big government handouts to illegals, blame America foreign policy, etc.

The direction Governor Huckabee would take us in … liberal economic policies … liberal foreign policies … taxpayer funded programs for illegals … that’s not the model of the Reagan coalition, that’s the model of the democratic party.

Dear GOP - make sure Cruz is the man in 2016, or prepare to lose spectacularly.

I’m sure he did it on purpose just to kill an innocent person!

Come on, get some wisdom. Gov. Mike Huckabee went up against Bill and Hillary at the height of their power in their own state . . . AND WON.

He’s the only Christian that can get this done - he can beat Hillary!

[ Several prosecutors around the state are upset with Gov. Huckabee for grant- ing clemency to violent criminals, but he is blaming the prosecutors for often not seeking the maximum penalty and keeping felons locked up longer.

Until now, Huckabee has refused to comment on his controversial policy of making violent prisoners eligible for parole– they include murderers, armed robbers and rapists, who often return to a life of crime after they’re freed ]

Isn’t this like opening a gate on the farm and then blaming the cows getting out on the shabby fence when all the cows left via the open gate?????

He also pardoned a murderer who went on to murder again in Kansas City.
Just tell Huck you’ve come to Jesus and he will pardon anyone.

Nine years later, Clemmons was arrested and charged for the murders of four Washington State police officers.
Very poorly written since Clemmons was shot dead by a Seattle cop while on the run days after ambushing the four Lakewood, Washington police officers in a coffee shop.

This is but the tip of a huge iceberg in regards to Huckabee's record of granting clemency while Governor of Arkansas.

From an AP story in 2007:

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – As governor of Arkansas, Mike Huckabee had a hand in twice as many pardons and commutations as his three predecessors combined.

The case he's asked about most concerns the parole of a castrated rapist who later killed a woman.

Although the Republican presidential contender and Southern Baptist preacher plays down any personal involvement in that release, Huckabee granted 1,033 pardons and commutations in his 10 1/2 years as governor of Arkansas. The acts of clemency benefited the stepson of a staff member, murderers who worked at the governor's mansion, a rock star and inmates who received good words from their pastors.

---snip---

During his years as governor, Huckabee granted clemency an average of about once every four days. Huckabee's successor, Mike Beebe, has issued 40 so far this year, fewer than one a week. Bill Clinton, Frank White and Tucker granted 507 clemencies in the 17 1/2 years they served as governor.

Anyone who did this and was a decent human being would know that he’s not a good choice to run for President and would not try. Taking responsibility for this egregious mistake means knowing you aren’t fit to be the leader of the free world, which is fine considering most of us are not.

He felt his son didn’t deserve formal punishment for torturing and hanging a puppy to death.

He lies about little things like his surgery. Hillary does the same thing. These are people who feel they are entitled and don’t have honesty or honor among their traits. They do not belong in leadership.
