Huckabee serves as a prime example of the fact that compassion should be accompanied by sound judgment and common sense. Once Clemmons violated his parole the first time by committing a crime that involved at least the threat of force, his parole should have been revoked and he should have been returned to jail.

The only mitigating factor, if it can be called that, is that others in both Arkansas and Washington State also dropped the ball, so now a lot of people have egg on their faces. I hope they think about all the kids who have been left fatherless or motherless because of theie monumental stupidity and negligence.

I think the Dumond case was far more egregious than this one, but if either case (or both together) keep him from doing to the 2012 primary what he did to the one in ‘08, I’ll take it.

As should parole boards, psychobabblists and anyone else responsible for their early releases.

Neo, I have been saying for some time that if a judge lets someone free, and that someone commits the same crime, that the judge should be charged as a co-defendent for allowing this to happen. – Lorica

Nothing here I can disagree with. Huckleberry is a nice man. He has a good job. Hope he stays there.

The aside of all of this si to ask the question that if Huckabee is responsible, aren’t judges equally responsible in similar situations ?

Dead on the murder of those four police officers. I am familiar with the area. My late in laws lived in the Parkland/Spanaway/Lakewood area for many years.
God, please allow the shooter to be found and I pray he resists. That way he will receive his true reward.

Huck is a prime example of what happens when compassion is allowed to run rampant without reality. Bless his little pea-pickin’ heart, I know he meant well but his religion never told him to allow himself to be made a fool of. Quite the contrary, it tells its followers to be wise and discerning, and he (obviously) was neither in this case.

On a better note, his mistake was compounded exponentially by the state of Washington because the creep should never have been free on the rape charge. And remember, this is the state that recently “lost” a mental case on a “supervised” excursion to a carnival.

[...] When the story of the four police officers who were ambushed and murdered in a Washington state coffee shop broke yesterday, few could have imagined that the story would have a newsworthiness beyond the intrinsic horror of the event. Today, we learned that the crime may have an impact on the 2012 Presidential election. It turns out back in 2000, Maurice Clemmons, the Washington massacre’s chief suspect, had his 95-year prison sentence commuted by then Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee. [...]

RogerCfromSD: You are dead on. Had he dropped out when he should have, Romney would have won. Don’t know if Romney would have beaten Obama, but he would never have gone soft on him like McCain did. As for criminals, Huckabee is worse than Dukakis. Dukakis made one mistake. Hukster had a history of releasing felons that “came to Jesus”. Anyone that is dumb enough to believe a criminal has no business making national decisions. He was maximus idiotus.

DOA. He never should’ve run in 2008, and definitely should have dropped out much sooner during that election cycle. His clinging enabled McCain.

The good news is, that now that Obama is in office and the liberals are going ape crap in over-reaching, everyone sees just how insane and anti-American the liberal agenda really is.

Plus, Sarah came on to the national scene and she represents the type of politician I trust: one with values, and who lives them, and, one who isn’t an elitist POS from an ivy league university who thinks she knows better than God.

Absolutely DOA! Now we need the same for Mitt and Pawlenty.
