If you don't know about the Dumond story, see the Daily Howler and Digby's blog for the whole backstory. In short: misguided Clinton-hatred led Huckabee to release a killer, who went on to rape and kill again.

1. With one lie after another, Huck is digging his grave with a forked-tounge.

He claims that all he did was deny a commutation wen the truth is he TRIED to commute Dumond's sentence and the public outcry wouldn't permit it -- and also that he did not deny said commutation until the parole was already a done deal.

Had he denied the parole itself, he'd have a leg to stand on, but he didn't. In fact, he did the opposite; he pushed for it.

Clinton-hatred karma coming home to roost.

2. In a way this is good

There is only one candidate from the Republican party who is not a total dirt bag sycophant slime. And America needs him to win the primary. Because we need more that one Party ( the corporatists party who is pro choice and the corporatists party who is anti abortion aint working out to well )

My night mare is the Debate between Hillary and Giuliani : should we bomb all of the Muslim world or just part of it.
My dream is a Democrat has to debate Ron Paul: should we pull out of just Iraq or should we stop playing Empire around the world.

I am counting on the neocon candidates to split the sycophant vote in the Republican party.

Back in 2000 I thought it was good for Democrats when the GOP nominated Bush; he was so stupid I thought no way could he stand a chance I thought the Bush Nomination meant a Gore shoe-in. Boy was I wrong. Never again will I wish the Republican nominate the worst candidate

3. SHOULDNT SOME FUNDI JUMP OUT OF THE SHADOWS NOW

SHOULDNT SOME FUNDI JUMP OUT OF THE SHADOWS NOW AND SAY THAT IT IS KARMA AND THAT THIS IS GODS WAY OF PUNISHING THE HUCKSTER FOR HIS PAST...

GUESS NOT...

GUESS THAT ONLY WORKS ON GAYS IN FRISCO AFTER A QUAKE
OR POOR BLACKS IN THE PATH OF KATRINA

Johnny Ringo: Don't any of ya have the guts to play for blood?
Doc Holliday: I'm your huckABEE.

4. He's perfect ...

He's the perfect republican candidate. A religious nut-case that blames everyone else but himself. The everyone else is lying, he's the only one telling the truth, it's all Clinton's fault, and this is all a political ploy.

I don't know why they just don't swear him in right now? The elections are rigged anyway, so let's cut to the chase. After all what could go wrong having a man who believes the world is only 6,000 years old, doesn't believe in evolution and is looking forward to the "end times" as president?

5. It is a good thing for Hick that he has mastered the fake,

oh so earnest, look while lying through his teeth that he can convince some of the hicks a lot of the time.

[JDPriestly]

6. Lord, deliver us from four years of that sanctimonious, practiced liar.

We do not need another president who cannot take responsibility for his own decisions and conduct.

7. He actually handled that really well

He was calm and poised and seemed both knowledgeable and heartfelt

and he is going to be completely CRUSHED by this if he gets out into the open waters of a general election.

:bounce:

8. Wish someone would ask Huckabee about his relationship

with the Baptist minister who was working hard to have Dumond freed.
