It has come to the point that police actions and lies are out of control. We must fight back.

Heh, I made the same error when I first wrote the post, FFZ.

But the idea that liberals wouldn’t commute or pardon a sentence is absurd.

Oh, I said pardoned in my first post. I meant to say commuted. No matter, we liberals would NEVER have done that for Clemmons either!!

“Huckabee’s extremely extensive use of the commutation power - granting 1,033 clemencies over his term as Governor, more than twice as many as had been granted by his last three predecessors combined”

Enough said. This is just one more reason that proves that Huckabee’s a jerk. And a hypocrite too.

Rethugs = ignorant lying hypocrites
Hypocrites = THE DREGS of this earth

JmBlue — don’t EVEN try lumping Huckabee in with us liberals!! WE liberals would NEVER have pardoned a criminal like Clemmons. Spare me your drivel.

@rolandska: Of course the criminal is the one who should be punished. But actions have consequences, and when we can clearly see how one man’s act led to tragedy downstream, we should say so. BTW, amusing that you’d call me a liberal; take a look around.

Huckabee is just a bible toting liberal when it comes to criminal justice. He represents everything that is wrong with Republicans. The only thing that separates current Republicans from liberal Dems is this faith crap. What happened to worrying about things that matter like fiscal responsiblilty? Sleep well Huck.

I don’t even have to read more to understand that this is another liberal author.

Huckabee can’t control the people who’s sentences he’s commuted. It is unfourtunate that Huckabee’s act of compassion on one individual allowed a continuation of events to occure until people were killed. But he didnt CAUSE it to happen. You could just as easily blame all the parole board, clemmon’s PO, the police, the state of AK or WA, or even society in general. It unfourtunate that so many people play the blame game, that they keep good people from trying to do good deeds, for fear of having some kind of consequence attached to them at a later date.

I will pray, for the little girl & her family AND for the police officers & their families but this is one man’s action, and HE should be the one punished for it.

BTW, I am a registered independent, although I admittedly lean right on many issues (with the exception of Big corporations and some social programs).

Doug, I don’t have details about his other crimes so I didn’t specify them in that sentence.

Another reason to vote for someone other than Mike Huckabee. This is not the only example of Huckabee being soft on dangerous criminals. Mike Huckabee should apologize to the families of the four police officers who were killed today.

Article states, “One thing is certain, however - if Clemmons is in fact the shooter, then Mike Huckabee’s no doubt well-intentioned pardon in the 1990s has cost the lives of four police officers and destroyed four families.”

It’s always about the cops.. how about you go back and add the CHILD THAT WAS RAPED….
