Huckebee went pardon crazy: He pardoned twice as many violent felons as the previous three AR governors combined. Huckabee pardoned a felon on the average every four days of his administration.
Huckebee has a Willie Horton albatross around his lily livered neck and he will never see the inside of the white house: This is a good thing.
Huckabee is a liar, a gutless wonder and a charlatan. If this scumbag had been pardoned by Bill Klinton all of you Huckleberry apologists would be screaming to high heaven.
And....He is a lousy muscian
He was also instrumental in releasing other dangerous criminals.
below is a news story from 2005
New sources, including an advisor to Gov. Mike Huckabee, have told the Arkansas Times that Huckabee and a senior member of his staff exerted behind-the-scenes influence to bring about the parole of rapist Wayne Dumond, who Missouri authorities say raped and killed a woman there shortly after his parole.
Huckabee has denied a role in Dumond’s release, which has become an issue in his race for re-election against Democrat Jimmie Lou Fisher. Fisher says Huckabee’s advocacy of Dumond’s freedom, plus other acts of executive clemency, exhibit poor judgment. In response, Huckabee has shifted responsibility for Dumond’s release to others, claiming former Gov. Jim Guy Tucker made Dumond eligible for parole and saying the Post Prison Transfer Board made the decision on its own to free Dumond.
But the Times’ new reporting shows the extent to which Huckabee and a key aide were involved in the process to win Dumond’s release. It was a process marked by deviation from accepted parole practice and direct personal lobbying by the governor, in an apparently illegal and unrecorded closed-door meeting with the parole board (the informal name by which the Post Prison Transfer Board is known).
