Yes, I know Mike Huckabee will not be the next President of the United States. He won't even be the Republican nominee. (Saint McCain is on his way of riding the winner-take-all Republican primary system to that dubious honor on Tuesday.)
Still, there will be many people who view Mike Huckabee more favorably after this run for President. tristero at Hullabaloo reminds Nick Kristof there are many reasons why Mike Huckabee is unfit for public office.
Huckabee ignored court testimony in favor of right wing operatives and worked to release a serial rapist. Upon his Huckabee-engineered release, the rapist graduated to murder, possibly twice, before he was caught. Because of this incident, I have spoken with blistering contempt about Huckabee's character.
Huckabee blamed everyone but himself for the release of this rapist/murderer, especially Bill Clinton and lied repeatedly about substantiated facts. Because of his failure to tell the truth about his mistakes, I have denounced Huckabee's integrity numerous times.
During Huckabee's reign as governor, Arkansas' public schools regressed to a pre-modern attitude towards science, especially biology. This neglect was willful, and done with Huckabee's knowledge and consent. Because of his ignorance, I have denounced Huckabee's actions at every opportunity.
