Joe Scarborough Rips Huckabee For Paroling Rapist

[coolkid242]

As usual, Huckabee's story doesn't match up with the facts.

[phillip84109]

Huckabee is a very smooth man. He misrepresents facts all the time. This is just another example.

[moichidomoichido]

McCain wouldn't bomb a country because of depression. He would bomb a country because he "hates gooks and will always hate gooks".

[Tornado1994]

We need people like Scarborough and Olbermann, He's a former congressman, a ex neo-con who got off the sinking ship known as the "Bush-admin" and a man who knows the GOP left and right. Not like that Clinton ass-kisser Matthews, or the Obama hater Dan Abrams! Huckabee is a scumbag, decieving black-hating redneck who hides behind his racism and love for white using God! Hell, even neo-cons like an elderly Bush-loving white Texan christian like my mother's girlfriend can't stand Huckabee!!!!!!

[moichidomoichido]

Joe is a Message Force Multiplier. Joe's a lady killer! Talk about paroling rapists! Good stuff Joey!

BJ in the oval office gives makes you uneasy? How about over 700,000 Iraqis, military AND civilian, over 3,000 American soldiers dead. -OOH, but DONT get oral!

[somnolent49]

Wayne Dumond almost makes me want to support the death penalty. I don't think a single issue has ever made me not want someone to be president before, but this is just too damning of Huckabee for me to ever feel comfortable with a Huckabee presidency.

[aprillh]

I have a good idea -- how about TRUTH IN SENTENCING! You serve your WHOLE sentence. Dumond should never have been released!  Huckabee is now lying that he never got multiple letters begging Huckabee to keep Dumond in prison. What a scumbag -- Huckabee.

[aprillh]

Huckabee -- you're through, give it up. Republicans don't want a liberal in conservative clothing as our president!!! You have lied on so many issues that I dno't know how you can call yourself a good "Christian." Stop peddling Christianity to get elected. It offends me as a conservative Christian! You pardoned a murdered who raped/killed a young Mom while her 3 yr old WATCHED!!! Shame on you.

[jaredjbrown]

.

This is the best we have against Hillary and Obama??

.

[OctoBox]

No the best we have is Ron Paul!!!

[bigdaddyk2648]

Huckabee is a threat to the constitution. His record is despicable. He is a lying bastard who will never make it even close to the white house, ever. I can't even look at that ugly bastard. He let's rapists out of jail. What's next, maybe he ought to take care of his dog killing son.

[BooBooLane]

ditto, biggy-26. Mike 'Pass-The Buck-a-bee' should serve the rest of Wayne's time.

In fact, Wayne should have been either sentenced to death in Arkansas or been given life and no parole.

[KeithOIbermann]

Joe is sooooo hot. I love touching myself under the table when I see him at the NBC commisary. Cum on down to Scarborough Country, baby!!!!!

[karen31076]

are you talking about Ron paul??

[thinkpolicy]

.

Huckabee:

Worst GOP candidate on Immigration

Worst GOP candidate on taxes

Worst GOP candidate on pardoning criminals

Best impersonation of Jimmy Carter

.

[billsfan606]

first of all, wheres the talk of wayne dumond having spent all those years in prison and then having dna evidence finally brought out that he was innocent.All those years in prison for nothing.The arkansas prison system then kept him in prison another three years before finally releasing him. He had to be released.

[darsal123]

those of you holly than thou who had never made a mistake then go ahead and vote for the unfailing rest I will vote for Huckabee !!! and most of the american people and you will see it. and eve if he is not elected he stil is the best!!

[eR3alist]

Sure, I make mistakes, I forget to do my laundry, I leave the heater on when I leave the house, I forget to feed the dog... BUT I HAVE NEVER RELEASED A RAPISTS TO RAPE AGAIN.

Take your blinders off.

[penebbq]

darsal123 I bet you're the kind of hypocrite that was OUTRAGED!!! when Clinton lied about his BJs.

[darsal123]

I am a hypocrete even today, I accept that! are you hypocrete to??? by the way Huckabee is the best the heck with the rest!!!

[ElHuapango]

Darsal123 - come on dude, McCain is going to kick the snot out of Hunkashitty. We don't need another backwoods inbreeder from Arkansas for president again - look what happened when we had Clinton - bj in the oval office - uncool... haven't you learned your lesson. Besides McCain's wife is hot.

[darsal123]

Are you electing a miss America?? yes McCain third or foutth wife is Hot, How about if he decided todivorce or find his wife cheatting on him for lack of "preformance", then he bombs some country because of his depression! I take my chances, but from the whole bunch, Huckabee is the best! By the way go to my page and check my jingle for Huck Reloaded

[moichidomoichido]

darsal123- McCain is a solid "performer" in the sack. Take it from me, a male prostitute, the dudes got it GOING ON! He's hung like a gerbil and can go ALL night. Pound enough Viagra, Cialis and Meth supositories up this guys ass and you'll think you've got a shopvac attached to your cock. Sure, he calls his wheels the "STRAIGHT talk express". That doesn't mean squat though. What Cindy don't know won't hurt her.

[kalkoala]

I'm all for the death penalty and frankly castrating this SOB would have let him off easy. Protecting our mothers, daughters, and wives are incredibly important Christian values but its too bad Mr. Huckabee forgets that for his political aspirations. I have never been so angry towards a politician in my life. Pray Mr. Huckabee that your wife and daughter never come across someone like Wayne Dumond.

[kalkoala]

As a Evangelical I was almost fooled into believing this former minister was different than your typical politician. Well Mike your no different at all. Don't go on television and tell me that you feel God leading you to serve in public office when you are truly nothing most than a self serving SOB who had a indirect hand in the murder of these women in Missouri and the rapes of these women in Arkansas.

[cyclopticeye]

Thank you for being a good Christian it will not go unoticed. Pray for the rest of us heathens who try to do the right thing even if we sometimes fall short. Thanks for being honest. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[darsal123]

scarboro what the heck is his name??? what show is this???

any one??? o must be one of those shows no one see it this guy is trying to get ratings up!!!

[TheFreedomRevolution]

Fool.

[TheAUricle]

This is the LAST STRAW!

Add to this a piece out of the Chicago Tribune covering the #of delegates Huckabee is going to have in Illinois.....

"Huckabee's delegate slate includes Leslie Pinney, an Arlington Heights school board member who unsuccessfully tried to get nine books banned from District 214's reading list last year."

If BOOK BURNERS are the kind of folks supporting Huckabee, and this Abrams story is true, good riddance to Mike Huckabee!!

[chexmygold]

Joe is absolutly right-a rapist can only be stopped if they are totally removed from society.(prison or death, makes no difference to me) Their is NO reabilition possible. Anyone who thinks there can be is ignorant. Huckabee showed a lack of judgement. He is not someone who should ever be in charge of anything!

[fuctnfried]

Mike DID have a role in influencing the parole board. He made it known that he "wished for the release of Wayne Dumond"

He did NOT commute the sentence, but that does not exonerate him from guilt in this case. I believe the Huffington Post article provides damning documents that show the extent of Huck's involvement and culpability.

I wasn't going to vote for Mike anyway, but if people (esp. in Iowa) see this and STILL vote for him, it only proves that we have become a nation of sheep.

[TheTruthHurts101]

Huckabee let out a rapist!!! He is the worst person alive. He ignored letters from rape victims! He just lost my vote! Ron Paul 08

[lanetruck]

Chukmaty, lying is a sin....

[itsnobody]

Wow...first I find out this guy raised taxes by 47% in Arkansas, gave entitlements, and now I find out that he released a serial rapist...

What a false conservative

[chukmaty]

47% was actually less than half the national average and on the low end of the spectrum.

Huckabee went to Joe's show and explained that he HAD gotten the letter and that it was key in his choosing to DENY commutation.

It was Clinton and Tucker who commuted and a Clinton appointed parole board.

[SkylineTime]

I don't know why it is so hard for some of these people to actually understand the facts of this case. They are just haters and aren't able to listen to the truth because they see Huckabee as a threat and are trying to bring him down any way they can.

[djbAnks]

This is disgusting Huck did this as a payback to Clinton and it blew up in his FACE! Huck you suck and you have a womans death to answer for. Justice was served and you sir thought you better. YuckHuck I can NOT believe he ignored the pleas of the victims to not release Dumond. They knew he would do it again. Huck ignored it. He had an agenda. ERRRRrrr Dumond should be sent to texas where we dont play.

[LiptonGuy]

This is what happens when you allow Jesus-Freaks to hold public office. They "believe" that everybody should be FORGIVEN and given a 2nd chance. Doesn't matter that Huckabilly didn't actually parole him. Huckster pushed for Dumond's release...wrote letters and appeared before the parole board itself; after women had wrote to Huckabilly about the threat that Dumond posed to society (if released)

[walternyc]

He was brutalized while her 3 yold baby lied next to her ... How Hucky will explain this? Will he respond with a stupid joke? Good job Joe

[jusmart]

So he is front runner in Iowa and so they dig this story up? Wow...nice job America

[TheFreedomRevolution]

A front-runner in Iowa? Shut up. Those stupid polls don't mean crap. Howard Dean was at 23% in the NATIONAL polls in 2004 the month before he lost basically every primary.

Bill Clinton was at 2% in national polls and he won the election the next year. Jimmy Carter was only at 1% in national polls the year before he got elected.

Those stupid polls are ridiculous!

Don't be scared about the TRUTH being revealed about your big-government liberal Huckster.

[jusmart]

Did someone with "freedom" in her name just tell me to "shut up"? Seems a little counter productive. Anyways, your reply to my comment is of no relevance because it doesn't matter what place he is ACTUALLY in, the polls show him winning so far. What I was saying is that once the polls (again, perhaps not reality) show him winning, he gets attacked. There in lies my point, but thanks anyways pal.

[umagauma]

The truth is...Christian groups helped orchestrate the release of this man. I believe that they wanted to a cheap shot on Bill Clinton due to this woman being a distant relative and this has sick political motivations. It's quite clear that Huckabee lied, attempted to hide evidence, and divert his responsibility in the issue and he is clearly not a man suited to be our President.

[haircutname9]

[IntelligentiPauca]

Not only a warmongering neocon, a foreign welfarist, a big taxer, and a happy capital punisher, Huckabee pardoned a serial rapist, despite horrific letters from his victims, because the man's first victim was a distant cousin of Bill Clinton's, and the rapist's release was therefore a Christian right cause. The man went on to rape and murder two more women. Huckabee has lied and covered up, but now the story is out. taxhikemike . org

[chukmaty]

Wow, Joe totally misrepresented the facts... the only official stance Huckabee took was REFUSE clemency.

[chukmaty]

Huckabee did go on later and his story checked out.

[titanshane]

Wasn't Dumond parolled by the parole board? His sentence wasn't commuted.

[gsuitter]

Huckabee had made a case directly to the parole board for his release according to parole board member Charles Chastain PhD University of Arkansas. This from an ABC interview.

[larryds3]

GSuitter, I'm familiar with the ABC News report and with all due respect, I've never been so appalled at news media. They went so far as to use the word pardon. Huckabee denies most of what The Huffington Post assumes to be true. It's simply a matter of who you choose to believe. The circumstantial evidence sides with Huckabee.

[lilbro86]

Well, it seems that the victims do not choose to believe Huckabee, and that's a huge problem for him.

[StellarRay5050]

Do you even know what circumstantial evidence is?

And if you do (or after you wiki it), what was the circumstantial evidence that sided with Huckabee?

[chukmaty]

Clinton commuted the sentence through then Lt Gov Tucker. Huckabee denied further commutation, possibly because of the letters.

[lanetruck]

You are full of it. The 17 year old girl who was raped by Dumond was Clinton's cousin. Right wing hate groups lobbied Huckabee to release the rapist and he appealed to the parole board to do so. Huckabee ignored all of the warnings from women who were raped by Dumond and disregarded a earlier murder charge against Dumond from another state.

The only reason Huckabee wanted Dumond released was to curry favor with Clinton haters.

The blood and tears from those poor women are on his hands.

[SkylineTime]

You have no idea how the parole system works. The Govenor cannot parole anyone! The parole board let him go. And for you to suggest a conspiracy to get back at Bill Clinton. I think that is just laughable.
