You don't need a "hit piece" when you have skeletons in the closet like Huck does (with taxes and releasing a rapist/murderer). Looks like an objective interview, but Huck will suffer because of this. Most of his supporters are def. "law and order" types, and releasing a rapist isn't exactly law and order.

It seems like they're trying to find dirt on every single Republican frontrunner to make Hillary look good.

But the Huckabee thing does need to be addressed. Especially so all his religious supporters can have a listen.

Whats disgusting about this is that Huck allowed this maggot to be released to rape and kill a woman, not out of a mere error in judgment, which is forgiveable, but because of some insane right-wing tabloid-style campaign contending that the rapist worm was framed by Bill Clinton, who was a distant cousin of the 17 year old girl he raped.

Read the article I copied and posted into the thread on the campaign board. These NY Post articles are being deleted from the net today as people are finding them. Check out what the wife of this rapist pig says incoming Governor Huck has promised her.

This is a foul story. Parole officers have sworn that Huck pressured for this turd's release. Huck says they're liars.

Yesterday I thought Huck was an honest decent man who's wrong on policy. After looking into this, I now think he's a slimeball.

Huckabee is a pig.

He was just on The Situation Room and he blamed
- Clinton
- The governor before him
- Accused the 3 parole officer of lying and only saying it because he didn't reappoint them for $75k a year jobs
- Said if the victims wanted to blame him instead of the parole board or the democractic governor before him, then he understood

So basically everyone else is to blame but him.

Parole officers said that Huckabee came in and told them to release Dumond. Huckabee says they are lying and he just happened to be there to discuss his views on clemency. Because you just go to parole board meetings for the fun of it I guess.

They also briefly mentioned the victim letters he ignored and the calls from victims.


This rapist was scum - he raped a number of women and in one case held a knife to a victims neck while her 3 year old daughter lay beside her. The young lady said that Dumond told her that if she screamed, her daughter was next.

That is the kind of person that Huckabee wants to pardon.

That's the Republican equivalent of the dog ate my homework. GOP presidential candidate Mike Huckabee spoke today at a press conference about the growing controversy over his role in releasing a convicted rapist who then went on to rape and murder two more women. Huckabee has been giving conflicting answers for days now about the incident, and today came up with a novel excuse: It's Bill Clinton's fault. Six times during the press conference Huckabee invoked Clinton's name, trying to pin the blame on him for helping release the man who raped his cousin. Now, you can throw a lot of hurt at Bill Clinton, but suggesting that he'd help free the guy who raped his cousin, that's pretty far out there even for the far-right Clinton haters. And in fact, Bill Clinton had recused himself from the case because the victim was his cousin.

But even if Bill Clinton helped Huckabee enable the rape and murder of two women (which he didn't), that's the best Huckabee can come up? Clinton helped me do it?

What's particularly outrageous about Huck's "Blame it on Clinton" defense, is that it is the EXACT OPPOSITE of what was going on at the time. Huck and a group of right-wing Clinton-hating idiots were insisting that this worm Dummond was innocent, and that Clinton and his henchment had set him up and sent him off to prison to rot. Read the NY Post article that I copied on to the other board.

Huck set this monster free because he raped a cousin of Bill Clinton's. I don't believe that Huck knew Dummond was guilty, but I firmly believe that Huck's irrational hatred of Clinton caused him to set this animal free, and that an innocent woman was raped and killed as a result.

Disgusting and vile.

This was a media campaign designed to discredit Bill Clinton, and Huck bought into it. Dumond had raped and killed before he attacked this teenage girl. The NY Post hit piece is a pack of lies. Go to today's Huffington Post to read the real story.

As soon as Huck got in office he manuevered this worm back onto the streets, where he molested and killed two more women, before finally being put away for good.

He may well have thought Dumond was innocent. Thats not the point. The point is that what convinced him was irrational political partisanship and hatred for Clinton. This was all being whipped by up by the Clintonphobic wingnuts and Huck bought it, ignoring pleas from victims.

Now that its clear that releasing this man was a fatal mistake, he's lying to cover himself.

Read the Arkansas Times link, that pretty much tells the whole story. Wayne Dumond was a controversial figure in Arkansas before the pardon, because he was supposedly castrated by some vigilantes...(although some reports said it was self-mutilation) I think that, combined with the political hype over the Clintons at the time, caused Huckabee to think Wayne Dumond had been treated too harshly.

Huckabee is not an honest politician, he never has been. There will be more skeletons coming out.

Has no one brought up the hard drives that were destroyed when he left office? My girlfriend (who works in Arkansas state government for years) says its probably because his rumored gastric bypass surgery that he supposedly had done in Mexico was evidenced on those files. LMAO Think about it, if he lost 100 pounds, suddenly, simply because he adopted a healthly lifestyle, you would think his wife and kids would have followed suit. Of course that is all rumor and even if true, not really relavant at all, but just more things he covers up.

Well here's what the wife of the rapist had to say in 1996, before Huck actually delivered the goods: "The new governor, Mike Huckabee, has assured me Wayne will be a free man," Mrs. Dumond said Thursday.
"He is not one of the Clinton crowd. He is a very fair man. He has
always been disturbed about the way the Clinton people never wanted my
husband free," she added.

He was working on a book about his healthier lifestyle I believe. I think he would love to regulate that part of your life for you too. After all, he did it.. why not you? I think if the gastric bypass is being covered up it started out as vanity, now it would be a deep blow to his campaign.

I haven't heard the story about his son yet mentioned here yet. Huckabees son reportedly, in the role of a Boy Scout camp counselor, tied up a dog and mutilated it with another kid. Mutilating animals is a sign of a borderline psychopath. It could be a sign of something gone awry from his upbringing, like parental attachment disorder. Allot of theories on this type of disorder also state it could be genetic.

Dumond never would have been paroled had he not be falsely imprisoned by Bill Clinton and his thugs to begin with. I'd love to see the media actually come to Arkansas and speak with some of the people involved in that case. It all goes back to Bill Clinton, his extended family, and one man who was trying to expose their corruption.

Wow. That was a great interview!
I hope they put that video up on their website.
He expressed his condolences to the victim's mother, refuted the claims by the former board members, and said how he regrets that this horrible situation has been politicized.
Anyone who watches that can tell he's being honest! From Huckabee's Truth Squad article: "I can only tell the truth and let the truth be my judge."

I'm no fan of Bill Clinton. Far from it. But this idea that a rapist should go free because his victim was Bill Clinton's cousin, and all the Clintonphobia conspiracy theory uber-weirdness associated with it, just blows my mind.

The undeniable truth is that Huck bought into tabloid politics, overrode a jury verdict and a judge's sentence, and released a man to rape and kill two women, because of some delusional anti-Clintonism

From what I read the rapist didn't kill his original victim but another woman in MO

I read that too but article was busted by the arkansas online.

I hope so, but I fear that we underestimate evangelical Christians' capacity for stupidity.

They may forgive him or, worse, rally behind him.

if he's sweet talking his way out of this, then... i don't know... maybe not, cause Romney will be all over this piece of news... it's his ticked to strike back in Iowa.

You can tell just by looking carefully at Huckabee in the eyes that he's a sociopath.

Could there possibly be any better news for the rest of the field than that "Allegations of Republican front runner Mike Huckabee's Rape Scandal have come to light this week"?

"Rape Scandal"

I'm giddy.

Huckabee is a pig.

He was just on The Situation Room and he blamed
- Clinton
- The governor before him
- Accused the 3 parole officer of lying and only saying it because he didn't reappoint them for $75k a year jobs
- Said if the victims wanted to blame him instead of the parole board or the democractic governor before him, then he understood

So basically everyone else is to blame but him.

Parole officers said that Huckabee came in and told them to release Dumond. Huckabee says they are lying and he just happened to be there to discuss his views on clemency. Because you just go to parole board meetings for the fun of it I guess.

They also briefly mentioned the victim letters he ignored and the calls from victims.


This rapist was scum - he raped a number of women and in one case held a knife to a victims neck while her 3 year old daughter lay beside her. The young lady said that Dumond told her that if she screamed, her daughter was next.

That is the kind of person that Huckabee wants to pardon.

But America NEEDS another "compassionate conservative." Barf.

Yes, we're definitely underestimating the ability for such "Christians" to be sheep.

Sadly, I figure many will rally.

But I think this still kills his campaign.

I've grown to not trust most any pastor these days. I doubt them all. I myself am a very committed Christian--although the title gives a bad air to my ability to reason--and I've learned powerful pastors in this country are generally neither honourable nor trustworthy. The few that are should be revered.

Body language experts claim excessive blinking is the subconscious' reaction to conscious lying.

That's exactly what I was thinking.


I was wondering earlier tonight where I could find some dirt on Huckabee... :D


(I'm not happy this happened, but if it does the country good by getting Paul elected, I'm pleased overall.)

There is no way this story is going to go away. It's got testicles on a desk.

There is no way this story is going to go away. It's got testicles on a desk.There's also testicles being taken to a wedding. I wounder if the groom at that wedding was feeling a bit uncomfortable that day.
