Huckabee released rapist
(and subsequent murderer)

This article should knock Arkansas Gov. Huckabee straight into early retirement:

The short version? A high school student distantly related to Clinton is raped. They catch the guy (Dumond), but the vast right-wing conspiracy movement claims he's innocent -- a victim of then-Governor Clinton's dirty tactics.

Huckabee believes the right-wing hype and paroles Dumond the rapist. Six weeks later, he (Dumond, not Huckabee) goes on to rape and kill a woman in Missouri. He is also the leading suspect in a second rape/murder.

Huckabee suddenly claims he had nothing to do with the parole. This article now proves Huckabee ACTIVELY CAMPAIGNED to parole Dumond the rapist.

It's so beyond sick that kicking Huckabee out of office isn't punishment enough for this sick, supposedly "tough on crime" bastard.
