Mike Huckabee's very liberal, lenient hug a thug record on crime concerns me

How can he keep the American people safe from terrorists if he seems to have such a fetish for turning criminals loose out into the street?

There is only one candidate who can be trusted to punish criminals and that is Barack Obama: the stingiest president in history with the pardon. Obama supports the death penalty for first degree murderers and cop killers.

Mike Huckabee likes to pardon them so they can walk the streets and terrorize the American people.

The campaign ads are going to be blistering a devastating, making the Willie Horton ads look like a commercial for baby food.

1. I'll bet he's soft on terror, too.

If those Muslims in Gitmo start getting saved, he'll start turning them loose as well. They'll start sleeper cells all over the country.

2. in case you didn't know, last year a man whom Huck pardoned killed 4 cops

his name was Maurice Clemmons, and shortly afterwards another officer shot Clemmons to death.

Even that right-wing pro-Bush site Family Security Matters dislike Huck now!

The AP reported in 2007 (yes I know the following link is FoxNews.com but whatever) "Mike Huckabee's Clemency Record Is Under Scrutiny" because Huckabee granted clemency to convicted rapist Wayne DuMond, who three years after release raped and killed a woman.

I don't see how the evangelical Christian community of Arkansas could've supported commuting criminals just because they "found God" while behind bars. It seems to me that religion blinds everyone from reality...from the inmates who use it to gain sympathy from the government and the people to the religious followers who believe that believing in a God and holy figure will make you a Good Person (TM).
