Local Police Union Official Calls Out Mike Huckabee on Maurice Clemmons Clemency Decision - Video
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | December 1, 2009 | Brian

Here is video of the Lakewood Police Union President - Brian Wurts - speaking on the Rusty Humphries radio show where he pointedly called out Mike Huckabee for his commutation of the 95-year sentence of Maurice Clemmons, the man who killed four Washington police officers on Sunday. They play a portion of Huckabee's explanation to Bill O'Reilly as to why he commuted the sentence. Wurts said Huckabee should just admit his mistake, apologize, and try to move on. He believes Huckabee should be more "up front" about this.

You can go here to watch Huckabee's full explanation to O'Reilly.

The suspected killer, Maurice Clemmons, is now dead, shot and killed by Seattle police overnight.

Huck has always talked a good game, then his actions reveal his leftist leanings.

Lakewood Police Union President - Brian Wurts....

Is deflecting blame away from his own city/state. If the guy wasn’t allowed bail, he would have been behind bars. Go after the judge that granted bail.

The Huckster’s 15 minutes has expired. So has Romney’s (Massachusetts Health Insurance Fiasco). Newt’s an NY23/Global Warming victim. Who’s left standing? Palin and Pawlenty. It’s Sarah all the way. Go Girl.

Is this Union ran by democrats? Would they have commented if the Huckster had been one of theirs?

I could really care less about the Union angle.

It does not take away from Huckabee's responsibility to MAN-UP and admit he was wrong for doing what he did.

And yet we are still waiting for him to accept his own responsibility WITHOUT shifting blame either to the "SYSTEM" in Arkansas or others.

Who cares if it was a union.

Be a friggin man and have the balls to criticize a Republican who deserves it. If Huck doesn’t let this guy out of prison, FOUR cops are alive. period. Anything else after that is extra.
