From pardoning murderers to pardoning child molesters.
Seriously. What the Huck is this guy thinking?
Gov. Huckabee said:
“Josh’s actions when he was an underage teen are as he described them himself, ‘inexcusable,’ but that doesn’t mean ‘unforgivable,’ ” Huckabee said in a statement posted on Facebook Friday.
“He and his family dealt with it and were honest and open about it with the victims and the authorities. No purpose whatsoever is served by those who are now trying to discredit Josh or his family by sensationalizing the story.”
Some on this forum will be here soon enough to absolutely tear you and your thread apart!.....Sorry
I’m not a Huckabee fan but agree with him on this,
Maybe a presidential candidate should just zip it, with regard to commenting on a still unfolding story about reality TV show people in trouble??? Just a thought. Why the need to comment at all???
If they were boys and he came out as trans-whatever, this would not be in the news as a bad thing.
The Duggars are from Arkansas, so they may all be friends. But he should keep his mouth shut.
Mike, just shut up.
How long have the Duggars been on TV? Were they in the “public eye” when the molestations occurred?
Wow, running on the Forgiving Child Molesters Platform!!! Makes you wonder if Huck Jr. graduated from torturing small dogs to molesting small kids who happened to wander into his garage...
The family didn’t deal with it. They protected josh duggar and didn’t keep him away from his sisters.
The Catholic church forgave pedophile priests...too bad it didn’t report them to the govt authorities instead it exposed more children to pedophiles.
Maybe it’s the Prosecutor in me but ... WTF????
GLAD they pulled the show. There was molestation AND a coverup. Someone needs to be prosecuted and NOW.
As for you Huckabee ... crawl back under your rock. You are not wanted.
If it is a teenager 13 to 19 doing something to someone 12 to 18 depending on the age differential I can see a defense. If you are a teen playing with a kid of single digit age you are a pervert.
What the hell is going on around here. I consider myself a Conservative of the Bill Buckley Firing Line variety, and I’m flabbergasted at some of the posts on various threads on a so called conservative forum. Who would have thunk (hat tip Yogi Berra) we would see posts defending child molesting as no big thing. Who are these goat ropers. Maybe I’m missing it, I am from the Northeast, but is this some hillbilly sentiment that I’m not aware of. We got other goat ropers on other threads jumping to the defense of big hairy tatooed bikers, you know your local meth dealers, as if they are some kind of heroes. If this is the new conservatisam pro-outlaw biker, pro child molesters, I say bring me back to the country club.
Its only sex ...(didn’t I hear that before?)
