Discussion: Huckabee On Clerk's Jailing: Even Jeffrey Dahmer Got Bail!

Just for the record, who TF is the Boston Stranger, and why was she arrested?

Clemmons was charged with molesting/raping his wife’s 12 year old daughter but his main claim to fame was the execution of 4 police officers. Wayne DuMond, another man Huck cut loose, is the one best known for rape/murder.

Someone should tell Huckabee that the purpose of jail in a contempt of court issue is coercion to follow the court’s order, not punishment.

Granting bail sort of negates the whole point of the exercise.

Someone should also tell Huckabee that he’s a pompous right-wing gasbag who has no understanding of how our courts and laws work.

He knows both of those things and could care less. This man is a con artist.

Is anyone paying attention to him? If so, I’ve missed it.

Its an unbelievable moment only for morons. Anyone with half a brain understands why she was sent to jail while others qualified for a bail.

She’s not even flowing the Kentucky Constitution:

No preference shall ever be given by law to any religious sect, society or denomination; nor to any particular creed, mode of worship or system of ecclesiastical polity; nor shall any person be compelled to attend any place of worship, to contribute to the erection or maintenance of any such place, or to the salary or support of any minister of religion; nor shall any man be compelled to send his child to any school to which he may be conscientiously opposed; and the civil rights, privileges or capacities of no person shall be taken away, or in anywise diminished or enlarged, on account of his belief or disbelief of any religious tenet, dogma or teaching. No human authority shall, in any case whatever, control or interfere with the rights of conscience.

I’ve never heard of bail on federal contempt charges.

Anyone? Bueler?

Bail is for the purpose of making sure the Defendant shows up for his trial. She’s already had her hearing, and is now being jailed for contempt. Bail serves no functional purpose here.
But one of the conditions of bail is to obey all laws. Like issuing marriage licenses to law-abiding same sex couples. Is the clerk now willing to issue those licenses?

when is this DUMBASS gonna realize that there is no bail for contempt of court. Only a purge of the contempt, to wit: she agrees to issue marriage licenses in accord with decided law! I guess when civics classes convened in junior or senior high school, or at the Holier-Than-Thou Seminary that this dumb fuck attended, he must have been at lunch. Nothing wrong with the Huckstergrifter that a quick survey of constitutional law wouldn’t cure.

pathetic : causing feelings of sadness and sympathy : very bad, poor, weak, etc. : having a capacity to move one to either compassionate or contemptuous pity : marked by sorrow or melancholy : sad : pitifully inferior or inadequate : absurd, laughable

So Huckabee would let Dahmer out on bail?

From the link inversion provided: ā€œDahmer is charged with four counts of homicide, as a result of the police search through his apartment. Dahmer admits that his crimes are wrong and declined to shift blame. His bail is set for 1 million dollars.ā€

As AntiSachetDeThe pointed out above, Huckster is comparing apples to oranges. If Dahmer and Gacy had refused the judge’s order to follow his conditions of release, they would have been held on contempt like Kim until they agreed to follow the judge’s order. Kim herself holds the key to her release. She may continue to freely exercise her beliefs outside jail as long as she agrees to forego conduct that violates secular law and harms citizens and the public interest.

Oh, I think he knows he’s prevaricating. He’s stirring the pot in order to get support from those who are too stupid to know he’s prevaricating. He’s crooked as a dog’s hind leg. In fact he reminds me of Hunter S. Thompson saying that Tricky Dick was so crooked he need staff to help him screw his pants on every morning. I guess I find this one more reprehensible than all the others.

I like the Spanish translation even better: patƩtico.

Gacy and Dahmer got bail only from sexual assault charges, before they started finding bodies.

ty for that…though i’m scared that i’m going to be looking through state constitutions on my free time.

I had to look up Dahmer’s history (Research/kicks), but it still stands on Sam Donaldson’s explanation on why the media didn’t do their job in regards to the defense programs ad.

You and i (and a whole lot of folks) immediately went to Google, the moment when Huckabee starting spouting off those statements. Chances are that the media didn’t do that.
