Mike Huckabee Didn't Kill Maurice Clemmons

PZ's sentiment is understandable; all available information makes it look like Huckabee screwed the pooch. But trying to hang the killings of the police officers or Clemmons on him is simply unsupportable. Sure, if Huckabee had acted differently Clemmons might still be in jail, but the same can be said of various other officials that Clemmons encountered between 2000 and now. Why not criticize the judge who most recently granted him bail? Because that judge is a political non-entity and Huckabee is a visible figure that people want to vilify.
