Our favorite pastor turned pill pusher turned politician is having a senior moment regarding his old buddy Josh Duggar of America's finest reality show, 19 Kids and Counting. Remember when that panoply of wholesome family fun was sullied earlier this year by the revelation that a teenaged Josh molested several underage girls, including four of his sisters? Well, you might recall how you reacted to that news, but Mike Huckabee is a little fuzzy about his response. Here's his latest take, via BuzzFeed:
“I really didn’t support Josh,” Huckabee told Iowa radio host Simon Conway on Dec. 23. “I supported his parents, if you’ll go back and look at what I said. There’s no support for what he did.”
Hmm ... let's see if we can jog the memory. Where, oh where could we find a refresher?? Oh, right, the Huckster's very own Facebook page, where he wrote a virtual tome (by FB standards) on the matter just a day after the allegations first surfaced.
Janet and I want to affirm our support for the Duggar family. Josh’s actions when he was an underage teen are as he described them himself, 'inexcusable,' but that doesn’t mean 'unforgivable.' ... No purpose whatsoever is served by those who are now trying to discredit Josh or his family by sensationalizing the story. Good people make mistakes and do regrettable and even disgusting things. ...
No one needs to defend Josh’s actions as a teenager, but the fact that he confessed his sins to those he harmed, sought help, and has gone forward to live a responsible and circumspect life as an adult is testament to his family’s authenticity and humility. ... It is such times as this, when real friends show up and stand up. Today, Janet and I want to show up and stand up for our friends. Let others run from them. We will run to them with our support.
this guy needs to get some new friends paling around with bigots Kim Davis that one i think was purely opportunistic and a child molester so far he's not said anything about praying for them just that he's on their side regardless to ow despicable they are and all wrapped in the cloak of his ministry?????????????? the guy is a charlatan playing the religion card at every opportunity.
