While touring in support of his recently released children’s book, the self-proclaimed pro-lifer and Christian, Mike Huckabee, called for the death of the WikiLeaks leaker.

From Politico:

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee says execution is the appropriate punishment for the leaker who provided thousands of State Department documents to the website WikiLeaks.

“Whoever in our government leaked that information is guilty of treason, and I think anything less than execution is too kind a penalty,” Huckabee, a likely presidential candidate, told reporters Monday during a stop at The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation & Library to sign copies of his new children’s book, “Can’t Wait Till Christmas!”

Sometimes, the irony just writes itself. I do not heart Huckabee.

One man’s treason is another man’s transparency.

This statement is further proof that Mike Huckabee is unfit to be president of the United States or to hold any other public office.

I hope that he remembers to go after his buddies who outed V. Plame,and ask for their execution also .So soon we forget, I guess it's easy to call for the death of a Pfc.,but not the death of a sitting VP or of other government officials involved for a similar crime.Plame stated that she never even received an apology.A sad world we live in…
