What does one have to do to get out the truth about this hypocrite? Here is the text of an e-mail I sent to Bloomberg.com, trying to expose his true character:

Dear Heidi Przybyla:

I saw your article on Yahoo! News (news.yahoo.com and got your contact information from there.

I found particularly compelling the statement: "An ordained Baptist minister, Huckabee talks openly of his religious beliefs and how they inform his policies." The reason why is that I lived next-door to Mike and Janet in Little Rock, when they occupied the Governor's mansion.

My wife and I found ourselves in a property-line dispute with the Huckabees and the State of Arkansas when they attempted to "annex" approximately six feet of our back yard. After the tornadoes of 1999 had destroyed the fences, the State of Arkansas -- under the orders of the Governor -- sent an official state surveyor (Kit Carson) to ascertain the property lines. It needs mentioning that in the State of Arkansas, about 150-200 years ago, surveyors were not really precise.

On election day 1998, when they felt certain that no one would notice, the State of Arkansas sent contractors out to set up a fence that transversed our backyard. Only by notifying the local television stations and an attorney were we able to stop the installation.

Previously, my wife had gone to the Pulaski County Courthouse and viewed the plats (official deed records) and ascertained that the Huckabee's were in error about the property lines; that there was actually a discrepancy in the line between the Governor's Mansion and our property, dating back to the last century. In other words, what we had accepted as part of our back yard was actually "no-man's land." The Huckabee's wanted part of our backyard incorporated into the Governor's Mansion property.

Two days later, I instructed my wife to return to the County Courthouse and to make photocopies of those records. Lo-and-behold! When she asked for the records, she found that they had disappeared! "Strange," the clerk said, "there were people here yesterday from the Governor's Office who asked to see them." You can draw your own conclusion.

This is the sort of devious and immoral behavior that this "religious" Baptist minister condones and encourages.

I don't think the United States needs this lack of character in the White House again (following the catastrophe of GWB)!

Donald Williams

I followed up with the following, after Huckabee appeared on "Larry King Live":

Dear Heidi Przybyla:

After watching "Larry King Live" last night, I wanted to follow up my previous e-mail to you with the following direct quotation from that interview:

KING: We're back with Governor Mike Huckabee.
What part, if any, should religion play in a presidential race?
Why would it matter if someone is Catholic, Protestant, Mormon, atheist?
What does it matter?
HUCKABEE: It really doesn't matter, other than as long as you're consistent with your own faith. If I said to people, I'm a Christian, and then lived anything but that, then it would matter because people would know that I was basically disingenuous.
KING: But what you are is immaterial.
HUCKABEE: It's immaterial. I want to make clear -- a lot of people have thought that I tried to make that you needed to be a certain faith. I think what a person is is immaterial to whether they should be elected president as long as what they claim to be is consistent with the rest of their life. That's the only thing that ought to matter.
Huckabee makes my point. The only thing that should matter is the fact that he is disingenuous, dishonest and crooked, not that he is a Baptist minister; that the living of his life is unethical instead of "Christian"!
Regards,
Donald Williams

These are only two examples of his lack of character, and there are many (one involving bass boats that were "donated"!) So why don't the media expose this enigma?

The part about Mike H's son is really germane only in that Huckabee pulled strings to make sure his son wasn't punished.
