Comment on Mike Huckabee, who pardoned Maurice Clemmons, rushes to defense of Josh Duggar, accused of child molestation

Ex-Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, the man who pardoned Maurice Clemmons, has delivered an all-out defense of Josh Duggar, a senior executive of the conservative Family Research Council who resigned after admitting he molested five underage girls while he was a teenager. Duggar, now 27, is a star of the TLC program “19 Kids and Counting” and until Thursday was head of the lobbying arm of the anti-gay Family Research Council.  After a police report surfaced in the tabloid magazine “In Touch”, Duggar said he “acted inexcusably” and resigned his post with the conservative group.
