| Description | Maybe the people of Arkansas should count themselves lucky former governor Mike Huckabee didn't have the temporary doublewide manufactured executive home demolished on his way out of office. After all, he decided to wipe out a good part of his record as governor when he left this month.
Not only that, he emptied the governor's emergency fund doing it, leaving Gov. Mike Beebe holding an empty bag until the end of the fiscal year June 30.
And some think Mr. Huckabee might be presidential material?
If you haven't heard, before Mr. Huckabee gave the keys to the governor's office to Mr. Beebe on Jan. 9, he spent the emergency fund having computer hard drives destroyed.
He didn't erase software. He didn't shred documents. He smashed the hard drives.
Well, he had it done.
Why in the world did Mr. Huckabee feel the need to destroy records from his time in office? What was in those hard drives he didn't want anyone to see?
He had hard drives destroyed at the state Capitol, the Governor's Mansion, the Arkansas State Police drug office, the state police airport hangar and the state's office in Washington, D.C. Mr. Huckabee ordered hard drives on 83 state-owned computers and four state-owned servers destroyed.
That's a fair amount of state property Mr. Huckabee had destroyed with a fair amount of state money. And the question remains: Why?
Instead of aspiring to the presidency, perhaps Mr. Huckabee should consider a career at the Central Intelligence Agency or National Security Agency. After this, he seems much more suited to keeping secrets. |
