Huckabee: "Pakistan. That’s where Osama bin Laden is most likely hiding.”

http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2007/12/huckabee_bhutto_assassination.html#more

DES MOINES -- The day after Benazir Bhutto’s assassination, Republican Mike Huckabee said Friday that the killing “changes the world” by adding a new level or turmoil to the Middle East and raises concerns about terrorist attacks on America.

“The assassination of Bhutto I think creates not only new heightened tensions there but it reminds us just how delicate that situation is,” the former Arkansas governor said during an interview Friday morning on KCCI-TV. “If you think about Pakistan, that’s where if we have another terrorist attack, it’s going to be postmarked: Pakistan. That’s where Osama bin Laden is most likely hiding.”

...

But he still tried to draw a connection between his leadership as a governor and what he’d be asked to do if he was president if faced with a similar international emergency.

“Having been a governor, everyday you face interruptions and the unexpected whether it’s a tornado, a school shooting, it can be an airplane crash, something’s going to happen to interrupt your day and that’s what you get paid for,” he said. “It’s not the expected, but the unexpected.”

3. He certainly dealt with the Jonesboro school shooting like a seasoned pro--
Edited on Fri Dec-28-07 02:35 PM by wienerdoggie
he wrote a book about school shootings and made a lot of money off of Jonesboro, and not one dime to the victims' fund.

on edit--he declared the book would pay for his kids' college educations. Nice.
