Huckabee stands by Duggar

"Republican presidential candidate and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee is standing by “19

Kids and Counting” star Josh Duggar, who issued an apology and resigned from his job on Thursday amid reports that he molested underage girls when he was a teenager.
“Janet and I want to affirm our support for the Duggar family,” Huckabee said in a statement Friday on behalf of himself and his wife. “Josh’s actions when he was an underage teen are as he described them himself, ‘inexcusable,’ but that doesn’t mean ‘unforgivable.’ He and his family dealt with it and were honest and open about it with the victims and the authorities. No purpose whatsoever is served by those who are now trying to discredit Josh or his family by sensationalizing the story. Good people make mistakes and do regrettable and even disgusting things.”" msnbc
