AP: Huntsman to Announce Bid Next Week

[CARLHAYDEN]

Huntsman is a no good RINO and the Republican Party already tried putting up the Democrats' favorite Republican last time around and look what happened.

Care to explain how he is a "RINO"?

I think you're just confused because you haven't seen an intelligent and rational republican in a while.

So, you agree with Huntsman that the so-called 'stimulus' bill was too small?!?

[CARLHAYDEN]

Huntsman raised $1.2 million on first day of campaign. Join the Hunt!

So, do you agree with Huntsman that the Obama 'stimulus' bill (aka porkulus) was too small?

You seem to be dodging.

Oh, and let me add some other questions:

Which Huntsman position on the individual mandate for healthcare coverage do you prefer?

Are you so enthusiastic about Huntsman because he advocates strangling the economy on the pretext of ‘global warming’?

Do you support Huntsman because the liberal media is absolutely ga-ga over him?

Maybe the endorsement of Huntsman by Sen. Reid ways heavily with you?

Or, is it the gushing by Rachel Maddow?

Well, I have twice asked you if you agreed with Huntsman on things like the 'stimulus' bill being too small.

If you disagreed with that position, or the others I have cited, you could have simply so noted.

So, where exactly do you disagree with Obama (as he and Huntsman are pretty much in agreement)?

Also, why support a copy instead of the original?

Is it the ugly face of raacism?

"I guess in hindsight we can all say that there were some fundamental flaws with it," the potential GOP presidential candidate told Politico two years ago. "It probably wasn’t large enough."

He's saying it probably wasn't big enough to make an impact, he's not saying it should be bigger, simply giving a problem of the stimulus doesn't give support of it.

Here's his official position on the stimulus:
"Jon Huntsman said that he wouldn’t have voted for President Obama’s stimulus plan and warned from the beginning that “much of the spending (in the stimulus) is misdirected and more likely to bloat the government than boost the economy.”"

First, thank you for responding.

Second, the quote I was citing is NOT his revised (now that he's running) statement, but rather his original statement, which is:

So, which Jon Huntsman are you supporting?

And as to the other questions I posed...?

I referenced that quote in my response, you obviously didn't see it.
As to your other questions, you can ask them again if you want a response.

So, then you agree that the stimuluous bill should have been larger?

Oh, and do you agree with this Huntsman/Obama policy:

As governor of Utah, he appeared in a 2007 ad for an environmental advocacy group in which he said, "Now it's time for Congress to act by capping greenhouse gas pollution."

I do. Why is sanity frowned upon in today's GOP?

Cobbler,

First, welcome to the forum.

Second, you really should check into scientific reality.

Have you noticed that even the advocates of massive totalitarian government have changed the name of their movement from Global Warming to Climate Change?

Best data indicates that we are in for a generation of global cooling, having nothing whatsoever to do with actions of human, but rather with sun cycles.

Me too. And I'm wondering the same...

So, you're in favor of strangling the economy using 'global warming' as a pretext, even though we're facing global cooling due to solar activity.

It's called climate change, but yeah.

So, are you claiming that strangling the economy will stop the sun cycle from causing global cooling?

I really found the name change hilarious. 

If you believe the climate is too hot, or too cool, or too wet, or too dry - well then, you call it "climate change" and have the same Procrustean solution of strangling the economy.
