The Only Adult In The Running

Beyond his many political successes, Huntsman actually believes that the 99.9% of scientists that back such controversial (at least, to frightened social conservative lackwits) concepts as evolution and global warming aren’t insane. He even backs same sex unions, a sensible response to a question that most GOP heavyweights seem unable to answer without sounding like hillbillies.

In all, he is actually an accomplished Republican with rational ideas decorated in a nice flourish of sanity.

No wonder he is losing.

Republicans, you ever wonder why the liberal media eats our lunch time and time again? This is why. Huntsman, who is a stereotypical (and, by the books, very successful) Republican in the fiscal and foreign relations sense and a common sense human being in social matters, is seen as a horrifying choice to many in our party.

How insane is it that the Republican talking heads on the news are willing to take the opinions of Donald Trump, perhaps the most famous professional swindler in the United States whose foreign policy/business creds are non-existent, on dealing with China over the ideas of Huntsman, someone who has intimate knowledge of that country’s culture, politics and business tactics?

(People fronting for Ron Paul actually had the gall to insult Huntsman because he knows one of the native languages of our largest trading partner. I have rarely seen such sickening tactics on the national stage.)

How insane is it to kowtow to the blatant hatred and religion-based bigotry of Rick Santorum and Rick Perry, the current mouthpieces of members of the GOP who cry about Democrats passing overly restrictive laws but in the same sob extol the need for federally-mandated teaching of Creationism and the utter requirement for a Constitutional ban on same sex marriage, instead of the tolerance of Huntsman, who apparently knows how to read a book besides the Bible?
