Our Manchurian candidate
A few Republican governors are pre-campaigning for their party's president nomination, including Louisiana's Bobby Jindal, Massachusett's former Gov. Mitt Romney and our own Jon Huntsman.So what makes our el jefe stand out? For one thing, Huntsman has taken a high-profile position supporting gay civil unions. And he plays jazz keyboards. Did I mention he's a Chinese Communist sleeper agent. No, really.
Huntsman gave an interview with a right-wing blog while he was in Michigan impersonating a presidential candidate. In the middle of the usual jive about rebuilding the Republican Party, he slipped up:
What is important for the [GOP] party is that we engage in a meritocracy of ideas and let a thousand ideas bloom."Let a thousand ideas bloom" happens to be a Chairman Mao aphorism!
Ha. Ha. And Utah conservatives think Obama's a socialist. Next Legislative session Huntsman plans to call for a Great Leap Forward and collectivizing the turkey farms in Sanpete County.

He's a mormon. And he presided over the most homophobic state in the US for many years.
Utah is somewhere to the right of Alabama, the Alabama of the 1950s.
Do you really think that this guy can come out in support of civil unions (only after he actually had a chance to do something about it) and hope that people will forget where and what he comes from?
I for one would actively campaign against him. I can't forget what Utah has been like for all this time. No person who could be governor of that state deserves to sleep at night, much less run for national office.
Huntsman and Utah are an embarrassment to the civilized world. He can't just whitewash himself and hope that everyone forgets.
Hey Anonymous, move to another state. It really is that simple. Signed, Your Mother
