Huntsman Announcing His Candidacy on June 21st

Isn't this a thread about Huntsman? You seem slightly off topic.

Your Star, he isn't worth Arguing with. He's a giant balloon of rhetoric without any logic. He is fanaticism embodied. He could no more change his mind or tow anything but the extremist party line as he could spread wings and fly. He's not going to reply to you with anything but rhetoric.

Really.

Completely true. You will see things you don't want to see. You will get angry. You will wonder, why won't that idiot believe us that the Anointed One is the One.
It is because he is not Anointed. He is not the One.

He is the one term president Obama. The one who grew up a rabble-rouser steeped in Marxism. The one who attended a church where black liberation theology was preached every week. Long before I began enjoying this board, while still an intelligence officer, I was exposed to black liberation theology because of my study of Marxism-Leninism in the Soviet Union. It was a made-up theology designed to get the blacks in America to tend socialist. The Communist Party of the Soviet Union supported black liberation theology. They helped work out is tenets. They may have even funded its growth. And the one term president Obama soaked it up every Sunday for more than 20 years.

Just for fun, I found a link. The Marxist Roots of Black Liberation Theology | Acton Institute

It is indeed. Misterveritis turned it into an Evil-Obama thread. Third post in the thread.

Your Star started attempting to debate with him, but then when he proved he didn't care about proof or evidence, continued to do so. As if repeating herself is going to change his mind or something.

It's really all quite silly.

Edit: Awww. And now he's trying to draw me into his silly argument again. Isn't it cuuuuute.

No, not really.


So, what are your thoughts on Huntsman, Anagram?

Personally, I can't stand him. He betrayed a promise to the people of Utah when he was running for Governor, jumping ship as soon as was humanly possible for a more prestigious and likely better paying position as an ambassador.

I'm proposing a sub-law to Godwin's law. In any thread in which Barack Obama is mentioned, it's only a matter of time before someone calls him a Marxist. Sub-sub-law -- it's only a matter of time before said person says that we don't need any evidence to convict him.

Convict him? LOL. I look forward to the one term president Obama being the former president or the ex-president. No conviction necessary. Just get him out of power.

I will take this opportunity to again point out that the only people who call Obama "The Anointed One" or "The Chosen One" are right-wing hacks.
 
My thoughts on Huntsman

It's a shame this thread turned into what it is. I've always thought Huntsman would be one of the more interesting candidates for people here to talk about. I'll try (and probably fail) to steer it back on track.

Huntsman seems to have the exact mix of political views to get a moderate like me to vote for him. He is fiscally conservative, but not extreme. He's moderate on social issues. And he believes we need to work closely with China in the future. In my opinion, he'd be the perfect candidate for the GOP to run against Obama.

:) It is an attitude problem. We love to point out to the Obamistas that they are just plain wrong. He is not a lesser god. Although he does believe it.

I'll try to help you get it back on track.

If that is what Huntsman believes, I might be convinced to vote for him. However, sounds like the sort of ideals that get one labeled a "RINO"
 
Because I believe Huntsman would be a better president than Obama. He knows that incessant spending is not the answer to our economic woes. He has much more foreign policy experience. And he is smart enough to know not to get hung up on the social issues that trip up most conservatives.

I'm a bit confused as to what a "RINO" is, would you mind explaining the term for me?

Anagram: But is he trustworthy?

I don't know enough about him to know. I honestly did not know anything about him, except that he was ambassador to China, until he announced. So these are the things I'm just now learning.

Anyone would be a better president that the one term president Obama. That might be sufficient to get my vote but I do not believe we are going to nominate a democrat-lite to run against a full blown Marxist. The Marxist will win.

"Republican In Name Only"

It's an epithet that the extreme right uses on anybody in the GOP who's anything close to moderate.
 
Now I am intrigued. I'll have to look up some more of these so called 'RINO"s

You're right though, Huntsman is actually fairly moderate. When I was a younger lad I thought he was a respectable sort of Republican, and I was heavily, heavily Democrat back then.

I don't think that he will be nominated either. But I think that the Republicans should. He would probably keep the Republican base because he is not Obama, and I think he would also heavily draw Independents and disaffected democrats.

That's it! You're going on the Ignore List.

Goodbye, glad to never see you again.
 
I'd really appreciate it if you guys didn't turn my thread into troll-bait.

Thank you.

We're discussing Huntsman, what do you Want us to do, hmm?

Please, guide us, oh glorious Thread-God, in our misunderstanding of your stated purpose. :lol:

Not really.

Yes, but now we're trying to.

So, instead of talking about whether or not we're talking about Huntsman... talk about Huntsman with us. What are your opinions of the man? His policies, his beliefs, his thoughts, his history of promise breaking?

Voldemort? In this thread? No! He's supposed to be dead!

Doesn't look too terrible to me. But then, there's very little there. More than anything the man needs to define himself as a Candidate more before I make a decision as to whether or not I'd be open to supporting him.
