Huntsman defends service as ambassador to China

[Ddstairclimber]

huntsman is a quitter

[LJ3pg23]

Romney just does not get it.

[Murph992]

This is without a doubt the best part of any republican debate

[ttiiyy]

Huntsman will never have the balls to challenge China. China is onw using its own economic power to threaten the US. It's very frustrating that American politicians won't get tougher to counter Beijing. Our country is so poor that we have to borrow money from China. I guess if this situation does not get improved, we will all have to learn Mandarin Chinese to beg our debt collectors for more money.

Epic rebuttal huntsman

[PGauding09]

HUNTSMAN HAMMER

[xOjbabyxO8]

i like huntsman hs gotta beat ronmey, ronmey sneaky and if he wins i bet we will find that out the hard way... i like ronmey's a sneaky bastard in the end and plus hes a mormon.

just like the way obama won, everyone thought he was going to bring GREAT change and all he did was bring DISASTER

[anubistiger]

Watching this is a constant reminder that I should not vote for Romney.

[Eruaphadriel]

LOL Santorum is standing between them going like, "Whuut?"

[supdudenotmuch11]

answer the fucking question

[nadamasdisponible]

epic indeed. wouldn't it be funny if huntsman and romney ended up on the same ticket, and then both put on suits and started campaigning door to door?

[Solarfactor]

Huntsman put Romney down like a rabid dog.

[VanillaSnow23]

Do Americans dislike Chinese people?

[sdfghjk80484]

My favorite part was when John Huntsman flew down with his wings wide open and said, "It's attitudes like that that divide our country"

[henman09]

Huntsman is the only intelligent and good Republican.

[mindoermatta]

Romney just helped Obama dodge a bullet!!!

Thanks Willard... Obama will wipe the floor with your tush!

[miketwo345]

I'm really glad Huntsman won't get the nomination, because he would probably beat Obama.

4 more years! :)

[Humanbrain001]

Why doesn't this guy get any of the attention? Why are clowns like Perry, Paul, Gingrich, Romney, and Santorum getting more attention?

[jivetome]

@Humanbrain001 Because the American media only cares about 1. Radical retards 2. Flip floppers 3. Preachers

[redsox9890]

@Humanbrain001 agreed

[harrisjavon34]

@Humanbrain001 I'm an Obama supporter. But I can tell you why Huntsman and Paul don't get the attention. It's because of the establishment GOP. To them it's all about a political game and trying to get power. Nothing more nothing less. Huntsman don't want to play it that way. Thats why he didn't mind being apart of Obama's administration because he put country first. He cares about the people despite your political views the establishment just want Obama to lose and if that means

[harrisjavon34]

@harrisjavon34 not helping Obama to try to get the country back on its feet then so be it. Same thing with democrats. I think people like Huntsman truly got a good heart and I wouldn't mind having in Washington. As well as Obama, Ron Paul, Greyson from FL. People that truly would work together. The rest of those idiots however its just a political game and thats why this country will lose unfortunately.

[Vote4RonPaulLiberty]

@harrisjavon34 Good heart, or heartless?

An Internet video painting Jon Huntsman as a Chairman Mao-style Manchurian Candidate, first believed to have been made by Ron Paul supporters, was actually created by members of the official Jon Huntsman campaign in an effort to smear the Texas congressman.

(take out the spaces in the link)

[ohjawillkommen]

@Vote4RonPaulLiberty And I'm sure you're not biased by the username. Paul needs no smear. You should realize that if Paul is being smeared, that's good. It gives him more attention, and makes him look like the underdog, which is what makes him popular.

[Vote4RonPaulLiberty]

@ohjawillkommen I'm voting for Ron Paul. I will promote his stance on the issues and my support for his candidacy. I won't lie or embellish. I presented factual information for other people's consideration. Information it would appear from your post that you agree with. So why in the hell are you accusing me of being biased? To be biased is to be unbalanced. There is nothing unbalanced in my post. Nothing.

[ohjawillkommen]

@Vote4RonPaulLiberty I didn't call you unbalanced. Bias does not always imply lying, and "embellish" is much stronger than what I was trying to say. Bias is unavoidable, and you blamed Huntsman personally, saying that he was "heartless". Huntsman's campaign has been awful so far, and they're primarily responsible for Huntsman's poor poll performances, despite his reasonable stances. I wouldn't be surprised if members of Huntsman's campaign team did it themselves.

[Vote4RonPaulLiberty]

@ohjawillkommen Part 1 - What would you expect me to think of a man who when questioned refused to come clean and clear Dr. Paul's good name? He has since not come forward to do so despite it being well known those who follow politics that his camp is responsible. To me it was always obvious. I saw his daughters compare candidates according to hairstyle. I had already seen them mock Herman Cain. I saw Huntsman's cruel yet silly and ineffective "Twilight Zone" ad against Ron Paul.

[Vote4RonPaulLiberty]

@ohjawillkommen Part 2 - First glance at Huntsman's Manchurian ad had me wondering how anyone outside his own family could've obtained home video of him in China. Then I noticed him speaking elementary Chinese every opportunity he gets. They inadvertently made it easy to ferret out the rest. What type of man frames another? What type of man singles out an honorable elder statesman as their punching bag? Huntsman was never my candidate of choice but I respected his diplomacy. So did Dr. Paul.

[rw5791]

@Vote4RonPaulLiberty good choice by huntsman..............quit while he's behind?

check pant wearing country club motherfucker..I'd like to kick his ass.

newt's a crybaby,perry is a mexican lover,paul's a nut 911 truther and santorum is too green so................who's left?

[ohjawillkommen]

@Vote4RonPaulLiberty I did come across a bit too snarky and mean, though. Sorry about that. I'll admit it: I'm a bit biased in favor of Huntsman. However, I do like Ron Paul. He and Huntsman are easily the most sane and intelligent GOP candidates. I would vote for him over Obama, which I'm not sure I could say for the other Republican candidates besides Paul and Huntsman.

[Vote4RonPaulLiberty]

@ohjawillkommen I appreciate your recognition and accept your apology. We can never will anyone into being who we want them to be. Whatever your final decision weigh everything out as honestly as possible. Look at what's in front of you. Then dig deeper. For that is what's true.

[Humanbrain001]

@harrisjavon34 I totally agree with you, and I am an Obama supporter as well. All I am saying is that we need more attitudes like Huntsman and Obama who are willing to work with the opposition. This contrasts from these other Republicans who are not country first but Conservatism first. It's unfortunate that the GOP endorses these other Conservative clowns.

[TheCmac1966]

Republicans have been searching for a "Reagan Republican" here he is. Smart, moderate, reasonable, principled. Too bad the fanatics that have taken over the GOP can't understand this.

[Mfralick3ify]

Huntsman is one of the only genuine guys of the bunch. Obama will win this election again, but Huntsman would make a great Republican nominee.

[TheMortybob]

Willard...WTF are you jabbering about?  HUNTSMAN 2012!

[ruffzspree]

Plastic Man aka Willard Romney got his plastic hull cracked by that hit. The Romney ship will be sinking. May not be soon but slowly and surely it will go down when Obama fires the last torpedo. I am not a republican but I really do respect Jon Huntsman. He is a good man, sane, and is nothing like the Republican party is today. It is not the same party from 40 years ago. It went awry. 90% of the party is filled with loonies and disgusting human beings.

[derrickdfu]

Let's go Huntsman!

[srt8cashmedia]

Wish All Republicans had Common, Rationale-Sense like him.

[akt5131]

"This nation is divided because of attitudes like that"...epic.

[knowledgemonger]

Huntsman scored a direct hit on Romney. He is right on whether you serve when asked. Romney is wrong nearly to the point of treason in putting the good of the party and political interests before the good of the nation.

[Tryceattack]

YEEE HUNTSMAN

[pinkycheeks]

YESSS. i hope romney felt stupid for saying something so stupid.

[shutup12345z]

Good job in putting Romney's cheap political tactics down!! Ron Paul 2012!

[yieldhog]

I WAS a Republican but could not bring myself to vote for McCain after his diasterous decision to name Palin as his running mate. I voted for Obama and have no regret. But Huntsman holds the potential to produce a debate that will elevate the political process in America - finally. I hope he has time to pull this off.

[DarkFrostX5]

You people are kidding me? this Commie loving peice of shit technocrat will not win a damn thing, Ron Paul FTW!

[mormonguy101]

@DarkFrostX5 what a moron, lol

[SiriusMined]

@DarkFrostX5

How is Huntsman "commie loving"? Because he was ambassador to China? Regan and both Bush's had people as ambassadors to China too. Where those people "commie loving"?

[redryan20000]

Huntsman needs to keep straight, his last answer on global warming was a bit of a religious flop. I love his pro-scientific stance, keep it up!

[cseymore]

Huntsman is clearly the most sane, principled, honest and reasonable of the GOP candidates. And that's exactly why he won't get the Republican nomination.

[xdwere1]

@cseymore ron pual is far more better

[syphe101]

@xdwere1 "Far more better" WTF? Proper English anyone? Lets hope Paul isn't elected because he will abolish the Dept. of Education which will definitely not help you.

[xdwere1]

@syphe101 hey i cans talks how ever i muther fucking pleases . lol this is the internet not my AP English essay

[laliisx]

Jon Huntsman 2012

[ruffzspree]

Huntsman is too sane and good of a guy to be lumped with these clowns. He should be a democrat at least a moderate one. I have no idea why he is a republican.... the party is not what it was 40 years ago. Its filled with a bunch of loonies now.

[jakesteel1]

Huntsman drastically increased spending after saying he wouldn’t. He supported both TARP and the stimulus. Threatened his state with a health care mandate. Flip flopped on cap and trade. Tried to create a state level Fannie Mae Freddie Mac in the Utah Housing Corp.

.

Wrote love letters to both Obama and Clinton...

.

Anyone being bankrolled by the Rothschilds cant be good for America.

Im sorry, but the facts done lie. Its one flip flopping liar after another.

[ComfortableLate]

So Mitt Romney is saying if you dont agree with my conservative views you are not American. Is there any thing that is more un-American than that?

[spartarheel]

Huntsman 2012!!!

[mauibrad]

George W. Bush appointed #Huntsman to be Deputy U.S. Trade Representative during period of ballooning trade deficits & deindustrialization.

Under George W. Bush, #Huntsman was tasked with guiding the accession of China into the World Trade Organization (WTO).

[MetrazolElectricity]

Flawed but still better than romney and santorum.

[stukajunker88]

@MetrazolElectricity Best quote.

[NH4HuntsmanJr]

How dare he attack a patriot like Huntsman. Mitt Romney dodged the draft while protesting for the Vietnam war. When asked if his sons would serve in the wars he supports he tried to make out that them going around in a campaign bus lying for their dad is comparable with military service. Jon Huntsman's sons serve their country like their dad. Mitt Romney's sons make racist remarks about Obama's birth certificate and serve their own self interest like their dad.

Huntsman 2012!

[Luthe0]

Wow. I love Huntsman. He is real.

[ZoomZip]

wow fucking romney. even tho huntsman served his country, romney cant get over the fact that he did it for a democrat president. Huntsman is amazing and is probably the, if not the most sane and logical candidate

[skinchen]

haha would love to sit down and have a chat with Mr huntsman...such a cool dude :)

[gotsoul123]

if youre a registered republican in new hampshire, THUMBS UP IF YOURE VOTING FOR HUNTSMAN

[murk2002]

Mitt Romney is a disgusting person. He will pander or say anything to get the Republican nomination.

[gotsoul123]

HUNTSMAN 2012. the reason why congress doesnt work is because of people like Romney who believe that republicans and democrats shouldnt work together.

[blaquemark]

Sounds like idealouge proceeds service to country...hmmm! Anyway...willard was checkmated by John with a slap to his face for good measures.

Cross the aisle John. The gotp doesn't like smart people.

[BlackIcexxi]

He got Romney there.

[derrickdfu]

Huntsman 2012!!! Let's go.

[pikapikachu25]

Such a great quote

[CStack2Ci]

Huntsman slams it to Romney, excellent!!

[Pzhrant]

Romney is off my mind now. Huntsman - that's who I'm voting for.

[t5e2]

Obama appointing Huntsman to be the ambassador to China was a power play. He knew Huntsman was a strong contender to be a presidential candidate. Obama sent him far and away. It was a smart political move. Huntsman took the job, only built on his resume. Good job.

[crumbtrey]

There's already a fair amount of pain going on already. These bastards prefer to ignore the results of their handiwork in the form of record foreclosures, tent cities, economic suicides.

Being an ambassador is not "serving" your country. It's nothing more than a damned government job. Huntsman isn't risking his life.

[anubistiger]

@crumbtrey He was chosen by Obama to be ambassador of China, because he had all the necessary qualifications! He speaks Chinese for goodness sakes! He left his job as governor of Utah where he was sitting on an 80% approval rating. He could have just stayed, but when asked to take on these duties he did it. He did indeed put his country first as he spoke for dissidents in China, and built on our trade relationship with them.

[VideoMask93]

@crumbtrey He still was serving our president in a crucial role, no matter if he was risking his life.

[blaquemark]

@crumbtrey ...interesting,but pointless! When the POTUS ask you to *SERVE* your country...drop the party tag. COUNTRY FIRST was John McCain's campaign slogan...you don't think he knew somethin you don't know?

[PBCrewOfficial]

99% of my memories from the Republican debates will be negative. They will be of a rabid audience booing a soldier serving overseas just b/c he is gay, an audience cheering at executions & the thought of an uninsured person dying, the "Oops!' moment, a $10,000 bet, and constant lies, vitriol & inaccurate partisan talking points.

This is the one moment from the GOP debates that made me proud. Thank you, Huntsman.

[Bertramsharpshot]

Boom.

[BKProductionsKPT]

Jon Huntsman is by far the best of the field. He is principled, honest, sincere, educated, experienced, and will perform excellently as president.

[bumpy0027]

@BKProductionsKPT All these qualties make him not a choice for generally unprincipled, uneducated, inexperience majority population of America :)

[dustinshadbolt]

That response definitely made up my mind. You have my vote Jon.

[mariofoxlink]

John Huntsman is the best.

[Craigipedia]

that John Huntsman would have to defend himself against the idiots on the board is silly
