A Fiscal Message For Huntsman, Hatch, And Bennett
2009 April 20

by utahrattler

The message comes in the first couple of minutes, but it is worth listening to in it’s entirety as the message applies to the entire political leadership:

The crowd’s reaction also did not escape Michelle Malkin’s attention:

If only the condescending cable TV anchors at CNN and MSNBC had paused from wallowing in gutter puns about tea bags, they might have reported an even more significant phenomenon: Tea Party protesters were as vocal in their criticism of Republicans as they were of Democrats. In Salt Lake City, Utah, a crowd of 2,000 repeatedly booed GOP Sens. Orrin Hatch and Bob Bennett, who both supported the $700 billion TARP bailout, and protested GOP Gov. Jon Huntsman’s decision to accept $1.6 billion in porky stimulus funds.

Edit: One thing Malkin did miss, however, is that not only were they all booed but the crowd also chanted “send them home” on top of that.

2. Apparently our idiot governor Rick Perry was talking up secession again
But he's more of a douchebagger than a teabagger.

3. I liked Huntsman's bipartisan viewpoint of serving A President, regardless
of party affiliation. Judd Gregg he is not.

In addition to this Asian qualifications, I think it's great that he has an adopted daughter from China.
