Jon Huntsman: Civil equality is a conservative value
since when, do you have tape, emails? the right has had nothing but disdain for civil equality, it takes from them and gives it to the one's they have been told pull up in their Cadillacs to get their food stamps, always the assertion refers to the Black and Hispanic communities never do they mention the biggest receivers of those social nets
Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich recently offered to attend an NAACP convention to explain why African-Americans "should demand paychecks instead of food stamps." And he has described President Barack Obama as "the most successful food stamp president in American history."While the Republican presidential race has brought the welfare issue to the forefront, critics say it has also resurrected stereotypical images of the black "welfare mother" having out-of-wedlock babies so she can stay home and live large off the taxpayers.
talk like this relegates you to today's right wing, the back burner with no flame.
The right needs to push for marriage equality alongside the nine states that have granted it, the former presidential candidate argues. As a happily married man, Huntsman notes that "there is nothing conservative about denying other Americans the ability to forge that same relationship with the person they love." That doesn't require trampling on religious beliefs; religious groups wouldn't have to recognize relationships they oppose, even if the state does.
i don't believe in right wing change i feel the kumbaya they are spouting in one breathe is contradicted by the next. they would have to accept things they for years have claimed as "religious values", for their vote.
like the other republican gov.'s who platformed for the people ist day in the chair start dismantling voter priviledge and unions they promised new number one job, jobs, jobs, jobs but you got a fabricated effrot to trump that promise in favor of the 2008 one that would have put them in office where they would set about your destruction.
Pres.'s re-election has forced them to back down off the extremes if not for Pres. where do you think your state would be especially after they sent all decisions "back to the states?
