(9,033 posts)Who is that ditz Huntsman anyway? And anyone who--like Moore--claimed Booosh's economic plan was a winner, should be too ashamed to open his mouth in public.
Why do these people even have a voice? Why are they allowed on the teevee? What do you have to do to get booted from the Serious People's roster?
I know, I'm crying against the wind.

(9,033 posts)But he made some sexually offensive and explicit comments in German to the Swiss ski instructor I and a friend were with. She responded in her fluent German...
He left in a hurry--a coward on top of everything else. Swine. And yes, he was already married with children by then.
P.S. lousy skier too

(9,350 posts)Michael Lind, who was once employed by the Heritage Foundation wrote an article in which he claimed the leadership of the Heritage Foundation removed him from a project when he did not give them the argument they wanted
"My first assignment was to write a policy brief about presidential war powers. I was removed from the project after I wrote a draft that began with the observation that the U.S. constitution divides war powers between Congress and the president, and gives the most important war powers the power to declare war and to fund it to Congress. The higher-ups at Heritage reassigned the paper to a Wall Street Journal staffer, who provided them with what they wanted: a brief arguing that the president has absolute, uncontrollable power in foreign affairs."

(9,350 posts)She is the daugther of former Republican presidential candidate Jon Huntsman. Although she has at least a somewhat impressive resume she might have been helped by being the daugther of a former presidential candidate. It seems she had a career before her father's run, but she seems to have gained a higher profile after his run.
