Jon Hunstman:
Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman joined the Republican presidential contest on Tuesday, pledging to run a civil campaign and claiming that he and President Barack Obama both love the United States but have different visions of its future.
Huntsman,said he respects Obama but added that he and the president have “a difference of opinion on how to help the country we both love.”
“ I don’t think you need to run down anyone’s reputation to run for president,” Huntsman told the crowd of 100 gathered at a pavilion jutting out into the Hudson River. “I respect my fellow Republican candidates. And I respect the president. He and I have a difference of opinion on how to help the country we both love.”
“But the question each of us wants the voters to answer is who will be the better president, not who’s the better American,” Huntsman said.

Wild Thing’s comment…….
Our country is at war and I am NOT talking about the many wars our troops are fighting in for all of us. I am speaking about the war against the enemy within, the enemy in our Oval Office and many of the other offices in our government. Obama’s administration all of them.
The last thing we need is a kiss up to obama in any way.
Nothing like starting your campaign by saying your opponent loves his country ,while watching that opponent sell us out at every turn.
To hell with civil! I want black eyes, bloody noses, loose teeth, boxed ears and b!tch slapped RINOs.
I want to hear the wailing and gnashing of liberal teeth as they scream of injustice, unfairness, and mean-spiritedness! I want the candidates going into a debate wondering if they are going to walk out. No podiums to hide behind and maybe have the debate in a chain link cage.Then we’ll see who is really committed.
During Huntsman’s announcement, he referred to obama being a good man, good president, Then why is huntsman running against such a good man. What does huntsman bring to the table different from obama.
He’s claiming, Huntsman is, to be another Ronald Reagan, hence the Announcement where he was. When Reagan made his announcement he gave a blistering speech criticizing Carter. This guy said nothing but praise obama. Seems to me, Huntsman is the democrat Trojan horse, being snuck into our city.
Well we all know that this loser along with Mitt Romney, will become the Media Favorites to win the Republican Nomination. They will be touted, praised and reported on with nothing but the greatest respect.
The Lefty media knows full well that if either of the above named losers runs, the Country will be guaranteed another 4 years of Barry Soetero and his Marxist/Socialist buddies.
You are right on the money, WT, when you say that this country is at war with our present leadership.
What the RNC and the other arrogant elitists, who claim to be Conservatives, don’t realize is that their influence among the rank and file Republicans has all but disappeared.
Until they start recognizing the likes of Bachmann, Perry,Palin, Pence and West, they are going to all but assure that all future elections will result in victories for the opposition.
I’ve written to both Huntsman and McStain and told both that I will never be civil to my enemy who wishes to destroy my country and that I will do whatever is necessary to remove them from power. Our enemy (the left) attacks us 24/7/365 and will not let up so let us fight fire with supreme and overwhelming firepower. The left progressive party must be turned to dust.
The only reaching across the aisle I want Republicans doing is with a baseball bat.
Mark,good way to put it, I agree.
“Huntsman is the democrat Trojan horse, being snuck into our city.”
Sean, your righit about them being media favorites. Now we have to hear how the rino’s are the answer to get obama out of office.
Eddie, Yippeee I love it, thank you for doing that.
Bob, applause, good one.
