(Community Matters) Republican Utah Governor John Huntsman, Jr on GOP Congressional leadership
“I don’t even know the congressional leadership.” “I have not met them. I don’t listen or read whatever it is they say because it is inconsequential — completely.” Huntsman added that he would not reject any money from President Obama’s stimulus. While he criticized what he saw as misdirected spending in bill, he said Republicans had no credibility on fiscal responsibility.
“Our moral soapbox was completely taken away from us because of our behavior in the last few years,” he said. “For us to now criticize analogous behavior is hypocrisy. We’ve got to come at it a different way. We’ve got to prove the point. It can’t be as the Chinese would say, ‘fei hua,’ [or] empty words.”
by the way, can we all just agree Michael Steele is a total tool?
