"We’re not going to win a national election if we become the anti-science party,” John Weaver, Huntsman’s chief strategist, said in an interview Wednesday. “The American people are looking for someone who lives in reality and is a truth teller because that’s the only way that the significant problems this country faces can be solved."
First off, "buffoon alert" - this Weaver cat is able to spit enough BS into one sentence to qualify for some kind of award. But, I state the obvious, he is after all a politicial strategist, that's what they are good at!
As for the American people looking for a truth teller, we like to think we are, but we rarely elect them to political office. Hey, maybe this is the change we've been waiting for.
His comment about the "science party" is funny. Does he know the difference between a conjecture, a hypothesis, a theory and a law? Does he understand that the concept of anthropogenic global warming is at best a conjecture? Does he have any idea what it would take to say "This proves climate change is predominantly driven by human activity"?
I doubt it. But that won't stop him from sounding off like someone who does know those things.
Thankfully, the Huntsman campaign is going no where.
