Huntsman pushing socialism

Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr. revealed his true colors after being re-elected. He admits to being a political "moderate" and is willing to take on conservatives.

Huntsman is a multimillionaire. He has little appreciation for those who actually work for their money. He is now eagerly looking forward to his "moderate agenda" by spending our money on state-funded health care (more taxes) and cap and trade of carbon credits — a costly scam inherited from Al Gore.

The Huntsman family has given generously to charitable groups. They are entitled to spend from their fortune as they see fit. The difference is we work hard for our money. We are not the benefactors of a fortune.

The governor bragged about making Utah financially stable. Now he is going to bust the bank on socialistic programs and defy conservatives. May the true conservatives in our Legislature stand firm against his socialistic ignorance.
