Hmm. Interesting. CURIOUS, Even.

Jon Huntsman, the last hope of sanity in the GOP presidential candidate field, is apparently caving to the Right when it comes to Climate Change:
I don’t know, I’m not a scientist, nor am I a physicist, but I would defer to science . . . The scientific community owes us more in terms of a better description of explanation about what might lie beneath all of this.
Interesting that when it comes to global warming, Republicans can cast doubt on it by saying "hey, I'm no scientist", and yet have no problem demanding there is ZERO doubt in their minds that the right thing to do for the economy is lower taxes on the super-wealthy, without ever claiming "hey, I'm no economist."
