He says it went too far, that Obama made mistakes in backing the Arab protesters in Egypt and Yemen over the dictators in those countries because the dictators were "our friends". And some people actually think this man is actually presidential material?? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/11/12/herman-cain-arab-spring-gop-debate_n_1090549.html

Nothing new we have backed dictators before when those in power felt it would further the US interests.

And like George Washington said, "We should avoid foreign entanglements." And Rick Perry was right when he said, "My foreign aid budget will start at zero dollars!" At least he got one thing right.

Pity nobody told your boy Reagan that.

The Bush administration tried to bring democracy to Iraq at the point of a gun and that was fine with all the neo-cons. But Arabs begin fighting for their freedom, and it's "gone too far"? I better begin to remember that this country believes in freedom only when it is convenient to do so.

He was implying that we should have backed the dictators over the protesters.

Huntsman is the only GOP candidate that really has any foreign policy experience. Just saying . . .

Too bad he'll likely be out of the race long before the PA primary. If, by a slim chance he is still in it, I may just change my registration to vote for Huntsman--though I don't see him getting the nomination. He is far too reasonable for today's republican party.
