Paulistas on the Fringe

In China and India people don't much like having daughters. In both countries many girl babies are aborted and many more are carried to term but abandoned or given up for adoption.

The reasons in the two countries are somewhat different but the results are the same. This is a sad business, one that ultimately will be destructive to countries where it happens.

Now people campaigning for Ron Paul have criticized Jon Huntsman for having two adopted daughters, one each from India and China. Huntsman is P.O.'ed about this criticism and he has every right to be mad.

Paul has blown it off as craziness done by extreme supporters. Maybe...but Paul has a track record of attracting fringe supporters, this isn't the first time. You can see a story about this here at RealClearPolitics.
