What can we expect from a poster dumb enough to pimp for Romney elitists Bill Kristol and the NYT? You are in with the elitists...not me!
Among those who Perry would consider for VP...you won’t find Romney or Cain!
Are you so stupid that you actually think Perry is in cahoots with the Romney people who hate him? You have to be completely nuts!
Whether you can admit it or not...Romney and Cain are joined at the hip!
Quoting Kristol and NYT beats all..unless you’re pimping for Romney, which is obvious!
How about you drop the smear attack campaign postings and try making a case for your candidate for once?
More Romney/Perry....Obama-planted smears?
Ha!-Ha!-Ha!
That's because they either work for the government and have a vested interest in status quo or have the attention span of a gnat.
Cain's 999 plan simplifies and eliminates payroll taxes, death taxes and capital gain taxes. Imagine not having to figure out income taxes anymore.
Cain is right about the lack of a sense of humor. I see it here on FR. too. We are supposedly conservative patriots fighting to preserve our beloved Republic with an exchaange of ature ideas.. But too many of us, instead of sticking with that program, log in to unload a mean spirit. Rather than selling the good points of their candidate, they stoop to personal name calling, which is not only against Free Republic rules, but boringly juvenile as well.
A candidate running his mouth about such and such a country when he ain't in the loop makes that country nervous AND DANGEROUS at the prospect of his winning the most powerful position on earth.
Were you always a Cain supporter? Perhaps you were in the mindset of many here who thought we should wait forever for Palin to enter the race?
You have to be alone here for coming down on Perry because he was late entering the race.
Up until a couple of weeks ago, most here were still waiting for Sarah so you can’t possibly attack Perry on that very lame line of thought and get any traction.
Also Perry has ties to many Tea party groups and was even endorsed in his last election by Sarah Palin.
Did you see the advertisement that the Tea Party express is running in Perry’s behalf?
I would like to see that Herman Cain is doing homework nonstop to get up to speed on the issues he never had to bother with when running Godfather’s Pizza. I don’t care that he doesn’t know where Mali is, but he should be making himself an authority on the Middle East. He should know everything possible about oil/gas/energy/drilling. Drop the book tour immediately and stop smiling so much. This is a crisis.
Cain’s got a great and infectious personality. A lot of people (53%) thought the last guy did, too. I don’t want us to jump from the fire to the frying pan. I want to jump from the fire to the fire extinguisher.
I’m not sure what you mean by neoconservative. I’m a conservative, yes. Neoconservative, labels sometimes put you in a box. I’m very conservative.
Even now, I'm not so sure what people mean by "neoconservative." What it means now isn't what it meant 10 or 20 or 30 or 40 or 50 years ago.
And nobody running for president is going to want to put themselves in a box on this: "I am a neoconservative" or "I am not a neoconservative" is the sort of thing that generates a lot of heat without shedding much light. To change the metaphor, it's painting a target on one's back with no real reason to do so.
Cain went on to say, in response to the host's pressing the question:
I’m not familiar with the neoconservative movement. I’m familiar with the conservative movement and let me define what I mean by the conservative movement. Less government. Less taxes. More individual responsibility.
I don't take that as meaning "I have never heard of the neoconservative movement" but as meaning "That's not what I came here to talk about." Most people would do the same.
This is really disappointing from Commentary. They come to a conclusion only an idiot would arrive at.
They start by calling him ignorant and end by hinting at conceit or hubris, when the ignorance and arrogance is all their own. It's especially bad since they are creating the kind of myth that people are going to repeat and spread and embellish.
You know perfedtly well that funny business has absolutely nothing to do with humor.
Well probably more than we currently know about the part time preacher from Antioch Baptist Church North - Atlanta. When they apply the proctoscope to him then we may know a little of his history, associates, dealings, beliefs, etc. Until then we are pretty much clueless.
How does repeating the Democrats mistake of electing someone with minimal experience make for a good decision on the part of the Republicans?
Lots has been written and spoken by Cain if you care to learn it.
So you choose to be the same about Perry? Clueless.
Commentary must be anti-semitic since, as many here have said, use of the term neo-conservative indicates same.
Almost every governor who has run for president is light on the foreign policy issue. While senators and house members are a little stronger in that department, they lack the executive know how needed desparately in that office (see Obama). A lot can be learned on foreign policy in the year 'till the election but access to a lot of intelligence info will be lacking.
My free advice to Cain:
Create foreign policy advisory team for you, including people widely respected, get up to date so you can at least make intelligent comments in debates, and start forming Cain Foreign Policy principles.
Get john bolton on board.
I like Cain’s focus on the US rather than inviting Muslims into the country and helping them build Mosques and teaching our students “all the great things Muslims have done”.
