no problem.
Way to go Hunter.
Truely with so little
help from MSM?
Very good showing for
Duncan. Glad to see
this, since I can't
ever vote for Rudy
for all the reasons
most core conservatives
know.
Amen.
I agree with some of that, pissant, and I know that China is becoming a problem on several levels. But an anti-trader like Hunter could do great damage to the economy and I'm not sure he has the finesse to work his way through all the issues surrounding this matter.
Having said that, I've watched Hunter on C-Span and he handles himself well and is bright. Also, I think the powers that be in the GOP would take him aside and persuade him to change his mind about some of those issues in exchange for more support from the GOP.
Gertz has written about these issues regarding China and he's one of the few reporters I actually have respect for in DC.
I might have been a little overly optimistic :-)
I am always so amused by these hacks that come on here and try to tell us what's going on, like we haven't seen a million trolls before.
I spotted one earlier today and, sure enough, it's banned.
I guess the GOP has been hijacked by a bunch of liberals since Rudy won in South Carolina? "HA!"
Exactly how? By forcing China to end a one-sided trade relationship by opening up their own markets? In other words, the way free trade is SUPPOSED to work?
Ugh. You had to take away my joy and bring up Lindsey. LOL
My husband about strokes out when his name is mentioned.
And we were at a huge party once and someone holding the floor accepting a golf award mentioned Lindsey in some strange context and the entire crowd started muttering about Lindsey and how they wanted him gone.
Our former GOP chairwoman used to stand up for him but when I saw her a few months ago she did nothing but trash him.
Yah, THAT'S clearly a non-emotional, logical and reasonable response. :rolls eyes:
McCain may be a hothead, and he might not have the temperment to be President, but come on, give me a break. Giuliani is known for having a temper too.
With 81 of 92 precincts reporting, Giuliani garnered 158 votes. California Rep. Duncan Hunter was running in a close second with 152 votes and Arizona Sen. John McCain was third with 116 votes, according to county GOP officials.
Kansas Sen. Sam Brownback had 83 votes, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney had 80 votes and Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee rounded out the front-runners with 21 votes.
Nah, I expected Giulianni to get 1st in this one. Hunter came closer that I expected (in terms of votes, not position). McCain not getting 1st or 2nd isn't surprising considering how much damage he did to himself in this area in his last campaign. Anyway, a good place to start. :)
I watched it; it's pretty telling when you have to lie about what people can see with their own eyes.
AMEN. I've met Duncan Hunter and he's a great guy. I DO NOT TRUST RUDY ON THE JUDGE ISSUE.
Great cartoon! :)
You captured it perfectly.
And I am not alone.
No, you are not.
