Wow, thanks for posting them.

The top four listed in that post are strictly "No way Jose".

Well maybe Romey would get a second look, but no way this guys is going to vote for an abortionist - or gun grabber - or anyone who won't protect this nation by closing the borders.

Fool me once....

"You know, I'm seeing an awful lot of people jumping on Hunter on this thread that have said he doesn't have a chance of winning. What's up with that?

Me thinks they doth protest too much."

They sure do protest too much, and isn't it kind of a poetic justice that this thread is turning into a pro-Duncan Hunter thread?

They make wise cracks, and we give facts.

LOL!

Respect the Queen of all Typos!!

In the meantime he supported things like partial birth abortion, which less than 10% of the electorate supports. That's not a moderate position, it's a far-left position that even most democrats don't hold.

Rudy splits the socon base.

No candidate has ever won a republican presidency with a split base. Rudy is doomed.

No worries, I'm not bothered by it, I have faith that we'll win out in the end. I just don't feel like argueing about the same things over and over again. Maybe another day, but I just finished a tough work week and just need to relax. Thanks for the support!

bump!

Free trade should be for FREE COUNTRIES - not Communist countries.

[Calpernia]

And, he is my guy!

That is why!

[Kevmo]

Then maybe this good man should be president.

Well it's been a great discussion. As Hunter starts to gain more ground - he'll have to sustain more & more attacks against his record - so we just have to get used to it & use our "asbestos keyboards".

I've got to turn in now - it's been fun. Goodnight everybody!

You are welcome.

'nite and sweet dreams.

It's called the Republican primary - not the Conservative primary.

- YES on No Child Left Behind

- YES on the 2003 Medicare Drug Benefit

There are a lot of anti-Hunter freepers who still defend these monstrosities to this day. I've only started reading this thread, but I expect the cognitive dissonance to be out in full force.

It's called the Republican primary - not the RINO Party.

I live in the Bible belt there's nothing that your going to post here that I haven't heard before.

Not to hijack this thread, nor that you will understand this snippet of my life, but heres a contemporaneous story that other may understand...

I was driving down a main street in a medium-sized Texas town today and passed a statue in front of a KofC building that was massive. This statue was made of steel and had four huge 3D fetuses with umbilical cords hovering in four wombs. To say the least I found it a bit odd and distasteful. As I continued down the road I noticed many Burma Shave type signs throughout the town with two hands, fingers touching, and a child dangling from the umbilical cord below where the fingers joined.

A few blocks further I decided to stop at a Walmart to see if I could find a pellet gun to kill some vermin around the ranch. On the way inside there were a bunch of teenagers. They had a table setup with homemade crucifixes and similar material. I asked them what they were doing and they said they were raising money to go out on a mission and preach to people. They asked if I wanted to buy something and I said 'no' but I'd be happy to donate some money to help them achieve their goal. Which I did.

What's the moral of this story? To me it's that even though I did not share their view of the world I respected their right to believe whatever they liked. That's the difference between people respect other's views and can accept people living their life the way they choose and people who think their way is the only way.

Exactly! Nam and China, even Russia now, Cuba, and a lot of other socialist countries do not believe in free trade.
They just want everything we have given to them, while they want us to buy their trinkets.

There is no such thing as free trade anyhow.

You think Fred Thompson would accept second billing? I don't think so. If he gets in, it will be for the marquee position.

Hunter also went 0 for 19 on the Flake anti-pork amendments.

The reason that Hunter and many others went against the Flake anti-pork bill is that the bill itself was flakey. For all his good intentions, the Flake bill was not a well written bill and it did very little to address the earmarking that he was trying to stop. Just because a bill sounds good doesn't mean that it is a well written meaningful bill.

No on NAFTA and CAFTA.....damn thats terrific....most people don't realize that these are designed to emasculate the middle class of America.
