Republican Presidential Candidate Debate #2 – Columbia, South Carolina 05/15/07 - Official Discussion Thread
Watch live coverage of the First-in-the-South Republican Party Presidential Candidate debate on FOX News Channel and FOXNews.com on Tuesday, May 15, at 9 p.m. EDT (6 p.m. PDT).
With all due respect, that is a ludicrous statement when applied to this site.
I hasten to add that I am not supporting anyone in the primaries... yet.
Slick Willard hasn't locked himself into any principled position in his entire political life. It's much harder to find an issue he hasn't flip-flopped on than it is to find one he has flip-flopped on. Much harder.
He even illustrated another flip-flop tonight I wasn't aware of. He said he once supported dismantling the Department of Education, but now doesn't think that's a good idea.
Do you agree with that, TAdams8591?
“Fred is going to jump in and the next day, I will be volunteering for his campaign.”
You got that right. I was looking at this debate to see who would be the best VP.
If we support Rudy in the primaries, then we deserve Hillary. Ultimately, as a democracy, God will give us the government we deserve.
If we cannot stand up as a Christian nation on this one issue, then we don't deserve better than Hillary.
Will God grant us mercy or judgment? How will we vote? Will we vote ourselves mercy, or judgment?
IMO a vote for Rudy is a vote for Hillary. A vote for Rudy is a vote for judgment.
Why the hell is scarry colmes there. PMS had no republicans on the dems debate.
This is the first I’ve heard of the Gala....Let me know if you have more info.
Thanks!
“In one breath he says that middle-eastern thinking is irrational (which I agree with - I wouldn’t shed a tear if the entire ME was nuked to oblivion tomorrow, and I think nation building of any sort is a terrible waste and terrible policy), and in the next breath he states that we should consider the reasons they have for attacking us????? There is a heap of cognitive dissonance going on there.”
Good spin, but I think what Paul said was to agree with Reagan that middle eastern POLITICS are irrational. Understanding our attackers and defusing their appeal to the region is different from picking sides in the MidEast...or maybe that’s the same to you.
They also showed a preference for Mclame in the post debate interview. Im disappointed in Hannity.
He really let him off the hook on the torture issue.
You are not being rational. You are being emotional. All one has to do is to look at your posts. All emotion, no fact. You are IGNORANT of the 2nd Amendment and its meaning. You are IGNORANT of the founding fathers' intent for the 2nd Amendment. You are IGNORANT of all the other nations that have banned this gun and that gun from different "types" of people.
Being ignorant is okay. I am ignorant in American Idol, Thermodynamics, and Basket weaving, but you and I are not stupid. Please look more into RKBA and the 2nd Amendment and at least give it respect even if you chose to not exercise it.
DOCROCK and I believe though, that a right that is not exercised is a right soon to be lost. We are law abiding, voting, informed citizens that will die (and even kill) to keep your rantings on this free medium. If you would like to go out and shoot sometime and you are in Little Rock, I would love to have you out on the range. You'll have a blast (literally).
Duncan Hunter is a solid man - good on issues...
But man oh man...
The guys looks like he’s pissed all the time. He has to find a way to appear nice - know what I mean.
My ex-wife said he looks constipated.
Thomspon/Hunter will destroy Hillary.
The NRA-ILA has said that your source is a lie yet you continue to post it.
Here is the NRA-ILA link that says EV’s sources are a lie.
Search- "Massachusetts - Firearms Reform Bill Sent to the Governor`s Desk" -Tuesday, June 29, 2004 “Here are just some of the points that the media (including The Boston Globe) got wrong.” http://www.nraila.org//Legislation/Read.aspx?ID=1149
“Actually- I think that would be a waste of Duncan’s talents. I would REALLY like to see him as Secretary of Defense in a Thompson administration.”
I could agree to that also. He would also be great as director of homland security.
Once again my Congressman shows why he will never be President.
Who would have thought that a Southern Congressman would get dressed down by a Yankee former Mayor of NEW YORK CITY, at a Republican debate in South Carolina, to thundering applause. And he still refused to stop digging his political grave on the subject of the Iraq war.
In that case, the spinners are idiots. Duncan Hunter needs to relax a bit, but he didn't hurt himself in this debate. He continues to gain name recognition, and Republicans will like where he stands on the issues.
LoL There is some truth in that!
Loosen up!
Fox News Text Poll is...
Paul 30%
Romney 27%
Rudy 16%
Give me a break.
Good night all.
Holey Moley! DU must have spike this for Fox News.
Yeh - I don’t mean to attack the guy.
