Hunter and Tancredo were the only fellows up on stage tonight who are CLEAR conservatives; they are clear constitution and clearly on the right side of every direct issue facing America today. Some of the other second tier candidates (Huckabee, Gilmore) might be ok. MIGHT BE, they both need more light shone on them.
As for the debate itself, it was 1000x better than the garbage of the first debate (which was a total MSM joke). It wasn't perfect (come on - the minority question at the end??? wtf was that??) but it was much better.
“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.
