greasy politician with a whore for a wife is “tough” deserves to be called out as a sap.

Second time this morning I notice your using that same description. Is this the level of discourse we want here, especially considering we are always being watched?

The unctious religios need to realize that they can be as pro life as they want, when Hahakmed is standing behind them with a knife to their throat, he is not going to care if they are pro-life.

All of the "Fred Heads" should take note of this quote:

"...There is a tide in the affairs of men,Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;Omitted, all the voyage of their lifeIs bound in shallows and in miseries.--William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar (1599)2.

Let us face it usually on FR , when we say "conservative" we mean "pro-life." Nothing else matters. This is a thin reed to build a party on.

It is a good thing we Evangelicals have no lock step nomination in mind. We never did anyhow, but now we will have to address what is the proper conservative position and to what degree do we choose to have government interfere in the lives of others who do not believe as we.

Altogether, I think this is a favorable change in the party. The only question is whether it is favorable short term--it surely is favorable long term.

Take a look at Tancredo. As an evangelical, I am in agreement with him on the issues.

Some evangelicals, however, are wary of backing a second-tier candidate.

This attitude gives us RINO's every time. The main stream media declares who the major candidates are . . . only two conservatives, Goldwater and Reagan, broke through the media guantlet in the last 70 years. Time to think for ourselves.

Chuck Hurley was Senator Switchback's roommate in college.

No joke.

I am joining you in supporting Duncan Hunter. I guess my only question now is, if he loses, who will I vote for in the general election and who stays on my “will never vote for” list.

You have bought the twisted lies of liberals and ignore the interference liberalism and even libertarianism places on all. Take a few giant steps back and look at the bigger picture. When public school children are being taught to think homosexuality is just another choice equal to heterosexuality, I would call that interfecence. Etc. Everyone's political position causes some sort of interference for those who disagree with it.
