Next question re: Mt. Soledad cross and the ACLU.

Would you preserve memorial landmarks containing religious symbols from orgs like the ACLU?

All say yes.

[padre35]

“..the credibility of any...”

Why is that if you don’t mind my asking, I can see that you are a Chaplain ret.

That is if one can ever really retire from that service.

[Guenevere]

Someone's going to (& already has) legislated 'morality'...

...depends on whether it's their 'morality' or mine...

I'd rather vote for the one who shares my view!

[RasterMaster]

Dish 262 or the net....

[Eric Blair 2084]

Say what you will about Ron Paul, but he would be a better choice than Giant Douche or Turd Sandwich.

[JTN]

Good for Paul. It’s none of the Gubmint’s damn bidness. Bingo

[Samba]

How about...

[jmyrlefuller]

Would you support easing restricitons on churches in politics?

All say yes.

[CounterCounterCulture]

veto so-called non-discriminatory act?

all yesses

oy this is too fast to type all the questions...

[padre35]

Judge Moore did run for the Republican Nomination for Governor but lost his bid for that Nomination.

[jmyrlefuller]

Would you rescind Mexican truck executive order? All say yes.

[tyke]

Judge Moore is one of my heroes. I always thought he might run for office, but not so far.

He ran for governor of Alabama last year and lost heavily in the Republican primary. I doubt he would fare any better than anyone on the panel tonight should he choose to run for president.

[dschapin]

Everyone said that yes they would be open to scientific oproaches that contradict evolution.

[CounterCounterCulture]

Have no idea if C-SPAN will rebroadcast this. Hope they would.

[Sun]

“Next question: will you oppose government-mandated health care?

All say yes.”

Romney would have a problem with that one. No wonder he didn’t show up.

[Eric Blair 2084]

Would you support a commission to monitor it?

What the heck kind of question is that? Great, appoint a crack blue ribbon UN committee to "study" Darfur in order to determine that yes, people are being slaughtered and raped...and then do nothing. Useless.

[DocRock]

I'm back for a while...

"will you solidly sand behind Israel to keep her land?"

all Green lights

[jmyrlefuller]

Do you support Israel/oppose the roadmap to peace at all costs?

All say yes... I’m surprised at Paul’s yes answer to be honest.

[CounterCounterCulture]

Stand beside Israel to keep their land?

All yesses

[GovernmentIsTheProblem]

“You may have to do a bit better then that I’m afraid.”

I did, but you ignored those comments.

Keyes supports reparations. GO ahead and defend it as a conservative value.

Brownback and Huckabee are amnesty supporters. GO ahead and defend it.

I’ve sent money to Tanc’s PAC and to Hunter directly, but neither have a chance.
