Someone needs to call Ron Paul’s family and let them know that their crazy uncle has escaped from the attic again.

McCain was in the Senate...a little hard to explain he wasn’t part of the problem.

McCain complaining about cigarette taxes — he pushed them himself in the 90s.

The premise that we have a zero-sum economy is totally false. Another loaded question.

He doesn’t want wealth redistribution. He wants a sound monetary system.
As a smoker, I just found something to like about McCain! LOL!

Good line by Huckabee — nothing is going to discourage Americans from spending money.

Matthews is as expected; makes DNC talking point, then asks what candidate thinks of it.

McCain: We need to.....
do yada and yada and yada....
[Why haven’t you done any of that as a Senator, Senator? Instead of trying to assault the First Amendment. Maybe fixing the tax code and SS is more important, Senator, than steriods in baseball or high definition tv.]

Might as well say it now so I can cut and paste this response again.
Paul said what?
I think he said that we have too many billionaires and that it would be better if everyone suffered equally.
The only difference between him and Michael Moore anymore is 200 pounds.

(Acerbic by nature, not nurture)
McCain tells Paul to read “Wealth of Nations.”
Talks of entitlement programs. Need to get wasteful spending under control. Is the system fair? Sure it’s fair. We should fix our tax code.
Matthews asks Huckabee about his fair tax. Nothing will discourage Americans from spending money. It untaxes productivity. Ends the underground economy. The economy is doing terrifically well, but not for all. A fair tax lifts up everybody.
To: CounterCounterCulture
Huckabee: Watch people at the malls.
[Many site see and are not necessarily spending, Governor.]
