We should ONLY trade with ALLIES, not COMMUNISTS who target our airplanes in international waters and hold our soldiers as HOSTAGES!

Only seen about ten minutes of the Republican Debate so far, and it is about a bizillion times better than the Democrate Debate in Las Vegas.

Pro gun question, guy with a shotgun says, “Don’t worry, you can answer any way you want.”

Hunter: “You should never throw a gun, you need to be safe with guns Jay.” Then onto a great RKBA answer. Strongly enforce (?) the 2nd Amd.

"Considering his stances, he might as well. I mean, it's not like they're taking away any voters from the other candidates. 95% of the Republicans think Paul is a kook, and of the 5% who don't, a lot of them probably joined the party the past few weeks."

Might get him another 1/2 percent of the kook vote, I wonder if he thinks when the next Comet passes a ship could be awaiting him.

McCain ad... featuring Hillary (who?)

Gun question, lifetime member of the NRA, we like our big guns. What is your opinion on gun control. Don’t worry (click click) you can answer however you like. LOL!!!!!

Duncan Hunter leads off. You gotta be safe with arms Jay. The right to keep and bear arms. American security. Go Hunter Go.

Thanks! Church is right around the corner though. :-)
Try to be back before the debate is over!

Poor Rudy is gonna drown on this one.

[MNJohnnie]

Yeah, your boy Paul sure did get his butt handed him. Glad to see you are finally waking up to how wholly unqualified for the job Paul is.

[Bahbah]

I wasn’t questioning his sincerity, just reporting his response.

I totally got that. I was just thinking out loud. No argument.

[Puddleglum]

And Paul’s position on the Jewish vote pretty much ended his candidacy for me, he does make good points but Geez, that is over the top for me..no thanks..

What'd he say?

[MaxMax]

Yea, I didn’t like the preacher in him..

[hercuroc]

Gurgle gurgle....

[redgirlinabluestate]

Whoa! You guys keep saying Mitt is slick when he is really quite earnest. He’s not even close to Huckabee in that department. It’s Mike Huckabee who is the true slickmeister. He’s got a great answer to squirm out of everything. Always ready with a joke. I see how he’s been able to rise to the top. I hope people eventually see through it though.

[Armedanddangerous]

Great gun control question..

Duncan Hunter had a great answer..shows he understands.

The Fink Guy got Guiliani too...hoo ya..

Rudy’s answer doesnt get me..and no they cant impose reasonable regs doofus..

[mylife]

Rooty Boooed!

[alicewonders]

Rudy’s not having a good night. I like these questions from real Americans.

[padre35]

Rooty...mi amici, we know where you stand on the 2nd amendment..crowd not feeling Rooty on the firearms thing...

[AmericanInTokyo]

Darn good answer on both Gun Rights AND Gun Responsibility, by Hunter. One of the best replies tonight. FANTASTIC. Really, absolutely SUPERB.

[Larry Lucido]

Agreed. I’m liking Hunter more every day.
