Sounds good will save that as a possible Christmas drink as I finish work on the 21st and not go back until the 3rd so will have ample time to try a few things.
Anchor baby provision was OK for years, and would be again if the numbers were reasonable.
On Slay the Nation, Hagel said the NIE is right but outdated so we should “engage” Iran... good luck, Chuck.
I can understand the plethora of girlfriends.
Even thought Fred is far from young and a long way from handsome, he still has .... sex appeal.
Huckabee is so much like Bill Clinton, it's bizarre. ok--it's scary.
One thing a few of us noticed in the past week is that Huckabee touts "Faith, Family, Freedom" as his campaign theme.
Try finding photos of his family. There are *very few* pics of his three grown children available on the internet, and none are on his website. Strange.
Well the bottom line on immigration is that a majority of Americans support the idea of secure borders, but aren’t willing support the measures to get it done because there is sympathy for the situation of individual illegals. Am I wrong?
Thanks.
Well, let’s be honest here: 6’5”, deep, authoritative voice, the omnipresent stern look on his face... the guy oozes “macho.”
His daughter is in one of his YouTube vids. I heard there is something negative about his son though.
Yeah, but he's McCain without the 'you never know what I'll do next' freakiness!
[I would say that the vast majority of Conservatives are in favor of tough tactics when questioning these Al Quida types.]
Brit was quick to point out that some Dems want even harsher methods. Situational memory, anyone? Of course, dems are the masters of that.
Understood, although Rudy has promised judges in the Roberts, Alito mold. There’d be hell to pay (Harriet Myers)if he tried something else. Worse than the Myers kerfuffel if a nominee was not of their mold.
If all his sons are like the one recently on the news, I would hide them away also.
Preacher’s kid syndrome gone wild!
Except, I can understand a preacher’s kid rebelling in those wholesome kind of ways, pot, beer, sex ...
but dog torture? that’s it for me.
I want to hear from candidates who are not predisposed to ignoring Federal law on the books.!!
“Well, let’s be honest here: 6’5”, deep, authoritative voice, the omnipresent stern look on his face... the guy oozes “macho”
Oh, yeah!
A few months ago he was arrested for trying to board a plane with a handgun.
He also seems not to have followed his father’s lead and is quite obese.

Probably his new movie, anti-war, of course, about a father whose soldier wife is killed in Iraq and he has to explain it to his kiddies. Cusack said the inspiration for this movie was when W would not let the filming of coffins of returning soldiers be filmed. Need I say more?
Aw come on...don’t toss that word “hypocritical” around at me.
I call a foul.
I understand that DuMond was considered to be a victim of the Clinton machine regarding his very distant relationship with DuMond’s first victim, Ashley Stevens to Clinton.
There were a whole lot of other folks clammering for DuMond’s release and I wonder in my article and I wonder now...in view of the fact that their hero DuMond went on to viciously murder two women, are any of these alleged Freepers (I don’t know any of them but I believe you) who championed DuMond’s release at all sorry?
Further, DuMond’s criminal history was anything but pristine prior to his rape, a fact Huckabee was often prone to quote. DuMond was involved in the murder of a man in 1972. He turned state’s witness but he did testify to hitting the man with a claw hammer. He also confessed to another rape then later recanted when the woman wouldn’t testify out of fear for DuMond.
There’s plenty more on DuMond pre the rape that got him thrown in jail. It only took a little investigation, folks. Huckabee went about repeating the mantra. Couldn’t he have had somebody on his staff check it out?
then you know what he did? He told everybody that there was NO DNA evidence linking DuMond to the rape of Ashley. Well no...there was NO DNA evidence because for whatever reason...NONE WAS TAKEN. Or else DNA evidence was taken and later it was lost or destroyed. This rape took place in 1985, way before sophisticated DNA tests were available. Thus before the very fine hero of yours DuMond was released, there was NO DNA evidence available to re-test. It’s not quite the same thing as there being NO DNA evidence, a phrase that causes the average human to think this means that the DNA did NOT match DuMond. There was none, period. They call that phraseology obsfucation.
DuMond married a so-called church lady after his release. I wonder if some Arkansas Blogger shouldn’t find this lady who so loved her jailhouse hero and ask her how she feels about the two women her husband killed within six months of her marriage. I wonder how Carol Shields’ six children feel with yet another Christmas coming up without their mother.
DuMond was a case of group hysteria as you might argue but don’t go calling ME a hypocrite. I’d think people who championed a man’s release from jail who went on to kill two more innocent women who should be alive and buying their Christmas gifts even as I type would be hypocrites.
How about DuMond’s lovely wife....where is she?
Finally...how does one explain the following stats:
Here are the figures for neighboring states since 1996, when Huckabee took office (and keep in mind the population of these states is nearly 20 times ours):
___ >> Louisiana – 213.
___ >> Mississippi – 24.
___ >> Missouri – 79.
___ >> Oklahoma – 178.
___ >> Tennessee – 32.
___ >> Texas – 98 (in-cludes 36 inmates released because they were convicted on drug charges with planted evidence).
___ Total: 624 vs. Huckabee’s 703?
Please....vote for Huckabee if you want. But if you or I did such a terrible job for sure we’d not be running for president.
