I wish he were my rep.

Better if he were your President next year! ;*)

[purpleraine]

It’s refreshing to hear a politician come out so specific and clearly on an issue, while others hem and haw.

[Just A Nobody]

It is truly astonishing that the Democrats and their allies...

Like McCain and Huckabee. Did anyone count how many time the bimbo said McCain's name?

[lone star annie]

He has my vote. He won the TEXAS straw poll and I think he can win the state. If he does, he has a real shot. Seen any pols from TEXAS? Nope because I am sure he is making a strong showing..don’t want to give the rest of the country any ideas.

2 Timothy 4 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

No doubt!!! It's amazing what fables people will believe about politicians. Or anything else these days. Hunter is working out of a hole in a time when the real thing is ignored or even reviled. There is a growing distrust of authenticity IMO.

[Blind Eye Jones]

Dem: Charlie doesn’t surf. Only we Americans have waterboards.

Hunter: You’re crazy.

[red irish]

I watched it of course the dem woman said she is so against waterboboarding but if her kids were in danger anything goes. But of course the President must watch out for the entire country while the whole world is watching,she said. They really don’t get it,they don’t feel scared.Something awful must happen and many people will die to make them understand the threat of Islam.

[Brandie]

Thank you so much. God bless Duncan Hunter!

Hunter mentioned it that it was part of some of our military folk’s training.

[pissant]

She was a blonde too.

[pissant]

ANd the dirty little secret is they don’t even oppose it. They just are trying to make political hay.

[pissant]

Amen to that.

[paul51]

Hunter is the man. The only one of the candidates I agree with on all the issues important to me.

In September 2002 a bipartisan group of four members of Congress met with CIA officials for a virtual tour of the CIA’s overseas detention sites. During that meeting, which included Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, information was given detailing how information was extracted from detainees in these centers. One such technique was Waterboarding. At least two lawmakers present in the room commented that the technique did not seem tough enough and suggested that the CIA “push harder.” Nancy Pelosi never raised a finger about the technique until it was discovered that it could be used a a tactic to spook the American people against the Republican Party.

I ask those reading this to ask, was the Geneva Accords that forbids waterboarding ever ratified by both houses of Congress? Geneva Convention III addressed treatment of POW’s in traditional wars. Both Iraq and the USA ratified Geneva Convention III. Then in 1977, Jimmy Carter, Yasser Arafat, and the Red Cross tried to push through ratification of Protocols I and II which would extend POW status to un-uniformed combatants,etc. Protocol I was bad because it benifited the Soviets and their army of spies around the world. It was fortunate that Ronald Reagan became president before Jimmy Carter could get the Senate to ratify Protocol I. Ronald Reagan deep stopped Protocol I and most of Protocol II. Bottom line: the USA was one of 2 nations I know of that did not ratify Protocols I and II.

Since Protocol I and II have not been ratified, why are we bound to these conventions?

[upsdriver]

“If Hunter’s not on the 2008 ballot, I’ll write him in.”

Me too! I will not waste my vote on a lesser candidate.

[rawcatslyentist]

>"I’m one of those real politic types who has given up on Hunter for POTUS"

You ready to quit and play pin the bow on the RINO? It aint even Iowa, ahnd she aint no wheres tired noways!

[Lexinom]

"Kiki, you made the point that if your child was in danger you'd use everything. The facts are we have 160,000 young men and women who are the children of somebody, and we have about 22,000 in Afghanistan... We have a duty to all of those people and to the American Citizens and I'll say this: I have a son who served three tours: two tours in Iraq and one tour in Afghanistan as a U.S. Marine. If you have someone who has info that could result in [their] deaths, we as politicians back here who say we want to take the 'Noble road' do a real disservice to Americans wearing the uniform... by not extracting information where we should."

[Mojohemi]

Duncan Hunter is close to being a perfect Ronald Reagan.

Duncan is the only republican I would leave my home to go and vote for.

[ovrtaxt]

Cool clip. But I just can’t stomach O Reilly.

[buckeye49]

You just watch, some of the other candidates are going to parrot Hunter from tonight, just like it had been their position all along. Probably not McCain, but I’ll bet on Romney for sure.
