Oh good grief. What would he do? Bring them to church and offer them cookies? How any logical, intelligent, thinking conservative could vote for this fraud is beyond me.

"I’ve never witnessed bigger a flip flopper than Romney.

In full Mitt defense mode today, I make an important distinction. Moving from pro choice to pro-life is a flip. Not a flip-flop. It is a move to the correct position, as late as it may be.

You suggest Mitt should still be pro-life ! He explained today that he vowed not to remove Mass's expressed choice for pro-choice policies, but he voted time and again against expanding it further. Hey, it's tough governing a bunch of wacko libs.

[TheLawyerFormerlyKnownAsAl]

Mitt's doing well. More real and natural than we usually see. He's reframing most of Tim's questions, and Tim did not attempt to stifle as much as he usually does. Mitt was able to explain the why's and wherefores of some earlier votes and positions. He accomplished it to my satisfaction.

I agree based on what I saw which was about the first half hour.

“Actually I doubt BJ craved it....(the presidency)”

Among your many loony statements, this has got to be a Top Fiver!

[kabar]

I trust you. It is the way to diminish the Thompson candidacy and influence perceptions. They destroyed Dean [along with himself] with his “I Have a Scream” speech.

[snugs]

I probably would light a fire at 55 if I had one certainly the electric fire comes on at that temperature especially for dad

[chiller]

Further, Ronald Magnus Reagan made the same “flip-flop”!

[anita]

Yeah. His comments on the debate was silly. If the arguments of the alarmists were false, no damage done & climate will be blooming. Forget about the damage it does to the economy & the business relying on silly conclusions.

Sounds like if someone come to McCain & say don't get up from your bed & go out so that you avoid the risk of some car hitting you & getting killed - why not obey that silliness?

[bray]

Your personal attacks have gotten pretty lame, don’t you think??

Pray for W and Our Troops

[Laverne]

Huck said he didn’t call Bush arrogant, but his policy is arrogant...especially when he said you are with us or you are against us. He then runs lists a bunch of items for which he is in agreement with Bush, where Romney has not been (abortion, life, yada yada yada).

Huck is spinning like a top, and Woffie is letting him spin away. Huck said people should read what he said, not what other people said he said.

I have no affinity towards Huck; he does not impress me one iota.

287G(a law that allows locals the deal with illegals after taking certain courses) is the only answer,it’s the locals that really come in contact with the illegals much so more than the Feds, they need the ability to deal with them on the scene and not be hand tied by unnecessary bureaucracy.

[Cedric]

Defend your inane claim, please.

[rodguy911]

I really don’t think you will have to. My guess is that if he is still high up in the polling for much longer he will be outed like no one ever has been before.

[kabar]

Thompson answer was just close the boarders, use new technology to find out if people are illegals so they don’t get jobs. He said we shouldn’t round up illegals, or fill our jails with illegals. He basically didn’t have a real definite answer on what to do with the illegals that are here now. He said Americans are more worried about the millions of more illegals that will come.

I have no problem with that. It is part of Fred's comprehensive plan. It is called "attrition thru enforcment."

No politician is going to advocate rounding up 12 million or more people and throwing them in jail. In point of fact, there is no great urgency to do that as long as we cut off the supply first. If we have tough penalties on employers and actually enforce them, many will go home. Others can be sent home as they come to the attention of state and local law enforcement thru widespread use of 287 [g] authority. The 12 to 20 million illegals didn't get here overnight and they won't leave overnight.

[snugs]

No problems as far as I am concerned real life does intrude sometimes.

I will look out for them tomorrow and do them at the same time I am preparing the dose.

[kabar]

Agreed. It also has a force multiplier effect allowing hundreds of thousands of law enforcement officials to be part of the effort.

[Jeff Chandler]

BJ’s campaigning for the easy sex.

And I'm guessing you don't mean with his wife.

[W-Girl]

Am I thrilled with Romney ...NO !!

He is surely another moderate ...just like his father !!

But remember Reagan was once a DEMOCRAT !!

My true picks ....don’t seem be going anywhere ...that includes Hunter and Thompson !!

I am afraid of what is in Rudy’s closet and Huckabee is nothing but a Media darling .....so after seeing Romney do a nice job with Russert...I think, he is my man !! I will not waste my vote in the primary !!

I want someone that will WIN....Romney is electable and probably will be very attractive in a general election !!

Romney has evolved his positions but he is saying it right now !! And I have evolved in my opinion of him ...after careful consideration of all the rest !!

Yes, HE LOOKS GOOD, has 1 wife who also looks good, has been in business and has governed a state (even if it was MA) !!

You asked ...you got !!

[surrey]

My husband and I met them in St. Thomas while on vacation. She is a looker and as nice as can be. He’s totally down to earth. Doesn’t have that “do you know who I am? “ attitude.

[Cedric]

No, that’s a job he pawned off on Web Hubble {theoretically and hopefully (for Web’s sake) only once; hence Chelsea}!
