Yes, yes, Tancredo is being pragmatic. Like any good thing it can be carried too far. The past few election cycles are witness to that. Our road to hell is paved with ‘pragmatism’.

I’ll be sending Tanc a box of lettuce heads.

Did you sent Hunter that same present when he endorsed the pro-illegals Huckster?

Yeah, didn't think so.

Don't be too surprised to see Hunter support McCain next, so save a least one more box of lettuce heads.

“I hope all conservatives who rightfully despise McCain will follow him and support McCain,”

I hope there will never come a day when someone tells us....

“I hope all conservatives who rightfully despise Mohammed will follow him and support Islam”.

At what point do we stop selling out? Really, where do you draw the line?

Today Tancredo, November 5th, every Conservative that thinks (R) trumps everything. Then what?

Tancredo made no mention of the letter "R". Tancredo did make mention of the WOT.

"No less incredible than Pat Robertson endorsing Rudy or Duncan Hunter endorsing Huckabee."

Same level of incredulity, I would agree, on Robertson. Much less so on Hunter.

I haven't yet quite reached your depth of cynicism; some things do still surprise me. Tancredo definitely did.

That wasn't my question,man. I understand you don't like Republicans,that's fine with me.

My question was and remains:

Do you think things have been better since democrats took control in 2006?

If you don't want to answer that simple question I understand that,too.

No, I know you don't want to believe you're my Edith, but you've got to stop supporting these politickle hermaphrodites like McCain and Schwartzenegger while quaintly trying to convince committed conservative Americans on FR that you are one too!!!

I'm still waiting for that beer!!! (and you din't stifle)

I did answer your question but your either refuse to admit the cause of the problem or have the same blind spot many in the GOP also suffer. Republican or Democrat is irrelevant because both are run by socialists. The relevant issue is conservative vs socialist. Both parties have made matters worse in the country because due to their intent to advance socialism.

If McCain is elected, it won’t be long till he finds a way to stab Tancredo in the back to thank him for the support.

I don't know the answer to that question, but McCain has moved the line further left than it's ever been before.

Why? Huckabee is as much a friend to illegal aliens as McCain, so there's little difference between Hunter supporting Huck and Tanc supporting McCain. As I mentioned above, don't bee too surprised to see Hunter endorse McCain in the near future.

You won't be disapppointing me in the least.

But my main point was that Hunter has already endorsed a pro-illegals candidate (Huckabee). Even I was surprised at that one.

He won't.

He just won't.

Surely he won't.

Wait just a minute...

Hunter endorsed him because Huckabee signed off on the NumbersUSA & Jeff Session pledge against illegals.

No Sir,you did not answer the question.

If you can't admit that Pelosi,Reid and all of the now majority is worse for our country than when Republicans had a slight majority I have nothing else to say to you.

Thanks
