WOO-HOO for Newt for backing up Cain!
Whack on you Romney!
Now THAT’s the way a REAL candidate reacts to rudeness! Go Cain!
Sorry, must have missed my initial post in which I opined that none of these losers will be the next POTUS.
Have a great day!
Bachmann - marriage = man and woman
same sex marriage
ASK ROMNEY !!!!!!
EXACTLY
I AM SICK TO DEATH OF TRYING TO TELL THESE IDIOTS THAT THERE IS NO THING CALLED THAT IN OUR CONSTITUTION.
That phrase goes back to the commie manifesto of 1963.
The left have hammered that phrase so much that people just say it but every time I ask them where does it state that they have a blank stare
I don’t see her meeting and greeting. You can’t win the lottery unless you participate.
Nobody is that special. I don’t care who you are.
You are a dud. She runs for office every two years! duhhhh....
“Let the Show Begin” - but the ‘Star of the Show’ is not on stage. Once Sarah declares to run (she doesn’t owe anyone any timeline), she is going to suck the air out of the entire forum.
If Romney is “Spicey” It can only mean hs must have some Weiner pictures somewhere! GEEZUZ.......
No offense to anyone, but these stupid arse queries in a debate where our nation is at stake, make me )as Retrokitten would say) “VERY STABBY!!!!!
I thought it was only mentioned in a letter by
Jefferson.
Mitt didn’t only blow it on Sharia, but he dissed the other candidate, for the effect of his “never happen here” remark was to negate and truth of a series of facts that Mr. Cain had just correctly asserted. What could it be but to show the contempt that Mr. Romney has for those he views as his lessers?
Bachmann was very good on homosexual marriage. King went into damage control immediately.
Bravo!
Mitt is in a bad position being Mormon. His answers cannot oppose any faith..including Islam. Otherwise he’s faced with defending his own religion of Mormonism...which is not Christian..so he’ll be playing the all inclusive faiths as welcomed in the US.
Bachmann got good response from indies on her marriage answer.
How do you kbnow I am a dud. Because I like people who actually participate rather than act like it is the Prom Queen contest?
Laz
LOL of course, Palin’s not here, that means the debates are a waste of time. Now I know why she doesn’t show up. Any question asked of her is a ‘gotcha’ question.
Editorial comment THE MILITARY IS FOR FIGHTING WAR< NOT A FREAKIN SOCIAL EXPERIMENT!
I now return you to your normal programming, with the idiot John King blabbering........
