Do it the right way! Let the states enforce!
BTW, earlier this year Rollins said the same things about Bachmann as he did recently about Palin.

He is really, REALLY good! He would be so good for the country.
Although, as you can tell, I DO like Sarah a lot! :)
Well I say GOOD because the daiy barrage of “Will she or won’t she” threads on this forum has gotten really old.
Santorum’s been very good. Paul gets some good points in. Even Romney usually does very well.
“Newt belongs in Academia as a Political Science professor, NOT as President.”
Newt belongs sitting next to Pelosi in solidarity with global warming ... oh, wait a minute ...
King’s question is wrong about illegals.
Pawlenty is right — since the FED won’t the state have to.
For cryin’ out loud — how about some foreign policy questions! CNN is trying to pigeon-hole conservatives as focused on these wedge social issues.
Wow Palin supporters must be really afraid of Bachmann.
Very true, but with the media electing him and the teleprompter and a RINO as an opponent, he won the POTUS and probably will again.
Pawlenty: If feds won’t protect border, LET STATES DO IT!
You do realize that it Palin was to announce tomorrow,
this “debate” wouldn’t even linger in anyones memory
for ten seconds.
Gary Johnson too busy climbing a mountain?
If this is our field, I’m still in the Pawlenty/Cain corner.
Hey I always liked Michelle until she let Rollins do his thing on Sarah for several days after we were all over her. And, she didn’t bother to step in. That’s either a huge lack of judgement or lack of managerial experience. Either way bad news.
“gays in the military
Cain he wouldnt bother overturning
Paw How it effects the comanders
Paul behavior would count
Romney DADT should have been kept in place
Newt How it effects the safety of the soldiers
Bachman Keep DADT
Rick Punish bad behavior”
Thanx for the update!
King does 60% of the talking on this entire show.
Are we watching the same debate?????
Now I’m watching some DVRd UFC fights with family. Anything big happening?
