Johnson should be Huntsman. I mixed his name up with someone else.
Only thing Santorum has that no one mentions is the state of PA.I wish West were debating tonight and running. He would out debate them all.
Excellent! TYVM. Spares me from kitchen runs while he watches his football!
Well Perry is announcing Sat, what do you want them to do, ignore him?
If you don’t want to show up for practice/debates then don’t expect to play in the game/win an election. jmo
Hi Mags! :)
HIya Net! Long time no Snark! ;-)
Always a pleasure to see you!
Want me to switch from the bird with the french fry to this one?
Yep. :)
Your graphics are wonderful, just like your judgment! I need to go eat something. You please decide. I’ll be as happy as a bird with a French fry no matter your decision!
I was just letting you all know I made my first SPPAM on the LIVE thread....LOL.
See? I need to eat? I mispelled SPAM. This thread will get going once the debate starts.

4 questions I’d love to ask:
Regardless of current law and court opinions, in your personal opinion- do pregnant women have the right to kill their unborn child at any time and for any reason?
Will you allow open homosexuality in the military?
Name 500 billion in actual cuts, not decreases to planned increase/not saving thru innovations, not reducing interest payments by accounting methods...but ACTUAL CUTS you would make to the current budget.
Regardless of legality, do you personally feel placing a mosque in a building struck by a 9-11 aircraft is proper?
The PA pubbie party threw Santorum overboard. The chairman of the party here is a freaking idiot and will go to the highest bidder, which in one case was murtha, one case rendell, and the other was casey. I don’t know why he is here.
“I don’t know why he is here.”
In a word? Im gonna say BRIBES!
I care about one thing. Will they repeal Obamacare? The answer is “YES” or they will not get my vote.
They may not get my vote for other reasons but that issue is a complete non-starter. Obamacare HAS to go.
You betcha! And I need to reload my fuzzy slipper box because oreally just took my last one right in the head!!!
The guy on the end was telling the truth... it pissed the others off. I saw it too.
