Don’t worry... he’ll be full moonbat any minute now.

Yep... there he went with “no profiling” because they might look like McVeigh.

So Paul’s answer to terrorism is to get attacked in the name of liberty.

SUPER!

There are two Newts. Concise Newt. And Professor Newt.

I like Concise Newt. I can tolerate Professor Newt.

Cain can also be concise (due to his business background).

Politicians don’t know how to be concise, so “we the people” who are used to listening to a politician drone on and on with answers (a la Romney), may subtract points from Cain when he is “too concise.”

Santorum wants to profile Muslims. “Find the bomber, not just the bomb.”

Wonderful idea!

Paul says there has not been a vote on a war—terrorism is a tactic, not a people.

Cain asked if he agrees with Santorum.

Cain says use “target and investigation”. Says terrorists want kill us first, we need to kill them first.

Paul is crazy.

Santorum stumbles over some great points.

Cain is using common sense. Blitzer trying to trap Herman.

Santorum says we should privatize TSA too.

Santorum acknowledges Lincoln’s suspension of rights during war on the homeland. Santorum says profiling is okay. Even Muslims.

Santorum is damn right, and will have hell to pay.

Ron Paul says this is digging a hole....brings up Timothy McVeigh.

Ron Paul says the use of words is important...wants us to be very cautious.

Herman Cain asked if religious profiling should be done. Cain says TSA should use “targeted identification”. Sounds like more focused profiling. Regarding the Patriot Act, he will tinker with it, but thinks it is overall a good law.

Cain says “enhanced patdowns” for Muslims is too simplistic. Good answer, imo.

I concur, but the Patriot Act does not infringe on our freedom or liberty. TSA does.

If you don't think that the PATRIOT Act doesn't lay the groundwork for evil things, you're probably smoking something illegal. There was a reason why it took 9/11 to get it passed, and there was a reason why it was rushed through Congress. If it was such a great idea, it would have been passed years before.

And Newt’s response to suspend in advance the rights of folks like McVeigh who might blow up buildings? If so, we’ll just have to disagree.

Wow.... Did BLITZER just bring Muslims into the conversation, when Cain hadn’t specifically said Muslims?

(That Blitz / Cain banter was indeed funny.)

Paul....What if they look like Tim McVey....

MoRon Paul denies that Islam is at war with us. Idiot. Blitzed baiting Cain on profiling. Cain calls him Blitz, Blitz calls him Cain back.

Perry is constrained by the anti-semites at CNN from saying ‘Use Israeli Security Measures for Aviation’.

Or, maybe he just forgot :)
