Perry doesnt get to respond on the gaurdasil issue?

He had a chance, but he chose to go after Romneycare, which is probably a smart move. Get the focus on Romney.

They are using Bachmann to attack the frontrunners but their problem is she attacks Romney as well as Newt so that doesn’t help them.

Perry was for the individual mandate for teenage girls. It’s so hypocritical for him to be attacking Newt and Mitt.

I suspect BCrago66 doesn’t know the definition of ad hominen.

That was so childish.

Mitt looked like a total dink there.

“Glad to hear I’m not the only one who thinks Fox has gone downhill.”

I believe the downhill slide started when the Fox problem in England began. Could there be some extortion afoot?

“The funny thing about Bachmann is that she’s 100% right, but she irritates me every time she opens her mouth.”

... Particularly tonight. Her “passionate” voice almost reminds me of that horrible shrill Hillary voice. Shudder.

... Oops. Break time. Why is Diane’s voice slurring? Does she always sound like that?

To: who knows what evil?
it is CLEARLY obvious that the communist moderators are there to bait the candidates into attacking each other, instead of Barack Hussein Obama

True. The one who usually brings it back to Hussein is Newt, but they're keeping him busy in the role of ping-pong ball.

Everybody to Newt’s left (his left) get off the stage.

Michele may be irritating to some.

However, she is telling it like it is.

You need 60 Senators to repeal Obamacare. Do you think Mitt
cares about that? Newt? No. They are going to cocktail parties
and fundraisers.

You can repeal most of it by reconciliation.

What does that mean, Fat Boy Newt? I’m a bit chubby but don’t know what in hell that remark means. Biased much?

That is the big problem with Santorum. You should be able to easily win your own state. Gore didn’t win his own state, look at what happened.

Somehow, I don’t feel shame. Simply saying someone is sickening is not intelligent; not an argument; it’s something we’d expect from Democratic Underground.

So let’s just say this particular conduct by BunnySlippers was sickening, and give her the presumption that she’s an otherwise excellent person.
