[Arrowhead1952]

You nailed it. Her handlers will make sure Hillary has no contact with any "opposition" voices.

[rodguy911]

Hardly,just check out about a zillion threads here on FR about what a demon hillary and her entire mob are and you will find plenty of ammunition why we don't ever want her or her mob anywhere near the White House again.

[mathluv]

I don't want to have to vote for Rudy or mcpain, but I would to vote against hellary (or any dim). Rudy would be my preference, but only if I had no other choice. Huck is from Ark - so I hesitate to support him. Brownback is out - he is for cut and run. I am not sure about Hunter - don't know enough.

[edpc]

Senator Vitter may do well to remember less is more the the gestures.

It's tough to enjoy breakfast with the sniveling Schumer on screen. He's almost as insufferable as Daschle was. The biggest problem with the Dems, whether it's Iraq or anywhere else, is they believe we send troops somewhere to die. In fact, we send them to kill and destroy the enemy. The (D) behind their names always stands for "defeat" first and foremost.

[Arrowhead1952]

Morning snugs. I'll be logging off in a few. I have to get to Church by 930, so I will only see the first few minutes of FNS.

[Carolinamom]

Support the candidate who is passionate about defending this nation and its people , and we will have the kind of President we need.

[snugs]

Well that should cause fur to fly but why is the question relavant is Brownback a Mormon?

[maica]

Timmy: will congress cut off funding for the war.

((((((

The only question that I want to hear any host ask any guest is
"Do you want America to win in Iraq?"

[not even do you want 'us' to win, because lefties do not associate themselves with flag-carrying Americans, especially GWB and the current Administration.]

[maica]

I have read that Gerard Baker article, and hope that it reaches a wide readership in the UK and everywhere.

[rodguy911]

Jeb lost some of us on his take on Schiavo, many of us here in FLa. felt he could have done more and didn't. Also would be nice to hear exactly where he stands on securing the border.

[Chuck54]

I believe the Democrats and Tim's worst nightmare would be for the "surge" to work. Not a complete turnaround, but just a general improvement.

Nothing would pain the opposition more. Absolutely nothing. They are so afraid Patreus and the President may be right.

They are intent on losing to "get back" at GWB and the Republicans.

[TomGuy]

Then this may be nothing more than slick politics by Huckabee, but he is doing quite well at it.

Read some of the comments in any of the several Huckabee threads. He is not that stellar of a candidate. He more or less became governor by default -- by replacing the Dem who replaced Clinton. Jim Guy Tucker ended up in jail, so Huckabee won the governorship. Term limits prohibited Huckabee from running last year. Huckabee could not deliver the governorship to a successor Republican, nor did he leave any Republican in any elective high state office.

Huckabee has been a disaster on curbing the flood of illegals into the state, as well. In fact, he was highly critical of a FED raid on some processing plants early last year.

[Miss Marple]

No, Brownback is a Catholic and th e Roman Catholic Church, as I understand it, does not recognize baptisms from the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints.

How did Brownback answer? The question was obviously meant to divide the Republicans.

[snugs]

Bill will appoint female assistants to do this but oversee it but not to check the work is done but to check out the workers.

[edpc]

Pollack say Iraq has the potential to slide into all out civil war like the Balkans. Odd how we just had to do something about that conflict under Clinton; but we'd better turn tail in this instance.

[Bahbah]

I believe the Democrats and Tim's worst nightmare would be for the "surge" to work.

They are so completely invested in our failure now, they cannot allow America to suceed. Now just how dangerous is that!

[mystery-ak]

"They are intent on losing to "get back" at GWB and the Republicans."


I think they made that perfectly clear last week when they refused to stand for VICTORY during the STOU

[Bahbah]

Thanks for that information, TomGuy. As I said, I don't know much about him.

[edpc]

They are so completely invested in our failure now, they cannot allow America to suceed.

Unbelievable. Schumer just knows nothing will be different in six months. Someone who has never been right about anything in his political life.....and now we have to bow before his acumen. Please.....
