LOL. Sorry.

Thank you for the great article. Duncan Hunter is the best candidate on protecting American sovereignty and is the only candidate who has pledged to make sure that the judicial appointments he would make as President are pro-life as well strict constructionists.

I listened to Duncan’s interview on WPTF out of Raleigh on my ride home yesterday. Not a word about Fiscal Accountability, the cornerstone of Regan’s campaign. The War on Terror and Illegal Aliens are not unique to just Duncan’s campaign. If he wants to stand out from the others, he is going to have to make war on the Terrorists of Capital Hill that are stealing us blind everyday. To put it in a nutshell, I was very unimpressed with his interview yesterday.

"He also favors legislation from House colleague and presidential candidate Tom Tancredo requiring the federal government to withhold funds from “sanctuary” cities — towns that refuse to turn over criminal illegal aliens to the U.S. Bureau of Immigrations and Customs Enforcement"

That bill raised my opinion of Tencredo by about three stairs. Shame his supportes don't talk like him

Hunter I have always liked, just like a lot of people. It's the name recognition problem that worries me because he's not from the "cool" House, the Other House (Sometimes referred to accurately as Animal House). He barely gets a chance to talk in the pre-debate debates!

Well, he is only asked certain questions in limited time. A liitle more digging and you'll find he plans to have a balanced budget, he wants only free market principles for addressing health care, he is a cosponsor of the Fair Tax bill, he believes we can save huge $$ on spending by reducing the number of federal programs, he wants to eliminate taxes on manufacturers, he supports limiting growth in all areas other than defense.

To quote Hunter:

According to Office of Management and Budget, 28% of federal programs are either ineffective or have results that are not demonstrated. Reforming, combining or eliminating those programs remains among my highest legislative priorities.

The more I hear the more i like......
Hunter seems to get it.... Now if he can overcome the juggernaut of RudyMcRommney.

“As president of the United States I will never apologize for the United States of America. Our country is a great country.”

And that is indeed how our president should regard our country, and not engage in endless Carter-esque apologies.

"...he wants to eliminate taxes on manufacturers..."

Ulp! Oh, NO! He's TOAST! UNLESS the Democrats have so overused the Bush/Cheny/Halliburton/TAX CUTS TO THE RICH mantras that voters stop paying attention...not likely because they're learing Marxist principles in grade school now.

[pissant]

Hard row to hoe, but it can be done.

[pissant]

He is slowly getting more exposure. Considering his competeition, he will get stronger as the weeks go by.

[pissant]

On top of it, none of this State Dept nuanced foreign policy. Shoot straight - always.

[pissant]

By the way, there is a HUGE chasm between Duncan Hunter’s history and policies on National Security and Illegal Aliens and the phonies who just discovered these issues when they decided to run for president. It’s ALL about credibility. Only Hunter has it.

Peace Through Strength was Reagan’s slogan, and it is also Hunter’s.

[cake_crumb]

Hopefully.

Keep ‘em coming, guys. I know you two are huge on Hunter and actively look for articles online.

He can only get more exposure.

... just putting my tagline on this thread... please continue your discussion...

Just sent my first donation to any candidate this election. It went to Hunter.

A strong military, cracking down on illegal immigration, fairer trade and conservative family values are his priorities, Republican presidential candidate Duncan Hunter told local Republicans during a visit to Burlington on Monday.
***My priorities as well. Thanks for posting the article.
