And an IQ to match.
McCAIN IS QUOTING RUSH!!!!!!
on people want or not want drilling off their shores.
.. ... ..
McCain is admiting to being a enirokoolaid drinker.?!
McCains mojo is mogone.
....and MORE ;-)
;-)
thanks....but yes— you are right...what he says is the worst....but thankfully he has no chance of winning the nomination.....hence I am able to look at him as comic relief......
Yeah... I’m watching this on MSNBC now. As much as I hate to say this... Rudy is head and sholders above the others.
Hunter was the first one to say that Iran will never acquire nuclear weapons if he is president. All the others started singing the same song. This was 4 debates ago.
When asked if he would potentially use nuclear weapons to remove Iran’s nuclear threat he said “yes”.
If you are trying to paint Hunter as weak on Iran, you are barking up the wrong tree.
LOL!!
I agree -- that was a great comment from Hunter. Remember at the beginning of the war in Afghanistan, when some unnamed commander had Mullah Omar in his sights, but consulted the lawyers first? Mullah Omar escaped as a result -- and I remember the reports said that Rummy was literally kicking trashcans around his office, he was so angry.
I was watching a interview with Jenna Jameson (porn performer) and she stated that after her interview with OReily and the camaras went off he told her he had never seen her porn movies as he doesn’t do that but if she could please drop a few of her movies in the mail to him so he could judge her talent as a journlist of course.
Why is Fred tap dancing on this question???
Didn’t matter, it was his Dukakis tank moment. Spin, everything is spin. And we have become so ADD as a country that we can’t listen beyond 10 seconds or watch beyond 22.
Wipe your TV screens.....spittin’ Chrissy is up again.
“Willing to give up liberty for security huh”?
Hardly, Dr. Paul doesn’t seem to think that the Commander in Chief had any retaliatory capability found in the Constitution, and I disagree with that notion.
LOL!!!
well— I agree they are the worst thing that could happen in this election.....other than maybe Ron Paul- thank God he is not able to win...
but I also think we need to stop selling the Republican Party short...
we sat here furios day after day- furious that the Republicans would not stand up to the Dems...and kept reaching across the aisle... compromising...etc...
but then we all seem to get weak kneed and say things like “Hunter is the most conservative, BUT.......”
The time to demand conservatism is in the primaries.....
NOW, RP IS SAYING WE HAVE A HORRIBLE ECONOMY! WHAT A DITZ.
Huckabee’s red bamboo print tie does not go with his stripe shirt.
.. .. .. ...
Thompson was gracious in agreeing with the opponents.
I think he understands the delivery of the message counts.
seeing this a second time I would say the MSM was intentionally off the mark on their post debate reviews.
I think it is now officially a three way race.
.. .. .. ..
I keep expecting ronpaul to start whispering “preeeeecious, where is my preeeecious....”
This is my first time seeing all the candidates and this thing should be down to Fred, Rudy, Mitt and maybe Duncan Hunter. Ron Paul reminds me of a disgruntled christmas elf.
Yeah RP is clueless.
Good grief.......don’t send that elf near the kids!
