MSNBC | 24 JANUARY 2008 | EEE SUBSTITUTING FOR COUNTERCOUNTERCULTRE

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Debate among the GOP presidential contenders. Live at 9:00pm EST/8:00 CST

[nckerr]

Romney’s answer on the 2nd Amendment was his weakest so far.

I agree whole heartedly. We need a true gun toter!

[RoseofTexas]

I don’t know how to do all that..sigh! But I know I’m not the only one who must have recorded that sound bite. I swear I’m not lying. I heard what I heard and they said those precise words. I wrote them down just to make sure I heard it right!

[Pravious]

The more they attack Mitt, the more airtime he gets to slam it back in their faces, and the better he looks.

[rintense]

He said he couldn’t imagine Bill Clinton running around the White House with nothing to do.

[AzSteven]

Why do American citizens need assault weapons?

Why do you need internet access? Why are presses allowed to be sold unlicensed? Why are churches not forced to adhere to federal standards of religious conduct?

We have certain unalienable rights that are recognized and guaranteed in the Bill of Rights. The Right to Keep and Bear Arms is one of those rights. That right does not say 'only flintlocks', or 'only things that don't look scary'. Assault Weapons, or really the semi-automatic firearms you and the media mistakenly call Assault Weapons, are arms.

[McGruff]

Romney said he would report what he has spent when he had to and not a minute earlier. He also said he’s spending his own money. Not money from special interest groups.

[dforest]

Now they are pounding Mitt on his religion. They never ask Dems that question.

[advance_copy]

Now bringing up the Morman thing again.

It's the last dirty trick the liberal press has left. And Romney handles it with ease!

[AmericanMade1776]

Hillary has five times as much money in her campaing war chest as Romney and even Obama has Romney beat...but they don’t get drilled on it.

[MattinNJ]

Mitt kicked Russerts fat ass-nice shot with the Corzine come back. He’s growing on me. I also think he’s squeaky clean. I doubt there is anything in the FBI files on him.

[Terrence DoGood]

I think Mr. Potatohead is actually doing Mitt a favor tonight because he’s hitting homeruns

[NordP]

Hi my FRiend! You’re right again!

[CharlesWayneCT]

I’m not watching the debate. But I flipped over for a second, and heard Mitt explain why he’s using his own money.

My daughter was listening (she was a FredHead). She looks at me, and says “They are complaining because he spent his own money? That’s retarded”.

[Scarchin]

My guess - the “incredible” remark was an inside report on how much Mitt has spent in FLA.

Russert’s a class warfare douchebag.

[Fudd Fan]

Mitt is impressing me tonight. I might change my tagline to “sMITTen.”

[Brimack34]

Romney did a heck of a job. Russert sucks.

[devolve]

.

I’m using an RCA circa 2000 WebTV-Plus receiver

Only one vidcap per email

But a WebTV developed website has a 4 vidcap per upload feature

I can roll the TV pic up digitally a tad with my WebTV setup in a few seconds

I tossed in Ron Paul for those FReepers who expect him to get the nomination and win the election

[La Enchiladita]

” A religious litmus test is an un-American as anything you can think of...”

[libbylu]

you shouldn’t say that crap that is not true, someone will believe you.

[rintense]

Uh, I wouldn’t go that far.
