“There is something about Huntsman that I don’t like.”

Looks like he would be more comfortable in a rain coat.

Question to Romney: Are you a member of the Tea Party?

Hey Williams, are you serious?

Dr. Paul, taking a ride on the crazy train, a fence would keep Americans in.

LOL, like we’re desperate to go to Mexico!

We might be, after four more years of Obama.

Token Mexican liberal with loaded questions. You’re right, why can’t Rush, Jim Robinson, FReepers and Mark Levin be the moderators for a Democratic debate and ask loaded tough questions like...

“Socialism has failed everywhere it has ever been tried. Why is that? Karl Marx didn’t go to Harvard is not a good answer.”

The answer to the immigration question is simple. You can’t have BOTH open borders and free healthcare and education welfare entitlement society.

Pick one.

So elect any of the globalist agenda following candidates, and we can continue waging war all over the planet. So are we fighting al queada or are we fighting with them? Libya shows us we are arming and supporting al queada. Which was created by Brezenski (Carter era), and is now the boogie man the globalist roll out to instill fear in America. And, you and most of the other posters here are proof that it is working. WAKE UP!

Fences that can keep people out can also keep people in. It worked well in East Germany.

Oh yeah, nothing like that could ever happen here, could it?

I am waiting for *Huntsman* to say! You’re travelling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind; a journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That’s the signpost up ahead - your next stop, the Twilight Zone!”

LOL!

Thought it was just me,but there is something creepy about him.

Okay, I retract my statement. Cain may be the only one who doesn’t favor amnesty based on his response tonight. The rest do. Some are playing word games but I’ve followed this issue too long not to hear the code words.
