Hosted by the Heritage Foundation and the American Enterprise Institute, the theme of tonight's Republican presidential debate is foreign policy and national security.
The debate is being held at Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C.
CNN is carrying the debate live at 8 p.m. EST.
Participating candidates are: businessman Herman Cain, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, Texas Gov. Rick Perry, former Speaker Newt Gingrich, Reps. Ron Paul (TX) and Michele Bachmann (MN), former Gov. Jon Huntsman, and former Sen. Rick Santorum.
Herman Cain talking of Syrian oil.
Syria puts out squat for oil.
I hope so. I like Perry’s stands on most issues, especially state rights and 2nd amendment.
Worry about Newt with the individual mandate.
Cain’s answer on Syria. Generic and lame. All that was missing was “I’ll work with my advisors”...
No we don’t. I want Herman Cain to bone up on this stuff if he’s going to be in these debates.
We have to be serious about Syria, homie.
Let's put him there and see.
Agree. Newt thinks he can get the Hispanic vote. He is another McCain.
Is Wolf a Dem?
Newts mambling about amnesty is just another example of him trying to be smarter than everyone and all wonky and nuanced.
People are looking for simple answers. Secure the border. No amnesty. Those are simple ideas.
Maybe they all married their math teachers?
Syria imports oil. I produces less oil than any nation save Jordan. Ignorance being bliss, Mr. Cain must be the most blissful individual on the stage.
Perry wants a no fly zone over Syria? Is he knutz?
Why should our planes patrol that useless airspace and be target practice for some Muzzie trying to make his chops with a Stinger missile?
Wolf’s definitely a Dem. He’s trying hard to be obvious.
Before jumping on Cain for Syria oil comment:
Wiki:
Syria is the only significant crude oil producing country in the Eastern Mediterranean region, which includes Jordan, Lebanon, Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. According to the Oil and Gas Journal, Syria had 2,500,000,000 barrels (400,000,000 m3) of petroleum reserves as of January 1, 2010.[22] Syria’s known oil reserves are mainly in the eastern part of the country near its border with Iraq .In 2010, Syria produced around 385,000 barrels (61,200 m3) per day of crude oil.[20][21] Oil production has stabilized after falling for a number of years, and is poised to turn around as new fields come on line. Much of its oil is exported to Europe.
We graduate over 50,000 illegals from our public schools every year.
HOW DOES THAT EVEN HAPPEN? IT’S INSANE!
Once again, Perry is hog-tied from saying ‘let’s just do Sept 6 2007 all over again.’
Since Israel’s bombing of Syria’s nuke facility ‘never happened’.
I advise him to look up Syrias oil output
That number (12 million illegal immigrants) has been used for at LEAST ten years - and I have seen videos of literally thousands sneaking into this country every month!
Wolf’s definitely a Dem. He’s trying hard not to be obvious that he’s a Dem.
Yessir. And don't you dare talk about the ECONOMY, the number one issue on anyone's mind!
Let's talk about all the crap that you couldn't ream out of the shamestream media's cover of Zero with a FReekin Hilti ... the mind boggles.
