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.
Agreed. We’ll see what happens.
Love them empowerment zones. /s
Exactly. I know a legal citizen who was arrested for probation violation that he did almost 12 years ago. Why does an illegal get off scot free for a much more heinous crime, sucking up countless resources that should be going to citizens of this country?!
These Hispanderers make me sick!
Panetta has spent $30,000 of tax payer money EACH WEEK to fly home to California for the weekends, lol.
I had not heard.
Cain did well tonight and sounded in control answering the questions as a CEO. The others sounded like professional politicians although Michelle seemed to find her voice.
Big losers were Mitt who talked in circles and Newt who was in his environment of academics.
Though Cain is well liked he just continues to show he’s confused about foreign governments and what’s happening overseas. Just too much for him to learn and his answers reveal that information gets muddled as he attempts to remember what he’s learned.
So the question becomes: Do you actually reduce carbon output by using alligators with your mote? :-)
Well, true. But also add it to a long list of things the feral government can’t do.
Not true. Alabama’s immigration law has already resulted in a large number of illegals leaving the state. It is already lowering the unemployment rate:
Princess Gloria the Borgia is a true believer in “conflict for bucks” style of broadcasting.
Whoever she supports I am against.
Princess Gloria the Borgia is truly a repulsive woman.
I guess Rush was right - Wolf and gang were studying ahead to trap and out maneuver Newt - guess they couldn't figure out how to outsmart him, so he ignored him...
and the 'trap' which is what the lap dogs already off and running with slamming Newt by using on HALF of his immigration plan. He wants to send people who HAVEN't been here for decades, home - make sure employers follow the law - but for people that have been here for decades, supported themselves and their families, church going,not laying around on the system =
All the people with the 'talking points' of sending 11-12 million people home all at once...but no one says HOW that could be accomplished. Popular to say, but dishonest without specifying HOW you deport 11-12 million at one time.
Wolf was also very careful to not let Newt weigh in issues where he is head and shoulders above others. So I guess we see the strategy Wolf and gang settled on. Huntsman and Paul got more time. clever strategy. Slimy, but clever.
Wrong? That I don't recall...?
LOL!
I'm glad he agrees with me! ;)
This Freeper is not a liar...just heard Newt say after the debate he would not deport those here... his answer was roundabout but basically agreeing with the Perry “heartless” comment IMHO. By the way, you really need a better debate strategy than calling names.
David Gurggle weighs in on the patriot act....
He Loves Ron Paul!
It was Bamster who made the "alligators in the mote" statement. Confuse much?
Many conservatives are for closing the border and sending illegals back to Mexico. A few conservatives hate Mexicans whatever the reason.
The 2nd group gives the first group a bad reputation.
A 3rd group thinks there is middle ground between amnesty and deportation. (No...it's not amputation.)
The middle ground is a legitimate worker program that is truly a legitimate worker program and not a secret code word for amnesty.
You’re right. Europe has already imposed the sanctons- and from NYT here is US position, in significant part—
*****
“With the sweeping sanctions it has imposed on Syrias energy sector, the Obama administration has stepped up its efforts to isolate Bashar al-Assads regime, which earns as much as one-third of its income from oil exports.
The measures certainly look punitive Washington has prohibited any Syrian petrol products from being imported into the US, and has forbidden any US citizens and companies from involvement in Syrias oil sector or exporting any products to Syria.
It also blacklisted five Syrian government energy companies and froze all Syrian government assets in the US.”

Too many on the Board mirror the MSM— and seem to want to make Mr. Cain look inept. Invariably, he gives the right bulleted answers- albeit in abbreviated fashion.
In all these debates, I’ve never hear any of the other candidates contest his views. If some don’t wish to support him, that’s fine.. But, one shouldn’t manufacture critism that has no basis in fact.
Cain’s the one who made Cain’s statement calling for amnesty for millions of illegals, not me.
That’s from Herman Cain, not TitansAFC.
If the Cain folks want to pretend Newt is dead because of having the same idea on legal status for some illegals as Cain, then they’d better start putting away their Cain-for-President signs and find someone else.
