I’m not sure about that—the Daily Kooks, libs, etc. actually think RuPaul makes sense.

Have to give Wolfie credit. He is NOT interrupting the candidates each time their responses approaches areas he may not like.

The moderators at the last 2 debates were horrendous.

Why does Blitzer reread every question to Herman Cain like he’s trying to explain something to a retarded kid?

Holy crap. Wolf feeding Cain the question like a kindergarten teacher. Is it because he is so “very very black”?

As long as Ron Paul is on the stage, everybody from Cnn to Daily Kos, to David Letterman and the Daily Show can paint Repubs as crazy whacko nutjobs!

That's their point...make us look like idiots and ron Paul leads the charge in every respect! He's so embarrassing to this nation.

Some interesting stories of note lately with regards to Iran that I have seen.

1 of the Saudi Clerics said that if Israel does ANYTHING that Iran will take it everywhere ... meaning (I assume) to the USA, etc.

Then another article said that the Saudis and others are nervous about Iran and feel we should do something.

To me, it feels like a set-up. That’s why Newt’s answer made a lot of sense here. If the Muslim countries feel that Iran is an imminent threat now...to the point of telling *us* that we ought to do something ... shouldn’t THEY really do something?

Oh, and Ron Paul is nuts.

Paul is beyond annoying to listen to. Good grief, what a whiny little creep.

Ron Paul reminds me of Kramer: “I’m out there, Jerry! Way out there!”

Cain actually gave the best answer so far. We will continue such funding if it is meeting the desired objectives.

“the Syrian no fly zone”

Will it be like the Libyan one, where humanitarian bombs throw things up in the air, that are then considered “Flying”?
