THAT was an over-the-top statement!
*I* did.
Is that true, Newt was said to have threatened to out Brit Humes son as gay, and he committed suicide???? I think that must be a stretch by yards. Flabbergasted that such a thing is said actually. No coroboration, no source anywhere? Come on.
Looked like Newt was going for Romneys throat at breaktime. LOL!!
“OMG. Sacred ground here...Terri Schiavo.”
I almost got myself bannd during that. I was ready to throw down over that.
I have seen the whole morphine/dehydration purposeful death thing carried out. I consider it murder. It’s appalling.
The children did this to a parent whom they never even let say goodbye to his pet.
So far, Mitt is winning this debate and Santorum is making a big impression too. Newt needs to clear up fannie mac big time...
As they went to break, Newt went over to talk to Mitt about playing dirty.
My gosh, Newt just again comes off as the smartest one standing on stage.
And he speaks more clearly. I can actually understand what he’s talking about very easily. Romney uses too much jargon. Santorum just makes it about himself.
Newt’s entreprenerial answer regarding NASA (incentvized with monetary prizes) was excellent.
Did that other reporter dude ask anything or was it all RAT-girl?
It’s important for NKP_Vet to know that all of the illegals that would be shot would in fact have last rites first. /sarcasm.
I think we have us a troll.
Ranking now
Newt — slightly ahead
Santorum-Romney — tie
Paul — strong third, less loony then the past, probably because few foreign policy questions!
IBTZ.
He started talking about Medicare because Romney accused him of lobbying for Medicare and influence peddling. Romney was the one who switched gears in the middle of his answer, and Gingrich had to tackle two accusations within his response time.
I agree but good debaters not only make good points, they control the debate. In most of the debates thus far Newt has shrugged off whatever may have been on the floor and controlled the debate.
What are you referring to? If illegal aliens can already join the military and become citizens, what is the need for a new Dream Act law to allow them to do that?
The silliness of this is that the country has met recruiting quotas during these military conflicts, but they now propose a big incentive for illegals to enlist, and they're also discussing force reductions.
NBC’s “IMPORTANT, PRESSING AMERICAN ISSUES!”, so far.
Castro might die someday.
Terry Schiavo
Swamp Rescue
Still waiting for the question about the gay marriage rights of three-legged Hispanic Lesbian Alligators.
It was romney that threw medicare in at Newt. He jumped ugly from freddie mac to medicare part d accusing Newt of influence peddling.
Who’s Steyn for?
The gay agenda.
