If SP runs my respect for her would sky rocket. If she is just pulling a trump then she is more of a joke then the guy she's taking after.

Has any one heard of Herman Cain? My first response was "didn't you guys learn your lesson from Michael Steele?" But then I youtubed his foxnews sunday (only good show on FNC), and he wasn't that bad. He Sarah Palined some questions on the return and Isrial, but it is still quite early. I...

I was really excited about RP in 2008, watched alot of his speeches, I do respect the guy.

But he is not a serious condendor for the Republican nomination. The machine hates him too much.

MITT ROMNEY - Who complains that Obamacare, (which is a requirement for all states) is bad for the nation, but somehow his Romneycare (which is a requirement for HIS state) is ok because we need more sense like that. So, that leaves Sarah Palin as the only serious contender because the U.S. is full...

Newt, I've come to fear/suspect, has fallen into the John McCain trap of desperation to be Elected. Newt was, at one point, one of the true Conservatives I had great respect for. I think there is alot of truth here, but while I respect his intelligence, I don't really respect him as a man. I find m...

The trick to not thinking woodchip is a racist is to have debated him when Clinton was in office.....

If it is any consolation I want to believe you. But so long as elections are determined by TV ads, you wont get any politictions willing to do any of those things in your list.

Thats a cute story, but , again, how are you going to get those who spray the water to stop?

Gooberman

You may be right about that.

Rudy has the same problem trump does........wives.....perhaps times have changed for conservatives, obama campaign didn't make any issue about mccains wives.....but with with trump/geingritch/rudy, I think they would. [ Post made via Android ] http://www.desccentbb.net/images/mobile/Android.png

don't know what they were told to do or why but if I was being sent at night, by helicopter, into Pakistan to a place where bin Laden thought he was safe I would be on edge and expecting lots of bullets to come my way. So if the SEAL's shot him when, from a perspective thousands of miles away says ...

Gooberman

Bee is right Will, doing all that water carrying makes you forget you don't like these people. There are dems who think obama deserves all the credit, and there are republicans who give bush all the credit. In reality, they both get some. Obama has taken alot of political points from his base on the...

The little girl on the right echoes the dreams of every little girl I know, while the one on the left doesn't like where this thread is eventually going to go.

Exactly and Gore could have pulled that trigger just as easily as Bush did. If you think Al Gore would have invaded Iraq then your tin foil hat needs to be loosened up a bit. I don't count on a healthy voter defection being a death stroke to the status quo in one or two cycles but it might wound th...

I'm not seeing enough of a distinction in the net result regardless of which party gets to have their guy sit in the big chair and play with the wooden hammer or have their guy fly on Air Force 1. A lot of difference in the talk, but not in the net result. I know this is a very popular open minded ...

The republicans need their own Obama.

They need someone whose rhetoric is at least consistantly centrist, while still getting their base excited.

Gooberman

...and to add one more. I think one of the few things that the Republicans were able to do to "stick" to Obama was this whole "celebrity" argument. The longer Trump is in there, the better the Obama campaign will be at inoculating themselves against it this time around.

Gooberman

I don't see it, I think everyone here considerers themselves to be blessed to be living in a place that has these luxuries you describe. It is only when something is great, that people get so hyper-emotional about protecting it. Going along with your video game analogies, it is the "good" ...

Gooberman

There is no way, he is doing this for ratings. However, a VP pick wouldn't totally shock me if the Republican candidate was pretty far down in the polls.

if republicans don't pick someone who is moderate, this election will be a landslide for Dems.

Gooberman

Debating back the birther argument is a bit like "whack-a-mole" on this forum of late. It keeps popping up in different threads, only to be argued against, with no followup from the birthers.....to then pop-up in a different thread. If I whack this mole do you guys promise to keep it here?...

It will be another choice between one party who will increase your taxes and increase spending, and the other who will decrease your taxes and increase spending.

I've included below the ones that made it "on-air" at CNN. I (still) consider CNN to be the most fair of the big three cable news channels. Yet, when I read these replies its just frustrating; it's as if whenever a news channel allows itself to briefly delve into "opinion," then ...

President Obama. all he needs to do is produce his birth certificate and all this talk would be a moot point. so why hasn't he done it? ...and all you would hear for weeks is, "what took him so long?", "Why did it have to take so long?", "Why now, what is he hiding?!?"...

Recall that after the end of the first gulf war, the US pulled back and allowed Saddam to gank a bunch of his own people. It wasn't really realistic to expect anyone to stick their neck out and ask for help from the US given that history. Nobody wanted to be the village that started an uprising, as...

Gooberman

No, that's not at all my point. The Iraq war was also claimed to be to "help the people" out. But I think that before we invade a country or take military action to "help" someone out, that, as a "best practice," we should wait for them to ask us for help first. And if...

Obama is now the second iteration of Bush. Now? He's been Bush's 3rd term since the campaign started. And to his credit, he campaigned as such. I think alot of liberals are mad at him because they assumed he was just "saying that stuff to get elected." I'm really not sure why conservative...

I stole this topic from a CNN blog, but I wanted to see what people here's response would be. In Katrina, there was looting. Hati, Looting.

To play devil's advocate for a moment: Would you still support that rule if it was a funeral honoring a convicted serial killer, and you felt you needed to protest it?

Gooberman

The point of freedom of speech is to allow people to express opinions and ideas that might hurt, distress, or annoy others. Sometimes far more than the hurt of a punch in the face... I agree, but how does being at the funeral, rather then say the capital, further their message that "God Hates ...

Gooberman

Its against the law for me to punch you, but it is ok for me to protest your sons funeral because God hates fags. Which hurts more? Which causes more damage? Telling them that they cant say God hates fags would be limiting their free speech.Telling them that they cant picket a greiving families fune...

I understand the nobility of the "at all costs" defence of the first ammendment. But sometime we are just too anal about it.

Funny that the people most against the Iraq war are the ones most hopeful about Egypt's revolution, while the most ardent Bush supporters now think revolution in the middle east is going to lead to war. We go from an R president to a D president and all of a sudden, everyone's opinion flips... Even...

I think Foils a good choice, but come to think of it, I can't name any regular that I would think is a bad choice. We are a small group that have been around for a long time. So in that sense, I think all of this hoopla is a bit like mustard in a pocket watch.
