Stickied for the evening.


I won't be watching due to Detroit playing football and hockey tonight.
 
Mitt looks very relaxed. He probably should be.
 
I like Huntsman but sadly he doesn't seem to get any traction. Romney is my second choice, the bible thumpers make me puke. Perry's a moron. Newt's a dick, and Paul is too old and too goofy (personally)
 
Ron Paul just lied when he said blacks disproportionately get the death penalty. actually blacks have disproportionate numbers of murder convictions but not Death sentences

Politicians don't lie, they just don't always tell the truth.

Those who get the death penalty get it not because of who they are but because of who they have killed.
 
"What's the question?"
 
well Santorum just lost any chance to win in NH. If he had one...
 
Just a few minutes ago Paul said that everyone one the stage were honorable person. That was after he accused many of them of corruption and other strong charges. He is one loose cannon.

No one expected you to favor Santorum. Your claim is a rather hollow one.

Good grief. When did you turn into a liberal namecaller?

If you are referring to my comment about Paul, what I said was true. He made allegations and he did not refute the arguments back to him made by the ones he accused of wrongdoing.

LOL! If you wish to take on the traits of a liberal, I will understand.

You just noted Paul was a loose cannon so I guess that makes you somewhat liberal?

Newt's arrogant and Perry's stupid.

can you deny that?

I can say that, for the first time, I disagree with you. If Newt is arrogant, all candidates from all parties are. I don't believe a person becomes a governor who is stupid. Paul's comments are often right on the money. There are things that he says that I disagree with. That doesn't make him goofy. It might make some of his comments wrong, but wrong is different from goofy. My comment had to do with the specific charges Paul made tonight about his fellow candidates. He accused them of wrongdoing and corruption. They refuted him and Santorum even specified the details of the group who made a charge against him that Paul was using. Paul did not prove his case against any of them. That sounds like a bit of a loose cannon. If you wish for me to simply say that Paul was wrong, then I will gladly say that Paul was wrong. Saying someone was wrong is not namecalling like stupid, arrogant, or goofy.

I don't understand why the warning. The comment Jaxonse made was not inflamatory in the least.

name calling would be noting Newt is an asshole. he is arrogant-that is how I see him. And I do see Perry as stupid. Not a moron, not an imbecile but intellectually not awesome or even very bright. NOt smart enough to be president for my tastes.

Nor do I take offense for you calling me a liberal

I am a REAL liberal, not the reactionary parasitic statists of the left who have corrupted that term:mrgreen:
 
You make a good point! There I was thinking the rest of the field was going to come at him with everything but the kitchen sink, and he's managed to lose the bulls-eye target somehow--at least through the initial 40 minutes.

Well, there you go. I just called you what you agree you are. That would be like you calling me a conservative. That is not namecalling as I am a conservative. :)
