GOP Debate Thread

Romney calls for not favoring one type of energy over another through specific government policies. Then he calls for opening up oil and natural gas.

Newt's answer to the Judge question is right on as well.

 

[Avorysuds]

Ron paul is full of it!

He puts earmarks in bills he KNOWS will pass without his vote and then votes no.

He tries to have it both ways.

You're an idiot... Pay attention.

You think that guy is an idiot? No way!

Riiiiiiiight, you are not helping your case by pretending you don't understand me.

Yeah. You see, when you favor having all energy sectors growing, you promote all energy sectors. Not just everything but oil and natural gas.

Invoking American exceptionalism to justify gutting the courts! Newt showin' his neo-con colors. Heil newt!!

He's a historian, dammit!

 

[Oscar Wao]

Newt translation: I'll pull an FDR if they make a ruling I don't like...

 

[ladyliberal]

Gingrich claimed that Jefferson abolished 18 of 35 judges (judgeships, presumably) and that no one in power criticized him. If both those things are true it is the most surprising thing I've heard this year.

Are you pretending not to understand me?

If by nailing you mean admitting that he taking them while voting against them, yes, yes he did.

Exactly!

Ron Paul tries to have it both ways.

AND RON PAUL WOULD NOT SIGN THE NO EARMARK PLEDGE. And guess who wanted millions in earmarks, recently? Ron Paul!

How the hell else is he supposed to get the money expropriated from his taxpayers back to his taxpayers?

C'mon....Tell us.

BY FIGHTING TO CUT TAXES!

NOT by earmarks that come back for sweetheart deals and bridges to nowhere (yes I know that was in Alaska)

The only way Ron Paul can do that is with earmarks???????

Don't hand me that! I LIVE in the state that has every building you can see (downtown) named after some politician who's good at earmarks.

It DOESN'T help the state's economy. If it did Obama's stimulus would have worked.

SO DON'T HAND ME THIS CRAP. DON'T GIVE ME THIS DOUBLE TALK.

If one government fund is bad for the economy (stimulus) then another one is TOO (earmarks) IT'S STILL SPENDING THAT SINKING THIS COUNTRY UNDER DEBT!

It's Grade A homogonized bullshit, that Ron Paul is doing that for ANY OTHER REASON THAN the reason any other politician does it: VOTES!

If Ron Paul believes what he believes HE WOULD WALK THE WALK not just talk the talk.

He doesn't and he never has.

He's a historian, dammit!

He's a fascist, dammit.....He hates the oligarchy right up until the point that it agrees with him, then everything is just jake.

He did. and since the Democrats and not the Federalists were in power it's quite possibly true.

 

[Jackson]

Wow, look at the moderators go after Gingrich! I think he's doing great. And Romney won't cooperate! Bachman just backed up Gingrich.

 

[dblack]

The courts are not the final arbiter of law. Wow.... these nutjobs are going off the rails.

And Ron Paul is radical???

 

[LoneLaugher]

Why do candidates leave out the "of the" when they say "President of the United States"?

 

[Oddball]

Exactly!

He doesn't and he never has.

Things like fuel taxes to pay for roads and bridges are what they are...Those are taxes you really can't get rid of as they pay for legitimate functions of lawful gubmint.

The game is what it is and he has to get the money his constituents pay in somehow....How do you propose he goes about that?

 

[teapartysamurai]

The courts are not the final arbiter of law. Wow.... these nutjobs are going off the rails.

Ron Paul IS the nutjob.

 

[dblack]

Romney makes a good point about appointing justices. Good for him.

 

[dblack]

The courts are not the final arbiter of law. Wow.... these nutjobs are going off the rails.

And Ron Paul is radical???

Ron Paul IS the nutjob.

Heh... not in this crowd. Wow!

 

[SAT2]

Yes, he said that and he's correct...The marriage of big gubmint and big bidness -which is what F&F is- is the definition of fascism, nitwit.

Nope, sorry. That's not the definition of fascism. Look it up some time.

Yes, yet it is...You look it up, numbnutz.

I have. It's not. Paul is playing you for a fool.
