When Huckabee becomes President, the national anthem will be replaced with "Onward Christian Soldiers." Science will be replaced with the Bible, and Jesus will be the Vice President. At the Huckabee inauguration, we will party like it''s 1959!

Why do dislike him? I am a pub and find him to be a very likeable man with integrity

tucker,

You continue to invent facts. Polls consistently showed a tight race between Kerry & Bush from August on in 2004. The polls were right on the money, especially Zogby. Kerry had a substantial lead after the democratic Convention and before he went wind surfing for the month of August while the GOP smear machine and swift boaters ran wild...that''s the real history of 2004.

Under no circumstances will I vote for Barack Obama and I am most of the time a strong democrat supporter. Where did this guy come from anyway. Oh that is right, around Chicago, crime city USA. I repeat, if Hillary Clinton does not win the nomination, I will write in Ron Paul''s name.

Dems, as a party, advocate for open borders and gay marriage (and abortions on demand).

That is their party platform.

Posted by tuckerndfw at 10:28 AM : Jan 01, 2008



Proof?

It seems to me that if the Democrats in Congress killed the "Illegal Alien Amnesty Bill" that Bush lobbied so hard to get passed, that would hardly seem like a ringing endorsement of open borders.

And I also haven''t heard ANY mention of gay marriage and / or civil unions in the campaigning that been happening in Iowa or New Hampshire.

Therefore your hollow comments, have no merit. AND NEVER ONCE have I heard it as described as their "party platform".

But then again, Bush didn''t run on the campaign of, "If I get elected, WE WILL INVADE IRAQ!!!" in the 2000 elections either.

Hillary is the most despised candidate in the field. That is the key factor.

Posted by tuckerndfw at 10:24 AM : Jan 01, 2008


And the absolute hatred of her, is nothing compared to the absolute apathy of the incompetent republicans that are running.

None of them have any platform except, "My religious faith, is stronger than the other guys religious faith!!"
Another politician that talks to god is the last thing that this country needs.

The Democrats advocate for gay marriage so I''m missing your point.

I said Americans do not support the Democrats'' agenda; you argued they do.

BTW, my opinion is all civil marriages should be eliminated. That would solve the whole problem.

If you''re not g`a`y, and it doesn''t affect you, then why do you care?

I think the opinion of most of America is that they don''t care one way or the other. Live your life however you want.

I think the whole institution of marriage is a sham - hetero or ho`mo. I was married and it turned into a dismal failure. The only people that benefited from it were the lawyers that made over $4800 in legal fees. If we weren''t married, we could have just separated, I pay her child support, and it''s done.
Instead we had to hire lawyers, file motions, yada, yada. It took over a year, and for what? So lawyers could make money.

I do not share your trust in polls that involve "p.c." issues. Based on the 2004 elections, it is fairly obvious the majority of Americans oppose "gay rights."

Posted by tuckerndfw at 09:58 AM : Jan 01, 2008


Why not put it to a national referendum vote?

Or why not leave it up to the individual states?


And as far as the immigration and open borders comments, and your blaming it on the Democrats:
Yes the bill was created by Ted Kennedy. But make no mistake - NOBODY WANTED THAT BILL MADE INTO A LAW MORE THAN BUSH!!!! And it was only the MAJORITY DEMOCRATS that killed it and prevented it from becoming a law. I still remember the look of absolute disappointment on Bush''s face that 12 million illegal aliens WEREN''T going to get amnesty.

tucker,

You claim that Hillary is the least electable candidate. I beg to differ; she''s the least electable Deomcratic candidate.

Looking at the latest Zogby head-to-head matchups(the only way to know how electble any Democrat or Republican is in a general election) here''s the scorcard for each major candidate:

Obama 5-0
McCain 2-1
Guliani 2-1
Edwards 3-2
Huckabee 1-2
Clinton 2-3
Romney 0-3
Thompson 0-3

The best matchup for dems is Obama vs. Romney(53%-35%). The best for Republicans is either McCain, Guliani, or Huckabee against Clinton.

The most unelectable candidates are Romney and Thompson.

Expect Obama vs. McCain.

Objective polling is the 2004 elections when "gay rights" were on the ballots in several states and was soundly defeated in every one of them.

Which is far more persuasive than some survey taken by some college intern.

Posted by tuckerndfw at 10:09 AM : Jan 01, 2008

Nice try, tuck. But the 2004 initiatives were not about gay rights, but rather, same *** marraige.

Which, for some reason, scares the crapola out of the homophobes. Go figure.

I said it was a "potential", which you can not debate.
This person''''''''s post obviously and absolutely seethes with hatred.
Posted by formrusmcsgt at 09:53 AM : Jan 01, 2008

HERE IS YOUR POST
Considering that some neocon xenophobe would probably try to assasinate Obama jsut because of his Arabic heritage, I don''''''''t think having Hillary one heartbeat from the presidency is very prudent.....

Well jowand, you obviously feel you''re dealing with a child here.

I made the post in general to which you challenged me to provide some specificity. I posted the comment from
goldstarjanr in response.

Now, you cut and paste from the two different posts to try to make them look like one.

You are really desperate, and outgunned as well.

Keep up your games. I''ll keep shutting them down. Not really much of a challenge.....

Ron Paul would beat her in a head to head match up.

Posted by tuckerndfw at 10:01 AM : Jan 01, 2008

Paul can''t get more than 5% of the Repubs to support him.

What makes you think he could get 51% of the electorate to do so?
