[Esch]

sounds like someone's ready for a 3 front war right baby?

bring it iran

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Why does the anti-war party hate war? You can't be serious.

what sort of backwards thinking do you have to have to believe for a second the GOP is an anti-war party?

 

[speculawyer]

Why does the anti-war party hate war? You can't be serious.

GOP is the 'anti-war party'? Nice trolling.

 

[The Chosen One]

T-PAW needs to stop talking about Obama so much. Obama isn't on the stage. T-Paw needs to talk more about his own ideas.

 

[Jackson50]

Nice try, Pawlenty. Clinton said lawmakers that had recently visited Syria had referred to him as a reformer. And she stated that in March.

 

[Piecake]

Why does the GOP hate involvement in Libya? I can't see why they hate that action except for the fact that Obama is in the whitehouse.

Yup, only reason why the hate it since Libya is basically like a cheaper, more well thought out Iraq. What i mean is, once the WMD excuse was found out to be BS, they had that whole reason about getting rid of an evil dictator and fostering democracy in a dangerous region.

Kinda sounds like what is happening in Libya, except this case a significant portion of the population is also trying to get rid of their dictator.

Can't say it really surprises me that Republicans don't support it, because when the hell have they ever made sense?

You didn't just listen to Congressman Paul?

I was joking btw.

 

[Esch]

Great answer by Paul IMO

 

[PhoenixDark]

Amen Paul

 

[Oblivion]

Was the GOP EVER anti-war at any point in time? I know they used to like black people, but as far as I can tell, they've always loved war.

 

[besada]

Paul's a nut, but he's twice the man of anyone on that stage.

Oh shit, Paul just suggested we talk to Cuba. Could he kill his candidacy any more swiftly?

 

[Jackson50]

Yes. Cuba!

 

[ToxicAdam]

Paul kills it. If only another mainstream Republican had his balls.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Iran has been at war with us since 1979? ahahaha

 

[Baraka in the White House]

Where you live is a choice. Why not ride a bike or take the bus. There is no mandate that all people must own cars, people buy them out of choice.

This thread in this current topic isn't the place for this, but to suggest that where people live and work is a simple matter of choice is glossing over reality.

 

[Nert]

God, I am so happy to see Paul in this debate. There will at least be some variation in the answers to some of the questions.

 

[SolKane]

Paul's a nut, but he's twice the man of anyone on that stage.

Oh shit, Paul just suggested we talk to Cuba. Could he kill his candidacy any more swiftly?

Oh man, he just invoked the Shah!

 

[Raxus]

Anal discharge is SALTY!

 

[besada]

What's the over/under on whether they ask Paul about legalizing Heroin?

 

[Grizzlyjin]

History slipups don't look good on the highlight reel. Santorum shouldn't have jumped in off the cuff like that. I know he was hoping for his moment in the sun, but all he did was show that he hasn't researched the topic enough.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Finally a good answer from Cain.

 

[Clevinger]

Oh, Mr. Paul. If only you didn't have two shitty ideas for every awesome idea you have.

 

[delirium]

Is Bachmann that ignorant about the US constitution?

 

[speculawyer]

Oh Cain . . . you are completely delusional. Our oil production peaked in 1970. 19-fucking-70! We do not have oil resources to push oil prices down.

FFS . . . that was one of the craziest answers tonight.

I guess he really believes it. Idiot.

[Owzers]

i do love Ron Paul selectively.

 

[The Chosen One]

Ron Paul and Newt are probably my favorite debaters tonight since they're debating old school style.

 

[Clevinger]

Is Bachmann that ignorant about the US constitution everything?

Yes.

 

[Jackson50]

My initial thought was confirmed; Paul is the only candidate making a modicum of sense.

 

[Esch]

You dumb assholes. You can't smoke mushrooms.

 

[Vestal]

My initial thought was confirmed; Paul is the only candidate making a modicum of sense.

Thats pretty sad considering.

 

[Owzers]

Exerted our influence to create freedom? WOW.

 

[SolKane]

Santorum talking about Iran trampling the rights of gays, holy shit.

 

[Ulairi]

Huntsman has the ability to beat President Obama.

 

[Ezduo]

"...tramples the rights of gays..."

Someone better bring that up.

 

[SlipperySlope]

You dumb assholes. You can't smoke mushrooms.

Hmm. Now that I think about it, I wonder what would happen if someone tried.

 

[Jackson50]

Freedom?! We did not instill freedom in Iran, fool.

 

[aperman]

Ron Paul is the only candidate making sense.

Yeah, I voted for him in 08 and will in 12. not hiding it. RP ftw.

 

[Mortrialus]

"...tramples the rights of gays..."

Someone better bring that up.

Agreed. What the fucking hell?

 

[mj1108]

T-PAW needs to stop talking about Obama so much. Obama isn't on the stage. T-Paw needs to talk more about his own ideas.

GOP having their own ideas? Funny.

 

[Owzers]

Freedom?! We did not instill freedom in Iran, fool.

This world needs freedom...and we'll give it to them.

 

[besada]

Huntsman has the ability to beat President Obama.

You're delusional. Huntsman is already rotting fish, and after his performance in the debate it's only going to get worse.

 

[Bulbo Urethral Baggins]

Huntsman has the ability to beat President Obama.

No.
No he doesn't.
besada beat me to it. "rotting fish" is a perfect description.

 

[braves01]

My initial thought was confirmed; Paul is the only candidate making a modicum of sense.

It's not sensible to allow Iran to freely pursue a nuclear weapons program. I like Ron Paul. He's a great counter to a lot of the BS out there. But we have to do something to limit nuclear proliferation, especially to a country that is as openly hostile as Iran.

 

[ToxicAdam]

Huntsman has the ability to beat President Obama.

Huntsman can't even beat Herman Cain.

(coming from a Huntsman fan)

But we have to do something to limit nuclear proliferation, especially to a country that is as openly hostile as Iran.

No we don't. History has shown that we have ZERO ability to stop any determined country from becoming a nuclear power.

 

[Esch]

Hmm. Now that I think about it, I wonder what would happen if someone tried.

Nothing. Psilocin doesn't respond well to high temperatures. Which is why you have to be careful if you're baking with shrooms.

Paul is destroying.

 

[Synth_floyd]

RON PAUL! RON PAUL! RON PAUL!!!

 

[PushTheButtonMax]

Paul has an iron grip on that stage right now.

 

[The Chosen One]

Ron Paul just dropped the logic hammer.

Thank God he's at these debates otherwise it would be a GOP talking point wank-fest.

 

[speculawyer]

Huntsman has the ability to beat President Obama.

That is a moot issue since he lacks the ability to win the GOP nomination. He is one of the GOP's better candidates.


Ron Paul is indeed making a lot of sense right now . . . but it is just all his anti-war stuff. Beyond that position, he goes into crazy land.

 

[Jackson50]

It's not sensible to allow Iran to freely pursue a nuclear weapons program. I like Ron Paul. He's a great counter to a lot of the BS out there. But we have to do something to limit nuclear proliferation, especially to a country that is as openly hostile as Iran.

I did not state he was correct in every instance. But he correctly identifies the reason for their pursuit of nuclear weaponry. Moreover, he understands the history of Iran-American relations. Santorum embarrassingly displayed his ignorance on that issue.
