“Your position will inevitably result in Big Government™ abroad and at home.”

Ignoring the threat won’t make it go away. The radical islamists in places like Iran will want to kill us regardless of what we do. And historically there have been two key roles for government, Rule of Law and National Defense.

No one has bested Newt in the debates. No one.

Yeah, vote for Newt. Pelosi, Hilliary, the illegals and the DNC will appreciate it.

You're ignoring the root of this problem.

The only reason these "radical islamists" have any capability to do dumb things is because the Western establishment (including the U.S., which stupidly allowed itself to get entangled in this miess) keeps feeding them money (foreign aid, oil exports) and weapons in a feeble attempt to bring them into the sphere of Western influence.

Of course, any "fixes" from the Western establishment usually compound existing problems - as is typical of Big Government™ "solutions."

Well, I will certainly say this. I just watched Herman Cain deny every allegation and every claim being made against him and he did NOT evince any of the usual signs of deception. No micro-expressions, no change in his blink-rate, absolutely no sign of any falsehood that I could detect.

If he's lying, he is one of the best liars I have ever seen (i.e. I believe him 100%).

He is still not my preferred candidate. I think he is sorely lacking in foreign policy knowledge and experience and I think he is also lacking in the type of experience that makes for a good governor in public life, but he is not so objectionable that I would not vote for him.

If he is nominated, I will support him and do so with some enthusiasm.

Just not yet, :)

Nation building is NOT national defense, and starting illegal wars of aggression completely violates any concept of rule of law.

Not after he shot off his mouth about Cain today

Yep, I was too until today.........In fact, any of the GOPers who don't stand up for Cain have lost my respect......

It will be Newt Bachman, just wait.

Cain is an amateur, he is a mile wide and an inch deep.

The longer Cain lets this fester the worse it will be for him and us.

I don't know where you've been but Cain has addressed every allegation that's come out......The only festering that's going on is from the Cain haters who are waiting, aka, praying, for him to cave in and withdraw from the primary......

it’s one example.

you can’t trust what newt says.

remember how rush said in january 2009 that he hoped obama’s policies failed?

newt agreed.

and the msm media demanded that rush and newt et al apologize.

rush did not apologize.

newt did apologize to the leftists.

“I don’t know where you’ve been but Cain has addressed every allegation that’s come out.”

Dont you remember how he changed his story three times the day these first came out? And we just had two issues then, I think we are up to 5 now. I’m sure a few of them are fake but it only takes one to be true. And the way he is responding is just not inspiring confidence.

You might want to examine your own posts chum. Your attacks against anyone who dares to question whether Cain is being truthful have been as vicious as any I have seen on FR.

I just had to laugh about that one....you know...pondering the astronomic significance [re: libertarians] and irrelevance [re: actual impact on the collective thought] of it all at once......very funny.....

Gingrich, Romney and McCain all have one thing in common: Their sense of entitlement to the office simply because they have spent their entire lives in GOP politics, funded by taxpayer dollars and made millions from their capital hill cronies and lobbyists.........

That's why the Tea Partiers came into being, we're sick and tired of the sameo sameo bullshit from these posers.

We want new blood in the political arena and the 2010 election proved our resolve...........
