Did you see Duncan Hunter on Glen Beck's show tonight? He was fantastic...absolutely fantastic. You just wanted the show to last longer. What a wonderful President he would make.

My sources tell me that it will be up on YouTube shortly.

As I mentioned before no one was putting pressure on sanctuary cities then. Romney was one of the first Governors to get state police envolved with immigration. This issue has only recently become huge!

A couple of years ago, I thought we would be banned here for posting immigration threads.

I apologize, if I seemed snippy. Sometimes in the heat of the moment we react instead of think.

Well we know Romney wasn’t worried about sanctuary cities.

He was gov. for 4 years and did nothing to end the MASS sanctuary cites.

He is a phony of the highest order.

Wow. You are easily fooled.

Romney only signed that bill into law during the last month of his term.

3 years and 11 months in office and he did nothing.

It shows his phony/sleazy/ slippery ways. Try to fool the people.

That damn law he signed didn’t catch one illegal. NOT ONE DAMN ILLEGAL.

I think it is more of a sales call for Mitt. He’s just pitching the potential customer what he wants to hear.

Mitt said his favorite book is Battlefield Earth. Which is pathetic.(Both the statement and the book)

I have never heard of, nor seen Mitt make any allusions to any serious writer, book, economist or philosophy. He is something of a blank slate, a cypher, politically. So, I think it is fair and acurate to say Mitt is not well read and unfamilure with ideas, conservative or otherwise.

Mitt had one, undistinguished term as Governor of a politially sick, near neigh one party state. He bought the Republican nomination, although the party was pretty desperate. The Democrats have so long been in charge, that they have become incestuous characters. They have long since left their working class roots and are now to the left of Hillary. Believe it or not, Ted is rational compared to the Mass Dem leadership. Think of a state size Berkeley.

Mitt was thinking of running for President, which I always believed was in his mind since his father ran, and lost. Mitt was pretty stupid. He should of been a conservative gadfly. He wouldn’t of lost anything, as he had no impact anyways, but at least he could of said he fought the good fight. It would of been cost free for him and cemented him as the wild man of Massachusetts.

But he didn’t. He kind of worked with in the system and the system won.

Massachusetts Laws of Political Physics.
Nothing on the level.
Every thing is a deal.
No deal too small.

What? How about you show me one who did?

Romney sure didn’t. Yet he was a gov. who cared so much about illegal immigration? Hogwash.

He saw the trend and tried to put something on the books in MA that he would be ablt to tout as being tough on illegals.

Sorry, I can see thru a scam.

P.S. I can tell you Thompson and Hunter weren’t for sanctuary cities. Neither was Tancredo.

But McCain and Romney and Rudy all thought the amnesty was a good thing. Romney called “reasonable.”

"Mitt said his favorite book is Battlefield Earth. Which is pathetic.(Both the statement and the book)"

Easy. Pro Immigration. Anti illegal. Pro law borders, security.

If Republicans can establish that first, I’d like to see the Dems work around it. Dems have been, rightly, getting whacked on law and order since Nixon.

“Romney sure didn’t”

I was ready to believe Romney on the life issue, for example, as people do change their minds, but Romney has changed his mind about so much stuff. That’s why I doubt him. Conservatives, including pro-lifers, have been burned, so we need to be very, very careful.

Since I don’t have cable, I’m REALLY looking forward to seeing the You-Tube.

I heard the Glenn Beck interview tonight was SUPER.

What does that have to do with anything?

You make no sense.

I’m talking about the guys who are running for President.

if Romney wins he nomination, Romney will not be able to stand up to the democrats for their support of amnesty, open borders, supporting an illegal invasion, sanctuary cities.....because Romney’s record will effectively give the democrats an out, and means to beat Romney by saying, We (democrats) supported the same policies Romney did. This is nothing more than a set-up to help the democrats win the White House....Then both the democrats and the republican nominees will go wild with promises of gift programs....different parties....same philosophy.....mho
