Do we conservatives support giving people’s tax money to other people who do what the government requires them to do?

“At this pace, Thompson would have to be POTUS for the rest of his life. Why not propose something that POTUS can actually do without a Congressional majority? Too lame.”

They said the same thing about FDR, but 20 years latter his party implemented almost everything he fought for. Leaders see past their time. FDT is just here correct the mistakes and follies of the past.

Fred is kicking butt and taking names.

He is the ONLY candidate of EITHER party to stomp on the traditional “third rail” of political campaigns, Social Security. And his plan makes sense. Common sense.

Likewise his stance on illegal immigration. It’s reasoned, logical and, most important, DOABLE.

Massive FRed bump!!

I’m quite certain he’s being sarcastic.

First? To have a plan on immigration? McCain had a plan well before Fred. A plan to make things worse, true, but a plan nonetheless. When the McCain-Kennedy amnesty bill was being defeated in the court of public opinion last summer Fred was silent, but not so many of those who were already in the race. Hunter and Tancredo were focusing on the issue before Fred even started ruminating about running. Romney also came out with his plan, and was running TV ads on it here in Iowa, well before Fred entered the race. There’s nothing wrong about Fred, finally, coming out with a plan on immigration and talking it up. But to claim he’s first to do so is unbelievable and doesn’t benefit his candidacy.

I looked at some of his previous posts, I guess you’re right.

The real reason this is important is because it’s coming from NRO, which seemed in the tank for Giuliani.

That would be great to get rid of the “Press 1 for Spanish, Press 2 for English...” BS.

Yes, I would love to hear, "For English, Press '1'. For Spanish, vaya se a Mexico."

The majority of Presidential candidates’ promises, from both sides, depend on the voters thinking that the President actually has the power to do something once in office. As we adults all know, the power of the Presidency is more persuasive than active.

Fred came out against the amnesty deal last summer before he was a candidate.
