IowaPolitics.com: Tancredo Surprises Hunter by Backing Romney

Tancredo allows a gentlemen’s agreement to rule over the issue of his one issue candidacy?

The guy's a nut.

Choose wisely:

Excerpt:
Now, here is where my plea for Mormons to simply tell the truth comes in. This is America. You can believe anything you want.

If you want to believe that God was once a human being, that Jesus was his physical son, that you can become a God yourself, that Jesus and Satan were brothers, you can certainly do so.

But tell the truth! If you believe it, be proud of it—don’t try to hide it.

I’ve resolved myself over the course of the last few weeks that (at least as far as my intentions) there won’t be a consideration “after” Fred or Duncan. If “our side” can’t muster enough moral and intellectual honesty to promote a conservative candidate, then we as a country get who we deserve.

I will be casting my vote for Mr. Thompson, even if it’s as a write-in...

Romney’s a liberal !

Romney’s a liar !

Romney’s a fraud !

You know it, and I know it.

(Repeated for your pleasure because you can’t disprove a word). :-)

"Romney buried MA GOP."

Dead and buried.

After watching Romney flip-flop for an hour over his defense of flip-flopping I started to get hungry for some fish.

And then I saw Thompson walking around Iowa telling people that he’s not about fulfilling their fantasies and not about making promises he can’t keep. He’s about having set values and abiding by them. Much of the perceived weakness of his Senatorial sit was, in my estimation, his refusal to deal, compromise values and “play the game”. If I recall his disgust for the entrenched system and how it tired him was why he left it.

Romney would be “Bush III”, Huckabee would eventually be be beat down by the Dems over religion (and being weak)...the presses preferred candidate against Hillary or Obama. Hunter’s nads scare those who don’t have any and McCain is 2007’s Bob Dole.

Thanks for your posts here. I haven’t laughed that hard in some time. The government really should tap you for analysis...they surely aren’t getting good info from the people they’re using.

How 'bout some catfish, our unequaled Southern delicacy ? And we can't forget the tartar sauce. Sacrilege not to serve it with. ;-)

But seriously, I think DC just couldn't handle Fred and the change he'd bring (but he's the gigantic enema that town has needed since Reagan departed). He truly got fed up with the bull$hit there and could feel it trying to feed on his soul before his 8 years in the Senate concluded. I'm amazed he'd consent to want to go back there, but we know now, at least us honest folks, that he's not doing it for ego or over some crazy obsession stemming from the fact that daddy was denied the job, but because he gives a damn about his kids and the world they stand to inherit.

I doubt the government would want me, either. They seem content to employ those that want to keep things exactly as they are, with the lies, the nonsense and the garbage they spin like spiders, growing ever so much larger by the day, until they trap us all within it and eventually kill this grand American experiment in republican democracy.

Of course, Jefferson was ultimately correct that the tree of liberty must be replenished from time to time with the blood of patriots... and that of tyrants. I just don't want that tyrant to come from our party, which it may cease to be by February... :-\

Outstanding - and pass the lemon wedges too.

YES I think Fred got a second wind from looking at the world his blessed second family would inherit. Nothing else explains it after he’s already achieved financial security, a respectable legislative legacy, a critically acclaimed acting career embarked upon as a hoot. Fred may be the only candidate free of the hard knuckle of overt powers (corruption).

I’d vote for him for that alone. Mr. Smith has GOT to go to Washington before that city drowns in corruptive influences and drags the rest of us down with it.
