I hope you are right about Condi calling their bluff and knowing the Palies are going to fold...seems like she has tried that before and now Hamas is in control of Gaza and Olmert is under her thumb....not sure what she has accomplished in the SoS, with Korea, Syria, Lebanon, etc, come to mind!

So you think the so called “palestinians” are in a similar situation as blacks in Selma, Alabama before Jim Crow?

Because that’s Condi thinks.

Bush isn’t going to be president much longer. Huckabee might be soon. Try not to completely destroy our candidates before they even go up against the Dems.

All our candidates need to pick up on Reagan’s 11th commandment.

We here in the FR need to do the same. If we have disagreements, be respectful and argue about them. All I read when Huckabee comes up is trash-talk.

I haven’t even made my mind up on anyone yet, but one thing is for sure - you guys haven’t talked me out of Huckabee yet and never will using these tactics.

Both Rice and the Huckster are wrong on foreign policy. Condi Rice is busy destroying the nation of Israel, but has time to respond to a foreign policy newbie (the Huck).”

Basically, Condi is addressing their grievances that the Palies obstensibly have against the Israelis and saying, “Okay, is that your beef? Here’s your country, now you don’t have to worry about Israel, have a nice day..”, knowing damned good and well that given the choice between no Palestine and war with Israel or Palestine and no war, they’ll take the former each and every time.

I don’t mind if you vote for huck. I don’t think you should give any importance to me thinking he is slime either,honestly. Nobody else in the world cares what i think,and you won’t stop rush and the “insiders”, at least I hope not, huck is just too creepy, carter plus clinton equals huckabee for sure.

Huckabee completed his BA in 2 1/2 years himself. He could have been 19 as well.

Call him whatever you want, but you will be hard pressed not to call him an intellectual .

I started out liking Rice and I've ended up thinking she is incompetent. She is pretty, talented and graceful, but she is not the best person for the job at hand.

That said, Huckabee is showing signs of being hyper-sensitive and vengeful. I hate that. It is a scary trait for a President to have, and is part of the list of reasons I couldn't vote for McCain. The ONLY reason I keep Huckabee on my list of potentials is because everyone else is worse, in my opinion. Except for Hunter.

That said...I am thoroughly DISGUSTED by the way Huckabee has been treated by nearly every Republican I used to respect. The broken Party has no class and its lust for power has made it as dishonest as its enemy.

agreed. And the fact that the nickname “huckster” is so easy and starting to stick, ain’t helping his cause either.

Reagan’s 11th commandment is a myth. For proof search for the 1976 primary campaign, a battle royal between Ford and Reagan.

We do not see 99% of what goes on in State. We get a terse statement now and then, but if most of the real stuff were said in public most people would know why it isn’t.

If Condi is looking for religious war, the "only candidate with a Theology degree" is the one to give it to her.

It turns out that Huckabee doesn't have a Theology degree after all. He has rescinded that claim.

Huckabee is counting on *religion* to pull him through. But when you look at his record .. he is not all that conservative on issues that are *basic* to most conservatives. For example, he likes to raise taxes, protect illegal immigrants, he has supported the early release of a rapist from prison (who went out and did it again). Huckabee has even challenged the very foundation of Capitalism .. the Free Market! He called the free-market campaign organization the "Club for Greed".

Sounds more like someting Hillary would say, doesn't it?

Does Reagan’s 11th commandment apply to Ron Paul?

Just asking.

I am with you Fish.........the Condi club here hasn’t ever bothered to read the fine print.

They see “black”....”female”...oh goody

if she was a white guy from Alabama she’d be diddly....unless she were Jeff Sessions.....now that is almost a real conservative

remember all the Condi for POTUS folks here a few years back....that’s a hoot

“I still have fond memories of Ann Margaret in the movie!”

Chocolate, beans and soap.

I was 14 when it came out. She’s such a gorgeous woman.
