Red China is a protectionist country.
Duncan Hunter will bring back high-paying jobs to our country which we lost because of bad trade deals with Red China and the rest of the world and cheating by Red China.
While Duncan Hunter voted No for Most Favored Trade Status with Red China, he voted Yay for trade with Australia, because it was in our county’s best interests.
Iowa, here’s your social conservative:
Hunter and Brownback (but Brownback dropped out) were the only presidential candidates to attend the pro-life march in D.C., Hunter fought the aclu to keep the Mt. Soledad cross, Hunter fought to allow students to pray in schools, and President Reagan even called Hunter and praised him for his fight, and Hunter introduces the personhood-at-conception law each year, and more.
There are many religious conservatives in Iowa, and if they only knew what a social conservative Hunter is, they would vote for him.
Article by Richard Bradley. “In September 2006, the Kennedy School invited former Iranian president Mohammed Khatami to speak. Though by Iranian standards Khatami is considered a reformer, Mitt Romney blasted the move as “a disgrace to the memory of all Americans who have lost their lives at the hands of extremists” and tried to deny Khatami police protection”.
Go MItt!
I don't see the words "drill", "refine", "mine" or "coal" in there.
Huckabee is out to supper.

Huckabee has stated on many occasions that we should immediately start drilling in Anwar. Increased oil production, in his opinion, will not be enough to achieve energy independence.
Energy independence would be great but at what cost?
So, tell me, what's Hunter's problem? The reason why I ask is because he's *not* showing up on any radar screen.
Hunter is a representative. His constituency has been a district in California, about 650,000 +/-. He has not held a statewide office. He has no national name recognition. His organization is small. His campaign warchest has a difficult time getting out his name let alone his message. Not everyone reads FR.
He is also too conservative for the MSM to give him the time of day early and, therefore, boost the popularity of an otherwise good candidate.
Huckabee submitted a white paper to the Council on Foreign Relations, a rather prestigious outfit. Energy was a significant part of the five page single spaced screed. In fact he said, "The first thing I will do as president is send Congress my comprehensive plan for achieving energy independence . . ." It is so important it will be the first thing he does!
Perhaps that would have been a good place to put something about drilling off shore and in Anwar, developing oil shale, opening up Escalante to clean coal mining, expanding natural gas drilling and promoting liquid natural gas ports in the U.S.A.
Instead we get the whole appeal to greenies, " alternative energy: nuclear, wind, solar, ethanol, hydrogen, biomass, and biodiesel".
If he missed this opportunity, it is getting a lot of press, one could easily conclude there was a reason for it.

The title of this article is funny to me. The Rage in Huckabee’s voice. Just think of the shaking going on in the terrorists’ boots knowing that Huckabee wants to shut down Gitmo in order to make the Wahhabis and Mullahs happy.
Mike Huckabee will be the end of the GOP if he ever gets elected.
I don’t know the original source for this, and don’t have time this morning to look for it, but when I googled the three names, Huckabee, Bolton and Gaffney, I got this link I’m posting at the end of my comments.
On this page some blogger type comments that Huckabee, when asked who he would seek advice from on foreign policy, replied that he would seek advice from people like Frank Gaffney and John Bolton. Of course the blogger commenter was horrified and said, can you imagine, he would seek advice from the very neocons who got us in such terrible foreign policy trouble in the first place.
Folks, if this is accurate, then all this means is that Huck was asked a question once about who he might consult and he named those two people.
In no way is this a basis for claiming that Bolton and Gaffney are advisors to Huckabee. In fact that he would answer that question with those two names shows just how mixed up the Arkansas flimflammer has to be. They have polar opposite views than the ones he has expressed.
Here’s the link, but you can google those three names and maybe scroll down until you find the original incident when he popped off his big mouth.

"Saddle Me Up"
HEEHAW, HEEHAW
NRA of America
Stand Up Now
I always thought your group stood for the 2nd. Ammendment. I also thought the NRA wanted to elect politicians supporting gun ownership. What's your problem?
"My idea of gun control is a good, steady aim."
Did you know on Dec. 21st. in a speech in Iowa Fred Thompson said:
When someone asked about what the government could do about AK-47s and the Westroads Mall shooting, Thompson said that assault weapons are not the problem, it is the people using them inappropriately; and it is not the government's place to remove guns from rightful citizens.
"Look at those church shootings," he said, in reference to the Colorado Springs, Colo., shootings that killed five and wounded five on Dec. 9. "That armed volunteer saved countless lives."
Thompson added, "My idea of gun control is a good, steady aim."
Is this not what we want?
Where are our leaders?
Why doesn't the NRA have TV spots right now endorsing and supporting Fred Thompson?
If we fail to do so we may have a Democrat or a liberal Republican elected, who will then push to limit or eliminate private gun ownership.
Freepers Call your NRA Headquarters today and give them your opinion.
You’re both right.
Tehran is the home of Shiite terrorism. Saudi Arabia is the home of Sunni terrorism.
