Duncan Hunter is a good man. It’s too bad he’s not a viable candidate.

Perhaps he can be Secretary of State or Secretary of Defense.

Hunter recounted the clandestine attack by Israel in 1981 on the light-water nuclear materials testing reactor in Osirak, Iraq. It was crippled by Israeli aircraft in "Operation Opera" — a pre-emptive attack to prevent Saddam Hussein from using the reactor for the creation of nuclear weapons. After the attack by the eight F-16 aircrafts, Hunter recalled, many world leaders publicly chastised the action as a terrible thing. "Then, they all walked into their offices, and I can tell you this, they closed the door and breathed a sigh of relief . . . because Israel had the courage that none of them had."

Hunter gets it.

The more I hear about this guy, the more I like. I plan on voting for him, eventhough it may not have a chance. But he’s the only Republican that’s a Republican.

***Yup. And where would we be today if Iraq had a healthy nuclear program? Would Iraq have used nukes in their war on Iran? Remember they used chemical & bio weapons. Would they have used nukes in GulfWarI? You betcha. We are in Israel’s debt.

If I’ve learned one thing over the past few years it’s that my conscience feels a heck of a lot better if I don’t hold my nose to vote. At this point there are only two men in the race that fit the bill and neither one of them are among the top tier.

In any case I’ll be voting my conscience and the GOP be damned.

Bravo. I would hope Hunter would clean out the infestion of Arabists from Foggy Bottom as well.

....which would essentially mean cleaning out that entire dept., of course.

..F-16s, which I built electronics for—the first time the Falcon was used in a combat situation...

Too bad the American Jew will not only not vote for him but venomously attack his Republican party.

Their motto is never again....until they let them

>Duncan Hunter is a good man. It’s too bad he’s not a viable candidate.<

If you love your country and want to preserve it for your descendants, you had better get on your knees and pray that he wins, Cf. You had better dig deep in your pockets to insure his campaign. You had better roll up your sleeves and pitch in to get the word out about him. Because no other man running, or not yet running, has the qualifications needed to retain our sovereignty, and freedoms which so many have died for through the centuries than Duncan Hunter.

Some Jews will vote for him.

....like yours truly, for instance.

I'll be sending this article around the email circuit; hopefully it catches fire.

I heard him today for the first on on Laura Ingraham, and could get a better "feel" of who he is. I was impressed !

However, it is my belief that THE MEDIA is the one who makes Presidents..and Duncan, according to how the media works, just isn't sexy enough. They wouldn't have juicy stories, scandals, women , etc. to latch on to. Sad, he is a good man from what I have seen so far.

He has been for decades. I doubt that translates into votes though. And with the exception of Paul, all the Republican candidates are pro-Israel and pro-WOT.
