Paul also seems to have forgotten that Reagan made an attack on Libya without asking Tip O’Neill for his vote.

Did McCain just drop a bombshell? Getting Congress’ approval for an attack, is closer to reality than we’re saying now?

Yeah...he basically now has said "no attack on Iran", as we already KNOW what they're doing, and Congress would NEVER approve a strike while under Democrat control (as now).

So, Hunter has effectively said "no attacks without Congressional approval"...that sound bite will come back to haunt him.

The others have taken better positions.

Hmmmm, between all of them the ones who have more exposure and a better chance of beating the SHE-DEVIL/OSAMA ticket is FRED/GUILIANI! The mediaWHORES are constantly beating the drum for the BEAST666 and the rest of the candidates don’t have a prayer. The only ones who stand out of all the pubs are FRED and Giuliani ...sorry I say it like I see it!

Hunter has been a leader in Congress for many years, most recently the chairmen of the Armed Services Committee

The Iran question was the first one I've ever heard Romney (in my opinion) totally botch.

"You talk to your lawyers ... we'll let the lawyers sort that out "

Say what?

No, Fred was right. IT was Iraq. And I heard sons—plural.

This is the equivalent of Ford’s liberation of Poland.
***That’s probably true, once the media sorts through all this.

He’d talk to his LAWYERS first?

Dirty little D.C. secret: The closest advisor to any President is his general counsel. They are there to offer insight into and interpretation of the Constiution.

Mitt may have stumbled onto an honest answer.

In other words, Romney didn’t know the answer.
