And if you think, for one second, Newt is going to put a small government, Constitutional judge on the Supreme court, you're smoking crack...

I think Newts picks to the Supreme court would be far superior to the trashy dykes Obama has appointed.

Bush sucked but his supreme court picks were good to an extent.

No candidate has said they would do that, including Ron Paul.

no...what Paul has said is, stop giving them freebies and they will self- deport. He is right.

Because the same thing could have been said about Bush. But with Bush we got supremes that are Ok. Not always right but overall ok.

Bushes supremes are to much pro police power. On the other issues they are good.

I understand that.

But the militia they are talking about is the one that the government calls terrorists.

A foreign guy I worked for didn't pay me all the money one time. I kept calling him once a day like you are allowed to. He put a restraining g order on me and I'm not kidding you 15 cops came out to serve it on me in several cop cars.

I have since got my revenge on the foreigner. I wont say what it was.

Yep, w/o question he would loose, big time. I don't care how much sense he makes, he looks and sounds like a crotchety old man on TV, & w/ 60% of the idiot electorate that right there disqualifies him.

Newt or Romney, that's the only chance you have of getting BHO out of the White House. You can try to order prime rib at McDoanald's if you want to, but you ain't going to get it because it ain't on the menu.

I was for Cain, but now that he's gone I'm w/ Newt.

All Newt will do is guarantee Barry a 2nd term. Conservatives and independents will not vote for Newt, just like they didn't vote for McCain.

Perry is an open borders guy and gives in-state tuition to Illegals. Romney is a Northeast flip-flopping libtard RINO that can't be trusted.

Newt is all of the above also.

I think he can win. It is an uphill battle but it could happen.

There isn't a chance in the world that he can win. His support has hovered around 8% or 9% nationally.

Yes, he has made significant gains in Iowa, BUT Iowa's primaries are January 3rd when all of the college kids are still out on winter break. Many of them won't even be in Iowa to vote for Paul in the caucuses.

Given the GOP's rule changes this year from winner take all states to proportional representation, Paul will walk into the convention with 8% or so of the delegates. This ensures that he'll get a speaking spot. That's it.

I used to work for this one very liberal guy. He shocked me when he said this.

He said that the country was so pissed off at Bush that they went out and elected a nigger. I'd never heard him use that word ever, never could have imagined him using it.

The ones who work hard, in jobs that American's won't take like gardening, should stay.

They should pay taxes.

They shouldn't be given citizenship and allowed to vote -- that should be their punishment for entering the country illegally.

Agree 100%. I will not vote for another liberal Republican. We have no defense against liberals Republicans in office. Liberal Republican failures = Democrat Party victories.

I will never vote for Romney, just like I didn't vote for Bush I in either 88 or 92, Bush II in 04, and McCain in 08.

No way.

I don't think Newt is totally bad like Obama. I think his picks would be better then Obamas.

Here is some of what I like or respect about Newt.

Welfare reform.

His recent stance on letting kids work in their schools if they want to.

His trying to get budget cuts when Clinton was President. And heading towards or helping balance the budget.

He favors a lower tax burden the Dems do.

There is a short list.

With Obama it is nothing.

Harriet Miers - is no conservative.

While head of the State Bar of Texas, Miers joined an unsuccessful effort to have the American Bar Association maintain its then-official position of neutrality on abortion. The ABA had adopted abortion neutrality at its 1990 annual meeting in Chicago after strong opposition by the State Bar of Texas to a pro-choice position. By the summer of 1992, at its annual meeting in San Francisco, the issue was again pending before the ABA assembly. Miers, who had not been involved in the Chicago meeting, supported ABA abortion neutrality in San Francisco.[11] At the San Francisco meeting, the ABA Assembly and House of Delegates voted to take a pro-abortion rights position, and the state bar of Texas dropped its plans to ask the ABA's policy-making body to hold a referendum of the group's 370,000 members on the issue.[12]

************************************************************************

On October 3, 2005, Bush nominated Miers to serve as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. Miers' nomination was criticized by people all over the political spectrum based on her never having served as a judge, her perceived lack of intellectual rigor, her close personal ties to Bush, and her lack of a clear record on issues likely to be encountered as a Supreme Court Justice. Many notable conservatives vigorously criticized her nomination, and numerous conservative groups normally considered part of Bush's political base planned to mount an organized opposition campaign.

Miers met with senators after her nomination was announced, and in those meetings she was ill-prepared and uninformed on the law.[24] Senator Tom Coburn told her privately that she "flunked" and "[was] going to have to say something next time."[24] In mock sessions with lawyers, Miers had difficulty expressing her views and explaining basic constitutional law concepts.[25] Miers had no experience in constitutional law, and did not have extensive litigation experience; at her Texas law firm, she had been more of a manager.[26] Miers had rarely handled appeals and did not understand the complicated constitutional concepts senators asked of her.[26] To White House lawyers, Miers was "less an attorney than a law firm manager and bar association president."[27]

Early one-on-one meetings between Miers and the members of the Senate Judiciary Committee were said to have gone poorly, and the White House considered suspending them to focus on preparation for the confirmation hearings. In an unprecedented move, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter and ranking Democrat Patrick Leahy also requested that Miers re-do some of her answers to the questionnaire submitted to her by the Committee, noting that her responses were "inadequate," "insufficient," and "insulting" because she failed or refused to adequately answer various questions with acceptable accuracy or with sufficient detail.[28] Miers also privately expressed a belief in the right to privacy to the pro-choice Arlen Specter, only to later deny that she had communicated that.[29] Her answers also included an error on constitutional law where she mentioned an explicit constitutional right for proportional representation; though many court rulings have found that legislative and other districts of unequal population violate the equal protection clause, the right to proportional districts is not explicitly mentioned in the United States Constitution.[30]

RINO Romney won't fix anything. He'll tinker around the edges to give his Wall Street buddies even more control. As result, we'll have Hitlery in office in 2016.

Actions have consequences. The consequences of liberal Republican"s growing government is liberal Democrats growing government even faster.

That's the problem that you, Micheal Medved and the rest of the GOP establishment just don't understand.
