The 2012 Republican Primary thread, early edition

[wuapinmon]

I mean I know Wuap likes stuff about pooftahs and mormons and periphery intellectual wankers who bore most of us to death, but as for me and my house we want to perfect slow smoking of ribs.

Just when I think you couldn't be any more stupid, you go and pull a stunt like this.....................and totally redeem yourself by bringing up your love of eating hot smoked meat. You mocked "pooftahs" while leaving open the door for us to infer about your own bi-curiousness. Genius!

Newt complains that Romney stacked the deck, had his supporters fill the debate hall.

That's not because Ari is basically Mitt's homer on CNN, is it?

Mormons: bridging the gap between Ephraim and Judah since 1830.

I think he did, French Horn was a euphemism.

Lol.

Back to Israel, I am deeply afraid for Romneys foreign policy if he believes what he says. If he actually believes the typical"oh its all the Palestinians fault" then it will be a very long 4 years with him as prez in terms of foreign policy. I am afraid he will be too neo con in regards to Iran as well. Obama is being perfect on Iran right now, not too tough but not too weak. No romney, I dont want another war. I dont want a president who has no idea on what is actually going on in Israel. I dont want a President who just panders to neo con attitudes. I hope you are lying on this.

Romney is right about what's going on between Israel and the Palestinians. He recognizes that Israel is our ally. The Palestinians are not our ally. I side with our ally every time.

As for Iran, how is Obama handling it perfectly? He's doing nothing. He should be telling Iran to stop with the nuclear development. If Iran gets a weapon, it will use it on the USA and Israel. But Obama is too big of a pussy to tell our enemies to stop being a threat.

Romney has the balls to deal with the enemy. I don't see why that's such a problem.

have you missed the countless times Obama has said Iran can't and shouldn't get a nuke?
Is it already time for war? Not much else Obama can do outside of physical attacks.

Ignoring the fact that Israel shares a lot of the blame is not helpful. We shouldn't unconditionally support Israel and ignore their own human rights violations.

[Maximus]

And what he has said about Israel is far from being right, ally or not.

Boo! I don't care for your analysis. Whoever is advising Mitt on this issue has him thinking rightly.

Mm k. It's nonsensical redneck-level douchetastic non-feasible jibber jabber and he still lost himself astoundingly backwards South Carolina to Newt-- progressive stance and all. Bad politics all around. Trying to lock down that all-powerful Asian immigrant vote, Mitt, with those visa incentives for those with advanced math degrees? Keep it up! That's it! Pledge to veto the DREAM Act and lose vital swing states like Florida and Arizona now! yay! :igiveup:

He's gonna get depantsed by Obama on that issue unless he does some expert backpedaling and switching of tracks between now and the Big Show.

Look, I'm cheering for Romney to win for approximately the same reasons I'm cheering for Jimmer to make it big in the NBA (Rise and Shout!), but his seemingly ancient, hyper-right-wing stance on immigration is clearly contrived to wrangle some votes from meat and potatoes red states, and will be only be seen as his Achilles' Heel, vis a vis Jimmer's Defense.

The guy's practically Mexican. You KNOW he doesn't believe in so called "self-deportation" any more than he believes that American agriculture is a remotely profitable or even solvent industry without.. um.. guest workers.

You can't think I'd leave this alone. I hope you aren't implying that the ag sector would not survive without undocumented workers. While there are certain crops that depend on migrant labor, many migrants are legal now. Regardless, the vast majority of crops do not require any of the manual tasks generally performed by illegals.

Im curious about this. Why don't we hear of Palestinians who are looking to co-exist in Israel? Are they silenced by a vocal powerful minority? Do we only hear about the radicals? Do we fail to understand Israel's aggression?
