  • Not that I don‘t think it isn’t feasible that he was killed, but death by natural causes occur at all ages. My half-brother died at 29 of a heart attack…and HIS son died at age 31 of a heart attack.

  • Joisey…you‘re accusation would be more constructive if they weren’t so obviously skewed and prejudiced by the fact that Newt is not the candidate you wish to win the nomination. Your inability…or should we call it your unwillingness…to research the facts belittles your position and actually casts an appalling shadow upon the candidate you advocate for the nomination.

    1) adulterer – be careful about casting the first stone…I certainly wouldn’t want God bringing my forgiven sins back up again. Would you?

    2) pro-climate change – prove it. (before you get carried away trying to argue this point, I certainly hope you’ve read his book on the subject and listened to his testimony before the Waxman-Markey Cap and Trade hearings…you would look terribly foolish arguing a point without that information)

    3) ethics violations – actually he was cleared of all 84 charges…but don’t let that fact get in the way of your accusations. As for the $300K…you might wanna recheck your facts…it was not actually a “fine” he was paying…but again, its never too late to stop acting foolish.

    4) Amnesty in ‘86 – hmmm…I don‘t suppose you’ve read the facts on this either, have you? Perhaps you should declare Ronald Reagan a neo-con too, while you’re at it.

    5) Last night’s debate – you didn’t happen to read the Red Card Solution paper did you? If you had, you’d realize exactly WHAT Newt is advocating. But rather than actually research these things yourself, you’d rather take HIS statements and twist them to suit your pre-judgments.

    6) FDMC – every piece of evidence substantiates his claim that he never lobbied for them, but merely provided advice, which, as he said and is now proven, they never followed.

    7) Mandate – do your research and figure out the difference between a mandate to buy a specific product and

  • OMG, HANDICAPPED THE GAME? You’re concerned that someone betting on a HIGH SCHOOL FB Game is gonna lose a few bucks because of this? Did you even listen to the whole story. It was done AFTER THE CLOCK RAN OUT. The game was over before it happened. Where the HELL are your priorities?

  • OMG, who the hell are you and mandor to decide what is demeaning to Trent. Did he LOOK like he felt demeaned?

  • I actually find it almost unbelievable that people would actually think what you just posted, let alone be insanely stupid enough to actually post it. What’s the old saying? “Better to be thought a fool than to open one’s mouth and remove all doubt”.

  • With posts like yours, how would you even know when something is charity for the soul? You obviously have no soul.

  • You’d be completely wrong, Grandma. I have been calling for the Supreme Court to “fully dispose” of the issue of what constitutes a ‘natural born citizen’ long before it became an issue with Rubio. I have my own opinions as to what the founders meant when they inserted that phrase into the Constitution, but my opinion is just that…MINE. The only ‘opinion’ that matters is that of the Supreme Court. And they, as has often been noted by those on BOTH sides of this issue, have never ‘fully disposed’ of this issue. They’ve referenced it on a number of occasions in cases where the question(s) being answered by the Court did not require them to fully dispose of the issue of what is and is not a natural born citizen.

    The SCOTUS has to rule on this. I might not like the answer they give, but it ultimately their jobs to do this.

  • Despite the fact that arguments can be made from either stand point, the key to this whole this is that the Supreme Court has NEVER fully disposed of the issue of what a “natural born citizen” is. They have addressed the issue as it pertains to other questions brought before the court. But they have never addressed the issue to its fullest extent. That being said, The only way TO know what the founders meant by the use of the term is to go back to their writings…something the author of this article seems to feel is rather silly.

    I don’t know of a single conservative who would NOT like for Rubio to be eligible. However, the issue of what constitutes a ‘natural born citizen’ and what does not has clearly not been resolved. Anyone who is not willing to call for the Supreme Court to rule on this issue once and for all is clearly allowing their personal prejudices to rule.

    I actually don’t disagree with Paul on many of things he says. Though I think he is like 50 years too early or 100 years too late in his arguments. Even if he’s right about what we SHOULD be doing, we are not ready as a country to face the consequences of removing 950 military bases in foreign countries or thumbing our noses at countries like Israel or pointing a gun at the Federal Reserve at suggesting they leave our country if they know what’s good for them. That all sounds so very nice to the OWS people. But won’t solve any problems and will create a boat load more.

    So Paul is out in my book. Cain is a refreshing candidate who has the gumption to be a good president or vice president. However, at such a vulnerable time in our world, it does scare me to have someone in the oval office who has no experience on the foreign fields.

    My vote, at this point, is going to Newt. I have read his 21 Century Contract thoroughly and agree completely. I think he has the personality and experience and the plan to handle this country at this time. He certainly would wipe the floor with Obama in a debate.
