Republican Debate Open Thread / Live Blog II: The Reaganing

It can't go on, it goes on.

MITT:  Loves America, Reagan.  Hates answering questions.

TANCREDO: Relatively deft handling of bizarre question about organ donation.

RON PAUL:  I'm surprised he wears a suit.  You figure that he'd be in a bear skin -- better prepared for return to the state of nature.

ROE v. WADE:  Rudy punts, all others want it repealed.  Tancredo says the day that Roe is repealed would be the greatest day in US history.  Creepy mofo.

MITT:  What a weasel on abortion.  If I were a Republican who genuinely was anti-abortion, I would never consider voting for the slimeball.

McCAIN:  Jesus.  He makes Dole '96 look young and connected to reality.  He wants to be president to smite our enemies, or something.

HUCK:  Opposing abortion is what separates us from Islamofascists.  Wow.

THOMPSON:  Employers should be allowed to fire gays for being gay.

HUCK:  Points out the absurdity of Mitt's Conundrum ("my faith is so important to me, but it doesn't influence my decisions").  This really bugs Tweety, for some reason.  I guess Mitt's got a boyfriend.

BROWNBACK:  I love Jews!  Why, Joe Lieberman's a Jew!

HUNTER:  Seems determined to outflank Tancredo on immigration.  Which is hilarious.  It'd be like trying to out-stardust Kucinich.
