I think it would be useful to discuss what people know about the ideas various candidates are putting forward concerning taxation.

Nothing wrong with discussing various tax proposals by the candidates. Can we do that without dragging every other issue into the conversation?

Taxes

I think it would be useful to discuss what people know about the ideas various candidates are putting forward concerning taxation. Of course that's only true if some people know a lot more than I do.

O.K. folks. Let's go back in the direction of tax issues before this political/religious discussion deteriorates.

Thanks.

It's refreshing

To me it's refreshing to see a reference to evolution coupled with the word "belief", since most adherents of the theory prefer to refer to it as a "fact". Personally, I don't have enough blind faith to believe in evolution when I rationally consider the explanations scientists provide for it.

I don't believe in

macroevolution either.

Ron Paul????

Shades of Ross Perot.

The Republican base is so pissed off at Congress for bloating government and increasing spending that this type of radical change may be their only hope for getting the base back.

If you want radical change, how about Ron Paul? Some of his ideas sound good, but he seems a little extreme.

One problem with Huckabee is that he is one of the candidates who stated they did not believe in evolution. It is understandable that someone may not believe we evolved from a one-celled lifeform, but it seems hard to equate that to a complete absence of any form of evolution. His basis is the bible, but the bible also mentions the "four-corners of the world" which a literal reading could be interpreted as "proof" that the world is flat.

A good thing about Huckabee as a candidate is that he seems to be the most likeable personality and has a good sense of humor.

I like it

Huck(our ex-governor)'s kinda movin' up in the polls, isn't he?

Your subject; sounds like a good name for a novel. Or if it's about Huckebee's campaign,
a novelette. (grin

He's the only candidate "selling" the Fair Tax

The Republican base is so pissed off at Congress for bloating government and increasing spending that this type of radical change may be their only hope for getting the base back.
