South Carolina Fox News GOP debate **live commentary thread**

[Politico]

I know I am going to be in trouble for this one....But I think Santorum should start basing his policies off American law, not Vatican law. He is basing everything off the "family".

Rick Mussolini is never going to come close to influencing America law again, so don't sweat it.

LOL Asking for a job instead of foodstamps is INSULTING to African Americans. Sure Juan

...what American law is Santorum's view contradicting?

Please, children and supporters of the childish candidate: don't post here anymore.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I doubt MLK would be on Paul's side after reading those letters.

He sure as hell wouldnt be on anyone elses side....I think ALL of them should quit invoking his name; MLK would be a HUGE Obama backer. And I wouldnt blame him, seeing his views and life right up to his killing.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Santorum is off-track here... he's fine with telling girls to not have sex and make sure to get married.... but doesn't want Government telling them what the 'right' thing is...

He really does sicken me... the Obama policy doesn't stop them talking about it... it stops them ONLY preaching abstinence.


Wow... Paul is speaking for MLK...

Supporters of the uber rich white candidate acting racist. Shocking!

Phil; Im not the most loved person here, but get off your high horse, neither are you.

"I've always opposed gay marriage." - Mitt Romney

Supporting gay rights does not equal supporting gay marriage. Just ask Ron Paul.

That's pretty much what the whole gay rights movement is about.

Certainly an improvement over the gay rights movement of the '70s, which was basically about promiscious sex with strangers in bathhouses.

It was also about being able to be sitting in a bar without the police coming in and beating you up...

And spreading lots of nasty diseases that other people can pay for with regards to treatment.

Yeah, I'm sure they were all doing it deliberately.

Gaetan Dugas did a good job of it. He probably killed more people than the most prolific serial killers in history.

So because one guy did it, they all did it and that's the face of their movement.  ...Right.

I know what it was all about. It was about treating sex like fast food. Go read "And the Band Played On," a book about the era written by a gay journalist.

I still don't see how this relates to asking for the same marriage rights as straight people.

[Oswald Acted Alone, You Kook]

So elities don't like making money? Total lie. Newtie deserves these boos.

[Politico]

LOL! Newt doubles-down on the pro-child labor rant

[redcommander]

Gingrich just STFU already.

[RI]

Crowd about to lynch Juan Williams.

[/racial reference]

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I usually like Juan, but Newt put him in his place. Newts still wrong, ofcourse

[RI]

Gingrich gets standing ovation.

[Smash255]

Insisting that African Americans don't want jobs, but would rather have Food Stamps IS Insulting and Racist.

[TheDeadFlagBlues]

Here I am yelling at the tv again. Really, saying that "we need to teach the poor how to work"?

[Mehmentum]

The crowd LOVED Newt's answer.

[Oswald Acted Alone, You Kook]

How can an 11-year-old own a donut shop anyway?

Uh...what? What the hell does being loved here have to do with anything? And, dude, I'm fully aware I'm not "loved" here so don't tell me to "get off my high horse" on that subject. But, again, your comment doesn't even make sense. Nothing in my comment had to do with being popular here.

Little too much ganja at your Paul debate watch party, I guess...

[RI]

Fox panelists talking only about Paul? wtf.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

LOL! Newt doubles-down on the pro-child labor rant

Wow... that crowd doesn't really like being challenged do they?

He's increasing in the 'scum' factor... wow, he's absolutely and utterly disgusting.  

[GLPman]

Whether or not you agree with Newt, his message is definitely resonating with South Carolina voters, which is what matters at this point.

So this is what Nuremberg was like >>Godwin's Law but only slight hyperbole.  Christ, this is embarrassing.
