    What point is Colbert trying to prove here? That corporate funded speech should be prohibited?

    I think he'll be disappointed at the collective shrug. That commercial is dumb, but it shouldn't be censored.

    By his own logic the Colbert Report could be censored because it's funded by Viacom and therefore "corporate speech".

    Serves Huntsman right for saying he believes in Evolution. That's no way to win the GOP primary.

    This debate is pathetic, Paul says we shouldn't bomb other countries if we wouldn't like it here. His response is boos, why is South Carolina as a whole, mentally challenged?

    Moment of the debate:

    Ron Paul: I propose a golden rule of foreign policy; don't do unto others what you wouldn't want done unto us.

    Crowd: Booooooo hisssssssss

    Mitt Romney just said that anyone who commits treason should be able to be held without trial and that they don't deserve due process.

    Shame on you Romney. I'd rather Obama get reelected than for the GOP to nominate another "conservative" who doesn't give a freakin flip about the Constitution except when they want to use it to hurt gays and minorities.

    Absolutely pathetic, we may be embarrassed for living in the political climate of Texas sometimes, but thank God we're not South Carolina.

    American Exceptionalism is a central tenet of most of the Republican Party. One of Newt Gingrich attacks on Obama is that he doesn't believe in that.

    sometimes I think, if we're really going to jump the shark, as a nation, we need to go out with gaffs so bad it will be slapstick comedy. Perry would make Bush look like Robespierre.
