    Who is Duncan Hunter? Fred Thompson came in tied with him on a 53.

    I am against ethanol although I know that Indiana farmers are dreaming of great wealth in the form of a tax subsisdy for corn in order to make an overly-priced product competitive. It is doubtful that ethanol could ever be made to be competitive if it weren't for taxpayer monies. Subsidizing energy comsuption guarantees that the law of supply and demand will never be able to curb excessive demand.

    As for the line-item veto, I think that it is necessary in order to bust up Congressional spending bills. This spree since Nine Eleven needs to come to an end.

    I am happy with Fred Thompson, aka Mr. Excitement.

    Me, too. I just went to look up who Duncan Hunter is. He is a Congressman from San Diego County, California. He seems to be a good guy. He must be very intelligent because he agrees with Fred Thompson and me. :laugh:

    This is off the subject, but I heard today that J. Vernon McGee used to say that California was the only state mentioned in the Bible:

    Song of Solomon 6:11 I went down into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished, and the pomegranates budded.

    Gilmore 25

    Giuliani 19

    Romney 18

    My worse pick; Kucinich 1

    What is a "high" score? 100? I see some scored 60 as a high while my top score was only 41. I think it must have alot to do with the level of importance that is picked.
