WASHINGTON (CNN) — Colorado Rep. Tom Tancredo’s campaign stood by his assertion that bombing holy Muslim sites would serve as a good “deterrent” to prevent Islamic fundamentalists from attacking the United States, his spokeswoman said Friday.

“This shows that we mean business,” said Bay Buchanan, a senior Tancredo adviser. “There’s no more effective deterrent than that. But he is open-minded and willing to embrace other options. This is just a means to deter them from attacking us.”

On Tuesday, Tancredo warned a group of Iowans that another terrorist attack would “cause a worldwide economic collapse.” IowaPolitics.com recorded his comments.

“If it is up to me, we are going to explain that an attack on this homeland of that nature would be followed by an attack on the holy sites in Mecca and Medina,” Tancredo said. “That is the only thing I can think of that might deter somebody from doing what they would otherwise do. If I am wrong, fine, tell me, and I would be happy to do something else. But you had better find a deterrent, or you will find an attack.”

Tom Casey, a deputy spokesman for the State Department, told CNN’s Elise Labott that the congressman’s comments were “reprehensible” and “absolutely crazy.” Tancredo was widely criticized in 2005 for making a similar suggestion.

You never know what could happen. I hope to hell he does get it, but it will probably be Romney. I don't think he would get the Vice President slot eventhough that would be good to.

That makes Perfect sense, be prepared to hit the places they value most and they will think twice about it.

Why do you say that?

Just wondering, seems like 'advertising' to me. Maybe there should be a special place just for political sites campaigning?

Not advertising, many people here support Tancredo so I was just showing them the store is finally up and the bumperstickers and T-shirt's have a motto most all of us support. Also I stated that I could get people the bumperstickers for them for free.

I understand, question is do you really want to read all the political sites and sales for all the other candidates, wherever one thinks there is an opening for slipping one in or starting another thread?

[nevadamedic]

Why do you say that?

There are several things that he has done that has been shady or inconsistant. If you want let me know and I would be happy to post them all on here. If you want me to let me know, just give me a few minutes, it will take a while to post everything.

Why not put things like that in 'announcements' or 'lounge' or somewhere we can find any we are interested in?

This guys is an idiot if he thinks bombing Mecca and Medina would be a good idea after another terrorist attack. Saudi Arabia would cut off all of their oil supplies to us, and that would bring about economic collapse. Unless of course he is willing to invade and occupy the oil fields.

I completely, whole heartedly, 100%, agree with this. The more I read about ole' Tancredo, the better I like him. Us playing this fucking game of patty cake with these cold blooded killer islamist jihadists is bullshit. I'm all for a man that takes the gloves off and say's, "fuck with us, NOTHING is untouchable."

Exactly. Hit them where it hurts. Even the threat of it will deter them, if nothing else countries like Saudi Arabia will fear attack and activly pursue terrorists.

Tancredo doesn't have a chance in hell of getting nominated or a vp spot. He sure as hell won't get a cabinet position since this one is going to be a Demo landslide.

Mark my words, putting money into this campaign is like flushing it down the shitter.

I would agree with that for the most part. I think a Repub can win it, but Tancredo would lose in a landslide to Hitlery or Rock Star Hussien Obama. Allthough I feel Duncan is the best conservative so far, he also isn't a recognizable name that will win.

True conservatism is dead in this country. The most we can do is pick the lesser of the two Globalist/Socialist Pigs in the final vote.

That's not true. They polled the Democrats and 50% said they would not vote for Hillary under ANY circumstances and there was simular numbers for Obama.

But we must accept that we the citizenry do not pick the candidated, the media do and for the most part the media wants to see a Rudy/Hillary showdown and Rudy will get demolished in that matchup.

Rudy is a liberal and I do not want to see libs get ahold of the Repub party. I'd rather flush the election than to see that happen.

If you are right in the first place, than Rudy hasn't a chance. It's obvious the media is picking a 'non-Republican'. So your second paragraph holds, Rudy may get the nod, but you will get a Dem.

"We Republicans" holds little sway with me. You and I are not close in most important ways that I can see. The one area we come together is race based politics.

[theHawk]

That's not true. They polled the Democrats and 50% said they would not vote for Hillary under ANY circumstances and there was simular numbers for Obama.

Here's how the final race will go down. The media will portray the race as Her Highness Hillary vs. A-Bush-Clone that will continue business as usual. The liberals will go into an all out frenzy attacking the Republican and it will quickly become more important to prevent "another Bush" from taking office. As for that 50% poll, since when have liberals ever stood by anything that they say?

The American people are so pissed off at the Democrats right now I don't think they stand a chance. Look at the Democrat's in the House's approval rating right now, 3%, that is the lowest it has ever been. THey have really fucked themselves and the people are beinginning to see what liars they are.

Are you fucking shitting me? First off produce this 3% crap from a reputeable source and secondly..........you think Bush ain't hated right now by most everybody in America?

The vote in '08 will be solidy anti-Bush and anti-Repub, it will be a landslide for Demos.

I, respectfully, think both of you are full of shit. Time will tell. Not us here passing our "opinions" off as fact.

Now "MY" opinion. The more the ads start running on TV, the more ground Tancredo will gain. Illegal aliens are THE most hot topic, and NO ONE is closer to what the PEOPLE want to happen for his agenda than TANCREDO. To ignore that and count Tancredo out isn't being logical. Hell, the liberal media running the last debate didn't ask ONE QUESTION about illegal aliens. If you think that went unnoticed by EVERY CONSERVATIVE IN THE COUNTRY, you're crazy. I know why you say what you say though OCA, because you're all for giving up and handing the illegals the key to the country. You though Hawk, I don't understand why you agree Tancredo has no chance. Romney is taking big hits for being a Mormon. Giuliani is taking big hits for his stance on abortion. "I SAY" neither on of THEM have a chance in hell, ANY THEY'RE THE FRONT RUNNERS!

I tell ya what, both of you, "I'LL BET EITHER ONE OF YOU, NEITHER ROMENY OF GUILIANI WILL BE THE NOMINATION." And with those two out, that puts ole' Tancredo right up there at the top.

But just like you two, I'm hoping in one hand and shitting in the other.

THE LIBERAL ESTABLISHMENT MEDIA IS ALIVE AND WELL!

Dear Tom,

Yesterday morning Congressman Tancredo was in another presidential debate, this one out here in Iowa. It was broadcast on ABC and moderated by George Stephanopoulos.

Amazingly, in a ninety minute national debate there was not so much as one question about illegal immigration! Not one! Yet in every town hall meeting across the country the issue of illegal immigration dominates the discussion. But the big guys at ABC don’t think it’s worth so much as a mention?

Can the Washington media and political elite get any more out of touch with the American people? Or is it their agenda to simply ignore the growing movement in this country to stop the sell-out of our nation, in hopes that it will go away.

In spite of limited camera time during the debate, some of which the Congressman had to verbally demand, the Congressman had an excellent debate. He was strong, focused, passionate, and willing to speak with conviction about his beliefs. In the present political climate that is a true rarity. And yesterday was no different.

The media proclaimed “top tier candidates” were dancing about the stage like girls with little to say. They couldn’t give a yes or no to a simple question about whether they supported the Fair Tax.

And George Stephanopoulos made certain none of them had to explain their pro-amnesty, path to citizenship policies. So much for the media’s role of keeping the candidates honest.

But what else is new. We have long known that the mainstream media is biased and we can’t let their little games stop us. The Congressman left the debate and traveled to two town hall meetings yesterday and has another dozen this week. He is talking to everyone in Iowa who will listen about the threat illegal immigration presents to this nation and they are listening.

I have joined him on the campaign trail this week to make absolutely certain that those who agree with Tom’s message understand the importance of the upcoming Straw Poll. I explain that if they agree our nation is at risk they can help by going to the Straw Poll and voting for Tom. The media cannot ignore a strong showing by the one guy who really is against amnesty!

Friends, I want to report that our candidate is fantastic—he speaks to large groups of activists and small gatherings of farmers. Anyone who is willing to listen is his audience. He speaks from his heart with real conviction about the threat this nation faces because those in Washington refuse to do their job—because they are gutless, unwilling to take on their corporate buddies to protect and secure this nation. And so they must be defeated before they sell our nation out any further.

I know we have asked and asked for your help—but I must ask again. We are a Team and it is as a Team that we have gotten as far as we have—Tom and I know we couldn’t have done anything without your support, your help, and your prayers.

So I ask again. If you are able, would you send a contribution this critical week? Your gift today could really have an enormous impact on our showing this Saturday!

We have attendees signed up, and buses ready to roll to Ames on Saturday morning. But every dollar we can raise through gifts from supporters like you today will help us bring those extra attendees we need to make a huge impact for our cause.

Please help me send a message to the liberal media and the political insiders this Saturday……that “we the people” demand border security, full enforcement of our laws against illegal immigration, and no amnesty for illegal aliens. Your contribution today will have a dramatic impact Saturday!

Bay Buchanan

Well it is all over - according to the unbiased and objective reporter Chris Matthews


Chris Matthews Says Hillary's No 'Lefty,' Reports Dems Will 'Win Easily' in '08
By Tim Graham | August 7, 2007 - 23:06 ET
There’s some funny items sitting around on the transcript shelf here. On Monday’s Today, Matt Lauer and Chris Matthews briefly discussed the hard-left Yearly Kos convention, and Matthews insisted that the junior Senator who adopted New York didn’t really belong to the bloggers: "Hillary’s not one of them. Hillary’s not a lefty in this campaign and she’s pro-corporation."

Sunday’s Chris Matthews Show began with Matthews wondering "Is there anything that’ll stop the Democrats?" He said no: "We put it to the Matthews Meter, 12 of our regular panelists. ‘Is the ‘08 election the Democrats’ to lose?’ It’s a wipe out. Rarely do we see this perfection. Twelve to zip. Everyone says yes, it’s the Democrats’ to lose. In other words they’re probably gonna win easily."

During the Yearly Kos chat, Matt Lauer couldn't even apply those words to the event. He stayed vague:

Lauer: "What, what about this other idea? They're, they're out there in Chicago, the Democrats, they're meeting with bloggers, okay?"

Matthews: "Right, well."

Lauer: "You are, you are a well-seasoned political warhorse, Chris."

Matthews: "Thank you."

Lauer: "At what point in your career did you think that bloggers would carry this much clout in a presidential election?"

Matthews: "Well I'm not sure they will, in the end, but clearly they are part of the base, they make a lot of noise and anyone who's in politics has to put up with them. In fact, on the Democratic side, they're incredibly powerful because they just keep talking. They do 24-7, they never stop. And they set a very high standard, on the left, to be anti-corporate, anti-war, the whole shebang. And Hillary's not one of them. Hillary is not a lefty in this campaign and she's pro-corporation. She's pro-interest group. And she's somewhere in the middle on the war and they're not with her. And they're not gonna be with her until she wins the nomination. If she wins it, they'll be with her."


Sunday's Chris Matthews Show began with Matthews announcing: "How can the Democrats lose? Americans don’t like George Bush, they hate the war, they see the country going in the wrong direction and they want change. Is there anything that’ll stop the Democrats?"

Later, Matthews explained: "We put it to the Matthews Meter, 12 of our regular panelists. ‘Is the ‘08 election the Democrats’ to lose?’ It’s a wipe-out. Rarely do we see this perfection. Twelve to zip. Everyone says yes, it’s the Democrats’ to lose. In other words they’re probably gonna win easily."

Mark those words, and we'll see if they pan out for Matthews.

Walking A Hard Line On Campaign Trail in Iowa
Can Anti-Immigration Fervor Keep Tancredo in the Race?

By Sridhar Pappu
Washington Post Staff Writer
Saturday, August 11, 2007; Page C01

DES MOINES -- From a hill in a park an hour and a half away from Des Moines, one can see buffalo grazing on a field below. The morning sky has darkened with rain clouds and a light wind brushes nearby corn. This is summer in the Midwest, a reminder, somehow, of what our country is, and of who we think we are.

Ron Duncan, a 65-year-old retired truck driver, and his wife, Connie, step out of their RV on Wednesday. They pass for an advance team for the presidential campaign of five-term Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Colo.). For a couple of weeks, they've set up signs and banners and made sure there are enough stickers for those who show up to hear the man whose hard line against illegal immigration and its runoff issues has made him a catalyst for many here in the heart of the heart of the country.

"A year ago I saw all these people marching with foreign flags in the immigration protests and decided to get off my recliner," Ron explains as he puts up a banner at the front of the driveway of the education center in Swan Lake State Park. "I asked what happened to the culture I grew up in. When I heard this man, I decided this was a man I could follow."

Connie wears an ankle-length denim skirt and, like her husband, a T-shirt that reads: "I'm a Member of Tom's Army Against Amnesty!" She shares Ron's devotion not only to Tancredo, but to halting a Latin American invasion. It's an assault, they say, not only against native blue-collar workers unwilling to take lower wages, but on the idea of the United States itself.

"He really has the concerns of America at heart," Connie says of Tancredo. "He's concerned about the culture of America itself. What's happening to the bedrock of American culture."

In another time, the Duncans might be just another couple working for a candidate as a way of passing the time before the Hawkeyes and Cyclones begin their football seasons in Iowa City and Ames. But during a summer when an immigration bill supported by the Democratic leadership and a Republican president died after nationwide protest, their man's second-tier candidacy gained attention. The question regarding Tancredo is simple: Is one issue able to push a campaign to new heights? Will it serve him well in today's Ames straw poll? And should Rudy or Mitt or Fred or John be worried?

From a distance it's easy to say no. Tancredo has little money and a young staff largely without political experience. Often during the televised debates, he's pushed off to the side. One couldn't blame Tancredo if he decided to play Tetris on his cellphone while waiting for the moderator's question.

But it's here, on the ground, that the 61-year-old former civics teacher finds people willing to not only listen but enlist in his cause. Speaking to largely older crowds in town halls, he mostly ignores Iraq and Darfur and universal health care. Where he reaches them is in his pledge to drive the nation's 12 million to 20 million illegal immigrants back to their native homes. He speaks against bilingual education, calling English the glue that "holds the country together."

In his stops -- attended by anywhere from 20 to 100 people -- he reads a letter from a woman unable to find crew socks in a California Wal-Mart until she finds a black worker, who, unlike her co-workers, knows the language. He talks about crime and the influx of drugs, and of a nation whose sovereignty has been compromised. He shakes his head at a bilingual edition of an Iowa paper and proudly reads the beginning of a newspaper story about an illegal immigrant in Colorado having to return to Mexico because of stepped-up requirements for authentic documentation.

Then comes Bay. Yes, Bay Buchanan -- the onetime treasurer of the United States under Ronald Reagan who managed her brother Pat's three bids for the presidency. Yes, that Bay -- the woman who cuts a swath the size of a small Latin American country in any room she enters with the sleek appearance of a debutante and the loud, impassioned voice of a South Side Chicago ward boss.

As the woman who convinced Tancredo to run, Buchanan -- who quit her gig on CNN to do this -- not only serves as his campaign chairwoman but almost as his co-candidate. Following each Tancredo speech, she will address the crowd, urging, pleading, begging for people to attend the Ames straw poll while lashing out against the established candidates. At one event, her book "The Extreme Makeover of Hillary (Rodham) Clinton" was set out next to Tancredo's "In Mortal Danger: The Battle for America's Border and Security." Both were given away in exchange for a donation.

" 'Partners' is the word I would use," Buchanan says of her campaign role. "We work very well together."
