I guess Tom Tancredo's running for President...

...because he's flip-flopping and weaseling like a real contender.

Tancredo two years ago:

TANCREDO: ...if this happens in the United States and we determine that it is the result of extremist, fundamentalist, Muslims, um, you know, you could, you could take out their holy sites.

HOST: You're talking about bombing Mecca?

TANCREDO: Yeah.

Tancredo today:

GUEST: Congressman Tancredo is the same man who a few years ago said that we should consider taking out Mecca in order to send a message to the terrorists.

TANCREDO: Whoa, that is absolutely...

GUEST: This gentleman is not the man to be...

TANCREDO: You have no respect to say a thing like that.

GUEST: ...to preserve all human life.

TANCREDO: That is absolutely untrue that I said we should take out Mecca in order to send a message.

As Zappatero points out, "I guess it depends on what the meaning of "message' is."
