- conza88, on 06/13/2008, -15/+49Ron Paul will do more for Truth, Freedom, Liberty, Prosperity & Peace than any other politician in modern history!
- inactive, on 06/13/2008, -10/+33The future of our way of life is in danger. Both of the Senators believe in stealing our liberty one piece at a time. Both have voted to fund the Iraq use of force, neither objected to it on Constitutional grounds both have voted to keep Iraq funding off budget and both have voted for deficit spending.
The inevitable result of either of these Senators winning will be economic collapse and a loss of stature in the world.
Both of the Senators have indicated that they believe in global warming even thouigh the only way the computer models can show global warming is by omitting all data from volcanic activity.
Both have vote to infringe on our right to be secure in our person property papers and effects and to keep and bear arms.
Already Ron Paul has changed the conversation. Nobody talked about the fact that the government is making the dollars we earn and save worth less every day.
Ron Paul is a beacon of liberty and we need to support him because he supports us and the American way of life. - InvisibleInk, on 06/13/2008, -10/+20This guy is great. There hasn't been anyone like him in American politics since the Founders themselves. When this movement is ultimately successful, he will be regarded as such.
- Hortnon, on 06/14/2008, -3/+12What has Paul actually done?
- inactive, on 06/13/2008, -3/+12Obama does worst than flip-floping, he changes his speech depending on who he's talking to, about any given subject.
His AIPAC speech was a disgrace. - nblsavage, on 06/14/2008, -6/+14Paul supporters, I wish to offer an apology. I've trolled, insulted, and buried you and I admit I was wrong for doing so. I do not totally agree with your views, but after seeing the TOTAL ignorance about the Constitution being spread in the various threads about the SCOTUS decision re: the Gitmo detainees, More awareness about The Constitution can't be a bad thing. Best of luck to you. You'll get no more bad-mouthing from me.
- rmtatum, on 06/13/2008, -2/+9Yeah, I think Kucinich has definitely been truthful. He is wrong, however, on supporting socialism.
- kemp34, on 06/13/2008, -6/+13Over 34,000 people signed up in two days.
If Ron Paul is the "loon on the bus" you are a dying chimp's dingleberry. - Conwaysb0718, on 06/13/2008, -8/+15Sucks to the two party system!
- Hortnon, on 06/14/2008, -2/+9I could submit a bunch of bills that get denied, that's no great feat. What has he accomplished, though?
Besides helping to kill the impeachment, of course. Never got your comment on that...
http://digg.com/politics/House_waves_off_impeachme ... - inactive, on 06/14/2008, -1/+7Does Ron Paul support impeaching Bush?
- inactive, on 06/14/2008, -2/+8I really don't get why Minarchian is still carrying the water for Ron Paul while distancing himself from every other neo-con and Democrat out there. Are you a paid Ron Paul troll, Minarchian?
- leebull, on 06/14/2008, -2/+8By what rules is the Republican National Committee preventing a nomination and a speech?
- inactive, on 06/14/2008, -2/+7The only legislation that Ron Paul has successfully introduced were earmarks designed to bring home the pork to his home district.
And why haven't you posted a reply to the question that I asked you in the thread that Hortnon posted? Have you been busy or just hiding? - inactive, on 06/14/2008, -2/+7Does Ron Paul remind anyone else of a Norman Rockwell doctor?
http://www.tfaoi.com/aa/7aa/7aa102.htm
He is after all a medical doctor. And he has been making an old fashioned house visit to the American People and has offered a treatment for the malady that afflicts America. - KMye, on 06/14/2008, -2/+6*pulls hair out* Why?? Why would anyone, Paultard or not, just digg down an honest neutral question like this, esp. without answering it? ***** retards...
- inactive, on 06/15/2008, -0/+4I honestly don't view impeachment as a partisan issue. There are plenty of Democrats that have been complicit in trampling on the Constitution. I've heard Paul speak very highly about Kucinich in the past. I am hoping that the two of them can whittle down the 35 Articles of Impeachment and come up with a bipartisan version that will have significant support in the House. Paul has built a powerful grass roots movement and the Republican Party can't afford to ignore him anymore.
A new impeachment resolution with a significant number of co-sponsors on both sides of the aisle would bring increased media attention and could snowball once the American People become more aware of the criminal acts committed by the Bush administration. - Lagger, on 06/13/2008, -11/+15Ron Paul 2012
- inactive, on 06/14/2008, -3/+7Ron Paul quit, cupcake. It's something called current events. Keep up.
- KMye, on 06/14/2008, -6/+10So, serious question, is this where he's funneling the last $5m from his campaign?
- Hortnon, on 06/14/2008, -4/+7How many people signed that stupid "Uwe Boll should stop making movies" petition?
http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi? ... - kemp34, on 06/13/2008, -5/+8The goal was 100,000 by September. To be 1/3 of the way in two days is pretty damn solid. Also, the zip code requires an American address.
- vault, on 06/14/2008, -8/+11Will do more? I think you meant 'would have done more.'
Though you'd still be wrong regardless. - roosevans, on 06/14/2008, -1/+3Remember, Ron Paul is trying to reform the Republican party. He is trying to bring revolution from within the GOP. Being pragmatic he can't openly endorse the idea of Bush impeachment. No Republican can or will. I am sure he secretly hopes the Dems get the numbers and the will to impeach Bush, a President that has done so much to undermine the Constitution.
- CoolHandLuke70, on 06/15/2008, -0/+2You say Ron Paul is ***** insane? For wanting to return to a free and productive country that answers to the U.S. Constitution? What is your logic and reasoning?
- inactive, on 06/15/2008, -0/+2Very cool.
I originally chose Hope as my last name in homage to Obama's "Audacity of Hope". But after watching Obama sell himself out to the Israel Lobby at the AIPAC convention, I wondered about the wisdom of my choice. Then I saw Paul's slogan "Hope for America" and I felt good again.
I don't agree with everything that Ron Paul stands for, but I do see him as someone who cares deeply about this country and who has never sold out to the lobbyists. - leebull, on 06/14/2008, -0/+2Maybe, just maybe.
In the mean time,THE REVOLUTION CONTINUES - CoolHandLuke70, on 06/14/2008, -1/+3To jcm, herkhimer, hortnon, onetimer, sgiffy:
Do you guys know of any other politician who has a 100% record of standing up in defense of the U.S. Constitution or, for that matter, a politician that does not flip flop/sell out? Do you think that perhaps that is why Ron Paul has a hard time getting legislation passed? He has no special interest groups lining his pockets like the others. He simply stands up for what he believes is right, and he is the ONLY one that I have seen that has the courage to do so! Please give examples of other members of congress that you know who do this! You guys attack Ron Paul like you are paid to do so yet you can only go after 'earmarks' and the tenuous at best 'racist tinged' newsletters when the head of the NAACP, a friend and acquaintance of Dr. Paul who underscored repeatedly that the racist claims were absolutely absurd. If I thought that he were racist, I would not support him. I am sure that goes for many many others. You ask what he has accomplished: It seems quite clear to me that what he has accomplished is to sound the alarm for how we have strayed and lost our way from the U.S. Consitution and have been moving towards vast corruption and fascism. His WHOLE platform is a plan on how to get back to a country and society that is productive and free and does not increasingly resemble a totalitarian regime/neo-feudalist society with the consistent reduction of the middle class and our freedoms on every front! In response, please give us Ron Paul fans the accomplishments of McClone or the Obama Kid OR even Spurious George before he became president! Would love to hear what those accomplishments are! And please do not feel that you guys have to be ***** trolls all the time, take some time off too! I find your credibility extremely lacking when you guys never back up your claims as well as lie and stretch the truth like a whore on the witness stand --- I have seen these lies, smears, and absurd insinuations from you guys many many times -- AND I would think that you guys have to be intelligent enough to know you are doing that which makes all the vitriol and lies even more repugnant!
The bottom line for me is that I support Ron Paul because he is the only politician that I have seen in my lifetime who has the courage to consistently face the corrupt pressure of a Congress that wants to move us away from a free, egalitarian society under a very well thought out, comprehensive U.S. Constitution to a governance that will tell us what to think and do. Obama, Clinton, and McSame cannot even come close to this by all accounts, McClone being the worst! - wrenchone, on 06/14/2008, -8/+10I swear this makes the upcoming section at least twice a day, and each time has almost the same comments in it. Don't you people have anything else better to be doing?
- inobla, on 06/15/2008, -2/+4Looks like some of the PaulBots are a little behind on their firmware updates.
- nblsavage, on 06/15/2008, -0/+2I don't disagree with you on those points. Note I said "I do not totally agree with your views" but you will admit that discussion about The Constitution is a good thing. A lot of people need some remedial education.
- Sumbunny, on 06/14/2008, -0/+2Yes, it will be used to continue spreading the message, and to help support other Ron Paul candidates for Congress.
- stienster, on 06/13/2008, -8/+9Check out Bob Barr on wiki for his full history. Baldwin is no go. He's a pastor who's held audience with Jeb Bush and other elites. I'm a Born-Again Christian, and not against him for being a pastor, but he's engrossed inside a tightly held cocoon of religiosity/legalism that Jesus fought strongly against. Baldwin also has no political background whatsoever, which probably means he can't stand against the pressures of the current political corruption regime and their string pullers. Barr on the other hand has held office and has made mistakes. He's also caught on and changed his views, stance, and political affiliation to prove it. I've heard Ron Paul considers him a good candidate and a good man. I haven't looked into that part yet.
- kolinkoolface2, on 06/15/2008, -0/+1are you kidding me? I know Ron Paul is one the of the most honest politicians (if not thee most) in DC but he is not Jesus Christ. Besides, half of these claims you made are not even that important. I think you need to get your priorities straight.
- Truzseeker, on 06/17/2008, -0/+1I understand that he formally announced withdrawing from the campaign. God help us all as to our future in this police state.
- Observant1, on 06/14/2008, -2/+3Ron did bring up some VERY important points with his campaign effort, but he's no angel either.
withdrawing from anything 9-11 truth when it was his largest support group was poor form.
being silent about the BUSHecutioner Governor in his home state.
being silent about Rudy Giuliani representing CINTRA building a NAFTA superhighway.
being silent about Governor Rick Perry land grabbing for that highway, in his home state.
being silent about privatized prisons, which all started in Texas, on his watch.
being silent about youth authority workers pimping out boys as sex slaves in his home state, (with Alberto Gonzales even going so far as saying "maybe those boys enjoyed it").
being silent about CPS taking children from their parents with the recent "polygamist" story.
and there's some other stuff he SHOULD have made a real stand about.
people talk about him as if he's evil for the earmarks to his home state like it was something, looking out for the fishermens jobs, the declining shrimp harvests, and looking to keep food on our tables, is hardly evil in comparison to some of the other crap mentioned above.
he let people down with this campaign by NOT going for broke to get his name out there more, as we hoped and expected him to. he let people down by dropping from this race. chances would have been better that more funds would have come in IF he had pushed harder, and smarter. this doesn't invalidate what his message is at its core, but it does bring up some questions about whether he's the kind of person to be THE leader or focal point for putting this nation right again.
the trolls will bash this because I am saying it, the blind faith followers will bash this because I am saying it, and it really doesn't matter to me if I get buried to hell for saying what I honestly think of the whole situation. he missed and ignored a lot of opportunities to make a stand, up and above the rest. how many others in this race have "suspended their campaign" ? I QUIT was the last thing his supporters wanted to hear and a "thank you" to his supporters might have been better replaced with apologies to them, for doing more for him, than he did for himself. - gypsi, on 06/14/2008, -1/+2not sure, but he's definitely been silent about kucinich's activities
- leebull, on 06/14/2008, -0/+1Con artist? Have you actually heard his message or are you just trying to do a hit and run? If so, YOU are the shameless one.
- Observant1, on 06/15/2008, -0/+1no, I'm not kidding, look at how much of the NWO crap started in Texas in the first place that RP hasnt said squat about. these elections are nothing more than grandstanding popularity contests for future fascist dictators. if he were a true champion of the people he would have made a hell of a lot more noise about incidents in his home state on the peoples behalf. silence about Giuliani's lawfirm representing CINTRA, silence about GWB loving inmate executions, when some real noise back then might have prevented this Bush/Clinton dynasty is unimportant?
silence about corporate welfare grants to companies who move production overseas for cheap labor and no EPA standards leaving US unemployed (environmental and economic treason!), these are real issues, real priorities. silence about impeachment, silence about Cheneys no-bid contracts to Halliburton/KBR building concentration camps on US soil and moving their HQ to Dubai, silence about Cheney moving all his assets out of US currency 2 years before the implosion of the dollar. dont tell me "silence is golden". wake up. - satanatnmtedu, on 06/15/2008, -1/+2Every person that thinks Paul is for a strong and exact Constitution is wrong. Paul has stated that there is no separation of church and state in the Constitution - last time I checked there is. Paul is against a woman's right to choose - which is one of the major fundamental rights of liberty. Paul thinks the US is a Christian Nation, founded on Christian principles. He is wrong. Yet, people still support him.
- Sumbunny, on 06/14/2008, -0/+1Yes. That's why I use this painting in my profile:
http://digg.com/users/Sumbunny/gallery/5491105 - inactive, on 06/14/2008, -1/+2paul's real problem is that he is bat ***** insane
- inactive, on 06/16/2008, -0/+1Actually it's less than that, you can bet they have spammed this with phony names
- Hortnon, on 06/15/2008, -1/+1Your argument lacks logic and reasoning. What's that called, a 'loaded question'? Waste of everyone's time, typical Paulbot.
- flavioribeiro, on 06/14/2008, -1/+1Unfortunately Bob Barr made way too many mistakes for his own good.
I would've loved to see Christine Smith or Mary Ruwart as the LP nominee. - sgiffy, on 06/13/2008, -8/+8Anyone can set a goal. If they break 30 million we can start talking about it being anything more than his campaign. That is a collection of disaffected and motivated libertarians with decent incomes and plenty of spare time who are good at making up for their small numbers with high volume.
