Ron Paul supporters are a very passionate bunch. They're all in for their guy. A large majority of them are 9/11 Truthers who believe the United States government is responsible for 9/11. When you point out to them that there are a lot of Muslims and communists who share that view, they dismiss it. When anti-Semitic musings were revealed to have been published in his newsletters, his supporters dismissed it. When Eric Dondero, formerly a very close aid to Ron Paul, wrote that the Republican presidential candidate is "most certainly Anti-Israel, and Anti-Israeli in general," his supporters dismissed it. When it was discovered that Ron Paul quoted Robert Pape on his website as someone whose foreign policy views he respects, his supporters dismissed the fact that Pape has close ties to the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR). When Ron Paul says it's our fault that the Muslim world hates us, his supporters nod...

Can't leave out Al.
I'd post a pic of Paul if he was there, but he wasn't and his supporters should quit lying, it demeans their candidate.
Ron Paul has ALWAYS been a sacrificial annode to dirvert conservative/libertarian votes away from republicans.
To: rideharddiefast
Them: Oh please... So when a bill was passed in congress that allocated money for his district he was not suppose to use it????
You: Give it a rest. I can promise you that your candidate has 10 times more pork barrel spending then Paul. So its laughable for you to even point this out.
Here is my post to you:
Well then tell us who rideharddiefast's candiate is and then prove your lie Paultard.
Why don't you supply the proof to back up your post# 61 or STFU?
Exactly! LOL!
So whatever happened to the days of using the CIA to go in take out the facilities or leaders?
There are plenty of dead Iranian scientists, but the program continues.
Ron Paul served and I thank him for it. To call him a Vietnam Vet is a lie. Stop drinking the koolaid.
They love to talk tough and send families off to wars they would never fight when push comes to shove.
I know plenty of children of people called "chickenhawks" by your kind, who serve in the military. And I appreciate your desire to turn America into a fascists state out of a Heinlein novel.
Fascists???
Fascists like attacking other countries in preemptive war.
Fascists like the government to pick the winners and losers in society.
Fascists are full of laws and regulations.
ALL the positions above Ron Paul is against.
And a libertarian would be against the argument that only veterans can support certain positions or have a voice on certain positions. A libertarian would call it fascist, if they didn’t allow isolationism to trump their values.
That’s right Libertarians would be against the argument that ONLY those who served can have freedom to certain political positions. Don’t think the Founding Fathers wanted it that way too.
Your second part is absolute rubbish! Libertarians are about freedom of political belief as you even confirmed. They also believe in the defending ourselves when attacked.
However, Libertarians do not believe in launching wars. If there is a National Security threat, then that is why we have the CIA, NSA, DIA, etc... to handle it. Sending troops is a different animal. The Founding Fathers understood this concept well and that is why they did not believe in being the policeman of the world.
Holy carp. I can’t believe what I’m reading here.
Sprite has gone hog wild, that’s all I can say!
I can’t remember the other zot team members. Sprite here needed a good zotting days ago. He’s gone now and some of us who “engaged” with him would greatly appreciate some graphics.
I know - I checked, such a pleasant sight to see that purpley-blue screen! I was hoping some of the zot list might gratify a few of us with some graphics!
That Paul eyebrow is sickening!!! yech!!
I wonder what got him the ZOT.
