listen alright
you like Paul
I do not
You think he’s alright
I do not
I think with the things he says and yes I have given you a couple of points why I think he’s a nut.
I have met and talked to some of his supporters and while some are OK many I have met are nuts
that is how it is.
Please read the article. I don't care if you like Ron Paul, really, that was not my point.
If you don't want to argue like a liberal, don't conflate the actions of a few supporters with a candidate/personality. Very simple. Let the person stand or fall on their own merits.
If you notice, there is a tendency for liberals to take one group and then lump them in with some unsavory types to use the association to make all who are in their new category as unpalatable as the worst of the group.
Gunowners, Christians, and Conservatives in general have long felt this as we have been rhetorically lumped in as part of the 'vast right winged conspiracy' with anti-semites, neo-nazis, and paranoids of every stripe--even though 'paranoid' has become defined not by what one is afraid of, but only by the progress the Left has failed to make on their agendae.
If, in the 1970s you went around saying in thirty-odd years, the government will sieze control of banking institutions, of GM, of Chrysler, would establish whole policy-making bureaucracies under a series of people called 'czars' who would not be vetted by Congress nor elected, but only appointees who would make regulations with the force of law, effectively bypassing Congress as the Legislative body, all at the whim and behest of the President alone, people would have called you a "kook", a "nutcase", a "paranoid", but here we are.
So look at what people are saying before being so quick to peg them as out of bounds, because sometimes, even people we disagree with on balance will get it right.
Happy New Year, FRiend.
