April 10, 2010, Ron Paul: Barack Obama is Not a Socialist

It's awfully convenient for you to omit the rest of Paul's remarks about Obama, specifically that he was not a socialist but a corporatist (just as bad).

First: if a bunch of racists join a Tea Party protest, does that make the Tea Party racist?

No.

Similarly, a bunch of “truthers” joined the ranks of Rep. Paul supporters in the 2008 elections, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that Rep. Paul himself endorsed their beliefs regarding 9/11.

So unless you can provide direct, verifiable quotes from Rep. Paul in which he has said that U.S. government employees (or other agents acting on the behalf of the U.S. government) perpetrated the despicable acts of 9/11, you’ve got nothing.

Second: you can post Photoshopped images all day long, but at the end of the day, they are nothing more than personal propaganda pieces.

Gosh, I get back to discover there's been a party goin' on!

Let's just pour a cup o' punch here, shall we?

So you have no problem with what MK said at all?
Calling someone an “asswipe” for absolutely NO reason as Mk did in post 120 is perfectly okay with you?

Well it was ok with this guy a while back during the famed Bug Zapper thread:

“So you prefer Hillary, then?” -quidnunc
...”Up yours asswipe.” -Jim Robinson ...


You were saying, Dorksheare?

And he continued with such behavior AFTER the fact?
Then in post 168 pretty much stated that he will not desist from such behavior?
Sorry, that cannot be tolerated.


You're just a victim of premature exasperation there, Dork. You came into this thread looking for something to get your panties in a wad about, nothing more and nothing less.

If mk goes, so do I.
I interpret the profanity rules as directly calling the other person a profane name. I mean, y' know, going beyond "PaulBot", "Palinista", "Mitten" (or whatever) into the words you can't say on TV, directed at the other person.


There will always be some posters with extreme delicate sensitivities (you know - the ones who extend one little pinky when they lift their teacup, and blink alot), who will be offended by anything that is not absolutely within the letter of each and every rule, and they will scream, shriek and wail murder most foul, slam the abuse button until their thumbs come out the back side of their keyboards, and chew holes in the glass of their 13" monitor. They don't worry me, not at all.

But thanks for your kind words of support Maggie.

Furthermore, it shows your extremism and that you are a purist, and finally your quest for a perfect candidate...and you are trying to boil down Sarah to two endorsements, it's a small thing you are doing.

What it shows is that (to borrow J.D. Hayworth's campaign theme) Sarah Palin is not a "consistent conservative"

Regardless of her personal ties to McStain and his gal Carly, she could have at the least minimized her support of McStain, and refrained from endorsing the likes of Fiorina. Had she confined her support of Juan McAmnesty to a few kind words and perhaps a public appearance, J.D. Hayworth could well be enjoying a substantial lead. But thanks to Sarah Palin, Arizona is facing the possibility of returning a traitor to the Senate, and that traitor (if Fiorina prevails in California) will be further enabled by the presence of one of his cronies who will work hand-in-glove with McCain to screw America in general, and conservatives specifically.

Sarah Palin is on the record as saying she "shares John McCain's vision for America" and only someone who is out of touch with reality, or is busy licking Sarah's high heels would fail to understand that such a "vision" is NOT a conservative vision.

You know what, about three months ago folks around her still thought Sarah could walk on water. Now that she’s up to her eye-balls in mud, they’re having a real hard time convincing everyone she’s still on the top of the water.

Folks just aren’t buying it any longer. These idiotic RINO enablers finally had to go off to their own splinter group forum so nobody would challenge them, and they could claim they were real Conservatives, in silence. Why, because no real Conservatives were there.

What vested interest would you and I have for calling Sarah a RINO for backing John McCain? Is it good to back John McCain? No. Of course not, but if you say it’s not good, you’re a Palin hater. That just borders on mental incompetence IMO. The only other explanation is that folks were being paid or were so damned stupid they would act like this without payment. And if they’re paid or that damned stupid, then leaving was the best thing.

Conservative tenets are sound. If we won’t sell them who will? If we won’t back sound candidates, who will?

I am flabbergasted to watch people claim to be Conservative, then back a guy who rubs shoulders with Democrats most of the time. A good portion of Obama’s agenda is the McCain agenda.

You explain this to folks and they melt down. “Oh, don’t say that about our guy.” Or, “Oh, I know McCain is the worst Repbulican on record, but it’s not a bad think to back him to go back to Washington, D.C. for another six years. We can get rid of him then.” Ahhhhhh..., what the hell is the problem with getting rid of him now?

If Sarah thinks she can’t get elected without McCain, what does that tell you? It tells me she’s no better than he is.

I’m not in favor of him getting six years, and at this point I’m not in favor of her getting four.

RINOs flock together because their birds of a feather.
