Ron Paul Has Better Chance This Time Around
Brian Koenig ^ | 4/27/11 | Brian Koenig

Posted on 04/27/2011 5:34:00 AM PDT by Freemarkets101

In an effort to tap the tea party voter base, Ron Paul announced Tuesday that he will be forming a presidential exploratory committee, offering up a second chance at the Republican presidential bid.

Congressman Paul formed a sort of "cult" following during the 2008 election, raising more than $35 million but falling short of wooing any caucasus or primaries.

But Paul claims the country has changed since 2008, with "literally millions of more people now concerned about things I talked about four years ago." This may be true, and so far Paul's views on high government spending and the Federal Reserve's irresponsible rate changes are, arguably, more critical than any other Republican candidate.

Maybe things will be different for Paul this time around. After all, his ideology follows the tea party initiative to a T, and back in 2008, this grassroots movement had yet to sprout.

What, you joined FReeREpublic today just to denigrate me? HA! I won’t even say welcome. Take your 77 year old wimp of a Truther and shove it, Paulbot. Your time around here will be short. But I’m betting on you being a truther retread.

Answer this: DID Ron Paul appear on Alex Jones ‘show’ or not?

RP...as much as I like him...is the political equivalent at the Presidential level, of a fart in the wind....

Whoa. This was an IBTZ that was short lived. sevika apparently is no more. I did a user search and came up with nothing, nada, zip. Kittens didn’t even have time to play...

Yeah, I must have. Never had a chance to say bye bye, either. Of course, I probably wouldn't have anyway...

K5kor posted last night praising Obama on his getting osama.
He sounded extremely trollish in his caracaturish posting style and then posted a thread saying to "bomb pakistan now!"
Thread got pulled after 8 replies.

I just checked its posts.

Apparently, there's an Obazombie among us.

It is thanking and prasing Bambi for bin Laden's demise.

No praise for Bush or Petraeus, but lots for Obie.

I dunno about you, but these folks that claim to have gotten divine inspiration from having mind-melded with Ron Paul’s pecker give me the creeps.

4 words for Emperor Zero:

I don’t believe anything that comes out of his mouth.

Yep, I just found some of his tripe myself. Pinged you on my response to him on a different thread. A troll for sure, and a little runt to boot the way he cusses. We don't need his type here.

You have to go to Aljazzer to hear Bush and Petraus mentioned....go figure! They reported Bushes statements and various other venues about Bush which were favorable .
