Washington State Governor's Race tied at 49% - Libertarian candidate taking 2% (!%%!!#^)
There you go again, mistaking me for a "dumbass" member of your family. You might want to have that checked out. Given that and your losertarian leanings, your conditions might still be treatable.
These votes typically come in with vast majorities. Paul's position is a protest statement.
I don't consider voting not to support our troops a protest.
Well you know, the various Congressbeings don't get to each propose a spending bill of their own, and then they average it all out. If they did, then we could see exactly what Ron Paul wanted. Rather a bill gets put up and it's a yes or no vote. If Paul really thinks the spending bill is too much, how else can he express that sentiment?
Not by spitting on the troops who are defending this nation.
How has Paul "spat" on them?
I guess bin Laden must be an LP'er.
What LP'er ever advocated beheading women who do not dress from head to toe in veils?
Hmmmmm? Siding with Baghdad Jim McDermott on every vote opposing the war and on providing the troops with the necessary material to stay alive?
A bill "opposing the war" has never gone before either house of Congress, because it has never gotten out of committee.
A "no" vote is opposition...at least in the real world.
It is symbolic only. Many congressional votes are symbolic.
Yes, he only SYMBOLICLY spit on our troops.
All the "no" means is that he doesn't agree with the bill as written.
Of course he could take his case directly to the troops. I'm sure they would only symbolicly express their appreciation.
The bill stated a specific dollar amount. It did not write a blank check. A blank check bill would be unconstitutional.
Time to start writing e-mails.
You are changing the subject.
It's time St. Paul be taught a lesson...LP style. Don't worry, it only hurts a little while...isn't that what you people say?
If you can compete with him. But you are so full of pork you can't.
