Ron Paul is the only Republican worth a damn. Otherwise, just a pack of greedy, lying thieves. "Party of limited government", my butt.

There has been a great deal of talk in Washington about scandals lately, but few seem to understand that enormous federal budgets provide the mother's milk for every backroom deal, questionable earmark, and sleazy lobbying trick.





Should be repeated often!

Let me see if I can figure out the argument against Ron Pauls position.......He voted against the war, he used to be a Libertarian, he is a nutjob, his mama wears army boots. It was 9-11, GW had to spend like a drunken sailor to save our nation. The war on terror is the main culprit.

OK, there is no reasonable argument against his words, that is why there may be many people reading this, but will be very few replies. It hurts to think and then realize, that the Republican party hosed us, then said "call ya sometime".

The record on domestic spending by the Bush Administration and the Republican Congress leaves a great deal to be desired.

The only way I would cast another vote for a major party candidate is if Ron Paul ran for president.

>It once took 100 years to double the federal budget.

According to constitutional scholar P.A. Madison, this isn't correct:

1791 $4,200,000
1850 $41,000,000
1869 $372,000,000

Neither political party wants to address the fundamental yet unspoken issues inherent in any budget proposal: What is the proper role for government in our society?

We citizens better start addressing this in a hurry. And I mean citizens, not corporations who seem to be in control of federal and state governments these days.

Who was it that said, "Engage the world in commerce, but make no political alliances."? Sounds good to me.

Our GOP misrepresentatives have nothing to worry about, being in the majority. I'll have to go with a Republican president, and a demonrat congress next time. I'm totally sick of this waste clogging up the DC toilet.

What is the proper role for government in our society?

The answer is clear for this administration.

"I believe that's the role of the federal government, to help people"
