Care to identify the other "make-believe President"?

We currently have man in office who has been pretending to be conservative.

Bubba Clinton's primary skill was acting. It was the root of his popularity.

Bush I was a lousy actor and it cost him dearly.

Unfortunately, skill as dramatist is one of the most important assets a President can have in the Tee Vee age.

Yes, and of course, everything that was true in Roman times is still true today. Mankind has not advanced or learned anything in the last few thousand years.

No, it has not.

This is evidenced by the fact Ron Paul apparently didn't even learn from recent history, apparently thinking the Neville Chamberlain appeasement/Woodrow Wilson isolationist approach were effective diplomatic methods that just need his particular genius in order to work.

The neo-cons are the modern heirs of Woodrow Wilson's globo-socialist democratic utopianism.

“Woodrow Wilson isolationist”

You may view Ron Paul as a “certifiable loon”, but he certainly isn’t as ignorant as you are concerning Woodrow Wilson.

That's why I'm proud we'll soon have a REAL candidate to consider. (FDT)

Given the Founders designed the US to be a fusion of the best of Roman and British systems, I would suggest the Roman conception of actors be now reserved for career lobbyists.

Its kind of funny . .. on the way home from work last night I saw a small poster or something or another hanging from an overpass that said “Who is Ron Paul?” There were two of the signs and then I vaguely remembered seeing something similar to it a few days earlier on another highway near town. How quaint.

I saw the same type of thing the other day. It was done on poster board with marker and looked like it was written by a 4 year old.

I can debate limited government issues.

For instance, I understand why a humble foreign policy is a conservative position. Do you?

Heh! Funny what skipping one word does to a sentence while typing, isn't it? I obviously meant to type post-Woodrow Wilson Isolationist. I need to proofread a bit more before clicking "post".

None of this changes the fact Paul is a loon with zero chance of gaining the nomination.

“non-interventionist foreign policy”

IMHO, that policy is suicide in this day of islamo-facsist terrorism. To embrace this isolationism is tantamount to surrender. It appears that Britain is sliding towards this policy.

Did you know during Roman times, actors were considered to be in the same social class as whores and were not eligible for burial among "decent" folk much less considered suitable for public office.

Do we really need another make-believe President?

Uh. Are you referring to Bill and Hillary?

Ever notice how many on the left and right claim to revere the Founding Fathers and the principles the Republic was founded on and yet consistently violate them or term them “outdated”?

Both use similar rationale to justify it as well.

Forget your dog trick...that handfull of Ron Paul internet spamers have apparently got him up to 2.4 million cash in hand with donations.
Now thats a %£@&%!!ing good trick for a bunch of “INSANE FRINGE KOOKS”...just imagine how much he might get if the really crazy ones start donating!!!
A special interest group must have bought him out, (like all the others).
Or it must be virtual money, as no way can it be due to grassroots, that just doesn’t happen anymore.
Yeah he was bought out, just watch, the next debate he will fall inline with the others and stop talking that freedom and liberty non-sense.
We can’t have that kind of talk spoiling our great country!!!

You also understand that “humble” does not work with islamo-facsists? We already see what that brought us, through catah and ‘toon... it brought us 3000 dead Americans on 9/11, and scores of life taking attacks before and after!

It's not real money--like gold or silver--it's just shabby fiat money. Ho hum.




Oh, and astroturf doesn't have grass roots.
