Yes, nurse.
Oh, I think it’s a perfect picture for the ideology of Democratism.
“You cannot undermine the Commander in Chief without undermining the troops he leads. That is the act of a traitor.”
I’m thinking “undermine” was a bad choice word. Here, oppose, speak out against, seek to change, etc., would suffice. Since to some, undermining may suggest something more devious and under handed.
Either way, one can absolutely support our troops without supporting the President regardless what anyone else might say or believe. Commanders in the theater of war are dutifully replaced when they fail to perform. Were they traitors too? Of course not. They simply failed to deliver and were replaced.
We can’t do the same with the CIC. In the meantime, citizens have a right to disagree with the President’s policy and his war effort good or bad. For anyone to suggest otherwise is unAmerican.
Looks like the mods took out the trash.
It just gets curiouser and curiouser.
“But only a small-government liberty agenda is going to beat the Xlinton machine.”
A liberty driven constitutionally restricted fed.gov should not be debatable. But I’m witnessing many here (on a conservative forum,) as well as the majority of liberal voters, viewing our future proper as continuing down the road to a socially progressive quasi communistic like totalitarian state.
“Sure, like the Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact. Then you have Ron Paul supporters with MoveOn.org. Both want America defeated. Both will lose.”
I am not “with” moveon.org. We are invading their event. Frankly, I’m a little overwhelmed because as of now there will be 29 of them and only 8 of us. Yet, I still believe they can be persuaded by the freedom message, and join the cause of liberty.
“Whats striking is they combine the isolationist tendencies of Buchanan with the anti-war of Kucinich. Is Ron Paul like the clearinghouse of anti-conservative attackers? Why would RP assign himself the catalyst of all these whackjob factions? Including the trutherists?”
Ron Paul is not isolationist. He is a non-interventionist. He believes we should have open and free trade, and talk with other countries, but not to become the policemen of the world.
We are NOT aliinging with moveon.org. Ron Paul supporters, who want the IRS to disappear, and spending to be drastically cut, disagree with almost everything moveon.org says. We are invading this rally to try to persuade people into the freedom message of Ron Paul.
So when you invade their event.... what’re y’all gonna do?
Like, merge? Coalesce? Stand off?
If you really think you have that much in common with moveon.org, why are you here?
I have nothing in common with gun enthusiasts either, as I do not own a gun. Yet we still campaign outside of gun shows, because they might be persuaded by the freedom message and join the r{EVOL}ution.
“So when you invade their event.... whatre yall gonna do?
Like, merge? Coalesce? Stand off?”
I have no idea what’s going to happen tomorrow. They will be surprised that we are there. We will see. I’ll keep you posted after the event.
How do you plan to convince them Ron Paul represents their interests?
I have a stack of Ron Paul literature specifically targeted to anti-war people. It shows Ron Paul’s picture on the front and says “end the war”. It highlights his record on voting against the war, and the patroit act, as well as other civil liberties issues.
LOL
