Iwo, I appreciate your brave remarks but I know you’re not on our Ron Paul pinglist. Don’t be walking any planks for our sake or for Ron Paul’s. It’s very much a lost cause here, mostly a matter of whether they’ll stage a Saturday Night Massacre like with the Juliebots or whether they’ll wait for the first Saturday Night of the next fundraiser to pull the plug on the RP supporters. Seems to stimulate contributions when the sheriff hangs those rustlers. LOL.

Anyway, every RP thread here at FR is now an all-out attack thread. So I’ve been considering that there’s no useful purpose to continue posting threads here. The thread disruptors have made these threads so radioactive that no one will even read them except trolls or Paul supporters. A few exceptions, like you, are encouraging but won’t change things much.

Aw, now come on GWB. Its no worse than any other campaign discussed and argued over in political forums over the past four election cycles.

In a few months, the primaries will be ‘for real’. After the first two, that will be the end of Ron Paul’s run for the GOP nomination, he’ll become the LP candidate, and that will be that. I think he’ll draw more votes from the left side of the political spectrum than the right, which works for me, as you know.

You know the old saying. The worst thing is being talked about. The second worst thing is NOT being talked about.

RP is getting the benefit of the second part, thats all. In the biggest political forum on the web. At least people are paying attention to what he mutters.....(chuckle)

I don't intend on walking any planks for anybody's sake. I only intend to defend the Constitution and America by articulating time-honored libertarian and conservative principles.

If that ever becomes verboten here, I am sure that someone will let me know.

well, let the name callers name call because I think people of right mind know that these sorts of criticisms, ‘he’s crazy’ or ‘he’s a loon’ are, obviously, nonsubstantitive, and this lack of concrete rebutall and out of line criticisms and disproportionate uncivility only reinforce the notion that perhaps RP is onto something...
