TIME TO EAT CROW!!

Time for you to get a grip on reality. We all know Ron Paul likes to talk. He is a big talker - and a do-nothing.

He voted against prosecuting criminals who murder an unborn child in the course of a felony.

Ron Paul is not pro-life. He will agree to go along with criminalizing abortion if it occurs in state legislatures - that's about it.

Imagine if someone claimed to be pro-Second Amendment because they believed that the states had a right to grant shall-issue permits or not to grant them.

They would hardly be lauded as a Second Amendment warrior, but an opportunist who was willing to go along with whatever the local jurisdiction decided.

Short of an amendment to the Constitution, what the heck else could happen?
