NEWS FLASH

Ron Paul # 1 at LGF pole!

[mnehring]

You haven't heard of 'backdoor earmarks'? These are pork spending that Paul preaches against, but attaches them to bills he knows will pass while, at the same time, claiming to vote against (albeit we've seen he doesn't always vote against).. He tries to be everything to everyone- which, as we all know, means he is nothing to no one.

(these were just from a March 2007 list)

1. $25,000 for the Brazoria County Sheriff to establish a “Children’s Identification and Location Database.”

7. $4.5 million to study the effects of the health risks of vanadium.

Oh, and for all my Texas friends, I would like to point out that #20. $13 million for I-69 highway project, is the Trans-Texas corridor project that many claim is the first leg of the NAU, NAFTA Superhighway.

Prepare for an attack of the Borgs!

[mnehring]

The Borg talking points have been cut and pasted so much, it is almost funny.

[trisham]

You like me! You really, really like me!

[MacombBob]

This shows LGF’s bias against Ron Paul. You notice he listed Ron Paul last.

[Berlin_Freeper]

(resulting in more hate mail than for any other LGF post)

That’s actually scary.

“cesspool of a country?”*”

We don’t have and I take great exception to this comment.

You haven’t visited their forums yet have you? In addition to that, you also have to keep at least four browsers open (IE, Firefox, Safari, & Opera), hit the polls from your cell phone and the best tool, the PSP as cookies don’t upload to that.

[mnehring]

Take it up with LGF.

"OK, I’ll bite. What is the matter with Ron Paul? He is a classic conservative, preaching sound money, fiscal discipline, controlled borders, and non-interventionism? Is it because he’s against the Iraq war, or is there more?"

I'm not really sure...maybe it's because he physically reminds me of an unsedated Marshall Applewhite (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Applewhite).

No one can save our country.

[lormand]

Very funny!

"What is the matter with Ron Paul?"

Easy

His siding with Al Qaida propaganda which blames America for Islamic hate, suicidal foreign policy goals, and coddling of truthers and kook conspiracy nutballs are fatal positions for someone to claim as Conservative.

Anyone left thinking that Ron Paul is a Conservative is misguided, stupid or are purposely lying.
