The Strawman in this case was Fred.
I gave an example of a politican trying to pretend to be something they weren't, by wrapping themselves around 'mom, apple pie and the American way'.
You know and I know they are a dime a dozen...

YouTube video via Drudge- Ron Paul quote this morning on Fox and Friends- "When fascism comes it will be wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross. "
Your so brilliant and I bet you know more about the Constitution than anybody.
I didn't quote anything. Did you see quotation marks? I turned the phrase to my own purpose.
Yes, and as a defense against Communism.
And what strawman was that?

Ike and Nixon didn't run on the platform of ending the Korean and Vietnam wars?
You know where. Are you as dumb as you appear?
Because they were taken out of context?
Nope. I've quoted the entire segment. Nothing out of context; only your attempt at painting it that way because you have nothing to stand on.
Good! That's more money to promote Paul's agenda, not theirs.
Thank you! I'm happy you saw fit to acknowledge Paul's acceptance of donations from Truthers and Fascists. No we can lay the question of their contributions to rest.
Sorry pal, I peeped the Huckster's record, and he's nothing more than a socon Giuliani.
You love putting words and ideas in someone else's mouth or head. A very poor tactic. No! I would not be cheering, I'd be highly critical. Don't project your own practices onto me.
Keep insinuating that I did to try to bolster your pathetic argument.
Good question. Makes you wonder why they're showing so much interest his campaign, doesn't it? Is it possible the real answer won't suit your beliefs?
Perhaps they're tired of being anti-war leftists, Truthers and socialists, and want to discover liberty. Ever think of that?
Knock off the personal attacks.
Nixon won by the skin of his teeth when George Wallace voters, the vanguard of the future Reagan Democrats, decided that they had had enough of the Great Society and took a last minute flyer on Nixon to stop Humphrey's dangerously effective campaign which was closing fast on Nixon.
Ike won because America was worn out with the New Deal and the Fair Deal and did not want to support a pseudo-egghead like Adlai Stevenson for POTUS. Ike was nothing to write home about. Poor general and not much of a president. Ike suffered a nervous breakdown and showed his true colors in denouncing what he called "the military industrial comoplex" when he should have been attacking the welfare state.
Remember that Winston Churchill was defeated in 1945 and that was not a reflection on him but on the weariness of British voters.
To compare a despicable twerp such as the paleoPaulie whom we are now experiencing with Ronaldus Maximus is a political atrocity.
I'd like to see a reference for that, if you have one.

Honestly? No. And if you do you're more crazy than I thought.
I may have misplaced my eyeglasses. Can you point it out to an old man like myself?
Nope. I've quoted the entire segment. Nothing out of context; only your attempt at painting it that way because you have nothing to stand on.
You can quote it word for word and it's still taken out of context. Your comprehension is poor.

Hey you're welcome! As Paul eloquently stated in his PBS interview which BTW, he denounced white supremacism UH AHEM money is just the water. If they want to donate to him, then by all means go for it. You're talking about a guy who told lobbyists and special-interests to go get bent for 20 years. Now why would he suddenly change for some scruffy snotty-nosed Truthers and fascists?
Thank you, Admin. I thought that my handle was going to be booted off here forever for simply posting the word “douche”. If that was the case, then I realize now why everybody kept saying I wouldn’t be around too long! LOL. I’ll take care not to offend you in the future ;).
The $6.4 million Dr. Paul raised. All of it from white supremacists, Truthers, and conspiracy nuts?

Check out post #542 by SandRat to you. It may have even better ideas on how to get the information you want.
And, no, I didn’t expect you to change your tune over one thread. I noted there’s a lot more where that came from. I simply question your sincerity to learn as opposed to finding talking points.
Oh, and I’ll try not too offend others, either (since that’s probably the point in the first place).
^^^ See, I just might have a brain, people!
Sure. Renounce them then take their cash. Nice guy. A fraud, but still a nice guy. Really someone I'd want to vote for.
NOT! You criticize my comprehension yet you paint in your own words a man who's in it for the money. Sheesh. Wise up!
