A lot of truth in your post....and no CAPS! Congrats!
Thansk Ali! This whole site has some great stuff.
That’s true, but I’ll bet he’s being used by the Tard party or Soros in some way to make the entire GOP look bad.
uHHh OK!!
Don’t forget, BJ never got more than 48% and that was for re-election against bobdull. He does not walk on water which surprises PravdABDNCBS.
Merry Christmas to Our Troops
Read: Moving the debate back to the Right. Fighting on our terms, not the Left. That's what Paul is doing. By staking out an extreme position (abolishing the IRS), he is negotiating on his terms, not the Rats or RINOs.
Don't be silly. We all know that Paul can't abolish the IRS overnight. What he can do is get the best possible deal for the American people. I guarantee you that if the IRS isn't eliminated, there'll be a flat tax or an NRST, and the IRS's powers will be cut drastically.
I hope you will forgive me if I don't hold my breath. We live in an age where we haven't even been able to overturn Roe vs. Wade! Gore won the popular vote in 2000. Kerrey, one of the worst candidates ever, lost by about 3%. We'll be lucky if the dems don't win in 2008. The IRS isn't going anywhere except my pockets!
They both crave power. Bubba just craves chicks a little bit more than Hillary does.
Neither ever does anything in a vacuum, every move they make is calculated,contrived and planned.He's just better at hiding it than she is.
She probably uses him far more than he her, and she undoubtedly has the goods on him where he has to take her seriously whether he wants to or not.
Problem is he has never been controllable and probably never will be.
Must have appealed to more crackpots...donations spiked right after the interview, many from new donors. As long as the money keeps flowing; I don’t think he’s going away.
Nor does the GOP. Some well-meaning, not super-informed, kids have taken to Paul as a concept. Can you imagine being raised in a blue, latte, ultra-PC suburb and trying to find a respectable politics by which you can show a little rebellion? Wouldn’t hurt the GOP to give their props to the libertarian instinct and invite them under the big GOP tent for the future.
35 years today was the Immaculate Reception.
* He says he respects the President but he says he doesn’t want to be running for Bush’s 3rd term.

Huckabee is excellent with the one-liner. This comment must be a result of the backlash he got from his article in Foreign Affairs magazine - the house organ of the CFR, I believe.
BTW, Peter Beinart was a guest on cspan this morning. He used to be the editor of a leftist magazine. Now he is a Senior Fellow at CFR. How incestuous all these beltway/Manhattan people are.
Absolutey untrue, Johnnie. That's as much a Hollywood myth as all Republicans are wealthy and democrats are only for the little guy.
And there are different types of IT jobs. Some might require sitting in a cubicle coding all day, but most require constant interaction with others--customers, co-workers, and suppliers. BTW, both Phsstpok and I are IT types. We're well known social party animals!
man, you got my sympathies w/ those migrains
father got em and my better 3/4’s takes a pill when one hits.
those things are like f4 tornados
He himself has offered no substantive plans to do anything.

I particularly appreciated the way Paul spoke like a legislator when asked any question that a running-to -be commander-in-chief should be answering. It showed me one more example of his utter fecklessness in running for the Chief Executive position in the world, really!
Oh yeah, he also said if our troops left South Korea, the Koreans would have a better chance of unifying, just like the Vietnamese have done.
How callous and blind to ramifications can a candidate be??????
I wanted to add my thought on Bill calling Hill a world class genius......................
......Hillary’s mouth is bigger’N” her ass and
.....her ass just called her a genius.
that’s my quote................mean ain’t I.
That Paul campaign mythology.
For example, Paul's bill titled "Restoring American Freedoms Act" show an utter contempt for the Constitutional powers of the Executive.
In addition, his every promise on the campaign trail indicates he has little to no concept of the limitations placed on the powers of the President by the US Constitution. He seems, mistakenly, to believe that just because he wills it, as President he can do it. He seems to have utterly no grasp of how our systems of checks and balances works.
Don't be fooled. Just because Paul shouts the word Constitution in every other sentence does not mean he actually has any fidelity, or real understanding, of the US Constitution.
