Ron Paul wants us out of Iraq now and is anti Israel.
His support runs from Far Left to NeoNazis.
I have talked to many of his supporters face to face and their arguments are no different than the Code Pinkos have have gone toe to toe on.
If Ron Paul is a Conservative then so is Obama
If Ron Paul is a conservative, so is George Bush.
I am (now) a supporter of Dr. Paul.
These are my reasons, they are probably not the ones that Code Pinko gave you. They are probably quite different from Obama’s platform.
* Authorized to use force in Afghanistan after 9/11.
* Wrote legislation to Declare War on Iraq in 2002.
* Is 100% consistent on the 2nd Amendment.
* Is 100% anti-abortion.
* Is anti-Department of Education.
* Introduced the “We the People Act”, which would prevent federal courts from hearing cases on abortion, same-sex marriage, sexual practices, and religious texts/symbols.
Among other things. Hardly the platform a Code Pinko would run on, is it?
Or other than his disagreement with the Iraq War, does he sound like a traditional conservative to you?
I doubt Obama would embrace any of the above.
I agree that I find that a lot of Ron Paul supporters are fairly unsavory sorts. At least the really vocal ones at public events here in SoCal.
But on the balance? He’s more of a Conservative than anyone left running in our party.
