None of the candidates are as fiscally conservative as I would like. Tell me which one is more fiscally conservative than Paul. They are all fiscal conservatives in the same sense that GW was a fiscal conservative, which is to say they are not. You don’t seem to comprehend that the next 6 years will make or break the US government. You can’t run deficits of $1.5 trillion per year for the next 6 years without bankrupting the country,so now we know who “hates” America. It’s the ones who would do that. The establishment candidates aren’t going to force those cuts. I doubt that even Paul would but he might come closer. I’ve already said I am not satisied with Paul as a candidate. I’m just saying that if my choice is one of those currently on the list I may go with him. They’ve got to give us someone better than these choices.
I do not believe that your knowledge of Islam is correct.
I do not believe that you are an expert on the Qur’an.
The problems with the Muslims started in 1947.
If we want no problems with the Muslims, go back to how it was in 1946.
And I don’t want to hear about pirates in 1800.
Let the residents of the Middle East kill each other for all I care.
You want Ron Paul to vote for more spending and you believe that only Obama should have a say in where that money is spend.
It has been established - for years - that Ron Paul is the strongest Limited Constitututional Government out there.
There’s a reason that the tea party sounds exactly like Ron Paul.
Big Government “Conservatives” like yourself don’t want to stop spending.
No, you’d rather change the subject from spending to earmarks.
Spending - do we spend the money - Ron Paul says no.
Earmarks - who decides who gets the money - Ron Paul says - my constitutents do not want me spending this money but since LORMAND’s friends voted to spend the money, I want to make sure that my constituents don’t get ripped off.
RINOs like McCain, LORMAND’s friends, came up with the switch away from a focus on spending, to a focus on earmarks.
LORMAND wants more spending.
RON PAUL votes not to spend.
Earmarks are a distraction that big spenders like lormand use to confuse the issue - which is spending.
Isn't that a Bullshit position to take, so you can bullshit your constituents? Hey, I didn't vote for spending, but I'll spend the money anyway. He is a real Thomas Jefferson eh?
Again, I'm shocked...shocked I tell you that you Paulhroids are not taken seriously. That and jet fuel can't melt steel.....he he!
You don’t get the process.
Yes Lormand, you voted to spend. The only question then becomes where does that money go? It is controlled by the President, or do the congressmen have a right to say where it goes.
If I can’t stop it from happening, at least I’ll be able to say where it goes.
