Yes, I do.
So does most of the voting public, which is why Ron Paul supporters are crazy to think he'll win in a general election.
This is tortured logic. I’m assuming from your perspective that you never served at all. From all of the facts that I have heard, Ron Paul served honorably and for a reasonable period of time.
Making up crap about how that is an attempt to evade danger is just silly.
He did not decide to become a career officer because he wanted to be a doctor. Nothing wrong with that...
Why doesn’t everyone grow up and focus on facts instead of this hysterical and shrill name-calling that is more typical of the far left.
(Yes, I did serve as a Naval Aviator for 10 years before you ask...)
Sorry, but that is bull feces. He may claim over and over and have his sheep baaaaaa the mantra he does, but he plays as fast and loose with the Constitution as the rest of them. Just like the rest of them, he picks and chooses what he wants and ignores what he doesn't like. He starts with his Paulibertarian viewpoint first and twists the Constitution to make it fit.
Thanks for the link to the gold history thread, I’ll read it more later but it doesn’t address the reasons why other standards (like none) promote booms and busts. Right now thanks to failed Fed policy since the late 80’s we are stuck between inflation and recession.
It was avid Reagan followers such as Paul who reshaped the Texas Republican Party. In 1976 Paul, then a freshman congressman, was one of only four Republican House members nationally to back Reagan’s insurgent candidacy.
It doesn’t HAVE to be gold, or silver, or any precious metal. It could be crude oil, diamonds, or uranium, or even wheat, or refined 87 octane gasoline, etc. The objective is to tie the value of money to SOMETHING...to shackle the Fed.gov in restraits so that it cannot play games with the money supply and create arbitrary inflation.
And in 1988, Paul called Reagan a ‘dramatic failure’ and said he wanted to disassociate himself with the “Reagan Revolution”. Based on Paul’s own request, he doesn’t want to be associated with Reagan.
How anyone can support this racist, jew hating, retarded 10 year scum-filled newsletter publisher and all around COMPLETE stuttering nutjob is beyond me.
Big spenders like worthless paper money that allows them to spend more.
Facts??? Facts??? Ron Paul came out on public TV during a nationwide debate and said he was drafted then proceeded to lecture Newt on military service. Ron Paul is a flat out liar. Period!
..and Palio Fraudie is part of that. Mr. Opposes the Border Fence to ‘keep Americans in’ to playing nice with Iran even going to their State media. He is a tool.
Well, since countries like Switzerland and especially France were able to redeem thier dollars for Gold - it seems to me we still had a Gold Standard in reality, not just as a legal vestige.
I'll discuss issues. How about the issue of Ron Paul's destruction of US national security? How about his decades of vile newsletters? How about Ron Paul's sympathizing with the occupy parasites and traitors to the US? How about his ignoring the spread of nukes amongst terrorists? How about his partnering with Barney Frank and George Soros? How about his desire to destroy tens of millions of additional individuals, families, neighborhoods and US productivity with dope? How about the issue of why he is supported by conspiracy nut shows and white supremacists? How about why he is a 9/11 conspiracy nutcase? Those might be a good start at discussing issues.
And no, we will save the New World Order/”Globalist” discussion issue for the fringe conspiracy shows.
That’s always been the modus operandi for Uncle Paul, The Undisputed King of the Earmarks year after year after year after year..........
My of my. Didn’t you stir up the demonic mob! At this point there have been 68 comments on the article you posted, and all of them negative and most of them ad hominem.
Why is the mob so threatened by Ron Paul? Why such detailed research into his past? Why the consistent, repeated, assertions that he is “crazy” and “a liar”? The viciousness of the attacks makes me think that there is something else going on here—perhaps a threat to the establishment’s status quo? or to the vested interests?
This country never had a fence on the border, when we had loyal Americans occupying political office. We never had a fence when we had a war with Mexico, we never had one during the Great Depression, or during WWII. We never had one during the cold war. Why is that?
Now we have globalist scum running the country and the ‘fence’ debate is just their pretend way to placate citizens concerned about the cultural and economic destruction of this country.
We all know what needs to be done, but the globalists are in power and they won’t allow us. They occupy BOTH parties.
I am sick of Alinsky tactics in every discussion. I want to know the issues, and the means to resolve them.
Nowadays you can’t elect people based on their platform, because the platform is never discussed!
A quote from 1976 including Reagan? Starnge, Paul and his followers keep the smoke and mirrors defense of the decades of vile newsletters with a “that was twenty years ago” mantra and you want to discuss a quote from 45 years ago?
I don’t know if Paul was a kook that far back. I know he was by the time he started producing those newsletters. I know he is nuts, dangerous and tramples the US Constitution now.
I know he is a menace to the security and well being of the United States.
