“If there's any discredit due, it goes to those who continue the establishment meme: bigger government with meddling all around the world for good measure.”

You certainly are good at making excuses for Ron Paul. Oh oh, poor guy he couldn't get anything done because “we haven't sent anyone to help him out”. OOh poor Ron Paul, he just tries so hard but nothing is his fault, everything is our fault because we don't send enough people to help him.

Ron Paul was first elected to Congress in 1976. He is a committee chairman. He has much more seniority than most true conservatives who have actually accomplished things. Name one single piece of legislation Ron Paul has proposed that has passed and became law. Name a single accomplishment of the Committee he chairs.

Ron Paul has been part of the government for years. He is part of the Washington establishment. His tenure in Washington was precisely the time government became big, dysfunctional and out of control. He goes out attacks the government he is a part of and some people actually fall for it.

I for one don't believe in irresponsible, out of control government spending and I have nothing but contempt for hypocrites like Ron Paul who have been part of the problem and then pretend they have never been in Washington while all this is going on.

Do you support Iran like Ron Paul does? Do you think it is good that Iran is supplying IED’s that maim and kill our servicemen? Do you think it is good that Iran is developing nuclear weapons that it brags that it will use against Israel and the U.S.? Do you think it is good that the Iranian regime continually refers to America as the Great Satan?

Do you support the Code Pink foreign policy? Do you know if Ron Paul's foreign policy differs from that of Code Pink?

Do you support Occupy thugs disrupting events for Newt and Santorum? These Occupy thugs work for Ron Paul.

Think for a second. Why do you think Occupy leftists who are organized by the Obama Administration are working so hard to support Ron Paul. Why do you think the Soros funded group C.R.E.W. is working so closely with Ron Paul to spread lies about Santorum?

Ron Paul depends on his supporters being ignorant of his record and his activities. Please learn a little, think for yourself.

I am not inclined to judge legislators favorably in terms of the amount of legislation they can pass, or the amount of influence they can wield. In fact, that is one of the things that impresses me the most about Ron Paul. The legislation he *has* endorsed and proposed has been well-thought-out and reasonable; consistently conservative.

As for involvement in the affairs of other countries, we've asked for a spanking and received it. Unfortunately neither our State Department, nor our politicians, nor ignorant armchair pundits like yourself can man up and admit the mistake of what is essentially taking a fancy stick to a beehive and expecting adulation and obedience from the critters.

I don't know or care what Code Pink is about in any detail, but it would not surprise me to find their views in accord with those of Ron Paul to some degree. It is a concurrence on a purely logistical level, not on a philosophical level.

As for the behavior of OWS types, inasmuch as they are boorish, loud, obnoxious, and ignorant, I find them reprehensible, just as I find it reprehensible to suggest our leaders planned and executed the 9/11 attacks. So does Ron Paul.
