I actually wish I had voted for him instead of McLame. I voted against Obama and for Sarah, but to do it, I had to vote for Lame.

If Sarah Palin runs, I will proudly vote for her, but I am not voting for any more RINOs because they might have a chance to beat the greater of two evils.

I mourned when Obama won. Yes, Lame wouldn’t have done as much damage as the Marxist is doing, but he still would have been a socialist wrecking ball.

I didn’t like some of Ron Paul’s views. I do believe that the Iraq war was necessary. I do like his desire for fiscal restraint and smaller government.

Either his voice was too “high and whiny”, or they viewed his position on America’s foreign policy to be “wacko” and “crazy”. The going phrase at the time, and still today, is that Ron Paul is a politician who is living “on the fringe”. He was not “mainstream” enough to win over much of the concerned voting public.

As a conservative I can respond to the questioning of why people didn't vote for Paul. I think he's insane. That doesn't mean he's wrong on everything. In fact, he's correct in a number of areas, but he's only just this side of Gore sanity wise.

Ron Paul is a pipsqueak. Ron Paul is a gnat.

We’ve got our great leader. We’ve got our Ronald Reagan. She’s come down from the north to roll up her sleeves and work with us to roll back the tide of communism sweeping our land.

If citizen Ron Paul wants to roll up his sleeves and contribute, I say three cheers for Ron Paul and his supporters.

But if pipsqueak Ron Paul has delusions of grandeur and delusions of leadership, I say go to hell, Ron Paul. Go to hell.

As far as I know our policy hasn't changed.

As far as our official policy on Ron Paul is concerned, it's the same policy we have for his antiwar moonbat allies the traitors Harry Reid, Chuckie Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Jack Murtha, Cindy Sheehan, Barbara Streisand, Jane Fonda, CodePink, International Answer, et al and their flaming antiwar spam monkeys. Ron Paul and his flaming antiwar spam monkeys can Kiss my Ass!!

Where the hell did you guys ever get the idea that enemy supporting antiwar moonbats would be welcome on FR?

That plain enough for you or do I need to spell it out?

It is amazing to me how 90+% of the GOP is anything but ‘conservative’ yet because they call themselves republican and support the war well then by golly I support them too even though almost everything they stand for is antithetical to our long term survival as a people and an as a nation.

Just a day ago Ron Paul said that the terrorist attack was because America is an occupier.

Sorry, this man is a fringe TOO far.

Just what country were we occupying on 9/11

Does Paul believe that attacks on America are ‘chickens coming home to roost’

RON PAUL

TRAITOR TO REPUBLICAN PARTY IN 2008 BY TOYING THE IDEA OF CONSIDERING VOTING FOR TEH ONE, OBAMA.

PAUL NEVER CONCEDED TO MCCAIN.

RECENT WACKO JOB? THAT STUPID REMARK ABOUT US AS OCCUPIER?????????

COMMON, GUYS.

I believe in Paul’s fight against the monstrosity of the Fed. But there is a huge character flaw on the old man.

To Rand Paul:

It’s about time to clearly disassociate (be independent) yourself from your father. STAND ON YOUR OWN. You’re the better Paul.

Many of the old Rs are either RINO, corrupt*, no-good old boys ... and/or wacko. GEESH!!!!!!!!!! VOTE FOR NEW AND YOUNG REPUBLICANS AND CONSERVATIVES!!!!!!!

*Relatively, the Ds are the Demons.

I gave Ron Paul a glance. If you can’t see right through him and tell he is a crackpot within 20 minutes - you are a crackpot also.

Note: even a broken clock is right twice a day and Ron Paul’s admirers keep pointing to those two times each day as the reason he is the best candidate.....

Go figure.

Ron Paul has too many Alex Jones followers. Alex Jones is the original Mr. Crazy Pants.

“They’re terrorists because we’re occupiers,” Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, said on the Larry King show:

Truthfully, if a firm and consistent belief in a small government and a non-interventionist foreign policy is what it means to be on the fringe, then I am proud to be here.

This is where Ron Paul lost me and most of the Conservatives I know. The idea that it is better to fight the enemy overseas rather than here in the homeland is rooted in our basic character. Mr Paul seems to feel that if we leave them alone, they'll leave us alone. That idea is so naive that it makes us question his basic thinking process. We are at war. We cannot unilaterally declare peace and go home because the other side won't let us.

Don't get me wrong, I agree with him on the small government concept and most of his other positions....but when he loses his creditability like this it's hard to get it back.

Ron Paul has some great ideas about constitutionality in government, but he’s way too far out there on the fringe insofar as Iraq and Afghanistan are concerned. I have yet to hear how he’d take the fight to al-Qaeda. It’s rather difficult to “declare war” on a non-state entity.

Ron Paul is the only Federal legislator whose ideas resemble any of those of the Founding Fathers...including the admonition about involving ourselves in foreign affairs.

There simply is no need for the depths of our involvment in the overseas oil markets that have led us to a condition of nearly “perpetual war” in a region of the world permantly wedded to hatred.

I agree with his stand on the fed and the economy - his foreign policy is left field
