Ron Paul ping
Yes.
Pretty sad, that the candidate who adheres to the Constitution is denigrated the most.
Pathetic. Having Andrew Sullivan to flaunt a campaign.
But of course, Mr Sullivan feverishly hopes that Mr Paul will pull a Perot and split the Republican base in 2008 so his single issue, legalized Gay Marriage, will have a chance to pass a post 2008 Democrat controlled Govt.
Too bad for him, along with all the other hysteric Know Nothings, Ron Paul has ZERO chance of wining anything. People do NOT vote for lunatic fingers whose ONLY answer to every issue is “Do Nothing”.
You’ve convinced me. If Andrew Sullivan likes Ron Paul, then that says a lot to me.
I rise in opposition to this resolution, which I sincerely believe will do more harm than good... It is very clear, reading this resolution objectively, that all the terrorists are on one side and all the victims and the innocents are on the other side. I find this unfair, particularly considering the significantly higher number of civilian casualties among Lebanese civilians. I would rather advocate neutrality rather than picking sides, which is what this resolution does.
Yes, Mr. Paul, the resolution does take sides. It takes the side of peace and freedom over terrorist regimes. That's a problem for you?
This wasn't the first time Paul stood solo on a nay vote for pro-Israel legislation.
In 1997, the Jewish Herald-Voice and the Congressional Quarterly wrote:
Showing a complete disregard for families victimized by the recent terrorist attack in Israel, Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) was the only congressman to oppose an otherwise unanimous resolution to condemn two terrorist bombings. Paul was the lone dissenter when the House of Representatives adopted a resolution to condemn the tragic bombing that killed 13 people and wounded 170 others in Israel.
Additionally, Paul once suggested in a political newsletter that the Israeli government was one of the most "evil lobbying groups in Washington" (Houston Chronicle, 2/23/97).
In a fundraising letter in 1996, Paul wrote: "It's time that Israel stopped running American foreign policy and draining American taxpayers' wallets." When groups protested to the Republican leadership that Paul was being assigned to the international affairs committee, Paul blamed the Israeli government for the loss of his promised seat.
I have a question for you.
What exactly is Ron Paul’s position on illegal immigration?
No surprise from Christ Matthews.
No, none of that matters! All that matters is you have FAITH that finally your new "god" has finally emerged to save you all from the consequences of your own misspent lives! It not your fault! It the fault of the immigrants, Iraq war, Trade Deals, .....(put your pet cause here)...and the Great "Ron Paul" is here to save you and bring forth the utopia!!!!
Paul seems to have just taken a whole lot of talk radio slogans and mindlessly ignorant sound bites and strung them all together to convince the political fringes that meaningless demagoguery, spewed endlessly by Paul to shamelessly pander to their wholly emotion based political bigotries and drama queen teenage style angst, can some how be mistaken for an agenda that can win an election.
This guy will get even less votes the Pat Buchannan got in 2000. But keep wasting your time, your money and your efforts. Keep getting yourselves all in a lather over this loser. It will just make it that much funnier when political reality comes up and slaps you all silly yet again.
Taking Ron Paul Seriously
Why?
A few people will continue to take Ron Paul seriously until the primary voting starts. Then it’s over.
A leftist exposing the real reason they even give ron paul any attention.
As this homosexual point out this “candidate” we have to remember he is for pulling the troops out.
Ron Paul is a sacrificial anode for those naive enough to think that someone who is less than 1% in the general voting population somehow has a tax cut before a democrat’s chance of being elected.
He is just vying for the ross perot crown of short kooky candidate.
I saw the Youtube video and was favorably impressed. But then again he’s my Congressman and I would hate to lose his voice in Washington. Of course, in the unlikely event that he would become President, I would be happy.
I like Paul’s policy of weighing each vote against the limitations placed on federal government by the Constitution. Agree with him or not, you have to respect that.
Oh Puhleeze. We dont need an idealist in charge.
We need someone that will get things done
He once ran on the Losertarian ticket and he wants respect???? This is from the Onion?
Nah, he’s a nut. If he’s the last man standing vs. Hillary, this country is doomed...same as with much of the current crop of bozo GOP RINO’s. It’s horrible that we can’t get a true Statesman, a Conservative to stand up against the Rats and their enabler Drive By Media...this country is sick and needs drastic surgery to rid us of the Rat Filth. Ron Paul hasn’t a chance...maybe Hunter or Fred...
I can’t vote for a libertarian ever.
