Just had a great idea. Ron Paul as UN ambassador in that mix.

(After we kick the UN out and send them to some place like Haiti)

I imagine they figure only Republicans are watching a Republican debate on Fox News. Besides, it’s not scientific at all, it’s a marketing tool. It’s used on tv all over the place.

I realize that, but again, it creates false impressions for the unskilled and a tool for the leftists for propaganda.

I can see how RP comes off as crazy to some, upon occasion, he uses leftist rhetoric, when he should be explaining his views in conservative terms. However, domestically he really is second to none on all the issues. He really believes in small government, more than any other candidate.

I agree with him on many of his foreign policy stances, but I support him primarily because I believe current American Socialism is the greater threat to our liberty. The government indoctrinates our children, steals nearly half of what we earn, stifles out economic growth, harms our citizens with its healthcare meddlings, and the list goes on; yet to some all of these things appear to be secondary to other concerns. They are not to me, and that is why I support RP. :)

Hmmmmm        wonder why.   Could it be that he is a leftist?     He has is own view of what conservatism is, and unfortunately it is tainted by how far up his ass his head is.

 

My 2 cents.

lol, he is actually the farthest thing from a ‘leftist’ if by leftist you mean those who favor increasing the size of government.

He agrees with the current political left in the areas where they favor smaller government, he does so for reasons opposite of leftist reasoning, yet because of the similarities in these areas he gets lumped in with them.

To: markoman

Actually, markoman, to be perfectly honest I have heard Romney say in the past something to the effect that we —the U.S.— need to “reach out” more to the “international community” re the WOT. Or, he says we have not done so enough, to sell them on the WOT. This is a little bit disturbing. I’m not sure what he means, and he needs to expand on that, provide detail.

My attention was somewhat divided tonight so did not follow word for word.

Hope this helps.

If you're going to properly analyze Fred's photo, you'll need a closeup.

If they are that unskilled they probably aren't watching a political debate. As for propaganda for the leftists, I think that's the point. Ron Paul is a leftist. Nevertheless, the Paulites can crow all they like, as they are doing on this hijacked thread, but Ron Paul is in the debates for his entertainment value, not his political viability.

I SAY:

And so you support a man who has no chance of winning...a man that ‘commands’ no respect from our military and his electoric....in fact a man who is the laughing joke of Washington?

Hey Pumpkin....not much will matter when the Islamists cut off our heads!

lol, well, you may not be aware that Ron Paul has received more donation from more military personel than any other candidate.

FYI:
Ron Paul on Hannity and Combs after the debate, this is pretty good:
