I like him a lot as well. I think he is a good man.

It was a great time!

I commented on that pic yesterday but then I had a chance to talk to some of my friends on the Brownback campaign last night. I asked them about the pic, and they said he filled the room at the college and that was taken at the very end of the event, during the last minutes of a Q&A session. Knowing that these guys have no reason to lie to me, and knowing how the media works against us....

It [the Middle East]has cost us close to $1 trillion and we have nothing to show for it. We don’t even have the OIL!!! We are wrong!! Time to accept the truth. Our Party is absolutely finished if we don’t close the border...

Worth repeating for all those who call Ron Paul an idiot. Maybe it's the broken clock theory in action, regardless he is so right on the above statement. When are we going to open our eyes and realize Saudi Arabia is/has been screwing us? When are we going to stop rebuilding the Middle East while taking fire?

“A couple of our guys look and/or are old: Thompson and McCain”

Hopefully they will not use their superior experience as an issue in the campaign. ;>)

LOL! That reminds me of Reagan’s line about not holding Mondale’s youth and inexperience against him. Great line.

Wallace and Hume have actually sounded really po’d in their questions to Paul.

Even though they are on Fox News, they are still members of the unelected media elite who think they are smarter than everyone else, and are PO'ed they have to deal with Ron Paul.

Pat Paulson died on April 24, 1997.

[traviskicks]

Agreed. I actually though his best performance was on Hannity and Combs(sp) afterwards. I’ve posted the video link here on FR if you haven’t seen it.

[ejonesie22]

Yes, sad thing too...However, come to think of it, he still would have made more sense than Paul anyways.

[jackieaxe]

After hearing Rudy’s answer on Iran....I’d sleep well with him in the Oval Office.

You never know. Rudy may be getting sick of his present wife!

[Rennes Templar]

Was wondering if you’d pick that up! Yes it was a great line.

[jackieaxe]

And wouldn’t it be funny if RuPaul turns out to be the 3rd party-er that knocks out the RAT in 08? ROFL!!

I don't think he will run third party but here's a way out senario: NH Primary: Romney 12% Gulaini 12% Thompson 11% McCain 6% Paul 13% with the remainder getting 54%

"The world is flat."

He's toast.

[jackieaxe]

Oh come on you don’t think 33% of the viewers are really moronic enough to support RuPaul?

I'm supporting Ron Paul and I'm not a moron. Also, I don't believe "to a person" all the Ron Paul supporters believe the 911 planes were empty and remote controlled. I don't. BTW, Ron Paul is the only republican candidate who would cut the federal budget. All the others talk about slowing down the growth of the federal government. I am realistic the Ron Paul will not be nominated, but he's a good republican and deserves better than the abuse he gets here in a so-called conservative web site.

Ron Paul’s despicable courtship of Alex Jones Conspriazoids, is evidence of his insanity.

He is not a serious man, not even close.

[angelcindy]

yea but more people watch leno than the debates..

[WalterSkinner]

..if you had listened to Hunter's comments and answers on this question during previous speeches and debates--you would know his position and have no doubt as to what his actions would be as CIC.

Try answering any question with someone trying to cut you off in mid-sentence.

WADR your critique is biased and just plain silly...

[WWRPD]

No no, my friend. Who was the person NOT laughing at Paul?

70% of Americans.
