He is more like 75% pro-life, 80% pro-gun, 50% pro-borders, 90% pro-capitalism. If you put this record on anyone else, you would slap a RINO label on him quicker than Rudy puts on a wig.

Lying doesn't become you.

Should I post again? Sure, why not..

Don't be fooled.. Paul is no Conservative. Votes speak louder than rhetoric.

Ron Paul's 2006 American Conservative Union rating: 76% Lifetime Rating: 82.3%

Ron Paul's Voting Record (ya, ya, I know, there is an excuse for all of these, state's rights are more important than stopping abortion and fixing the border, Ronnie is making a statement, or everyone else was voting against it and he was just playing the game, yadda, yadda, yadda)

Here are some more ‘Conservative(sic)’ votes by Paul:

Voted NO on federal crime to harm fetus while committing other crimes.

Voted NO on forbidding human cloning for reproduction & medical research.

Voted NO on barring transporting minors to get an abortion.

Voted YES on funding for alternative sentencing instead of more prisons.

Voted NO on more prosecution and sentencing for juvenile crime.

Voted NO on military border patrols to battle drugs & terrorism.

Voted NO on allowing school prayer during the War on Terror.

Voted NO on allowing vouchers in DC schools.

Voted NO on passage of the Bush Administration national energy policy.

Voted NO on implementing Bush-Cheney national energy policy.

Voted YES on barring website promoting Yucca Mountain nuclear waste dump.

Voted NO on speeding up approval of forest thinning projects.

Voted NO on reforming the UN by restricting US funding.

Voted NO on requiring lobbyist disclosure of bundled donations.

Voted NO on prohibiting lawsuits about obesity against food providers.

Voted NO on prohibiting product misuse lawsuits on gun manufacturers

Voted NO on prohibiting suing gunmakers & sellers for gun misuse.

Voted NO on decreasing gun waiting period from 3 days to 1.

Voted NO on emergency $78B for war in Iraq & Afghanistan.

Voted NO on $266 billion Defense Appropriations bill.

Voted YES on more immigrant visas for skilled workers.

Voted YES on providing $70 million for Section 8 Housing vouchers.

Voted NO on promoting work and marriage among TANF recipients.

Voted NO on treating religious organizations equally for tax breaks.

Let's also not forget Paul's Pork Projects (that he voted for before he voted against when he calls them unconstitutional but he is just playing the game when he submits them because everyone else does it.. yadda yadda yadda..)

Paul also supported the NAU superhighway by funding the TransTexas Corridor

Considering that the ACU rated Paul 76% last year, I may have actually been generous in my ratings for him in the previous post.

Chuck Baldwin, Constitution Party VP last cycle, the Constitution is based on the Gospel of Jesus Christ, but we have and do give asylum to other faiths. Would be nice if they’d address the future in their platform. Aggressively anti-war. Surprised to see him endorsing Paul, I’m not.

I know. We're always saying, "That durned mnehrling, always being so generous to Dr. Paul."

Voted NO on federal crime to harm fetus while committing other crimes.

I've scanned around Article 1, Section 8 of our Constitution looking for where the Congress might find the authority to pass such a law, but I can't find it. Can you help me out?

(And don't say the commerce clause. I'm a Clarence Thomas kind of a guy on that subject.

Do you believe the GOP can win the war or even the next election without the support of 2/3 of the American people?

Rasmussen Poll

Tuesday, October 16, 2007

For the second straight week, a Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that 64% of Americans would like to see U.S. troops brought home from Iraq within a year. Prior to this week’s results, support for bringing the troops home had increased in three consecutive weeks.

Equal protection clause for one. This bill would have applied the same legal standards to harming the unborn baby as current laws do in harming the mother. The unborn are not given equal treatment under the law, as required by the 14th Amendment. ...nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

They're upset about Medved again today. Note the moderators comment, don't say you hope someone kills him, say you hope he chokes on a pretzel.

I agree Joe. The U.S. would be a much better place without these people. The Medved's, the O'Reilly's, the Gibson's, the Hannity's and so on...

You may not care what he thinks, but you certainly better care about the warning you just got.

To everyone else:

Try not to say things like you hope "someone kills him."

Rather, "I hope he chokes on a pretzel" works just fine.

Remember, people riding the fence on Dr Paul are watching these forums and cavalier statements of that nature might be enough to make them walk away.

Also, remember that Dr Paul's philosophy is one of NON-violence.

Thanks.

Call him up and enthusiastically support the concept - that politicians should absolutely answer for these types of associations. Then lead him into the fact that the same group endorsed President Bush in 2000, but you must have missed the shows and letters he did about that.

I suspect dishonesty.

Also, the Ron Paul events I’ve seen are composed of old hippies, so I’m not sure where you get your young voter info.

its a turn on a derogatory term for the mentally handicapped - dont play the fool - its disgusting to those of us who have downs syndrome children among friends and family

I agree with jmegan, it seems that a lot of Paul's support comes from the new college counter-culture movements. Ron Paul is the new Che.

If you look on most of the anarchy sites that are popular in these college movements, you will see a lot of Paul support. Example:
http://www.anarchyware.com/

Paul is just the in thing to follow now... Stephen Colbert may be his biggest threat.

Then it would not be racist, it would be ?mentalist?
I understand though, the Ronulans are big into the whole PC thing, that’s why I changed my tag line, just for you.

Not to mention the fact that they’re wrong. There was no neonazi push for GWB, in fact he’d been highly critical of David Duke and the KKK in the past, as had his dad and Ronald Reagan, who they did attempt to support, and were rejected.

The Paulvestites like to pull these arguments that are difficult to disprove without taking a little time to look up the truth. They hope most people just smile and nod and drink their koolaid.
