pretty much everybody was angry with prince shrub.
none of the candidates looked any better.

at least the posters on that thread were nicer about it.
if it's any consolation if RP does win

oh and the economic conditions that led to the creation of the fed. reserve were created by the banksters.
despite clearer heads pointing out that the fed would have the power to scientifically create and manage the very same economic manipulations it was "supposed to prevent", it was allowed to come into existence.

Hate to be divisive here but did anyone notice how the people in this commerical were white people? Not only that but good looking, rich, important looking white people. The policeman and the clerk were working class minorities, aka servants of these rich white people.
The underlyng message is: reporting suspicious minorities to the police will make you a good looking, suit wearing, taxi affording American patriot.

I have always said it, republicans and democrats are 2 sides of the same coin. They have managed to turn the election system into a vote for the least evil candidate. Ron Paul wants a return to before government got a taste of free money.
Abolish the IRS and return federal funding to that states rather than the citizen. To start that is. The ruling elite want him GONE. That's enough for me to want to get to know him.
it's always "the lesser of two evils." it's an integral part of the system. When you only have a handful of candidates each trying to become the leader of a nation of hundreds of millions of persons, the winner will always be the one that is least repugnant. You can't please everyone after all. Basically the voting system is a system of compromise where the choices are narrowed down and finally decided as a course of determining whichever candidate the most people feel they can settle for.
I know that kills the heroic romance of it, but, well, that's just how it works. While I'm spoiling dreams, the Spartans were goddamned terrible warriors, western civilization was saved by Genghis Khan, and The Eagles are a freaking terrible band.
Pause for a moment. Look at what you're saying. Examine the words you use. I don't know if you're even aware of it, but all you're saying is nothing but slogans. Lots of sizzle, no steak. I know that for many in this nation, the sound is more important than the meat, but, well, it's actually not. Look up his positions. Apply them. Figure the results. Every policy change has positives and negatives. The positives are generally negligible for analysis until after a reasoned and deep appraisal of the negatives.
Ask if the economic plan installed in Chile in 1973 is what we want for the United States in 2013.

Well said!!! I would only offer one suggestion. Let's cool it with the name calling, whether it fits or not, it doesn't help to further a cause and not only brings us down a level, but doesn't help anything. Yes there are extremely fervent Ron Paul supporters here who will never acknowledge their overzealousness matches whom they called "obamatards" and maybe if we all take a step back and breathe a little, hell, the election isn't until next year.
The fun part won't be calling people paultards. The fun part will be when he has to change his message in the least. Because that is his "strength", being inflexible on his own opinions for nearly forty years now. I know even four years ago I was able to keep an open mind and be flexible in order to work with others. Just call him out for that and watch the all caps responses fly.

Retiring 30 yrs of congressional service. Honorable service. Find 1 time he voted in favor of a pay raise or other under-the-table shananigans. 30 yrs and the message hasn't changed.
Do you consider the military a bunch of paultards. They seem to favor him 'overwhelmingly.' Maybe they just know something you haven't noticed yet. Me personally, I would be hesitant about mocking a battle-hardened man holding an automatic weapon. I can see here a democrat in denial or a corporate money-grubber trying to save his blood money income through unfounded accusations and beratement. I hate to think there are people out there so uninformed to what is actually happening when the facts and data are easily accessible. The nice thing about the truth is it can't be changed. Only obscured or lied about just to surface later.
I would like to opine on the fed being mentioned, there was no economic crisis before the fed. The 1 depression was caused by the switch from the gold standard to federal reserve. This creation created the opportunity to regulate the value of money. Now it can be done on rumors. The gold standard monetary system prevented the abuses being committed by Barry, George and the rest of the DC crime ring that are going on today. A few of you need to open a history book or go back to the DNC and tell them you failed in your defamation.edit on 19-8-2011 by Hillbilly123069 because: (no reason given)
