bush signed more executive orders than all the past presidents combined. How is that a "congress" thing? And do you know what they are? The real nasty stuff allcame through congress. Iraq, Afghanistan, tax breaks for the rich, patriot act. Ironically, bushes executive orders mimicked Ron Paul: less regulation, etc. You should consider taking some pol science classes at the U. I'm not being a dick, im serious -- you sound interested.

Actually, kev, most of the bad things from the Bush era came from congress. Like I said, Ron paul's veto would be interesting, but not at the cost of regulating wall street. And his veto couldn't undo existing damage.

Heres the deal guys and gals. If you vote for Perry, Romney, Bachmann, Newt or Obama.....NOTHING WILL CHANGE. IT WILL BE THE SAME OR SHIT, THE SAME STATUS QUO. It is utterly disturbing that you are not getting this. Do you think by voting for Obama again that we as a people will be better off? Wake the fuck up. I believe it is time to move in an entirely different direction. Sarcastic reply from Rob in 3......2.....1 Hi Kev, I'll give you a non-sarcastic reply, but just one. a) if Ron Paul is elected, lots of BAD change will happen. EPA, etc. In fact, pretty much the only new control he'll have is to do bad things (i.e. abolish the FDA). He won't have any new power to change existing legislation, other than veto power I guess, but even then against a united congress he is impotent. b) he's already part of the establishment. I'm not impressed with his voting record, and am offended by his previous conduct. I understand that you aren't, but I am. c) If he REALLY wants to change things, he should focus on gaining power in the congress. He should move to the Senate. He should recruit others. Remember what the Republicans in the 90's did behind Newt Gingrich? Moving to president isn't going to give him much control to "Abolish the fed" and all of these other things that turn you on. d) so in the end, you get all of the BAD parts of Ron Paul (the parts he has the power to change i.e. EPA, FDA) and none of the good parts (because he can't just change legislation and his veto would probably would get defeated by a united congress on anything important). I mean, i suppose there would be some other benefits because some of his ideas would hold congress in check I guess, but it's not worth abolishing the EPA and FTC and FDA...) e)Look how unified the establishment is against him. You think they'll have any trouble over-riding a veto? And even if they can't over ride any of his vetos, he can't just erase existing laws. So again, all of the BAD paul, and none of the good. f) so if you think he's really going to change anything either, you're being pretty naive. This game has been over for a long time. Ron Paul is part of the enemy, and he's using honey to attract honest people like you, but he's a Republican, kevbone. He voted to go to war in Afganistan. He's been in congress for a while now. Look at his record. If he really wanted to change things, he's gonna fail because the guy just can't get anyone onto his side because of the crazy-ass shit that comes out of his mouth when nobody is looking. Sorry, kev, but you'll never get my love of Ron Paul, because I see through the charade. I agree with you though that Obama won't fix anything. But I'm hoping he will at least do less damage than whoever the Republicans offer up. The EPA and the FDA and FTC et.al. are flawed, but they do A LOT more good than nothing.

I love it when anarchists cherry-pick quotes from non-anarchists to try and prove their point. It's like an atheist quoting the pope. Are you sure you're not kevbone?

One day I'm gonna start my own newsletter and hire people to ghostwrite it for 12 years and then later claim that I had no idea what people were writing on the letters that I put my signature on.

And Obama prefers Run DMC.
-
Ron Paul prefers Sammy Hagar to DLR.

+1 for Snohomish. If you're gonna live away from Seattle to be close to climbing, snoho is way better than Issaquah. I have a house for rent there, pm me. Snohomish -- as close as you can get to Index without having toothless neighbors.

This guy is my new favorite troll. Anyone that makes fun of kevbone is OK is my book. Nice work, vulture!
-
Why would you want to live in Issaquah when you will work downtown? Do you love driving or something?
-
I think it's funny that both Bush's were only elected to one term, each.

I'm sure this sort of thing is rough on the kids, but it could be worse, Paul. I mean, at least your kids still have two parents. Imagine how much worse it would be if they had a mother who refused to see them? Hopefully, you're able to reign her in a bit, and things can normalize.
-
I bet you would. I really would. My respect for you would increase exponentially. I have a hard time respecting religions, be it Christianity or Ron Paul.

Nah, recognizing that your political choice is "expedient" but "not perfect" is a good first step, bone. It's your seemingly religious devotion to Ron Paul, and your seeming refusal to accept ANY negative criticism of him that bothers me. How so? I don't think he is god (like you do of Obama), he is just a man who says things I agree with more than the other guy? How is that different than your guy? I'm curious why you think I like Obama so much, especially when I criticize him so much. Your reading comprehension sucks, bone. You should stop smoking as much pot. Meanwhile, you and Bill pretty much offer up a rebuttal to any single criticism posted about Paul. I'd LOVE you hear you say something negative about him. Are you capable? That's why the two are different. I don't actually like Obama. I think he's a piece of shit politician, just like the rest of them (including Paul). Meanwhile, you think Paul is going to single-handedly save America, or something.
