kevbone Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 [video:youtube] Of course all the haters will reject simply because I am posting it. Commence with the sarcasm.......3.....2......1 Quote
rob Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 Ron Paul has it right on this topic. That doesn't mean he's not still bat-shit crazy, though. It's an important distinction to make, Kevin. And no, I'm not being sarcastic. Quote
rob Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 P.S. i'm pretty sure on this particular topic you're just preaching to the choir. Quote
kevbone Posted November 23, 2011 Author Posted November 23, 2011 Honestly, it is an important awareness to raise. Thinking that we were attacked simply because we are a free people is total lunacy and very fox newsish...... Quote
kevbone Posted November 23, 2011 Author Posted November 23, 2011 P.S. i'm pretty sure on this particular topic you're just preaching to the choir. Really? Lets hear what KKKKK or fairweather have to say on the subject. Quote

Phil K Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 Well, the video does have a point (along with lots of dead bodies,) and at least Ron Paul is willing to state the honest truth about the way our effed up foreign policy/ military adventures turned around to bit us in the hinders. Rick Santorum's head looked like it was about to explode and spread a frothy mix of brains etc. all over the place. However, being less crazy than Rick Santorum is hardly a ringing endorsement of one's qualifications for POTUS. Quote

tvashtarkatena Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 They're they guys who came up with the bright idea of re-fighting the Vietnam War to bring the message to the world that America is BACK! Basically, they're the political equivalent of a post-got-dumped stalker. Quote
rob Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 Kev do you even know what a Neocon is? Do you? Yeah, and im still waiting on your definition of Marxism and fascism. How can you know if the fed is really social Marxism and cultural fascism without knowing what that means? Quote
G-spotter Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 Kevbone, can you ever answer a question without using another question? Yes or no. Pick one. Quote
Pete_H Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 Ron Paul is the answer to all your questions. Quote
billcoe Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 He can sum up his philosophy in a paragraph: "[The Washington Establishment] believes that if you have the freedom to keep what you earn and take care of yourself, you won't do it. They want to do it for you -- and they've been trying for the past 70 years, since the Great Depression. But we've learned that government can't do it, either." On an even more basic level, it would be nice to believe that people can take care of themselves without government help, but it just hasn't proved true in the past: Programs like Social Security and Medicare -- programs which run directly against America's Jeffersonian/libertarian tradition -- were necessary because people couldn't take care of themselves. The elderly, especially, had trouble paying medical bills after their working days ended. The American people, through our government, decided to make a very rudimentary deal: to make sure that our parents didn't starve or sleep in the streets or were unable to get medical care. There was nothing unconstitutional about that -- just as there's nothing unconstitutional about requiring people to have medical insurance now. The deal was made with the consent of the governed. In the real world, these are the most popular programs the government offers -- about 80% of the American people are happy with them. http://news.yahoo.com/12-days-till-iowa-ron-paul-not-politician-105500522.html Cue racist charges and race baiting posts....3...2...1...

E-rock Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 I really liked the narrator. His accent made me want to listen to what he had to say. Kevbone, how do you feel about Ron Paul's racist skeletons in his closet? He used to have some not very nice things to say abou the blacks. Quote

Kevbone, how do you feel about Ron Paul's racist skeletons in his closet? He used to have some not very nice things to say abou the blacks. I have read nothing to indicate he has racist skeletons. But I usually don't go on what people say (like Obama, he lost me along time ago)....only on what they do. Actions speak louder than words. Quote

Do you only get your news from youtube? everyone else knows more about Paul than you do Quote

tvashtarkatena Posted December 22, 2011 Posted December 22, 2011 Here ya go, Bone. It's even in a reputable magazine: Piece about Pauls racist newsletters in the Atlantic It's fine to worship a candidate (naive, but do what ya need to), but it helps to know at least a little about them, too. The 'racist remark' story is everywhere right now. Even Bubble Boy knows about it. Try reading a newspaper, any newspaper, sometime. Quote
