What was Ron Paul thinking???

[CSX 4039]

You're right, he isn't what Republicans are, but he is what they were. And you're right, most amerikans are so fuqqin socialist, they would have fought for the British in 1776.
Ron Paul isn't perfect, but he's a lot better than than the other three, who are all on the same team, the CFR... Don't know what that is???

GUBA - Road to Tyranny

Honestly, I would have thought that CC, where people drive cars without airbags, that fly in the face of government regulations, would have been a bastion of libertarianism, but, I can see that the 'nuke the sand nigerians til they glow for your own safety' bull$hit (whereby the banks that fund the arms dealers, and the governments that steal liberty in the name of safety both win) has even taken hold here. It's all right there guys and gals. SB100 and car title problems just scratches the surface. Bend over.
But, you're right. Only 16 delegates get it.
Today.

And so it is, but to many a varying degree. Most Alphas set there own course with a fierce streak of independence so it gets hard to form a group statement on just about anything or anyone. I like Paul, but I also believe he has zero chance of governing if he were elected. As the libertarians figured out long ago...local elections first, Congress second, White House last.

Untrue.

The Republican party was formed prior to the Civil War, and Abraham Lincoln was the first Republican president elected.

Ron Paul is a Constitutionalist, not a Republican. He claims libertarian philosophy, NOT Republican philosophy.

And you're right, most amerikans are so fuqqin socialist, they would have fought for the British in 1776.

Untrue.

Generally, the number of left-leaning socialists in the U.S. is smaller than the number of right-leaning anarchists. Most Americans tend to be more moderate, and are proud to be Americans who would fight for their country rather than against it.

I'll agree with you - and even go further and say that Ron Paul is as far from perfect as a political candidate (even a democrat) can be. ESPECIALLY when he goes 'off the script' and starts talking (or rather 'babbling incoherently') about his screwy philosophies.

Using Alex Jones the conspiracy goofball in conjunction with an endorsement of Ron "D'oh!" Paul seems oddly fitting. Maybe there's a comet out there with both their names on it ...

Why? There's a significant difference between the nutty screwballery of fringe groups like libertarians and groups of automobile enthusiasts. Driving a car without airbags doesn't make one a ralph nader endorsing, ron paul loving, goose stepping thug. Thankfully.

But, you're right. Only 16 delegates get it.

16 out of 1,349, or, roughly 1.1%.

That's an interesting statistic, and I'll tell you why: 1.1% of Americans suffer from some type of serious and debilitating mental illness. Coincidence? I think not...

Your pal,
