I hope I don't lose friends over this, but I feel I have to say it. I think most here want to see honest voters who want to change from the same old worn out politicians' actions to a person of honesty and integrity, a person who knows and believes in the Constitution, a person who favors small government, a person who hears them when they speak.
I believe that Ron Paul and Gary Johnson supporters are just that sort of voters. I believe those putting them down are practicing the same oppressive attitudes as the Progressives do. I believe MOST people on the right are as honorable as they know how to be. And I believe they want to vote on principle rather than to merely unseat someone, even someone as evil as Obama. I believe any candidate from the Democrat Party or the Republican Party will probably disappoint most of us.
Do all of us want to see Obama unseated? YES, of course we do! Do we want to display our own principles when we do it? Yes, we do. Can we do that if we are trying to tell others (others who agree with us on most issues) who to vote for, who not to vote for? I understand calling the enemy names. I have a harder time understanding calling erstwhile friends names if they are determined to vote on principle rather than just a way of getting rid of O...

I don't think there is a pot here who should be calling the kettle black. SOMEWHERE along the way we have to stand on principle, which is hard enough to do, but to have friends belittle you for standing on the very principle they themselves find attractive is very discouraging. And it makes one wonder exactly who really supports principled living.

The economy and jobs will get back headed in the right direction.
All businesses are waiting to see him kicked to the curb before they will make ANY plans to expand or hire.
As long as RP votes or Johnson votes don't hand it right back to the mack daddy we will see VAST improvement,
Don't you realize what will happen if barry is re-elected ??
I don't even want to think about THAT.
He is afraid of communists, he appeases terrorists.
He wants to legalize heroin.
Yea he's BRILLIANT !
Actually he doesn't want anyone to have Nukes:
Besides Israel is quite capable of decisively handling the Nuke issue themselves. They have proven this vs Iraq and it is their backyard anyways.
How is he afraid? How does he appease? I think you are confused, I have never know him to have the opportunity to appease anything even remotely resembling a terrorist. Could you cite something for both?
He wishes to end the Drug war and leave the legalities of drugs up to the States, as that is actually a State issue and not the place of the Fed Gov.
You are correct, he IS brilliant. Oromney can't even hold a candle to this man's intellect.
Ron paul
That is no better than Germany back in 30s.
Were you asleep for Iraq? Or did you forget the lie that was fed to everyone? eg Rumors and hearsay.
And what about Libya, Somalia, Yemen? Soon to be Syria and Iran and we are still in Afghanistan while Osama is long since been dead.
Should the world wait to declare until we have conquered the entire region or should they preemptively strike before we are done killing brown people?
I don't listen to Alex or Coast to Coast, nor do I deflect and cast insults like a left wing nut-job as you do, when my arguments lose like yours are.
Perhaps you should have a seat and reevaluate that which you stand for.
He would be better than barry for sure.
But so would my dog.
as far as drugs he is a crazy man.
I deflected nothing.
He is a putz that has an ego problem.
It is reassuring that he will not go invading other countries without a declaration of war by Congress.
It is reassuring that he will use diplomacy as Reagan did with the Soviets.
Your Dog couldn't do anything even remotely close to running the Office of President, so NO your dog could not.
As far as the drugs go, he was and still is the sanest person in the running. Wasting billions on a failed "Drug War" is what is insane. Leaving the legalities up to the states is not only Constitutional, it is smart.
You deflected everything, then you come back with nothing better than insults. Basically you admit you got nothing.
You have no argument and so you resort to insults as your last stand. How cute.
He is not to be taken seriously.
Trying to talk sense to an RP groupie is like talking to the wall.
But please don't say that Romney is just as bad as the mack daddy.
I know you know better than that.
I have talked with you too much to believe that.
I thought you were a conservative !
Anyone that you vote for that CANNOT win is a vote for Obama.
And THAT is a wasted vote.
Sad but true.
They can't change anything because they won't win, plain and simple.
It saddens me that you feel that way.
From now on let's not talk politics, ok ?
;)
I don't mean to sadden you Dave, I hate that...So yeah we won't talk politics and I need to throw religion in the mix too.
So how's it hangin' LMAO!!
;D
He made it so clinton got 2 terms.
That's what a vote for RP could do.
But who you vote for is none of my business, but I'm just sayin'.
I still love ya man! :)
a little scary.
Besides, out of context it does appear harsh. I am sure something else led up to it.
