Ron Paul Does it Again.... proves the American voters love the path their nation is on.

David Hussey 2012/05/09 06:55:37
I'm curious, I hear nothing but bitching from people on the right about how bad the President is, had eight years of listening to those on the right moaning about the horrors of the previous President. Seeing as the candidates put forth by both establishment parties are always minor variations of the same old Wall St\Pentagon agenda, why is it when someone who actually advocates something different comes along the masses do nothing but invest their energy in misrepresenting and denigrating them?

    Everyone says they support change but did we really get change from Obama? His supporters will say he delivered but willingly choose to ignore basic facts like how he never voted against Bush when Obama was a US Senator but instead voted for everything Bush wanted including voting many times to pass Bush legislation through cloture... and when Bush didn't have enough Republican support, it was Obama who got him the Democrat votes he needed to pass the legislation.

    In fact, had it not been for Obama, Democrats could have stopped more of what Bush passed in Bushs second term. When you examine Obama and Bush, you actually find that the two supported one another to a point you would think they were in the same political ideological group and there's only one group both fit into based on voting records... the Neocons. We tend to think of Neocons today as Republicans but they began as Democrats and not all of them switched parties which goes a long way to explaining the Bush Democrats because when many Republicans also opposed bush, a certain number of rightwing Democrats made up the difference giving Bush what he wanted and Obama was the lead Democrat doing this.

    But Obama now is once again preaching change as part of his re election campaign?

    But Obama now is once again preaching change as part of his re election campaign?

    Even as President, he continued most Bush era policies including personally leading the fight to preserve the three worst articles in the Patriot Act which he swore to remove and which Republicans didn't even try to stop from expiring.

    Then you have Romney making these outrageous claims everyone knows are lies. He didn't support bailing out GM at all and, in fact, said to let them go bankrupt... yet now he's claiming he supported the bailout and everyone knows that is a blatant untruth.

    In fact, the momentum has been swinging more in Ron Pauls favor as he's the only candidate in the race who served in the military, who actually was a doctor so he understands healthcare, he understands economics and is the most qualified man in the race to be President. He is the only one with any excitement from the military and youth vote and while many Republicans will point out how far behind he is... they made the mistake of supporting a RINO in 2008 learning too late he couldn't win had the Democrats not nominated a candidate... and Mitt Romney, with this need to say these outrageous lies no one expects him to have any need to make, has already revealed the same self destructive behavior that got John McCain defeated.

    Even though he is far behind, Ron Paul is the only candidate who views he is fighting for Americans as Obama is appealing to Democrats by attacking Republicans and Romney is appealing to Republicans by attacking Democrats. Ron is willing to stay in this race and fight to the bitter end while his other opponents dropped out and put their support behind Romney for party unity... with Santorum and others out of the race already beginning to speak that their support was only for party unity and not genuine support for Romney himself.

    If Ron Paul doesn't win the Republican nomination, there's been enough cheating and misrepresentation of the facts by mainstream media to justify Ron running as an Independent and go after both sides as there's enough discontent with both to want both parties that he could actually have a chance to win as an Independent... or at least make it damned interesting.

    Mitt Romney has self destructed several times in the Republican nomination process resulting in Republican voters tossing support behind Rick Santorum in the next states the primarys were held in. That alone should have revealed Romney unfit to represent the Republicans but now, he's telling blatant lies and insiders around him are revealing he's desperately not to slip up and say things that will upset Conservative Republicans... because he's a Liberal Republican lying through his teeth telling Conservatives what they want to hear when the truth is painfully clear... he is not one of them!

    Ron Paul is more of a Conservative than Romney and he's more successful than Romney with Romney having left office as Governor of Massachusetts as one of the most unpopular Governors they ever had... just one term and that makes him Presidential material ROFLIMAO. It sho' nuff does because Romney's revealing Obama will defeat him because Romney will give Obama the election out of sheer stupidity.

    It's not too late to vote for Ron Paul... but if Mitt Romney becomes the Republican nominee, it is very clear from his recent behavior that there's no way he can win because he's making the same mistakes as McCain did or maybe, he's even worse than McCain!

    Thereis momentum for Paul, but against the entrenched partisan mentality, there is no chance he will win the nomination. And if he does, it will give Obama an even greater victory than Romney would provide. The simple fact is that people quiver in fear at the notion of trying something different. They want the status quo, with a little icing for themselves added on top.

    Typical "If A equals B, then A equals C too" [ill] logic.

    How the author of this topic question comes up with this assumption [that Ron Paul proves that American voters love the path Obama is taking us on] is ludicrous. If anything, the reverse is true. At least as far as Obama's government spending and forcing taxpayers to foot the bill for Planned Parenthood abortions [Paul is diametrically opposed to Obama]. Though Paul is a lot closer to Obama's anti-American agendas on illegal immigration than is Mitt Romney. See:

    The author of this topic question merely took a question in which I was unable to comment due to an intellectual coward's block and turned it around.

    My point tncdel is that between Romney and Obama there is not much to distinguish them. Sure, their rhetoric carries the requisite partisan talking points, but the core policy agenda put forth is the same tired one that has been drivern through many administrations. Of all the candidates, Paul is the only one who actually advocates a departure from that agenda, therefore those who would choose to vote for either Obama or Romney are expressing their desire to continue down the same old path

    What else is to be expected in a nation where consuming oxygen and taking up space are the primary voting requirements, especially when the consuming oxygen rule is ignored in many cases.

    Sorry U-Dog, I have to hi-jack your post to reply to someone else who likes to spew out lies. I see "CrackHead" TNCDEL is still spewing out the same garbage on illegal immigration and Ron Paul as he did months ago after I schooled his ass and he blocked me like the CHILD he is.
    RON PAUL IS THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE OF OBAMA ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. Can your glazed over eyes READ THIS TNCDEL?

    This is why voting doesn't work and never will work again. People are dumb as hell. We can take the country back but, not by voting.
