    First of all you are wrong!

    I took a screen shot of the headline I answered

    (click to enlarge)
    Liberty  Truth  Ron Paul

    Ron Paul is not a "Former Candidate" unless you are referring to the Republican party's grave mistake of election 2008.

    Ron Paul is currently a presidential candidate for election 2012. The only problem we have as a country is letting the main stream media elect our leaders for us.

    Why did they "black out" the "Campaign for Liberty" when they were clearly gaining more support than douche bag Romney?

    You didn't see this on TV did you?

    leaders black campaign liberty gaining support douche bag romney tv

    You didn't see this either.



    I hope Ron Paul pulls off a coup at the convention. Romney and Obama are both puppets of the NWO and the bankers, they offer no solutions to the problems we face as a country, they are both BS artists.

    Ron Paul tells you the truth and has the solutions. He can "lead by example" and wants America to do the same.



    Liberty  Truth  Ron Paul

    Careful, some of those "paper pushers" are actually working in your favor. Backing a "single issue" canididate is very dangerous. This man's foreign policy is draconian and his extremes in many areas is shocking.

    Ron Paul should be the nominee, and should refuse any other position if it were to be under RINO Romney. I believe RP has such Principle.

    Yes, Ron Paul is a quitter and I am glad he is. Good to see his disciples in full denial.


    I don't like to stifle free speech but I want to see all the Ron Paul idiots have aneurysms when he is not allowed to speak.



    He can have his own convention at the Ramada and his drones can have an 'I hate Israel' gay orgy in the hot tub.


    Gotta remember never to stay at the Ramada.

    So you prefer Israel being our bitch? They should do what their handlers direct, because we supply them money and weapons, and over ten times as much money to their enemies?

    If you want to make claims... support them!

    Ron Paul wants to cease foreign aid to all of the nations, and allow Israel to operate as a sovereign nation. They have an estimated 300 nuclear delivery systems, and as Netanyahu reminded America... "We don't need your nation building here, we are already a nation."

    Please perform your due-diligence? You are spreading false and dis-proven propaganda.

    Moreover, Israel's economy is better than our own.

    We have a strategic alliance with Israel. However, America first!

    Ron Paul is not a anti- Semite..He basically believes that no nation should receive foreign aid!! His foreign policy is miscontrued as well..We do too much meddling and we can not have troops in a 130 nations with a 16 trillion national debt!?? I mean why do we have troops in Europe when they can defend themselves?

    I do believe charity begins at home, but our foreign assistance amounts to $28 billion a year, 1% of our total budget. Most of it is given to governments for their defense, as with Egypt who get $1 billion directly to their military. I called Paul an anti-semite because of his views on Israel. If you're not pro-Israel, you're anti-Jew, can we agree on that? We've given Pakistan $19 Billion since 9/11, what a waste. They were knowingly harboring bin laden practically the whole time. I don't agree we should close all our bases around the world, as in Germany, Japan, Saudi Arabia, etc., and now we'll have a permanent 5,000+ acre Bagram AirBase in U.S. hands permanently. They're all prime real estate, including Guantanamo as well.

    Excuse me? An anti-semite? Why? Because he says we shouldn't give aide to ANYONE? Also, he is right about not meddling in other countries affairs. Why did we depose a democratically voted in President and put The Sha in power? Because it suited our needs at the time.

    Ron Paul dislikes banksters. If you look into it for yourself and find that they are Jewish, than maybe you are right... but I still wouldn't think its a reflection of bigotry against a people or antisemitism...

    ....and there is a big difference between being isolationist (what you said) and non-interventionist (what I meant) ... for some reason we are one of the highest debt to income countries in the world yet we keep thinking its our job to be banker in the monopoly game.

    No... Ron Paul runs his campaign like he would our country... without going in to debt. Care to prove anything you assert? You never do, so I won't hold my breath.

    Like your Avatar, you are a fine representative of political buffoonery.

    16 trillion dollars in debt! Apparently, that is what you stand for and wish to increase.

    Since you have brought nothing of merit to the discussion, you are merely a barking dog.

    Ron Paul is a loser and I love to laugh at his drones.

    Will you join the 'I hate Israel' gay orgy during the convention or organize a mass suicide pact among the Paulians?

    Either way just do it far away from the rest of civilized society.

    That's more like it! Now, you are sounding like the Right Wing Nut Job you are queer for!

    Still clamoring for the "Keep Israel our Bitch" mantra?

    They're a sovereign nation with an estimated 300 multiple nuclear delivery systems, and a full compliment of satellite and AWACS support from America, under our mutual strategic alliance.

    Our failed foreign policy gives 10 times the foreign aid to Israels enemies, than we do for Israel.

    You are clearly as misinformed and Israel first as your idol?

    America first... then others!

    Is Israel has the most powerful lobby mechanism in congress, and more Jews live in America than in Israel... with open checkbooks.

    You really don't know anything about Ron Paul, do you?

    I have yet to see the source of Paul's claim, and breakdown of how he arrived at that delusion.
    Fancy posters and a simple list don't mean squat.
    What I posted above came from the OpenSecrets website months ago where they explain the methodology of their results.

    As far as Paulie serving in the military, he never went overseas much less saw any combat.
    He stayed safe stateside and performed physicals on those who were headed overseas before becoming an infant quarterback and literally 'delivered the votes' in his district..

    Paul did not carry pro war signs in college then run away to France preaching "Mormonism" hiding behind 4 deferments his daddy's influence helped procure.

    Paul did not run away from a challenge to debate Romney one on one after they were the only two candidates left in the Republican race.

    That would have been a good test to see how Mittens would do against Obama, but after a one on one Paul debate he wouldn't have had to worry about Obama. He would now be toast. Instead he is just "milk toast".

    Paul wasn't kissing Israels ass like Romney was last week either.

    Give it up. Paul's a sniveling whiny pussy who does a good job of yakkin' the yak but when it comes down to getting anything done,... not even Viagra would help the scrawny twerp.

    Riddle me this,... where is Mr. Constitution on 0bozo's ineligibility to hold office?
    Where is his speech on the House floor to get THAT conversation going?
    Where is his formal petition to the SCOTUS to take up the issue in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012,..?

    Seems like the biggest Constitutional crisis that has been perpetrated upon this Nation isn't worth his time? He's not willing to put his career where his blow-hole is?
