		<description>wow, this is the guy who helped me unfux my computer so many times back in the days when techtv and g4 were separate entities.

and chris pirillo STILL knows the deal!

anyone unconvinced of ron paul should challenge themselves to find a valid reason not to vote for him.  and remember, this is the internet, why settle for blogger responses when links to source material are everywhere?  look for flip-flopping, pandering, ANYTHING that proves he&#039;s off track.  you will quickly find that paul belittles ALL candidates in honesty and efficiency, and has NEVER voted to curb the rights of americans since the first day he was able to cast a vote.

make your vote informed, do not let the next president simply be the one who sat on television longer.</description>

		<description>When they asked what I would need to vote, I said, &quot;Someone that at least talks from their heart&quot;.  And now I see him, a politician, yet a man of integrity and honesty; Ron Paul.</description>

		<description>My basic Ron Paul hate letter:

Ron Paul is first and foremost a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Ron Paul is a mass hypnotist preying on lemming-like non-thinkers. He’s Jim Jones. He’s David Koresh. He’s the Pied Piper. Paul puts on a good anti Iraq occupation face while defending U.S. militarism in general .He seems ignorant of the fact that there is just another in that long linage of U.S. Salvadorian option dirty tricks going on in Iraq. 

Far worse, Ron Paul talks as though 9/11 was a legit event. It wasn’t. No planes were hijacked on 9-11-2001.And, no planes were flown into any buildings on 9-11-2001.The entire 19 Arab hijacker story is an absurd fairy tale. Those warnings that he considers gospel were just as phony as the rest of the black-OP false flag farce now known as 9/11.

The best two word description of Ron Paul is “Libertarian Looney”. The second best two word description of Ron Paul is “Economic Anarchist”. 

There are people and there are resources. For certain, this is a mutual point of departure you and I can agree upon. One of the core reasons groups or a population of people characterized by shared cultural or geographic bonds develop societies is to provide for their common good by their collective doling out of the blessings of the wealth and resources of the realm in which they live with some reasonable facsimile of egalitarianism. 

This is one of several things libertarians and kindred non-thinkers such as Ron Paul don’t seem to be able to understand. Government is the apparatus by which and through which that sharing and cooperating is brought about. The government is the people. It is the people promulgating this sharing and cooperating for common good. Government is the people working as in one accord for the common good of their society. There is nothing neither inherently good about small government nor inherently bad about big government. 

Do we need to maintain and defend this lame-brained capitalist system in which only a few share the preponderance of the benefits of the resources of the land?? Rather, and to be more precise, do we move toward (revolution) a far more sensible sharing and cooperating modus operandi in which the people allocate those resources with a rational even-handed approach to assure that resources benefit all. 

For crying out loud, these days in the U.S. year by year one trillion dollars migrates from the poorest 96 million households to the wealthiest 13 thousand households. With a 12.5 trillion dollar GNP ask yourself the question: how much longer can we hang on to this capitalist insanity? Our friend Ron Paul is only concerned with the well being of those wealthiest 13 thousand households, and if you understand his philosophy (he’s an economic anarchist)-which you apparently don’t- Paul’s repugnant ideology proves just this. You’ve been duped. Ron Paul’s presidential aspirations don’t deserve your support or anyone else’s. Paul’s flapdoodle pro-military anti-proletarian stance on almost every issue only seeks to accelerate this already tsunami-like surge of wealth from the masses to the few, the rich, and the powerful. 

Free market capitalism is madness and must be eliminated from the face of the earth. Free market capitalism is economic anarchy by definition .America and the world needs Marxist-Leninist-Maoist communist revolution. 

Markets only benefit those who control them. A society does not survive (and ours is not) unless this control by the few of those markets is harnessed .All the things you’re unjustly complaining about the government ignores the fact that government is a proxy of the people acting in cooperation and sharing in the people’s quest to reign in the monopolizing of the benefits of the resources of the land by that aforementioned few, rich, and powerful. Without such a holding of sway, on the economic side of things ,we will not survive - period. 

Every penny spent on national defense throughout our nation’s entire history is fraudulent and farcical. Every bullet fired by the U.S. military throughout it’s entire history is a fraud. All of history’s U.S foreign aggression consists of pirating and racketeering purposed with stealing the resources of other nations following a season of demonizing lies against any head of state that isn’t content with their nation’s being a client state serving predatory global capitalism and criminal finance oligarchs. 

All right, I feel you might want to ask ‘what about the hallowed WWII’? Didn’t we save the world from Hitler? Fact is that if the U.S. hadn’t been enticed by Zionist to enter the First World War, there would not have even so much as been a WWII. We should blame Zionist influences, B’nai Brith, and the Rothshields for the Balfore connected underhanded under the table Zionist dealings that led to America’s entering that European war now known as WWI. Germany and England were primed to end WWI under conditions equitable to both sides. The blatant unfairness of the Treaty of Versailles coupled with the fact that the Jewish bankers were conspiring to shrink the Deutsch Mark to oblivion set the stage. Brown Brothers Harriman, Fritz Thyssen, Samuel Prescott Bush (great grandfather of current U.S. President George W. Bush), the Rothshields -of course- and other western finance criminals helped fund the Third Reich into power. WWII was not a war involving the Allies vs. the Axis powers. Rather it was the Illuminati vs. the people of the earth with proletarian killing proletarian to the tune of 55 million deaths. Then comes Britton Woods and the U.S. perfidious Albion was born foreboding the death of the human species unless we somehow reverse this capitalist imperialist American Exceptionalist foolhardiness. 

“The first casualty when war comes is truth”. ~ Hiram W.  Johnson 
“History is written by the winners”. ~ Alex Haley 


The U.S. has a friendly neighbor to the north, a friendly neighbor to the south, and vast oceans to the east and west.  There is no justifiable reason for the United States of America to even have a standing army. In fact Jefferson and Madison urged early on that we not. They were ignored. All support of U.S. military aggression can be chalked up to ignorance, racism, xenophobia, and ignorant worship of the Golden Calf “City on a Hill” U.S. of A. myth paradigm.

		<description>What does Ron Paul believe in?

Every Federal agency that regulates anything must be eliminated. There should not be any EPA, FDA, OSHA, FEC, etc. If the states want to do something, fine. If one state does and another doesn&#039;t, oh well. Don&#039;t worry, the polluted air and water will stop right at the border. Or maybe someone can sue. Or maybe they can&#039;t. 

All Federal social programs must be eliminated. If the states want one, fine. But of course it&#039;s rather obvious what would happen to most state programs with no Federal funding. 

So the question for all of you fanatical Ron Paul supporters is simple. What can the federal government do in Ron Paul&#039;s worldview?

BikerBill says that

&lt;blockquote&gt;At the very least, the 10th Amendment says that such authorities fall to the individual petri dishes of liberty, the states, to handle as they see fit, if to government at all.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

We are talking about the petri dishes of liberty that had Jim Crow laws until forced to abandon them by that source of all evil, the Federal government, aren&#039;t we? The ones whose state police in several proven cases and God knows how many unknown ones actually conspired to commit race based murders or at least refuse to go after the murderers? The states that until the vile Supreme Court said they couldn&#039;t outlawed contraception in some states? The ones that had Blue Laws that said that stores couldn&#039;t operate on Sunday and lied about their reasoning when it was pointed out that there was this Church and State problem? Those bastions of liberty?

Why is Ron Paul so popular? Because so many Americans know nothing about history. Not really. You&#039;ve got lots of people who think they know what the Constitution is about and why but have not a clue about how to put it in context.

It&#039;s the 21st Century, folks. Not the 18th or 19th. If every change requires a Constitutional amendment we might as well fold our tent as a nation now.</description>

		<description>Wow, no wonder people hate him. I have to really take a look at his platform now. I realize that&#039;s TOTALLY out of Vogue, but I also think it&#039;s about time we stopped running the country like a rich kid&#039;s popularity contest, no matter what party you like today.</description>

		<description>Ron Paul is first politician that has excioted me in my entire adult life. America is in desparate need of an honest leader and he is the only one who can boast such. In regards to lunabeans comments I&#039;d advise that he look at the reasons Paul voted as he did on the items listed. Regardless of his personal views on any issue his priority, and the basis for his decisions is the role of the federal government and the constitutional limits placed on it. His view is that the Constitution allows the Fed a very narrow and defined authority and has no business regulating or funding any of thise things. Read the Constitution and you&#039;ll find he is right.</description>

		<description>I just received the following email from MoveOn and they say all the Republicans in the race would just be George Bush – Act II. 

My question is, after looking at the pitiful performance by the newly elected congressional Democrats, why would anybody in their right mind vote for one of them either, let alone another Bushie?

If you truly want this country to change course – 

GET OUT AND WORK FOR RON PAUL
-------------------------------
Dear MoveOn member,

What would a third Bush term look like? Endless war in Iraq, continued torture and spying, more ultra-conservative judges, more and more people without health care, and so on ... it&#039;d be awful. 

But that&#039;s impossible, right? Well, maybe not. Every Republican candidate for president is trying to distinguish himself from Bush, but the major candidates*  would carry forward Bush&#039;s core agenda:

·President Giuliani would support a second escalation of the war in Iraq. 
·President Romney would double the size of the Guantanamo Bay prison.
·President McCain would bomb, bomb, bomb Iran.
·President Fred Thompson would have offered Scooter Libby a full pardon.

We can make sure the Bush era ends in 2008. But it means starting now, not next year: building strength in key neighborhoods, creating cutting-edge tools for volunteers, and designing the most sophisticated voter turnout effort progressives have ever run. 
-----------------------------------------------------
* Ron Paul is first in many of the polls and is third in fundraising.</description>
