So long as we're in fantasy land, can I be in charge of wizardry or the elite armored dragon cavalry?

Can I be judge of the Rose Parade? I'd let in the Hell's Angels to make it more...memorable.

Sorry, Huckabee's in charge of all things made up.

This doesn't really surprise me. I don't think Kucinich would make a very good SecState, though, which is the only Cabinet position that wouldn't place him at odds with Paul.

Any way, while I support Paul, I agree it's unlikely he'll win at this point. He could still grab up enough delegates to have some fun at the convention, though, particularly since he's finally bringing in some campaign people who know what they're doing to help him spend all that money. If his campaign hadn't been so mismanaged, he could have done a lot better.

Ron Paul used to really annoy me, now it's just dated.

I listened to an episode of Alex Jones yesterday (for research). I swear to God, a good 40% of that show is just nutbags calling in to drool over Ron Paul and swear they saw police driving through their neighborhood in a tank shooting every house with a Ron Paul yard sign and arresting babies.

9.99999% of people have never even had the chance to run for president. Ron Paul is doing something right.... twice... Hate on him all you want, he's smarter than you. And me. And he's probably not as big of a douchebag as your candidate.

Other Ron Paul cabinet members:

Alex Jones
Cynthia McKinney
James Traficant
Lyndon LaRouche
Cindy Sheehan

9.99999%? Couldn't you have just rounded to 10?

I am sure Ron Paul is intelligent. I am also sure Michael Behe is intelligent. And David Ray Griffin. And Jim Jones. And Chariman Mao. But their intelligence doesn't make them right. Their arguments must stand alone for themselves, and in my book Ron Paul's arguments are in the same categories as those aforementioned men.

Ah shiat... forgot to post this:



Been saving it for a Ron Paul thread.

Churchill2004: Any way, while I support Paul, I agree it's unlikely he'll win at this point. He could still grab up enough delegates to have some fun at the convention, though,

Hey, the fact that he's been kicking the ass of "Mr. 9/11" so far has made it all worthwhile. Watching the candidate that all the networks were predicting was an easy win only a few months back be beaten by the long-shot they won't even mention is a sweet tasting irony.

(cue "HA HA" guy)

Killer Miller: Other Ron Paul cabinet members:

It couldn't be any worse than what we have right now... and at least that cabinet would have a pretty high entertainment value...

Killer Miller: Other Ron Paul cabinet members

If all you have to throw at Paul is a childish attack that has nothing to do with Ron Paul, I'm encouraged.

Barry Goldwater didn't win either. Doesn't mean his campaign wasn't still a major turning point in American politics.

Churchill2004:

I saw this and I thought of you...



Ron Paul == Ross Perot but less entertaining.

What a choice :

Kucinich has done nothing for "his" district in 11 years .

Combine that with his "ability" to cause City of Cleveland to go bankrupt in his first only 2 year term as mayor and

now on Mrs denny III - half his age - twice his height and in need of a green card and

picture complete

big mouthed , achieve nothing , blame everyone else 62 year old pre teen Joke

Surely Paul can pick a/any name out of phone book and do better .

SemperLieSuckah: Churchill2004:

I imagine so, since you've clearly demonstrated that any pro-Ron Paul argument is the same as the rabid nonsense some Paul supporters put out as far as you're concerned.

I lump it all together as "Ron Paul Crazies". Pretty much any Ron Paul supporter coming to me saying that they are the sensible Ron Paul type gets the same look Scientologists in LA get when they use the same line...

This isn't surprising at all. He's said before he likes Kucinich's stance on foreign policy, and from what I understand Kucinich is a big Civil Liberties guy.

While he is of slight build, he has a certain firey attitude when need be, and a hot wife to boot. Imagine, Russia: "Dude, America, we're so gonna nuke you." Kucinich: "Let's just be cool, and look at my hot redhead wife." Russia: "True dat. Hey, you guys have legalized drugs now right? Mind if we come over? We'll buy the pizza!" Kucinich: "Coo, see ya in a bit." The end.

... Sorry, it's late.

Anyway, Paul can still do better - hell he came in 2nd in Nevada, and he's beating the everloving shiat out of Giuliani thus far. I still think the problem is name recognition, a great deal of people who I talk to have never heard of him.

Ultimately, we very well may have a brokered convention. With Paul's grassroots support, it's entirely possible he could walk away with the nomination at convention.

Yawn, goodnight.

From your profile, you support what you call a "strong foreign policy".

It's too late. If he'd had some people around who knew how to spend that money, he could have been a contender. He didn't, though. I wouldn't be surprised if he picks up a few states (or if he's already won Louisiana), but they'll only be so many delegates left to win after Feb. 5th.

Vicious, vicious bastards. They stop at nothing to defend their right to live in the most inhospitable climate on Earth.

People don't like Ron Paul because they're terrified of what it means if he's right. They're terrified to wake up an realize that they've been getting farked in the ass for forty years by the Crips and Bloods (Dems and GOP). They're terrified to come to terms with the fact that Democracy is a sham, that their rights have been eroded, and that freedom means some people fail. They're terrified to believe that corporations really do own the politicians and the country as a whole.

It's like a rape victim with Stockholm syndrome. Not only do you deny it happened, you have a crush on your attacker.

That's why Ron Paul is unpopular - he tells you the things you don't want to believe. Because if they're true, you'll HAVE to do something about them. Americans are afraid of change and even more afraid of the truth.

Thread over.

Somebod asks Ron Paul if he would want somebody with similiar values to his own if he would want that person in his administration, were he to be elected. Ron Paul says "yes". Orgy of "OMG HE'Z SO CRZY LOLZ" follows from a bunch of twats that ironically complain about how annoying Ron Paul supporters are.

It's not news. It's Fark.

/Where's Schrodinger? Bit late to the party, aren't you?

hej:
/Where's Schrodinger? Bit late to the party, aren't you?

He may be in the 1388+ post thread for his candidate, Barack Obama.

[ctrl-F]

Well, okay, maybe not.

This is the coolest thing I've heard Ron Paul say in a long time. I don't think he realizes how often Kucinich would dig in his heels and bite him in the ass-- especially over religion in government-- but it's a very cool thing to say, anyway.

Gortex: Terrified! Terrified! Terrified!

I'd be terrified that the national budget would consist of only 10 million dollars with: 25% Going to Miss Cleo-Kucinich's Department of UFO Seances. 25% Going towards intelligence in locating the real terrorist threat in the U.S., the sleeper cell of Vinz Clortho, Zuul, Gozer and of course the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man. 25% Going to overturning Roe v. Wade. 25% Going to improving the wagon wheel and other relevant 18th century inventions. But oh how I want to believe.

It's like a rape victim with Stockholm syndrome. Not only do you deny it happened, you have a crush on your attacker. = If that was a metaphor then your talents are weak, but if that was psychic intuition then the force is strong with you because that's actually the back story to how I met my wife. Oddly enough that is also how my mother and father met back in Vietnam.

Honestly though I think Ron Paul is a decent guy but everything seemed to go down hill for me after he walked on water and just before he climbed up on that cross.

You do realize that running the car with the garage door closed is a bad thing, don't you?

Barry Goldwater was also nominated on the GOP ticket and ran in the general election as the GOP candidate.

RP. Uh. Not so much.

When are you Paulies going to realize that a good proportion of America does not want what Ron Paul offers? It's not a question of the media, or a conspiracy, or what have you. It's his policies. 30% reasonable, 70% crazy.

inTheJungle: Barry Goldwater was also nominated on the GOP ticket and ran in the general election as the GOP candidate.

RP. Uh. Not so much.

And I don't think RP's effect will be on the same level as what Goldwater did. He could do for the GOP what Goldwater did for politics as a whole, though. Particularly with the coming implosion of neoconservatism.

inTheJungle: When are you Paulies going to realize that a good proportion of America does not want what Ron Paul offers?

That would make sense if not for the fact that the only people who know what Ron Paul offers are those who get political news online- in other words, about ~20% of people. Given his campaign's massive failure to run an effective ad campaign, and the (not necessarily malicious, but still real) lack of media attention, that only leaves the debates for the other 80%. Ron Paul's failure to win is not indicative of some massive rejection of what he's offering. If that was the case, you wouldn't see the other GOP candidates wrapping themselves up in similar sounding rhetoric on several issues.

churchill2004...

your comments are always worth reading.

-carry on.

Unfortunately, it's a 30% not shared by the rest of the Republican party. Perhaps the "Paulies" want them to include it in future elections.

Personally, I hope there is a brokered convention, and that somehow Paul holds more delegates than the difference between the top two candidates. It would be hilarious to see them try to get his support in order to secure victory

/Though even with such support, if Obama is the candidate, whoever the war-apologist candidate on the Republican side is will probably be defeated. That really sucks for people who like divided government, though.

Good post, now we can all see clearly that you prefer to judge people based off of sterotypes and rumors.

And hot wife areas

Churchill2004:

That's not true. His name recognition is higher than that. Some Paulie gave me the figure in another thread a couple days ago, but it's above 50%.


Given his campaign's massive failure to run an effective ad campaign, and the (not necessarily malicious, but still real) lack of media attention, that only leaves the debates for the other 80%.

Here we go. "It's a conspiracy!" "There's a Fifth Column!"


Ron Paul's failure to win is not indicative of some massive rejection of what he's offering. If that was the case, you wouldn't see the other GOP candidates wrapping themselves up in similar sounding rhetoric on several issues.

Like what? What other GOP candidate is saying any of the following:

End the drug war
Unlimited free trade (but to do that, we need to repeal NAFTA)
Withdraw from the UN
Abolish the Fed
Gold Standard
Immediate closure of all overseas military bases
Immediate retreat from Iraq

The only things that they agree with him on are things like abortion, which RP didn't push them into thinking, they already thought previously.

Face it. RP offers policies that most Americans do not want. That's his problem. Even if I think that a couple of them are reasonable (end the drug war, unlimited free trade), the problem is, most of America doesn't agree with them.

heres an idea, if we dislike ron paul but are unable to find a flaw in his ideals lets just brand him as "crazy."

While were at it lets leave the country on a path towards being the ultimate nanny state, creating unrest with the youth who will ultimately turn in their passports and give their tax revenues to other countries.

It's really the oldest trick in the political book. Use the media to paint a man as "crazy", and his message is also now painted with the same crazy brush. Yet, "the people" continue to fall for it.

Just vote for the guy that you've been told to vote for (or the guy with the best hair) and shut the fark up already.

/baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

bacccc, please go back to Digg and the Ronpaulforums where the rest of the loons will be glad to include you in their circle jerk.

Ron Paul fans are so cute. They keep spending their money and time on a candidate with single digit delegates. He would have realistically dropped out of the race already if it wasn't for them. Bless their hearts.

tyree731: Ron Paul fans are so cute. They keep spending their money and time on a candidate with single digit delegates. He would have realistically dropped out of the race already if it wasn't for them. Bless their hearts.

Yeah! Stupid naive children that believe in democracy! We should all just vote for whichever party we think is going to win anyway!

Serously, say what you will about the internet Paul apostles, but Ron Paul is easily the best republican candidate running.
