Young people who vote and work for Ron Paul are dumber than a sack of hammers. He's a "libertarian" who thinks abortion should be illegal and gay marriage is immoral. He's nothing more than Michele Bachmann who wants to put us on the gold standard and eliminate the FDA and the EPA.

Give him a break. He probably didn't know his uncle was running until after he wrote the first draft.

Those are outstanding credentials! I shall pay very close attention to his recommendation. Very close indeed.

Well I hope Rick shames him with how this would make little Gabriel feel.

He's nothing more than Michele Bachmann who wants to put us on the gold standard and eliminate the FDA and the EPA. thinks the federal government has become entirely too powerful and thinks most federal laws should be handled individually by the states instead.

I read some interview with Santorum's daughter last night and, at the risk of sounding mean, she sounded dumber than a rock. The anti-gay stuff was especially odd. It boiled down to, "I have plenty of gay friends and they're opposed to gay marriage too, because it would destroy our moral foundation," etc.

I guess Ron Paul is technically preferable to Rick, but my point is that the entire Santorum clan seems rather stupid or at least disconnected from reality. I've had bigoted, dumb people in my own family, so I tried giving his relatives the benefit of the doubt, but I guess that'll be the end of that.

Formal slavery has been eliminated, but (as anyone who works from nine to five can testify) the idea that you can alienate your liberty, at least temporarily, endures. In fact, it determines what most of us have to do for most of our waking hours, except, usually, on weekends. The violence has been largely pushed out of sight. But this is largely because we're no longer able to imagine what a world based on social arrangements that did not require the continual threat of tasers and surveillance cameras would even look like.
Vote Ron Paul if you declare yourself a "libertarian" but approve of this.
 
2012-01-03 08:44:30 PM
If you paultards think that RON PAUL is gonna let you smoke all the pot, you're kidding yourselves.

Yeah... That sounds nice until you remember that he thinks the Civil Rights Act was a bad idea and that we should've left racial equality to the very same states and people who dousing blacks with fire hoses.

Or that he claimed local charities would fill the void if we got rid of Medicare and Medicaid.

Huh, I have never heard RON PAUL say he thinks states should enforce federal law.

By what mechanism would this happen? The magic hand of the free market?

I'm voting Ron Paul because I love slavery. I also love drinking and driving with my slaves in the back of the car. When i get pulled over i just blame it on the slaves. Because the slaves don't care.

If our political and legal ideas really are founded on the logic of slavery, then how did we ever eliminate slavery?

Of course, a cynic might argue that we haven't; we've just relabeled it. The cynic would have a point: an ancient Greek would certainly have seen the distinction between a slave and an indebted wage laborer as, at best, a legalistic nicety.

Still, even the elimination of formal chattel slavery has to be considered a remarkable achievement, and it is worthwhile to wonder how it was accomplished. Especially since it was not just accomplished once. The truly remarkable thing, if one consults the historical record, is that slavery has been eliminated-or effectively eliminated-many times in human history.

In Europe, for instance, the institution largely vanished in the centuries following the collapse of the Roman empire--an historical achievement rarely recognized by those of us used to referring to these events as the beginning of " the Dark Ages . " No one is quite sure how it happened. Most agree that the spread of Christianity must have had something to do with it, but that can't have been the direct cause, since the Church itself was never explicitly opposed to the institution and in many cases defended it. Instead, the abolition appears to have happened despite the attitudes of both the intellectuals and the political authorities of the time. Yet it did happen, and it had lasting effects.

On the popular level, slavery remained so universally detested that even a thousand years later, when European merchants started trying to revive the trade, they discovered that their compatriots would not countenance slaveholding in their own countries-one reason why planters were eventually obliged to acquire their slaves in Africa and set up plantations in the New World. It is one of the great ironies of history that modern racism-probably the single greatest evil of our last two centuries-had to be invented largely because Europeans continued to refuse to listen to the arguments of the intellectuals and jurists and did not accept that anyone they believed to be a full and equal human being could ever be justifiably enslaved.

Ron Paul has done a great job of smeaing himself. Aside from selling racist newsletters, let's not forget that he's anti-civil rights and wants to put the country on the gold standard for no apparent reason.

It didn't actually disappear during the Middle Ages, it morphed into the peasant/lord or serf/master relationship.

And historically, Roman slaves were more free than the average European peasant in the middle part of the middle ages.

Yeah, most of them are way too self absorbed to see beyond the big-buzz policies like de-criminalizing pot or whatever happens to be their current cause du jour to comprehend the real agenda.
