Kettle, meet pot.

Always start the day with a Guinness Draft. Like I say, beer, it’s not just for breakfast anymore.

…you do have a way with words.

In 2000, people overlooked the fact that an incumbent governor from Tejas was funding public schools with taxes on strip clubs and that for the most part, his view on government was what he implemented. Lazy public, lazy press.

And face it, anyone claiming to be a Libertarian today, is only an embarrassed Republican (I know, it almost seems impossible to believe) who’s embarrassed at the latest Bush (too much inbreeding in that family). If they were true Libertarian, then they’d do exactly what Molly Ivins and Henry Gonzalez said. . . . first they’d start by removing all the stop signs since that is government interference with people’s rights.

That being said, just because Dr. Paul accepted the donation, it DOES NOT mean that Dr. Paul is a racist.

As far as his voting record– from what I can tell, his sole yardstick has been whether the bills can be justified under the Constitution. If they can be justified, he votes for it. If not, he votes no.
I’m happy he’s at least reading the bills– most politicians don’t have a clue what they are voting for.
If you look at his whole voting record and see the pattern of his votes (and read the bills he’s voting on), you’ll see that he is EXTREMELY consistent.

Yes, he’s religious– but he doesn’t IMPOSE his religious beliefs onto anyone else.
Can you say the same about ANY other candidate?

As for me, his constitutional stance and voting record are secondary. What got my attention was that he made sense as to why the attacks on 9/11 happened, and that he was able to back up his statement with the 9/11 Commission Report and testimony from the former head of the CIA’s Osama bin Laden Unit.

There are some points of Dr Paul’s platform that I don’t agree with— but I don’t think that my liking SOME of his platform makes me a kook or a racist.

Of course, your opinion may vary.

Thanks, and please do come back. I wish I could take all the credit, but the fact is that a lot of people out there have been hard at work on the Paul phenomenon and I’m simply drawing on their expertise.

The part that was truly mine was the attitude…

In the end Ron Paul, is the Ross Perot of 2008 (can’t wait for the pie charts from Dr. No).

Texas sure turns out some nuts (to be expected since the clock hands go in reverse). We ought to give it back to Mexico and say we’re sorry, but it wasn’t what we expected when we stole it.

Under the civil rights section, he voted not to allow marriage to be defined as being between a man and a woman. Hmm strange that you didnt include this one. Let me guess why. Because it destroys your silly argument that he is a religious wacko who is on the side of the religious right. What it shows is he is pro-constitution and does not want the fed involved in the bedroom, let alone the doctors office.

Under education he voted no to allow prayer in school during the war on terror. This wasnt included because it flew in the face of his 1997 support of a constituional amedment. You see again, his point is follow the constitution. If you want prayer in school amend the constitution and make 3/4 of the states ratify it. He is merely consistent.

I could go on and on. The voting record vindicates my position. He has a mixed record in nearly every category because he only votes based on what he views the role of government should be.

Be well!

You’re wonderful! I was trying to articulate to friends, recently, why Ron Paul and his (libertarian mostly) supporters are scary–now I just have to direct them to this site. Paul’s bad but his followers are myopic nutters.

Now that I’ve found this site, I’ll be back.

Oh btw, I shocked, shocked I say, by this:
Ron Paul supporters blame “Jewish Cabal” for anti-Semitism charges

Did you bother to click on the (Source) link at the bottom of the list of votes? That’s the source for all of the above. So bitch at Slammy if you want, but if you don’t buy his contentions, the problem is with the website Issues2000.org, not Slammy. Oh, and here’s the link again, just in case you missed it again: http://www.issues2000.org/TX/Ron_Paul.htm

BTW, if you don’t believe issues2000.org, then click on the “N full quotes on…” link above each list of position that Paul took – they quote his words on each issue or the exact language he voted for or against.

The real Truth about Paul’s a bitch, isn’t it?

I’m surprised none of these people have seized on the possibility that I’m trying to undermine Paul because I’m running against him….

It is the reason why people used to (and still do) form co-operatives, societies, clubs, partnerships and alliances.

Having followed the posts on this site for a while…the last thing Dr Slammy is is a liar.

mock my views, think i’m a loon, just don’t question my integrity.
