Ron Paul 2012!!! Your thoughts on who we should pick for our "Cause"?

[SpasticGramps]

I think a lot of you are naive to think Dr Paul's administration couldnt (unintended-ly) lead to a rise in Corporatism (Mussolini's thoughts).

IMO people are naive to the fact that Corporatism arose in this country a long long time ago. We get to watch it collapse on itself.

Fun times.

Our gov't is corrupt, and nothing can be done about it. Biggest problem is the illusion of choice....u think there is a difference between repubs and dems? Bullshit, politicians think with their wallet, and that is the problem. MONEY MONEY MONEY, what ever happened to politicians who served the people?

if our country defaults on its debt those parks will be liqudated to those who we owe the debt...

i fully expect us to default and then all hell is gonna break lose...

in fact, i expect an entire worldwide economic collapse that will help cleanse a lot of the assholes from govts around the world... too bad it will hurt many people along the way...

Sorry Mr. Buddy R.......

 

[Bluenote]

truly curious as to what you think should be done to help.

The question at this juncture should be more correctly one of is there anything to be done or is it all too far gone?

Here's one that Paul *is* right about , currently and on an everincreasing level the " powers that be" are setting the stage for civil unrest that will make the mid to late '60s look like a day in church..


Start with term limits , eliminate the lobby system completely and require the same sort of work ethic from our elected representatives that they claim we should exhibit...........I could go on for hours on what conceivably *might* help.

What would assuredly help would be the cessation of party oriented politics and a corollary focus on people/country oriented politics.

 

[Bluenote]

By the way , nice dog in the photo , you know which one ( chuckle) kept in nice shape too.......

 

[CannaBunkerMan]

Did anyone catch the beginning of the "Interview with the President"? I'm curious to see the angle that Obama uses to snub the cause.

I agree with all this my question to you now is

You say Paul has been bought but until I see him put the groups who fund him above his core beliefs and voting record I don't buy it

Can you show any proof he has contradicted his beliefs to keep the support of any group

 

[Cojito]

Ron Paul wouldn't have to "contradict" his beliefs. the aforementioned christian re-constructionists, (the ones who want to bring back the stoning of sinners), love Paul because they both seek a decentralized society and weak federal government.

then He wasn't bought off. He is being supported by people who share his views

 

[SpasticGramps]

LOL. From the Onion

Are you here just to type a bunch of non sense? I feel bad that your having a hard time interpreting reality. I'm not blaming you...because you aren't thinking for yourself, your perception of reality is based on what the sewer stream propaganda machine has told you. It's psychological warfare and your a victim. Unfortunately we all are. Until you admit that or even try to break your conditioning, your life was just a dream.
