Ron Paul Speech Part 1-4

The Mitt and Newt Show
2012-01-27 20:19:00 Your Ad Here Last night CNN made the mistake of letting Wolf Blitzer moderate the debate. It goes much better when John King or Anderson Cooper moderate. Last night was the Mitt and Newt show. The two just bantered back and forth about personal problems, their finances and personal things between the two of them. (Read More...)

It behooves GOP to understand nature of Ron Paul?s appeal
2012-01-27 00:45:00 If the eventual Republican nominee succeeds in making clear the libertarian nature of Reaganite conservatism — and runs on that platform, he could do as well among young voters as the Gipper did in the 1980s. Bear in mind that twenty somethings today as in the Reagan era seem to have a thing for septuagenarians ...

Right on, Ron Paul
2012-01-17 23:24:00 For a great variety of reasons, I don’t think Ron Paul will run on the Libertarian Party ticket should he (as most expect) fail to win the Republican nomination. Indeed, I would wager that he will end up endorsing the GOP nominee. (Will explore this in a subsequent post.) Given my theory, I quickly clicked ...

Ron Paul’s Jeremiah Wright Problem
2011-12-31 13:23:00 If being voluntarily associated with a racist is bad for one politician, it should not be good for another, yet,, Roger Simon, PJ Media: That inability to select even marginally acceptable (non-racist) employees and colleagues should, on the face of it, disqualify Paul as a candidate for president of the United States. Can you imagine such a myopic individual, such a poor judge of character, choosing justices for the Supreme Court, not to mention myriad other important positions? But that’s giving Paul the best of it. Occam’s Razor tells us Paul knew perfectly well the kind of tripe his minions were writing (if he didn’t write it himself), just as Barack Obama — despite his protestations — knew perfectly well the kind of bilge that Jeremiah Wright was spewing. In fact, they went along with it for much the same reason — political expediency — although Paul arguably believed the despicable remarks in his newsletters more than Obama ever believed Wright’s excresce...

Gender-Policing Ron Paul
2011-12-16 19:35:00 My best friend from Harvard is gradually winning me over to support Ron Paul's presidential candidacy over Obama's. The feisty libertarian is holding his own in the GOP race despite derision from self-styled experts in both parties and some suspicious poll-doctoring by the major news networks. Anyone with so wide a range of ideological enemies is probably putting his finger on some uncomfortable truths about our country's asset bubble, military over-spending, creeping police state, and substitution of "culture wars" for genuine solutions. The site Ron Paul Myths gives a good overview of his actual positions and how they've been misrepresented. This morning my friend called my attention to this generally favorable Washington Post article, which nonetheless treats the Texas congressman as something of a sideshow act. As Hillary Clinton found, gender-policing is one of the tools that commentators use to undermine a candidate, making it seem ridiculous, even unnatural, for this pers...

2011-12-02 03:38:00 150-second online ad cross-examines the former Speaker?s record on policy, values and seriousnessLAKE JACKSON, Texas ? The Ron Paul 2012 Presidential campaign announced today that it has released and will broadly distribute a 150-second online advertisement that challenges former House Speaker Newt Gingrich on a group of issues dear to conservative voters.Much of the ad is in the former Speaker?s own voice, and after a few statements by Newt it follows with an image of him sitting on a loveseat beside former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the two chuckling over their agreement concerning as-yet scientifically proven anthropogenic global warming. The ad also features Newt?s knee-jerk assault on Rep. Paul Ryan?s (R-WI) modest budget proposal, and the former Speaker?s lobbying ties to government mortgage giants Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae that perpetuated the financial crisis and recession. In addition, the spot showcases discussion of Newt?s lobbying ties to healthcare firms prior to hi...

Ron Paul placed first in the 2011 Values Voter Straw Poll
2011-10-09 21:09:00 LAKE JACKSON, Texas?2012 Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul placed first in the 2011 Values Voter Straw Poll today garnering an impressive 37 percent of the total number of votes cast.In placing first, Dr. Paul placed ahead of Herman Cain, Rick Santorum and Rick Perry who placed second, third and fourth with a mere 23, 16 and 8 percent, respectively.Held annually each year since 2007, the Values Voter Summit presidential straw poll is seen as a benchmark for how well Republican candidates will appeal to Christian conservative activists. Endorsement by this core activist community is likely to energize voters nationwide that identify with family-friendly issues such as parental decision-making concerning children?s education, less government interference in local communities, and the sanctity of human life.?Dr. Paul?s standing among Christian conservative voters is growing as people become more familiar with the man as well as the message,?said Ron Paul 2012 Presidential Cam...
Attention Internet: Ron Paul will never be president.
2011-09-29 21:43:00 I'm serious, he won't, ever and you people need to get over it already.Look, I'm not saying he's the worst candidate among the GOP, he's most likely the best. The fact that he's the best one doesn't say anything for him, but it does speak volumes about how absolutely pathetic and out of touch the republican party is. Ron Paul has some good sense and sound ideas. He wants to end the wars for starters. The problem is, he's got far too many stances on various issues that NEITHER side like. The republicans wouldn't vote for him as president and neither would the majority of Democrats.For Democrats, these are a few deal breakers:* He's against a womans right to choose.* He's for prayer in schools.* He's against the separation of church and state.* He's basically against any program or service the government provides that's not mentioned in the constitution.* He's against same-sex marriage.For republicans, these are a few deal breakers:* He describes the hate some muslims h...

Too bad this is all BS... and here is yet another example of this fact. T. Boone Pickens is back again. After he tried to make a big splash out of his ideas on windmill power (epic fail, that one), the Pick man is back at the public trough urging Congress to create a number of taxpayer-funded subsidies for companies that buy and manufacture vehicles that run on natural gas.

AP Tars Tea Party Movement as 'Grandfathered' By Ron Paul
2011-05-14 16:39:00 -By Warner Todd Huston In a story by Jay Root for the Associated Press, the news wire service tries to tar the entire Tea Party movement with guilt by association claiming that it was somehow fathered or "grandfathered" by Texas Representative Ron Paul, the cranky uncle of the GOP. The fact is Ron Paul had nothing at all to do with the Tea Party movement. The claim that he did is a calumny, one that the AP hopes will discredit the Tea Party movement. In the Story, the AP claims that Ron Paul is "both a spiritual father and actual father in the tea party movement." It mentions that his son, Rand, is a "tea party darling" (that one is... |
