Ron Paul has some surprising news for the Tea Party:
You’re being taken for a ride.
At least this is what many libertarians like Ron Paul believe when they see someone like Glenn Beck or Sarah Palin trying to lead the Tea Party at the “restoring honor” rally this weekend. In fact, Ron Paul believes, if you’re looking for real freedom, you should really go back to the core of the constitution and the bill of rights, which Beck and Palin do not fully endorse when you really look at their beliefs. Whether it be Palin’s support for starting more wars or Beck’s beliefs on paying the private Federal Reserve MORE interest on our money by means of a VAT tax.
Ron Paul believes in neither of the above.
Here was Ron Paul’s message to the Tea Party via The New York Times just the other day:
“As many frustrated Americans who have joined the Tea Party realize, we cannot stand against big government at home while supporting it abroad. We cannot talk about fiscal responsibility while spending trillions on occupying and bullying the rest of the world. We cannot talk about the budget deficit and spiraling domestic spending without looking at the costs of maintaining an American empire of more than 700 military bases in more than 120 foreign countries. We cannot pat ourselves on the back for cutting a few thousand dollars from a nature preserve or an inner-city swimming pool at home while turning a blind eye to a Pentagon budget that nearly equals those of the rest of the world combined.”
While the Tea Party will be out supporting Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin this weekend, you wonder how many of them will be in full support of more wars and paying more interest to a group of untouchable and unauditable private bankers otherwise known as the FED? This is precisely what Ron Paul is asking the American public to consider when looking at the Tea Party leaders and see if they really stand for what they believe in.
Ron Paul believes the Tea Party is not about “left” or “right” like a lot of political pundits make it out to be. It’s about the constitution, and limited government.
I WANT MY REPUBLIC BACK.

How can anybody trust libertarians when their favorite
“son” loads up legislation that he knows will pass and
gives the pork while giggling “I voted against it.”?

Dear Ron,
Please take your medications.

I don’t recall Beck supporting the VAT. His understanding of the money issue is weak, and that troubles me.
I suspect he's a tad bit jealous.
Looks like sour grapes and a post from a democrat plant.
I agree with him, regarding what is actually quoted from him in the excerpt above.
Then search isn’t working:

If he is right on any issue, it is by accident.
Now at this point is is very simple,What the hell have you ever done Mr Paul?? besides butt lick Commies like Nader.
It was, but that’s OK. Some may not have seen it.
I don't really care what Ron Paul believes. I think for myself, unlike most of Paul's acolytes.
Paul loves the attention so his nuttiness plays right into that.
Why on earth does Ron Paul insist on running as a Republican when he is, in fact and deed, a Libertarian?
Be honest, Dr. Paul, about who and what you are.
Let’s see if you can be re-elected by being honest.
Eldon Tyrell says -
Who asked Ron Paul anyway? Self important little clown.
By the way - I pray that people stop posting every time Ron Paul farts.
It is dangerous to dismiss opposing views with statements like, "Take your meds." Much better to focus on what they are saying and determine if what they are saying is correct or not. Paul may be wrong but no one can say that he is without significant information sources.
