Oh stop with the paranoid tripe, you tried that with another yesterday.

You are the definition of a Paultard retread. That is something I like, because you Paul guys are always good for a laugh so i hate it when you get zotted, kills the entertainment.

So lay low this time will ya...

...You're right about one thing, our military overseas has undermined our safety and sovereignty here. Now we have a thousand useless agencies to do nothing but bankrupt the Republic. Go ahead and vote status quo, I'm opting out.

...See ya.

“You are the definition of a Paultard retread.”

Ah ... er ... ahem.

Is the best reply you can come up with?

I challenged you to check with the moderator. Apparently truth means nothing to you.

No wonder you advocate a Globalist Liberal like Gingrich.

Do you actually attempt logic sometimes?

The opposite of the War on Drugs is not to legalize Drugs...

I think I pointed out I am not a fan of the way the WoD has played out, but not because of its intent.

Looks like the OMB (occupy mom’s basement) crowd is getting spunky again.

Yeah, the adults know where their doing, sure...As they spent the next 6 generations of Americans into a bottomless pit of debt, borrowed from violent Communist countries, bailed out the banks, Wall Street and big biz to the tune of *trillions*, while telling everyone else to pay their bills, as your corrupt government for the past 25 years rolled out the red carpet for tens of millions of illegal aliens, making American citizenship all but pointless.

Are you stupid or just play the stupid role?

Like I said I have no desire to turn you in, I like you Paul guys. If you want the admin to send me a letter with your bonafides go ahead. If I'm wrong then you are a standard issue new Paultard, welcome to the party. Net effect is the same.

As far as the rest, yeah yeah I hear ya, something about being called a globalist liberal by a guy promoting a man loved by the Anti Semitic turhter blame America crowd and panders to our Muslim enemies in surrender monkey fashion just cracks me up.

Thanks...

“you can not legislate morality”
there are and rightly so laws in place that prevent my behavior adversely affecting you or others. But if my behavior does not effect you there should not be a law.

OMB struck a nerve huh...

What you say is true and needs to be fixed.

Paul AIN'T the repairman for the job...

“Newt’s first wife is not dead.”

Answer:

Exactly my point.

Gingrich was not sincere enough about his marriage oath (till death do us part), that he wouldn’t break it.

We absolutely know for a fact that Gingrich does not honor sacred oaths very seriously.

“Like I said I have no desire to turn you in ...”

Whew ... I was getting worried there for a moment.

Again, you have added nothing to this discussion other than a spooky sense of paranoia and some childish name calling.

You are a wonderful ambassador for Gingrich.

You claimed that some FReepers here don't understand that we need to scale back our "interventions". Now you soften it with "entanglements overseas".

The only way Ron Paul looks good on foreign policy is to paint the rest of us as wanting our troops in every country and wanting "endless wars". I do not accept this false premise. We all desire efficiency in everything, including the military, and we all encourage our allies to defend themselves, just like the Iraqis are doing for themselves now for example. We also agree that we do not need troops in countries where their presence discouraged the host countries from providing their own defense, i.e., Europe.

The Department of Defense needs MORE money, not less. Nothing has changed with mankind. Utopia is for fools. Either we arm ourselves as much as we can, or become slaves like the people of all other isolationist countries became in the past.

seems to be right out of the lefts playbook

Where have you been? Namecalling is a FReeper standby. (Fill-in-the-blank)-BOT,(Fill-in-the-blank)-TARD and of course, good old "RINO". I think every single republican has been called a RINO at least once on this forum.

Oh so then you are advocating for America to follow the Wiccan rede – ‘ Do As Thou Wilt But Harm None’

The Wiccan / libertarian brainwashing of America with the counter-culture movement is pathetic. Who defines harm? Personally I can find evidence that homosexuality, prostitution, heroin use, marijuana use, cocaine use, etc…. public nudity, public lewd behavior, and a host of other behavior that libertarians and leftists love to defend as being harmless to others is harmful. Thus we have to debate what is considered harmful or not. Thus rendering the pathetic Wiccan slogan followed by libertarians and leftists meaningless.

Oh yeah, surrender monkey....Clever quips an all.

Lets just continue with out genius foreign policies, spending the American treasure on every other country on earth, borrowing from the Communist Chinese putting the next 6 generations into a cesspool of endless debt, and rewarding tens of millions who enter our country illegally from foreign lands...

Don't worry about surrendering to anyone slick...At this rate, your government is giving away and selling what's left of America, as they demand we pay the bill for this epic disaster. All created by those you call, responsible "adults".

What a terrible sham...

No it is not our military that has undermined our security by being overseas as you believe. It is the leftist and libertarian alliance of Paultards and Code Pink radicals that continually is undermining our troops overseas and our National Security with their anti-American propaganda and the moral support that they give to terrorists and dictatorships.
