Ron Paul has attracted a primary opponent. Freepers that live in the TX 14 Congressional District, who wish to be represented by some Republican other than Ron Paul might wish to go to Chris Peden's website (http://chrispeden.org/). He still can use signatures on his candidacy petition.

Thanks Jim, for laying the gauntlet down. I would rather see you come out with guns blazing instead of Paul supporters peering-over-the-shoulder and having reasonable posts pulled that they have done on past threads if they so much as utter the word neo-con.

And as promised, I won't support Paul or post his threads on your Forum.

Anyone who votes for Rudy is voting to set conservatism back 30 years.

Not only is it unfortunate that Ron Paul has these weak positions on national defense, but also that he chooses to make these positions the focus of his campaign (I mean, his chances of securing the nomination were always nil, and, at best, his candidacy could have served to advertise conservative positions on taxes, spending, pro-life issues, RKBA, limited government, foreign aid, school vouchers, freedom of religious expression, national sovereignty, the United Nations, external public debt, deregulation, free (non-crony) trade...and in effect shame the leftists candidates). Ron Paul is like a beautiful plate of food ruined by a cow patty. And the more his campaign advances, the more things he does and says that are, to put it mildly, disappointing.

Given that he sees fit to all but ignore all issues not related to Iraq and the WOT (including the "civil liberties" of terrorists) in his campaign, I'm loathe to associate myself in any way with Ron Paul. He fails to understand (or, at best, fails to understand the magnitude of the threat) that the federal government is not the only agent capable of denying Americans their lives and liberty.

What a waste.

the war against Islamofascism...

Jim, if there is a "war against Islamofascism" going on, can you tell me where it's raging? Can you tell me what the H*** our government is doing in the Balkans and Iraq, if they are supposedly waging war on Islamofascism? Can you explain their actions regarding immigration, and the unprecedented public praise of Islam, if there is a war on Islamofascism going on?

The only wars I see being waged with our blood and treasure, and at the expense of coutnless innocent civilians, is for pimps and drug traffickers, on behalf of radical Muslim groups (including Al Queda itself, in the case of the Balkans), and against our liberties (I guess if they hate us for our freedoms we'll just be less free so they won't hate us so much?), and FOR MULTICULTURAL FASCISM.

When they get done, where will there be a place safe on earth from the Multicultural Fascism of the NeoCons? Where can someone that is a true conservative raise his children, where he can teach them the truth about culture and history, and about what America was supposed to be, before Lincoln, Roosevelt, Wilson, FDR, LBJ, Clinton, and Bush chipped away at it until there was nothing left but an ugly, godless empire?

Thanks for letting me post - and thanks for reading...

Ron Paul is the "R" party's only hope of avoiding a Hitlery presidency in '08. She can't wait to make use of all those juicy new powers your boy Bush has handed to himself and future Presidents. And who do you think you're kidding that she is "anti-war", anyway?

It will be a shame if you squander your historic opportunity to support an actual patriot.
