Thank you for proving my point.

So to summarize your response,

NO you Paulbots cannot provide any serious rational responses. The whole of your ability to respond is to scream bile and invective at anyone who questions your god, Der Paul.

That may make you Net warriors feel all giddy and macho, it will not win Der Paul any votes.

Here is the fundamental problem for Der Paul. Demagoguery and hysteria only work with the rabid political fringers with their wacko causes, it will not sell to average voters. To make the switch from fringe wack job candidate, to serious candidate, Paul has to give people things to vote FOR, not just scream bile at everything he is against.

I suspect you get the sensation of things flying over your head frequently. ;-)

Paul is backed by the Lefties and Libertarians (both), and could only assure a Hildabeast victory.

Sorry, it's a Rudy Guiliani candidacy that can only assure a Hildebeast victory, because the only significant difference between the two is gender and how much wealth they want to redistribute.

Paul didn’t have any goals for November 5th, it was his supporters who set that goal. His goal has been $12 million by the end of the Quarter

"there are no lefties: there are only statists and lovers of liberty"

Those "lovers of liberty" as in "progressives" and "socialists" are participating in promoting Paul; their goal: disrupt any legitimate challengers to the Hildabeast.

"Lovers of Liberty" is cute, but NOT representative of the bulk of Paul's current supporters at all (only the truly gullible would believe so).

Paul has less than zero of a chance to get a "Republican" nomination.

Now...if he ran Third party, the moonbat peaceniks, anti-WOT zealots, and those BDS-sufferers would go with him for sure.

Nice crowd to be in association with as a "Libertarian", doncha know.....

Yeah, and if the moon was made of green cheese, there’d be no hunger problem.

Paul is not going to run third party.

Wouldn’t you rather have the moonbat peaceniks, the anti-WOT zealots, and BDS-sufferers voting Republican than Democrat? Or have you gotten used to losing big-time since 2006?

This is good news. The more money George Soros and his moveon gang waste on cut and run, the less they will have to spend on the democrat candidate.

The fact of the matter is that Paul didn't run and hide when he was drafted. He choose to be a flight surgeon as the position was in scarcity at the time. He was on dozens of flight missions alleviating pilots from their ailments.

Paul also served in the Air National Guard, you know, the same branch that FReeper hypocrites defended Bush's service in 2004 but have no problem criticizing Paul for serving in.

Who else but the Soros type would support a blame America first coward like cut and run? Soros and Paul have the same goal; Make sure America loses the WOT.

Yawn. I have no doubt Paul will not run Third Party....he's already said he won't.

My point is that he is not backed by Republicans in great numbers; he's backed by the moonbat peaceniks, the anti-WOT zealots, and BDS-sufferers, as I said.

He's a waste of good air-space and is the Republican equivalent of Dennis Kucinich.

By the way, the accusations you have made of me are almost worthy of the abuse button. But I won’t hit it.

Ron Paul is a lunatic.

Ron Paul is very popular with freedomn-loving people

Ron Paul is popular only with people who do NOT realize that freedom is NOT free. He is popular with people who expect every freedom they have to be given them without any sacrifice by them.

I would bet that at least 85-90% of cut and run's supporters have never even served in the military, much less are serving now, but the paulbots continue to say cut and run has support from the military. My son recently returned from Iraq. While he had never heard of cut and run he said he knew of nobody from the 82nd Airborne who would support any anti-American who would rather surrender to the terrorists than to defeat them.

Cut and run gets his support from the Soros type of cowards who want everything America has to offer, but are not willing to give anything in return.

Why does Ron Paul lead in contributions from the military?

Of course, Ron Paul does not advocate surrendering to the terrorists.

Congratulations to your son and the 82nd Airborne. My uncle was 82nd Airborne, died in Normandy.

He doesn't, that is just a rumor that has consistently been debunked.

The link you sent doesn’t seem to work.

Never said he was in the vietnam war. He returned to the states and his reserves in the Air National Guard. Wonder if he ever ran into W while on drill?

Now go help raise some funds for your candidate he can really use the cash and he needs to be in the race.

I’m holding out for a Paul/Hunter ticket. Thompson doesn’t want the presidency as much as his wife does. Hence the Thompson/Hunter ticket wouldn’t work. I would support a Hunter anyone else ticket if Paul doesn’t make it.

> Duncan Hunter has some things to explain. <

Do not plant innuendo!
If you have something to say, say it! You play around with words - You’re not a lawyer are you?

Perhaps Paul didn’t say he saw active war duty, but some of his supporters here have.
