True, but the OomPauloompas would look so cool doing their chants, flips, spins, and other antics. /s

“if CPAC is so RINO then why did Beck, Rubio, and Coulter all give speeches there? Are they RINO’s now?”

No. Coulter is just selling books. She goes everywhere. Ditto Beck. Rubio is running for office. Rubio at least is probably asking himself why he wasted his time up there. The Ron Paul vote will be the big news. It exposes CPAC as both a RINO group and a fringe whacko group. What an amazing disaster for this once proud group.

1. CPAC goes Log cabin

2. Jim Rob declares CPAC anathema

3. CPAC straw poll favors Ron Paul

4. Ergo Ron Paul is anathema

Breaking, he also won the Pepsi challenge and when asked if people prefer Tastes Great or Less Filling, strangely enough, the answer was Ron Paul.

C’mon, you and I know that he’s a racist anti-Semite and an isolationist. There are LOTS of smart people here on FreeRepublic (over 400K members) and most of them have seen enough during the last election to know all about Congressman Paul. That’s why his fan base here could fit into a GP Medium tent with room left over to sleep 12.

Paul wanted to cut-and-run from Iraq, while we were fighting Al Qaeda in Iraq.

That's not a good thing.

2400 out of 10,000 in attendance voted. Not an accurate representation at all, IMO.

That would seem to beg the question:

Why if other candidates could be voted for, and were on the agenda, why did they fail to do that?

You do know this isn't the Paul kissup site, right?
This is a conservative forum, get it? RP is not a conservative.
Why are you even here?

If you look back in the posts from about 1998 to around 2006, Ron Paul was a huge hero on this site for standing against the sell-outs we had in congress and being the lone voice for true Constitutionalism. It wasn't until 2007 (the beginning of the primaries) did a large amount of freepers (the RINO Bushbots amongst us) start blasting Ron Paul with lies and then so-called "Paulbots" started getting mysteriously banned. So yes, this site has more history supporting Paul than bashing him.

With that said, I'm not a kissup to anybody. But I will stand for the Constitution and anybody who supports it, whether that be Palin, Pawlenty, Tancredo, Paul, etc.

>> In any event, everyone should listen to George Will’s CPAC speech <<

Oh, c’mon. Get serious. We all know it’s a lot more fun to bash RINO’s like George Will than it is to take the trouble of actually reading what they have to say!

“Actually I believe Rush is scheduled to speak at the end of the conference??”
I don’t think so. I think Beck is the last one. But I am not sure. I really pay little attention to CPAC, unless they are falling on their face (like they just did)and blowing up Romney(like they just did).

Where does Ron Paul stand on abortion and gay ‘rights’?

If he’s not against them, he’s not a conservative. Period.
