Yeah, maybe we can have a Sidebar Mod Revolution and get our own dang blimp.
I dunno about the OP, but I supported Ron Paul earlier in the year before moving to Tancredo (for idealogical reasons, largely Paul’s comments on Islamofascism), and am now shifting to Thompson (for pragmatic reasons). Honestly, I still favor Ron Paul over Huckabee and Giuliani. If one’s primary issue is tipping the federalist balance more towards the states (ie shrinking the federal government), then it isn’t unfathomable to have some folks who like both Ron Paul and Fred Thompson.
Benjamin Franklin was more important to us gaining our freedom than most people think. He spent years schmoozing in the French court, gaining the respect of the upper class (he became immensely popular), so that he could go to the king with some backing and ask him to support our revolution. The actions of the French navy and army were critical to our victory at Yorktown.
People who want to be free need help to succeed.
What's so objectionable about that?
And then post a thread about it.
In Breaking News, of course. ;-)
It’s Liberty Political Advertising. If you google that, you get several links. All take you to:
Says they’re ‘making some changes’ and ‘sponsorships will again be available soon’.
I suspect the Federal Election Folks will be all over them soon.
What's so objectionable about that?
Dang....it's late here and I want to stay up and watch this conversation continue...
It's prolly going to have to wait until next week. I've had a LONG day. Woke up at 4AM with a killer toothache, had my first tooth extraction ever and a heck of a day at work. Daddy's heading out to a well-deserved Friday Happy Hour, and then heading down to DC for a few-day excursion. I'll be meeting Bobby Jindal if he's in town next week. Exciting!
Hey, that's the one perk of being a Sidebar Mod. We can throw nonsense into Breaking News and make sure it stays there.
Yeah, this is a disgusting thread. People obviously can't support the candidate of their choice; nah, they're supposed to support whoever the media/beltway tells them to.
Funny, but I don't see any blimps for the other candidates, no grassroots support, no money bombs...just the usual Republican drones who do what the party elites tell them to do.
I'll say one thing. Ron Paul has exposed a lot of hypocrites and pseudo-conservatives.
“Exactly. America has not been stabbing its fighting forces in the back nearly enough.”
I wonder, then, why the armed forces give so much money to Ron Paul. Got a tin foil hat explanation for that?
“The most important issue in this campaign is defending this nation from the Islamofascists.”
Maybe to you, but I think most people are past that and are now more interested in the economy.
Never mind, Rick.
I did not realize I was speaking with someone who does not listen to others and their viewpoints, but rather someone who prefers to paint with a broad brush and lacks the spirit of compromise, compassion and understanding.
You can spare me the history lesson too, you know nothing about myself or my works
later
Jim Robinson may be your “leader”, but he sure as hell isn’t mine.
I miss all the good stuff while on the road.
Just so you know, that hole in the sign is to allow access to a fitting of some sort on the hull... It’s not a flaw in the banner.
That would be my department and I'm not even a moderator!
I can get ya' all a blimp. ;-)
