Ron Paul is great. He represents 100% of my views. I will vote for him.

So you support a blame America first, pro-drug, OWS endorsing 9/11 truther, who is anti-American. That is what the surrender monkey represents. I know you are new here so you may not know his true history, but he only gets support from the anti-America pro drug crowd who are only programmed to see what their leader wants them to see. They are not allowed to think for themselves. If they were allowed to think for themselves they would realize he has never accomplished anything he says he is for and only accomplishes what he says he is against, like the collection of as many earmarks as possible.

I don`t think so.. Newt`s support is more broad-based. People are moving toward the mindset that Newt is electable. Most dems didn`t think that was the case with Dean.

His white-flag stance on foreign policy is a no-go for me.

This article is a poster child for the reasons to not legalize drugs.

I'm not 100% in agreement with him but close enough. I'm a Ron Paul supporter because he has been telling the truth about the root cause of our problems and that is fiat money. Fix the money and we'll fix a thousand other problems.

John D - I'm not new here. I know the man's history. That is precisely why I support him. You and most of the other flamers don't actually care what the guy says. You just support someone else.

Ron Paul haters arrive at their conclusions after years of studied, balanced, open minded analysis. They get together every Sunday to review their opinions, happily singing hymns in the pews of the Westboro Baptist Church.

The definition of a "truther" is one who thought our government physically attacked the towers. Ron Paul is not a truther.

He gets a whole lot of support from Christian teetotaling bread-making homeschoolers. Go figure.

I think you need to see the reality in order to argue effectively. You can still be against him, but saying untruths is disingenuous.

“I guess the pot heads are hoping to turn all those cornfields into pot fields.”

That really is a tired canard. Based on the latest Iowa polls, RP is getting around 18% of the gop vote. Do you honestly think that much of the Iowa population is making marijuana legalization their personal priority? As if it weren’t already legal for all practical purposes in states like CO, CA, and ME anyway?

LOL! Scrupulous respect for the truth has never been a trend on these threads.

Part of me is content to allow the disingenuous wallow in their misconceptions. It’s much more entertaining when they lose as a result.

Could’ve should’ve would’ve (Jim Mora) celebrated AFTER the TOUCHDOWN. The nitwit was showing off and the act was perceived as taunting and he got called for it. Game over!

I’m sure you can tell that I pinged the WRONG person, wrong thread. Sorry all.

Pat Buchanan never won the Iowa Caucus, either. Bob Dole won in 1996.

What you should have said, HT, is

You have called names, smeared, yelled and made things up.

Now you are the speech police. Hmmm.
