The Truth About Ron Paul

If everything remained the same in Congress and Paul was in the White House he'd probably veto a lot of things while leaving those decisions to the state. In order for his policies to be put in place he'd need others in congress with actual Tea Party beliefs and not the frauds who jumped on the bandwagon.
The two main Tea Party issues. Bring our troops home and protect our borders. Take the money saved by NOT expanding our empire and use that to take care of the current entitlement deficits in order to keep a promise made to the people. Gee a President hat actually keeps a promise. Then the entitlements would have to change, no if ands or buts, as they are too costly and we cannot afford them. Not a straight, cut off, see you later, we don't care even if you paid into the system like some falsely claim.
Those two issues would seem to heavily influence the pre 2008 democrats before they changed their policy on war mongering. So what's unfeaseable about that?
He didn't publish the newsletter. He was not affiliated with it in any way.
Once again you are wrong on an issue you refuse to research. Become informed at least people can somewhat respect an informed troll.

Not Tea Party imho. More Libertarian.

Troll in this instance was used as verb, not a noun. He is still capable of trolling, just like a troll. so yes he's a troll. sense of humor or not, thread jacking is a troll tactic.
When you use "deregulated" wouldn't a better term be manipulated? I mean what business in there right mind would significantly lower their the standards on a loan unless the free market was manipulated?

True, and i guess we are all capable. i just kinda took his post as a kind of "break the tension and laugh a little" kinda post rather than an attempt to jack the thread. idk. Kinda got a dry sense of humor myself sometimes.

it was a troll by definition, true.
when i find that a thread has devolved enough to not be taken seriously anymore, it is one of those things i do.
plus, i am just excited to build the damn thing. but gotta wait until tomorrow to raid my friend's barn for the lumber to save money.

Yeah, i just had a LONG debate with a FB "friend" who is throwing out a TON of Pro-Democrat posts and simply debating him with common sense and logic. Easy to do when you're not a Republican. But he resorts to personal Ad Hominem attacks, Circular Logic, and an overall fanatical view. So i simply point it out on his posts. And he's PISSED! LOL! So i told him that if he didn't believe enough in his chosen posts to civilly debate someone with an opposing view then he may want to reassess his position. OR "un-friend" me. LOL! Hasn't done it yet.
Yea that makes sense if you're a douchebag.
He had nothing to do with the newsletter. It changed hands and he didn't contribute to it.
So, according to your idiotic theory if your name is on something it's your fault. Someone prints a newsletter with the name America on it means it's Americas fault. Not the person who said it and printed it and published it.
At least you're consistent in that you don't believe in personal responsibility. Put some actual thought into things before yapping like an uniformed child.

hmmm, interesting.
you call me a douchebag, you say i have not 'done the research', you say ron paul was not affiliated with the ron paul newsletter in any way.
what is really funny is that i do not have to call you a douchebag, because your own words make you look like one.

funny that ron paul defended the ron paul newsletter, said it had to be 'taken in context', admitted contributing to the ron paul newsletter and personally penning some of that racism.
the great thing about our modern day and age, gramps, is that the internet doesn't forget, and neither do archived newspapers.

what is the red herring?
if it is the racist newsletter ron paul was a part of, i certainly do not consider that a distraction, i consider that a relevant and telling piece of the ron paul puzzle.

i was referring to the other guys previous post saying you were a troll. That is a red herring becuse it detracts from the topic while offering no substantiated info imo. Not YOUR post, because YOU are debating your position. And it contributes to the thread. i laughed at your grow post and think it lightened the overall attitude, or at least was meant to.

The truth is always simple. If it doesn't fit into soundbite form, then it can't be true. That's why Ron Paul is the smartest man in the world.
