Oh well.:jointsmile: I would also like to know where all the flaming Obamaniac ranters are that were here prior to the election? They are probably so damned confused at this point they have no idea what to think, which isn't all that different than most of the time anyway I guess.:jointsmile:

Ron Paul is Mentally Ill?? I never knew that, hell the campaign for liberty meetings we have had have been pretty full for a bunch of people who support someone who's "Mentally Ill". Ron Paul has been projecting for years this financial crisis and now that he was right hes mentally ill?? I guess the fact that he supports Legalization makes him mentally ill to right?? So just because someone dosen't agree with whatever you believe in they are mentally ill? at least bring somthing good to the argument, blanketly calling someone mentally ill is just well, RETARDED

in all seriousness, Ron Paul has a couple of ideas that I agree 100% with (flat tax, pro-guns) :thumbsup: ... but, as a whole, the guy is chasin' UFO's
... besides, he wants to take away my Social Security and Medicare :wtf: ... bullshit, (not, unless he takes away my guns first
) ... it's one thing to have good ideas, and principles, but quite another to make them work in the real world ... I think Paul is a sincere man, and very honest (for a politician), but a bit short on common sense ... good thread, btw :thumbsup:

This is a tragic misrepresentation of Dr. Paul, mostly because he gets very little air time outside of economic or hot topic social issues (like marijuana). First off, most budget outlays are indescretionary, and depend on congressional approval to annex, such as medicare and social security.

The federal government really has no business worrying about whether a woman can terminate pregnancy, if it is ok to ingest a substance that will not kill me, or even how to manage the Alaskan school system (department of education mandates through budgetary ultimatums).
The federal government is supposed to protect the rights of citizens from these states if they happen to overstep their boundary. They are also there to protect citizens from foreign invasion/attack, as well as help with any state budget shortfalls. Remember when governor Wallace from Alabama would not allow black students into "white" schools? That's when the fed's stepped in.

that's an excellent response, very intelligent ... like Paul, I agree with a lot of what you say, but ya lost me at abortion, for example ... I consider myself a 'Constitutionalist', but I still believe abortion is murder, so I can't give ya 100% ... :smokin:

I really am not fond of the idea of it either, but then again i have not had to experience labor pains, raising a child on government assistance, or as some might say... responsibility

Say a state does decide to enact a "Roe vs. Wade" sentiment. You can always "vote with your feet." I know i do:rastasmoke:

I will agree, I wish he hadn't said he believed in aliens. It took me a while to look past that and find out what he stood for. I love Ron Paul though. I think Ron Paul is an extremely intelligent man who is constantly coming up with plausible and good solutions to many problems our nation faces. I have seen some crazies among his supporters though. I tend to see a lot of Ron Paul signs amongst "9-11 was an inside job," and other conspiracy slogans.

That's not even including medicare tax.
My generation will never see a dime of that money. From what I understand, his plan is to allow us young guns to opt out of the program if we choose(any of us with a brain will do so.) Than they will gradually eliminate both programs.
I believe social security will be depleted by 2040 and medicare about 10 years from now.

He's the only politician I've ever heard talk about America losing it's way..I don't care if some of his ideas were crazy, I don't think it'd be easy to eliminate social security...I think his biggest point on that is that if the government continues to spend like it is, there isn't going to be money left to give out for social security, but not many politicians will publically admit that 95% of what the government does is wrong and immoral..
