    "Incidentally, let me go on the record here: For any Paul fans who are thinking "This is his time," I heretofore state I will not support, or vote for, Ron Paul, under any circumstances whatsoever.

    That's where I'm coming form. Under no circumstances whatsoever will I vote for this reactionary, anti-semitic peacenik "We brought 9/11 ourselves" pacifist Chomnskyite crank.

    And I'll say it: I will, yes, be amenable to Barack Obama being re-elected under those circumstances."

    This is the same guy who was encouraging Tea Partiers to vote for Mike Castle and other Republicans being primaried by Tea Party candidates.

    I really, really, really want this guy to get his comeuppance. Liberals? Liberals are just doing what they do. Sure you have to ahem deal with them, but they're not trying to lie about what they are or what they want.

    This guy? Traitor. Despicably so.

  2. Wow Rollory you rolled up a good bit of mainstream media straw for us.

    I don't think it is anti-semitic to say 'no' to all foreign aid equally while he also stated that this would perhaps allow Israel to decide what is her best interests rather than toeing the line from DC.

    He is no peacenik and believes that we should be able to defend our shores but without so many foreign bases, wars, etc. He also believes in a well armed citizenry as shown by his ratings from both NRA and the GOA. How much in the way of small arms development have we missed out on as a result of the 1934 and 1968 gun control acts? Here is a guy that would support that along with the closing of certain problematic agencies.

    The 9/11 statement is false. He stated that he agrees with the sentiments of the 9/11 Commission Report in that the act of terrorism was blowback for our adventures in the M.E. and he by no means excused the act.

    No other candidate will give you anything different with regard to debt and domestic policy. You can disagree with him on foreign policy but you have to be willing to support the expense of approximately 450 bases in some 150 countries and ever expanding wars with no end.

    If you don't like the immigration policy of the US back Paul to end the entitlement system which will solve the immigration problems.

    The rest of the candidates will give us a continued slide toward fascism or as he terms it corporatism which is massive government being captured by certain trans-national business interests always at the expense of the citizenry. MF Global and the recent Fed announcement to lend to EU banks at our expense, being the latest examples of such egregious behavior.

    Best Regards,

    Cory

  3. For the record, for anybody else looking this up, by "this guy" I meant Ace, who has never seen a conservative principle he's not willing to sell out for power.

    (teach me to comment while angry ...)
