Should Texas secede and become its own nation?

This is Quality

that's my new tagline

Yes, I saw that one to the end, put rather succinctly; and what I didn't know was that he was instrumental back in 1983 to set the Mises Institute up in the first place. This is going to get a lot, lot worse later in the year and all through 2011 when the adjustable rate mortgages are beginning to reset across the board and we'll see government debt default (by the way, not for the first time in US history). Who's then going to finance the soup kitchens?

good slogan, no?

"The CIA runs its own businesses: every once and a while they get involved in the drug business!"

Also a good slogan. May need some retooling. Maybe "No CIA = No Drug Problem".

"It's ok to go down as long as it's orderly": A congressman on the value of the dollar. Rephrased: "I am pro-slow burglary". Or: "Accepting inflation is trusting a burglar's recollection of your property before he arrived."

Why isn't this man our president?
Our country is collapsing around us & we actually have someone who could lead us to liberty, yet we're shackled by the district of criminals.

Freedom Is Popular...When The Economy Worsens, They Will Be Looking For Solutions From Ron Paul..They Already Have Seeked Him Out..

Ron Paul In 2012 !!

very edgy!

really good speech. Two hi-lites were when Ron said:

I. the case for Sarah Palin:
"the question of the tea parties came up. ... all i got to say about it is that you just can't reject them all or endorse them all. ...but then all of a sudden when the conventional politician realized, hey, there's a few people disgruntled out there-- hey, that must be a new movement; i better get into that movement and get in front of the line so i can be a leader of that movement." and that is essentially what has happened-- they're jumping in and there's pretty strong evidence that many of the tea party meetings are infiltrated by the neocons..."

II. the case for Federal Reserve Secrecy:
"...the international stuff: the exclusion on what the GAO can audit is that we're (ie. congress) not allowed to look at any international agreements with governments, other central banks, or international financial organizations (-ie. the IMF and the World Bank). And here we have a central bank that can do all these things and they never have to ask the congress for anything. They don't have to say to congress "we want to send one billion dollars over to Country A"-- no, they don't have to; they just click a computer and do it! So my suspicion is that if we ever get to look at the books that they are very involved in foreign policy."
