Epic Ownage!

Tom Woods took those partisan hacks to school!

Let it not be said that no one cared, that no one objected once it’s realized that our liberties and wealth are in jeopardy. -Ron Paul 7/10/03

it's like....

changing the warden in the prison.

Hopefully, you're looking at a future

president of the United States of America. Hopefully, he'll pick up in 2016 or 2020.

Excellent as always Mr. Tom

Excellent as always Mr. Tom Woods.

Doctor.

Dr.Tom Woods

The author at alternet.org article calls Ron Paul a racist...

... but defends abortion.

Maybe someone should let him know that as of 2007, there are more black babies aborted than are born in New York.

What is more racist than taking the life of an unborn black child before it has even taken it's first breath?

"The greatest mystery of all is truth." - Me, 2009

Tom Woods is rad!

I love this guy!

which is why we should focus on Likely Republican Primary Voters

Some progs will vote with us, but it is a waste of time to focus on this unprincipled and unpredictable group. We do know exactly who is likely to vote in a Republican primary and you should be knocking on their door tomorrow...

"If you’re into political activism, at least for Ron Paul if not for anyone else, I strongly recommend spending some time with iroots.org." - Tom Woods

I know

there are some party loyalists as well as specific issue loyalists on both sides. I know of some of them too, but there are a lot of less dogmatic progressives who would easily switch to Ron Paul who voted for Obama. I just 'converted' one today on accident. So don't worry The dogmatic progressives are few and far between. The average person isn't even paying much attention to politics yet, and those are the ones who will start to shift first. You might as well forget about your friend and don't even waste your time talking about politics for at least another 4 years.

We should spam progressive websites with this

it might get through...

-quiet engineer, has a plan.
Ron Paul IS Real Change

The reason why I'm voting for Ron Paul.

I'm not a Progressive and I'm also not a Libertarian. For me it's simple, I hate all neo-conservatives, which includes the current neocon in the White House.

So nice from Mr. Wood

Saw that porn article hit on counter-tread sensual aha.net or screwup. net, pink net or somethin while cruising.LOL!Ignore that garbage.See Ron Paul on war and war mongering.Thank you Mr.Wood.

The Ron Paul Campaign Staff Needs to Fight Back!

I saw that AlterNet hit job too, and I was pissed that the phony smears continue.

It is one thing to have specific policy disagreements (as I have on a few issues), but the smear-tactics are a horrible reflection of how even some "liberals" (faux liberals) would rather continue to have War Criminal, Fascist-Corporatist scum who happily lie to them each and every day continue on in power as their leaders ... then they would give proper respect and consideration for an Anti-War, Anti-Corporatist, honest man.

A response is necessary, because as we saw with G. H. W. Bush's phony-attacks against Mike Dukakis in 1988, and exaggerated smears against Al Gore in 2000, and smears against John Kerry in 2004 -- if you let them smear you ... enough people will believe the smears.

The Ron Paul campaign needs to have a "War Room" similar to Bill Clinton in 1992 where he has a staff that combats all the attacks and smears, and sets the record straight.

You can never expect people to just be "smart enough" to see through the disguise. If that were true, America would never have gotten so messed-up and overrrun by corrupt people to begin with.

Time to FIGHT BACK!

Well, here is part of his

Well, here is part of his staff, fighting..very well, too I think.

One of my friends who

One of my friends who describes himself as a progressive told me he cannot support Ron Paul because RP is pro-life... and this even though RP has said repeatedly (and is the only honest man left in Washington D.C.) that the Federal Government has no standing in the abortion question. He's running for President for heaven's sake! A Federal executive position. RP couldn't do anything about the issue, other than appoint Constitutionalists to the Federal Courts... who, by the way, would also want the issue back in the hands of the states!

Sometimes I want to pull my hair out!

So the baby killers don't

So the baby killers don't like Paul. Another reason to vote the man in.

You should be sending him

You should be sending him this video.

Funny you suggest this... I

Funny you suggest this... I did just that right after I posted this comment.

No reply as yet, but I will keep you posted.

thinking outside the box

I'm definitely not a progressive and don't care much for them. But how do we know that disinformation operatives aren't filling out the comment forms to create a false consensus that the progressives will follow ?

Seems reasonable that some people just follow the path of least resistance carved out by others with "seemingly" similar interests.

ACinMa, many thanks.
We/I received very useful education, re principles, morals, truth-telling, constitution,- and all this helps us in maturing, re'set our compass.
+ excess powers of president, RP does Not want it.
+ major concerns, bipartisanship, and Dennis K's endorsement of Obama, ugh.

America is facing crisis, has a long reach, with Ron Paul as President the country & world will be a better place. We can rest with that.

I've heard that argument

I've heard that argument many times from so called "progressives." Their contempt for our men and women in uniform knows no bounds.

This should be on the Front Page!

Gosh, Tom Woods is brilliant.
