Theeasylifeofthe allknowning butseldom doig armchairQuarterback!

Don't get me wrong, I really feel that good constructive criticism is healthy and good, but I really think that a lot of these guys on here who are always highly critical of Ron Paul's performances in these debates need to get off their duffs and hit the pavement or run for some office in order to spread the message, instead of contributing by their highly critical play by play analysis from the couch. I really think it would sober them up in a hurry, and restore a lot of the respect and admiration for a guy who did his very best last night. And by the way it was amazing!! I actually handed out super brochures all day yesterday in the cold and I talking to tons of students on the side walk(by the way most of them sincerely thanked me for doing what I was doing)at BYU-Idaho. I did this for about six hours until one friendly officer and a university security officer can and protected and served me by scaring my two dogs half to death, telling me to put my hands where he could see them, then telling me to put my bag of brochures on the wet ground(he yelled put your bag on the ground), and then put my hands on the hood of his car as he frisked me for guns and knives, and then I was treated to a Nazi style game of inquisition!! Then They threatened me if they had ever one complaint, or if I stepped foot on there private side walk again that they've have me run out of town or thrown in jail. Mind you, I'm Mormon and I served a two year mission in Finland for this church!!! The reason that I was there talking to students was because one of my friends that goes to school there was threatened with being kicked out of school if he continued in his political activism after that university cancelled all political clubs. Mind you that the school newspaper the day I got thrown on the hood of the car for nothing had a section about the candidates and the GOP race!!! What really makes me mad is that on our churches official web site it says"the lord has stressed that we aught to be concerned and involved in promoting good government." I guess just not on there property ironically enough!! But after my experience the other day and many other ones like this, I always look at the cup half full when I see anyone giving it there best to fight for the "message of liberty" and I think more of these armchair quarterbacks on this site would too if they got out into the real fray from time to time!!!

"shut up, you don't get a lawyer"

Anyone know which member of congress Dr. Paul was referring to in this speech?

ZIO-MEDIA-PROPAGANDA IS A DRUG!

1-19-12

Just have to say,

It is really bad when you have a tax cheat predator and a womanizing two-timer hypocrite running for office. Both of these corrupted rat bigots romney and gingrich are evil to the core and are NOT for the American People and their records PROVE IT!

THE CRIME IS THE ZIO-MEDIA-PROPAGANDA TV DRUG COVERS IS ALL UP!

Why aren't people asking more about mitt romney's tax havens and his tax cheating? Why is he above the tax requirements of the American People? How many tax haven shelter bank accounts does he have? This is where the poor people's money whose jobs he took is stored. How many in Switzerland too? How about all those poor people he put out of work for his personal profit? Is this what america wants? Another cheating lying predator corporate sock-puppet for the banksters that are supporting him? The people do not support him, the wall street zio-bankers do. How can anyone be so dam stupid as to vote for any of these two faced zio-puppet hypocritical criminals?

Why aren't Americans asking about the CFR newt gingrich and his two faced disdain and disrespect for all women in his treacherous actions in his marriages? Is this what the American family is all about? Women in America are complicit with, Honey, I hope you are OK with me having an extramarital affair and if not, I will divorce you and go home with her. This disgusting two timing rat is actually trying to be president of America?

He talks about jobs? Does anyone remember this newt clown was a major supporter of NAFTA and Agenda 21? That whooshing sound of your jobs going overseas? Look at his voting record is not in the interests of America, but for the globalist profiteers. He is a CFR NWO PUPPET!

Both of these clowns talk about jobs and yet their records show they have actually done more to kill jobs in America than to create them. Wake up people!!!! Do you all really want more of this criminality and corruption in your govt? Do you really want MORE WAR???

And how about those warmongering democrats pushing for more big govt and obama care taxes on every single thing the people can buy that went into effect on the first of January? The BFD they would not talk openly about. Every big govt agency profits from obama/romney care taxes. Never considered that after eight years of the bush agenda and profiteering wars, the democrats would push that exact same republican agenda and romney care package and still actually want four more years totaling 16 years of useless WARS and higher taxes.

It is unflipinbelievable to see how many of these stupid sheeple still support all the wars and corruption of obama the illegal alien puppet. It is in fact, totally ludicrous! On the cover of time's yellow journalism magazine it asked, what is wrong with those who oppose obama? The real question in Orwell's world is, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THESE OBAMABOTS AND ZOIDS THAT SUPPORT HIS WAR MONGERING HIGHER TAXES AGENDA FOR THE WALL STREET PUPPETEERS OF PROFIT AND PLUNDER?

And what has that done for you America? What has obama done for you personally? What have the senseless wars that only the oil companies and bankster rothschilds profit from done for you? How many people do you personally know that are doing better in their lives after 12 years of war AND THE BUSH/OBAMA TAX AND SPEND BIG GOVT POLICE STATE AGENDA?

If you feel a need to be sensible, look at the records people and vote for who has the record of PAST honesty to stand on. The choice is quite simple this coming election, if we actually have one. The people will vote as zazi's and for more totalitarian police state wars, or as Americans and for peace and resolution to our financial and foreign policies. It is a no brainier for anyone who can read. War, or not? Bring our troops home, or send more. Recover our economic structure, or all fail and depression and more war comes. Nazi Isramerica, or America the good ol USA? Easy choice. Only one candidate stands head and shoulders above all the others and it does not take a genus to figure it out. Ron Paul is America's Last Chance. ANY OTHER CHOICE FOR LEADERSHIP WILL END AMERICA AS YOU ALL KNOW IT! Choose well.

Just GO AHEAD AND MAKE A CHART comparing the past voting records of all the republicans and obama too and then you will see the truth. The question is, will you still deny your own eyes and heart of truth for what you believe on the drug TV and zio-media-propaganda following course with the sheeple headed off the cliff, or will you turn into the wind and lead the pack out of danger and destruction?

Follow your Heart and NOT the zio-media-propaganda.

In Service,

ROSE KING

Hidden fact

I am living in Singapore currently.
Singapore is hiding NDAA and many important news including Dr.Paul popularity. I even sent complaint mail to Straits Times which is Singapore's major news paper but no answer and nothing changed.
"Occupy Singapore" also failed because government set up law to detain any group gathering without any authorization and local are so afraid to speak up. I hard local schools have a cane to hit students with principal permission as well.
Many elite's Expat ignore local peoples life here but I am detached from those community and living like local. And I have many local friends who has no much hope or dream in their life.

I just want world to know the real Singapore and not the image you see in the airline advertise or picture.

This is the reality in Singapore.
Do not make US like this.

Quote John Randolph

"The people of this country, if ever they lose their liberties, will do it by sacrificing some great principle of government to temporary passion. There are certain great principles, which if they are not held inviolable, at all seasons, our liberty is gone. If we give them up, it is perfectly immaterial what is the character of our sovereign; whether he be King or President, elective or hereditary — it is perfectly immaterial what is his character — we shall be slaves — it is not an elective government which will preserve us."

Commerce with all nations, alliance with none.--Thomas Jefferson

620

I just got off the phone with the campaign. 620 was the number they gave to me when I asked how many times Dr. Paul had been the sole dissenting vote in the House of Representatives.

The congressional approval rating is now hovering around 10%. Would it then be correct to assume that on 620 separate occasions Ron Paul has been the lone voice of 90% of the American public?

This should not go unnoticed or unpublicized.

When small men cast great shadows, the hour is late.

Repeal section 1021 of NDAA

I have just emailed the following to my Senator and Representative. Please do the same and bring pressure to bare on the people who voted in favor of that travesty.

I am in receipt of your lengthy narrative about all the reasons it was a positive thing for you to vote YEA on the NDAA. Unfortunately, all the positive reasons you state for it's passage are far outweighed by the potential loss of liberty and freedom that this act has the potential to strip away from American Citizens.

The section of that bill which allows the President the power to have Citizens put under indefinite detention must be repealed. I would suggest to you in the strongest terms possible that you must support any amendment brought to the floor which will repeal that power.

Everyone who has supported this NDAA and does not do all in their power to restore the rights of American Citizens under our Constitution will certainly find that their political careers will be cut short at the very next opportunity the people have to vote.

Respectfully,

Here is the thing

They claim that part is not important and does not change any current law, Then I have 1 question.

Whats the big deal about removing it then?
congress better pass this.

"Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past you must fight just to keep them alive"

If it "does not change any current law"

If it "does not change any current law," then why is it there in the first place?

Freedom is my Worship Word!

I dread the day that he leaves Congress

Will there be no one left in that body that lives up to their oath and speaks out in support of Liberty? God help us.

Mitt Romney-Yes I Would Sign NDAA

In light of this could Ron Paul agree to a VP slot with Romney creating a RoM-Paul ticket?

Could Ron change his mind on the NDAA, the Fed?

NDAA is the MOST SHOCKING thing I've ever experienced

in my entire lifetime...

We are very frightened about a government that we see is wielding ever more and more power over the people at an ever more and more increased pace.

With this atrocity, the Constitution has officially been gutted, kicked, brutally beaten, and thrown out the window!

This is the final nail in the coffin for our notorious, mischief-making Congressmen & Senators. They certainly aren't OUR "representatives", are they.

Totally agree.

Now is the time for good men to stand up and run for office to rid the congress of the snakes and traitors.

END THE WAR'S'

My concerns about NDAA

Every leader who has had this power to use military force on their own populace based on allegations has used that power to silence their political rivals. By alleging their rivals, they can not only remove their rivals from competing they also remove those who support their rivals as well. I hope you among this community understand this threat.

True. Sadam Hussien was a perfect example

among many.

A C-Span floor speech by Ron Paul; this is UNPRECEDENTED!!!

THE people are LISTENING NOW!!!

This MUST come up in the debate; Ron Paul MUST "take the floor" and say the words "YouTube"; saying "Google my floor speech on the NDAA, and watch it on YouTube - SEE what this government and the Obama administration is doing to the American people; Mitt Romney, the mainstream media presumed frontrunner and guaranteed party nominee said he doesn't think the President would ABUSE this legislation - I personally think Mitt Romney should be asked again if he would SIGN something like this as President - it appears to me that DISSENT will no longer be tolerated in our land as this economy and our dollar collapses - there is no OTHER reason in the world for anyone in our Republic to draft/advance such tyrannical powers - there have always been sedition laws, but from the Patriot Act until now, we see a pattern mimicking the obnoxiousness of the Crown against the colonies(their own citizens) that led directly to our civil war; and this will STOP when I am President of the United States"

Maybe he should be in S. Carolina.

The campaign has lost a lot of steam in South Carolina. Now that Perry is exiting, Paul will likely be pushed to 4th place. That's 4th place, out of 4 spots. The media will lable that correctly. Last Place. Right where they want him. I don't know how the campaign let this happen.

Paragraph Number

I have been unable to get the final version of the bill from Thomas (http://thomas.loc.gov/home/thomas.php). When I was originally following the issue I was under the impression the offending paragraph was 1032 not 1022. Can anyone direct me to somewhere that has the final bill?

1021

He repeatedly refers to Section 1021.

Must be

something in the final version... I was stuck on sec 1031 and 1032 as well.

SEC. 1021. LIMITATION ON AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS FOR PLACING MARITIME PREPOSITIONING SHIP SQUADRONS ON REDUCED OPERATING STATUS.

The role of a farmer, in Fukuoka's mind, is an observer, not an intervener, of the natural order in his/her particular landscape. How is that any different than Hayek in regards to Economics?

Rick Perry has dropped OUT!

Rick Perry is out of the race!

Now it is only Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich standing between Ron Paul and the GOP Nominee!

DRUDGE THIS NOW! BEFORE THE DEBATE!

Compare that to Joe Lieberman

Joe Lieberman gives a scare tactic propaganda interview on the need for SOPA. In the midst his fear mongering diatribe he admits the purpose of his PIPA/SOPA bill:

We need the capacity for the president to say “Internet service provider, we’ve got to disconnect the American internet from all traffic coming in from another foreign country, or we’ve got to put a patch on this part of it.” … in catastrophic cases, were not going to do it every day. … Right now China can disconnect parts of its internet in the case of war. We need to have that right here too.
