Enough with the sheeple crap!

Are these your contributions to the campaign? Take this over to your own site, or anywhere else not associated with Ron Paul. Simply labeling those that do not agree with your views with such a broad brush helps nobody and hurts your candidate. These posts of yours can do nothing but alienate future Ron Paul supports that happen to come across them.
Yes, candidates can be judged by the actions of their supporters. Think before you post.

Individual liberty for all... except...
for anyone that says something that doesn't sit particularly well with you...
If you don't like what's being said then quit calling attention to it with your virtual bitch slaps. It's getting ridiculous on this site...
Dang... did I just do the exact same thing?? :) But seriously... give it a rest and focus on the topics you do agree with it. Things might be much more pleasant and productive around here...
It's not our fault the
It's not our fault the American people are so woefully ignorant, but I don't think the "sheeple" are necessarily to blame for their ignorance. It can be frustratingly difficult to try to reason with them, and I think that frustration leads to the name calling of referring to others as sheeple.
I have personally used the term quite frequently among friends, when I vent my own frustration of people that care more about their team winning a football game than they do about liberty winning out over tyranny. I heard one person say that they were going to vote for Romney, but they couldn't because his hair is too shiny. This is the pinnacle of sheepledom. Can we not call a spade a spade?
But, it is a dehumanizing derogatory term that attempts to lump individuals into a group, and it does not help the cause of attracting new people into Ron Paul's campaign by demeaning people by calling them names. I think it is much more effective to plant seeds of doubt in their minds, so that they begin to question the 400lb gorilla in sheep's clothing. Name calling only makes people defensive, and that is just part of sheeple nature.
It is an "elitist" term
This "elitist" mentality only supports the old media's tired mantra that Paul is a "fringe" candidate. And it bothers me to see it used so frequently used among those Paul supporters that hold non-Paul supporters in contempt. These are the same people we need to come over to support Dr. Paul if we are to have a any chance later this year.

RON PAUL said to have FUN.....
the poster of the sheep picture is joyfully playing to alleviate the pressure of the day. there is absolutely no harm in posting a picture of who you used to be.
that was me two years ago. i dont get mad when i see it. i chuckle and then move on. it is a nice motivator to see the past. helps you see where youve been and reaffirms why we are doing what we are doing.
it seems we start everyday here with someone bitching about what another has done. and the division begins.
this whole thread here is going to set the day.
