Uh Oh, the quality of the Daily Paul has gone off the Deep End...

Before I get to the point of this thread, I want to take the time to bump this thread:

http://www.dailypaul.com/...

BJ Lawson has called for a last minute money bomb. They are out of funds, and need more for a last minute mailer, more constitutions to hand out to voters at the polls, and money for ads to combat the negative attack ads from David Price.

If you can spare anything, even if it's just $5-10, please donate.

The above thread/link is waaayyyy more important than this one. I'm disappointed that this post keeps getting discussed, when a legitimate one like the above is ignored.

**************************
Now to the original post:

Wow, so, I respect the right for people to believe what they want, but apparently, other people here, people who I thought were for liberty, don't.

Instead, it seems that if you do not unconditionally accept and support 9/11 truth theories, you are labeled a moron, "gay," a "danger to yourself and your children," etc.

So, I don't know when the Daily Paul abandoned reason, but I have noticed a steady decline in quality over the last few months. Additionally, it's as if nobody here really practices the philosophy of liberty in their own life, or really accepts/believes it. If they did, we wouldn't have people, who are supposed to be on the same side, attacking people over the difference of opinion of irrelevant/unrelated topics. So, since so many have apparently learned nothing, here's a refresher course:

http://www.youtube.com/wa...

Sometimes, people fall back asleep I guess.

Additionally, I would just like to say, I don't believe the government is competent enough to pull off a huge conspiracy like 9/11, without something being leaked, someone refusing, etc. Do you honestly believe, there are people at all levels, who knew, and enthusiastically and willingly chose to kill their fellow citizens and themselves?

I agree, there are some sketchy facts about 9/11, but that doesn't mean that the government did it. If I've learned anything, it's that government can't do anything. I would also add that I do support new investigations.

I think 9/11 truth theories damage and disregard our arguments for a non-interventionist foreign policy. Under that belief, we hold that 9/11 was the result of blow-back from bad, American interventionist actions. Osama bin Laden admitted and explained his actions (and I don't want to hear the baseless arguments that bin Laden works for the CIA). I'm sorry, but all that 9/11 truth has given is speculation, no PROOF. The "evidence" they provide leads only to more split speculation. Proof would be witnesses, testimony, physical documents, e-mails, plans, documented conversations, and scientific evidence that is accepted by the MAJORITY of the scientific community. Now, I'm not saying 9/11 wasn't an inside job.... it certainly could have been. But with the evidence that has been gathered so far, I think that conclusion is too much of a jump, and I'm disappointed to see people here attack others over this.

Lastly, I would just remind everyone that Ron Paul also does not accept 9/11 truth theories. Does that mean he's also a moron?

And, before you post any comments, I would remind you, this thread is not intended to discuss the validity of 9/11 truth theories. It is not intended to continue to insult people on either side of that debate. It is meant to discuss the decline in quality, and the rise of rudeness.

LOL

Its really simple, if you want to lie to people do it else where. Anytime lies, deflections, or disinformation is posted we will answer it and always win because truth can not be disproven.

If you dont want to see as many threads then my suggestion to all the shills and disinfo agents is to stop trying to spread lies.

Me Im fine with it the more you struggle against the truth the more people take enough interest to look into it themselves. When that happens 2 types of people come away. The blissfully ignorant who simply can not accept the truth as it conflicts with their reality, which is bound to happen often due to the state of our nation, and the educated which means our numbers grow strongers and the cycle starts again.

You see we will never stop, never give up or in till the truth is as plain to all as the sky is blue.

But I invite you to fuel our effort by trying to fool others, we lose some who are hopelessyly ignorant or willfully so, but we game 10 for each loss.

Mathmatics is great isnt it!!

The quality is still here...

....But the DP is a clearing house for thoughts and ideas, so, we have to take the nuts along with everyone else and do our best to steer the conversation.
I mean, come on, when I want to know the latest on anything I come here not LRC.

I think your analysis is correct

The "bad" comes with the "good" in our "clearing house" called the DP!

Uh oh

I see this thread since nearly three days on the 'Active Forum Topics'. Have we grown a bit masochistic recently?

Don't blame the rest of the world.We did vote for Ron Paul!

Freedom brings People together

Agreed

The Daily Paul is a great forum, but there is definitely an excess of hate and spite by a few, who contribute little more than slander towards anyone who disagrees with their own personal opinion.

Hopefully they'll either learn to stop, or go practice their authoritarian approach elsewhere.

People should be expressing our own ideas, rather than relentlessly insulting others'.

Well then.. For all you who still think

That parts of the government weren't complicit. please explain this

Can jet fuel really demolish steel buildings?

Can 24,000 gallons of jet fuel (kerosene) have enough potential energy to:

- Weaken 800,000 tonnes of steel in around 10 seconds of free-fall. Steel melts at temperatures above 1532 C (2790 F). It is a fact
that fuel-air fires only burn between 233-300 C (metal cannot get
hotter than the temperature of its heat source, fire, and steel
can distribute heat to neighbouring steel structures. Heat and
temperature "flows" from hotter to colder bodies, so the steel
could never get hotter than 250 C in reality, in still air fire.

- Convert all the solid concrete floor slabs into nothing but
fine powder dust, with no pancaking floors left sitting on top of
each other?

- Execute PERFECT straight-down, symmetrical implosions?

- Create giant pools of molten metal, which stayed red to yellow
hot (600 C to 1100 C) for up to 6-weeks after 9/11, despite most
of the jet fuel being consumed in the fireball explosions when
the planes impacted the buildings?

More molten metal videos seen from several different cameras:
http://video.google.com/v...

If kerosene (jet fuel) burning in air can really do all this damage,
then why do controlled demolition engineers bother spending weeks to
carefully prepare high-rise buildings with explosive charges and
steel cutting charges when they can just use a few hundred litres
of kerosene?

Why do foundrymen and materials engineers have to use expensive
induction furnaces, blast furnaces or arc furnaces to melt steel,
if they can melt steel with some kerosene (jet fuel) which is much
cheaper? Think about it!

Why is it that engineers design motorcycle and car engine pistons
and cylinders using iron and alloy steel, if these components are
constantly exposed to FIRE AND COMBUSTIONS? Why is it that our
cooking pots, frying pans and Barbeque hot plates are made out of
steel, and have you noticed any of these melting or sagging due to
direct exposure to gas flames or air fires? Try it! See if you
can get liquid molten iron from a jet-fuel air fire! See if you
can even melt a piece of aluminium foil (melting point 650 C) in an
air fire, using as much fuel as you like, for as long as you like.

Try it! Try to melt aluminium foil with your gas stove or by using
a kerosene (jet fuel) air fire! HINT:
Jet engines are combustion engines made with steel blades

Jet engines are combustion engines that BURN kerosene, and YES, the
turbine blades and engine parts themselves are made out of steel,
with very similar melting properties to the steel used on the WTC
buildings. (melts at 1532 C)

Engineers know that steel is still strong up to 1200 C, and jet
fuel air-fire combustions do not significantly weaken steel. Even
up to 650 C, steel is still at half of its full strength, so there
is no way you can get those giant buildings to collapse at the speed
of free-fall (as if the lower materials are just as weak as air)...
This is scientifically impossible and cannot be performed
experimentally, even under controlled conditions. Try it yourself!

If you
doubt what I am saying, run the above tests for yourself and try to
create molten steel, or powderised concrete, just from kerosene air
fire alone.

Do your own research:

Name ONE steel-frame building that
caught on fire and collapsed all the way
down to the ground levels!... Out of the
dozens of skyscraper fires in the last
100 years, JUST NAME ONE TALL
STEEL BUILDING that was TOTALLY
destroyed, due to fire and gravity alone.

Then you have an example to prove that
WTC 7, a building that was not hit by
any plane, could collapse completely
about 7 hours after the Twin Towers fell.

Just name ONE steel building that has
collapsed due to fire before or after 9/11
and you have your precedent that the
official explanation of fire melting steel,
and pulverising concrete, is possible...

Try to get powderised concrete just by
burning it with jet fuel fire! Go on!

Here are links that have explanations to your claims.

***"There was a 3 to 4 inch layer of concrete on the average floor. There were reinforced concrete floors in the core as well. Contrary to what some conspiracy theorists say, the core walls were NOT concrete reinforced. The columns in the core were also not incased in concrete. This was an error made by the BBC which grew a life of its own. Here is the article. Note the date it was created, Sept. 13, 2001, just 2 das after the collapse."

***Concrete removal
"Since the end of WWII builders designed most of the concrete from the modern high-rise constriction. First concrete they eliminated was the stone exterior wall. They replace them with the “curtain walls of glass, sheet steel, or plastics. This curtain wall acted as a lightweight skin to enclose the structure from the outside elements. Next the 8-inch thick concrete floors went. They were replaced with a combination of 2 or 3 inches of concrete on top of thin corrugated steel sheets. Next the masonry enclosure for stairs and elevators were replaced with several layers of sheet rock. Then the masonry smoke proof tower was eliminated in the 1968 building code. It contained too much concrete weight and took up valuable floor space. Then the solid steel beam was replace by the steel truss. And finally the concrete and brick encasement of steel columns girders and floor supports was eliminated. A lightweight spray-on coating of asbestos or mineral fiber was sprayed over the steel. This coating provided fireproofing. After asbestos was discovered hazardous vermiculite or volcanic rock ash substance was used as a spray-on coating for steel. Outside of the foundation walls and a thin 2 or 3 inches of floors surface, concrete has almost been eliminated from high-rise office building construction. If you look at the WTC rubble at ground zero you see very little concrete and lots of twisted steel."

Who claimed that the concrete was powderised(sic) by burning it with jet fuel fire?? The answer: NO ONE.

This one is just for you Oruval. It addresses the claim, the one you assert constantly on DP, that the portions of the Twin Towers above the impact zones should have toppled over.

just dont be dissin' the 17 foot pet shark in Australia thread

that ones pretty cool.

Live Free or Diebold

This site went to hell way

This site went to hell way back when the site owner posted shit that showed he did not know what the hell was going on!!!!

People buy guns and ammo and food, these people here will be cannon fodder because they only go half way and think protesting is going to help, lol. You all want peace and think you will control others by saying that, when the shooting starts will you shoot or be shot, will you hope for the government to save you?

Peacefull revolution is not an option as they laugh at you when you say peace because to them peace is what they want, you all dead so they can live in peace.

If you do not have at least 5 different cal. weapons and 10,000 rounds for each you will not even make it past the first round, to me all you peacefull types are looking pretty good, I may be wearing your shoes and living in your house soon as you lay dead in the garage. fucking wake up!!!

You will not have a choice soon

Paul.

Maybe "They" will realize you are just an angry, racist, atheist who is depressed and a lonely soul with personal problems and you "wouldn't ever really kill anyone".

OR THEY JUST COME GET YOU FIRST.

You are claiming some pretty serious stuff on this site and I fear for your family and especially your 2 beautiful boys. They won't understand, trust me.

You have a lot to lose and you act like you don't.

Just my too sense.

wtf are you talking about,

wtf are you talking about, you know nothing, my 2 boys, you fear for me?angry depressed atheist racist? Haha your a disinfo agent or you are just in denial. Any racist involved in my unit will get a bullet in the head, we need everyone to get this job done. If you think you are gonna send a black or an indian etc. to get killed just because of their race you will soon have your brains splattered.
Do not pretend you know me, you may get away with pretending things are going to shape up by themselves, but that crap does not work with me.

I didn't buy all the guns and ammo for nothing, look at all the ammo shortages atm, It is not only me, blackwater is out there trying to buy up the ammo before we can get it. Why would they do that?

I will be at the front lines in this war when it starts, did you notice I said when and not if? It will start!!!

I apologize.

They will probably be right when the make you disappear.

Hey, I expect the shit to hit the fan. You are just outting yourself too soon. Keep talking, they will get enough. You are being watched. Don't kid yourself, the internet is NOT anonymous.

I wish you no harm, I want you and the prepared to be ready, not cleaned up.

And those personal comments are only representative of your own expressions in the "anonymous" sea we call the internet.

I will leave you to your rants, and bother you no more. Don't say you weren't warned though.

You will be taken out in seconds

A violent revolution is what "they" hope for. It will be used to fracture groups and pit one side against the other. They want people like you to start "shooting". "They" count on it. Violence is one of their best tools. Watch what happens when a "patriot" kills one soldier or police officer. Watch how quickly the "war" starts. They need us to be violent.

Hey ....

You can't say that.

Now I agree with you on something.

WAHOR!!
http://www.dailypaul.com/...

They need people like you to

They need people like you to think as you do, that is how we got into this mess in the first place, again, it does not matter what you think. You are not in control of others. You would burry your guns? I will go in the first round as I would rather die than live in this hell. If anyone starts shooting I will be there as soon as I can to help them, if they are dead then so be it, I will take out as many as I can before I am dead. I welcome the so feared Marshall law and them trying to take us off to camps, bring it on!!!

I've been ready for 20 years, not like the others that have just woke up to this crap. They will not kill me in seconds, I will kill them in seconds, microwave weapons can be used by both sides.

You will simply help start the slaughter

You'll be taken out at 500 yards. Bang. Violence is a fools game.

Fedor get your

young dumb ass back over on your zietgiest threads.

good!! let's get it

good!! let's get it started, I do not live in fear like you do.

Give them hell!

I'm with you. Gutless wimps will do nothing to save this nation.

I want to win

Fear: False Evidence Appearing Real

Our founding fathers were tricked. The war never ended. "They" just retreated and came back through the back door. That is not victory. We need to do more than destroy our country with violence.

Violence created our country

Suggest you review your history Fedor. It's about to happen again, I fear.

for me today...

Bump and then bump again...

I think we are stuck with the following.

we are really all stuck with wanting the same thing.

We are stuck with wanting the same thing for the same reasons.

Dr.Paul has never claimed to be our leader.

He has always been happy to be a spokesman and teacher and has been highly successful at this.

We are not organized.

I deeply believe that this total lack of organization is the reason for our success.

Yes we are successful. We are still here. The Doc is on TV every week sometimes twice.

Whenever he gets on tv he TELLS THE TRUTH.

He has done this for well over a year in the face of insults and ridicule.

The truther folks are regrettably infiltrated and coopted by the folks in charge. It is rather clever as it has given the word TRUTH a "bad" name in the media. think about it. Destroy the concept and credibilty of "truth?" Mission accomplished truth movement!

Back to the point. Everyone is welcome here. Including "agent provocateurs."

The presence of folks trying to guide...derail...align us with low credibility folks...get us fighting over nothing...etc...is just a COMPLIMENT.

They are scared of us and this is why and it has ALWAYS been the reason why.

We don't really have a face that is aligned with the movement. Sure we got the Doc, but, he always gives credit to all of the scattered and disorganized folks that have brought the movement this far.

This movement is not a cult of personality that is going to fold up and go away after the election. We love the Doc but it ain't about the doc.

It was sort of about the Doc back in the primaries but all of the "personality cult" folks left.

All that is left is us.

We are the ones that the people who ordered thet attack on Syria the other day are scared sh%$ less of.

We are the one who are still here.

We are not organized so THEY CAN'T GET TO US.

We know the truth and we do what the doc does and that is tell the truth to everyone we know JUST LIKE the Doc does.

There is no free media. I have studied media for 30 years...there is no free media except for these discussion forums.

I know guys who own and run newspapers.

I know Washington Bureau chiefs and I know network TV news people and there is no free media.

You know all these "counter" websites?

99% of them are not free.

They are controlled coopted etc.

In a forum like this there is plenty of garbage...but THERE IS PLENTY OF TRUTH.

We got the Doc telling the truth every day. We got as many poster as possible telling the truth every day and we got the folks who are dumb enough to think they can "stop" liberty with words.

The human heart beats every moment of every life and this heart knows the truth.

Keep telling it over and over again...it is working.

Spreading the idea is

Spreading the idea is working, but I don't think disorganization is a strength. It's a definite weakness.

SUPPORT OUR FOUNDERS' AMERICA
Support the Constitution of the United States

I agree,

Dr. Paul was our Thomas Jefferson, what we need now is a George Washington.

Thank you for this optimistic post.

I feel your pain...

I know exactly what you're saying VoR. I stopped coming to this site for any real debate or insight the day I saw an Alex Jones video on the front page advocating that flouride in our toothpaste and water was a conspiracy to lower our IQ by 10-15 points. Really? Worse yet I seem to remember Alex Jones' face talking to me superimposed over a swirling black and red background. Ridiculous...

The problem is that Ron Paul has left and he has "his own" site and purpose now... www.campaignforliberty.co...
Check it out VoR, I think the discussions there focus much more on facts and practical application of our resources to get things done. As for the dailypaul, it's still fun to read and sometimes catch an occasional video.

So did you do any research

So did you do any research on fluoride and look at the science or are you just repeating media mantra BS so you won't look like a conspiracy nut to your friends and family?

You see most people who ridicule stuff like this have never really looked at the facts their media programming just kicks in and the desire to fit in takes over and they go with the herd and don't even realize it. Most don't have the courage to examine the topic with any objectivity. Some few think they do but they hang their hat on the first article they read that agrees with their media programming. So they continue to ridicule anyone who disagrees with them even though they really don't know either way if there is any truth to the matter.

hope the daily Paul does not

hope the daily Paul does not reflect what will happen to the Liberty movement Ron Paul has started!

I am more concerned about the return of my money than the return on my money. --Mark Twain

SIERRA, it does and will.

The Daily Paul is reflective of where the whole movement is going.

I believe we should and must unite behind Chuck Baldwin. The torch has officially been passed, in practical terms. Ron Paul is not going to run again.

The Libertarian Party is compromised/has jumped the shark.

I believe the Republicans chose Sarah Palin as a figurehead to pull in our movement. With some it will work--they will roll over and go to sleep, and join the mainstream GOP. Based on posts I've read, some people here have already done so.

We have to unite behind a candidate for 2012. I doubt Jesse Ventura wants anything but notoriety.

That leaves Chuck. Will anyone listen? I don't know.

SUPPORT OUR FOUNDERS' AMERICA
Support the Constitution of the United States

You mean crash & burn territory...

With a complete takeover and co-opting by a bunch of wacko socialists? (Why not, it would make it fit with virtually every other political group then, right?)

Just a reminder.... this

Just a reminder.... this thread is not to debate my or anyone else's views on 9/11. I really don't understand how my opinion or your opinion justifies name calling. That, along with the issue of the decline in quality/relevance of posts, and the ridiculous number of 9/11 and Zeitgeist posts, are the issue.

I probably won't even read your post, so keep that in mind if you want to waste your time arguing/attacking me. I have stuff to do. (class, my job, work, helping local candidates for Congress, etc.).

How is discussing 9/11 ever ridiculous?

It is the event that changed our entire world. There is so much evidence against the government that it should be discussed on every single thread. If you have a problem with a couple of 9/11 threads then bury your head in the sand and ignore the facts with the rest of America.

"There can be only one permanent revolution - a moral one: The regeneration of the inner man."
—Tolstoy

discussing it is not

discussing it is not ridiculous, the NUMBER of posts/threads about it on this site IS. It's irritating to come here, either to share information, or to gather it, and practically every post is about irrelevant topics... not that 9/11 is not important, but we're in the middle of the election, and we're supposed to be working to help people with our message get into office, but instead, more than half the board is always clogged up with silly debates about Zeitgeist, the technicalities of 9/11, or other theories in which people are convinced/paranoid that someone is constantly out to get them. I'm not saying anyone is right or wrong. I want to talk about the REAL issues- ones that I can actually do something about- like helping candidates, contacting others/politicians, etc. etc. etc. Over the last couple of months, coming here has honestly been about as bad as listening to McCain and Obama "debate" the issues. They're not talking about anything!

We're never going to be able to change anything if we don't get people who are on our side elected.... and those people are never going to get elected if we don't help them. And it seems that's not going to happen, because we waste all our time arguing over things like Zeitgeist, 9/11, acting like children, and calling each other unwarranted names. I'm sick of that, alright. If you want to continue all of that, fine, that's your choice, but don't drag the rest of us who are here for a purpose into it. Don't post 20 threads about the same thing. When Zeitgeist came out, virtually every thread was about it. As a result, all the good/important threads were bumped down and missed by those of us looking for real information. Either find a new place to rabidly discuss that stuff, or at least keep it to a minimum here so that others can also use this site. I'm open to other view points/ideas, but I don't want t hear about the same topic over and over and over again.

and yet

You this thread is nothing but another post, focusing on the very subject your tired of. Cept it must be your perspective!

Your transparent....

This has been fun

The Daily Paul has been a great forum and we all had great expectations for Dr. Paul. I still like reading the viewpoints expressed here. It's just that we don't have a candidate anymore. It's too bad, I really think Ron Paul could have captured the frustration of pissed of Americans if he would have had a professional team running his campaign, and just went head to head with the established status quo GOP Vs. DEM. This was the year! I'm not much on the fancy Rasmussen or Zogby polls, but a real polling of the people would reveal that about 80% of folks are pretty much fed up with both parties. So, why can't anybody take advantage of this?

You got me. I've been

You got me. I've been bellowing that we need a good Third Party every other post since Super Tuesday.

The movement is doomed unless McCain wins. I've figured that out after thnking about it all weekend. McCain is the only thing that is going to politically motivate this movement to get off its ass, ideologically speaking, and promote a Third Party. The War Party will simply absorb the C4L like the Borg if the notion of "taking back the GOP" is pursued.

If Obama wins, everyone will split up into camps and many will simply break off into survivalism (which is all well and good on its own merits, but I was hoping for more).

No leader and no purpose = decline in quality

This Revolution has been wavering since Ron Paul stopped seriously campaigning.

Others tried to fill that void of leadership with other movements (9/11 truthing, Zeitgeist, Christianity, third parties, buy gold, anti-McCain, anti-Obama, etc.). I myself have tried to get the Revolution to focus on self-empowerment, but I, like all others, really don't have the cred...and thus pretty much ignored.

Basically, we are splintering...devolving...unraveling.

No one here, except possible plants here to destroy us, like it.

I ask everyone to please have the strength to be patient...we must endure this period of inaction...and not rip each others' throats out.

Again, most Americans (most people) believe in the founding principles. We only have to expose the truth that neither political party are actually following these principles. This 'enlightenment' is scary to a lot of people...for it shakes their security to the core. So we must also temper our message with the truth that the government isn't 100% evil...cuz it isn't.

There's only one key problem.

It comes down "NO CAMPAIGN".

All of us are here because Ron Paul was running for President. That's the gel that clumped the movement together, and that is the only glue that is going to hold the movement together.

If we don't unite behind a single presidential candidate, very soon, the movement is going to dissolve.

That's the truth, folks. Sorry if it's unpleasant to hear.

Too late for uniting behind a single presidential candidate

1. The election is around the corner.

2. Ron Paul purposely dispersed us to various third parties AND said to not write him in...he couldn't have more splintered us if he tried...that still bothers me.

3. The third party candidates are completely unworthy.

So it looks like we will have to wait four years to unite behind someone.

Can we last until then?
