Geez dude, what happened to the idea this was a forum to espouse thoughts and beliefs along with the pics ? BTW, who the fuck put sand in the vaseline jar on the fossil night stand this mornin ?

I'll tell anyone with a brain to take a look at the ideologies Ron Paul uses as a basis for his platform in hopes that some measure of sanity just might be imparted into the coming election, and that even if one chooses NOT to vote for Ron Paul that they will at least temper the choice they make with some of the constitutional reasoning he brings with him in his campaign!

This country has gone so far astray of the rights belonging to our citizenry along with what the federal governments role is supposed to be as outlined within the Constitution that to me it's time to wake the fuck up and set a course to right our path or just take the big sleepin pill the establishment would prefer we all take and simply become comfortably numb as they go about the business of eliminating the rest of our freedoms while they rape our working class in the process.

If you think any of the other Republicans or most assureadley ANY of the Democratic candidates are sane choices, more power to ya buddy. For my $$ there ain't but one that even comes close to tryin to bring the sanity that's needed to the table as a president aside from Ron Paul and that's Fred Thompson.

While it's easy to sit on the sidelines and take pot shots at candidates ideas without presenting an alternative, my question is, WTF's the point in that form of mental masturbation ? Either present a rational dissenting opinion with a candidate choice positioned to embrace that ideology or stay outta the fray!

Lastly if you think our current ideologies on the war in Iraq or our posturing towards an invasion of Iran are good ideas and that Ron Pauls ideas are irrational I suggest you study a bit more about human nature, the roots of terrorism and look at one very curious aspect of support his campaign has mustered. Ron Paul is currently receiving a major share of his funding from retired and former military personnel, reportedly more so than ANY other candidate. If his war ideologies are so misguided would this seem a reasonable outcome of his position in those folks eyes ??

Keep on hawkin whatever platform and candidate you desire to align yourself with, but please do so from a posture of educated empowerment, not just spewing more of the same misguided crap that's already plentiful in every other candidates camp about Ron Paul.

I will say that if you agree with the concept of "nation building" in Iraq or anywhere else on the globe by the US I'd like to invite you to cite even ONE SINGLE example of success in such an endeavor in this century by the US government.

In truth all we seem to achieve in such efforts from my perspective is the generation of MORE enemies, not fewer of them, and if that seems like some form of protection for the American people I'm sorry to say we'll simply have to agree to disagree ol buddy
