Despite rumors that various splinter forces within the Republican party are attempting to block Ron Paul's fateful chairmanship of the Monetary Policy Subcommittee, we now have confirmation that the only sane politician left will now be Ben Bernanke's direct nemesis during any and all future Congressional spectacles starring the printing unchallenged one. And with US debt creeping ever closer to the debt ceiling, coupled with the dollar for dollar monetization of the US deficit, such spectacles will soon be plenty.
Fast forward to 3:30 in the clip for the announcement.
Eric isn't asking which horse you DID support (which you made clear was none) but which horse, IN HINDSIGHT, you WOULD have supported if you knew what you know NOW? And I concur, you have NOT yet answered the question.
The only one trying to create an underground Ron Paul support group is Goldi on her own site. Think about that for a moment and maybe you'll know what I'm talking about.
But I'll tell you THIS. Ron Paul did such an OUTSTANDING job educating Americans about war, the economy, and liberty that I would have given him money again knowing full well how his campaign went, even if he didn't go 3rd party.
There was no real hope of his getting elected regardless of what he did. What he did accomplish was one of the most amazing SPEAKING TOURS in the history of America in the guise of a presidential campaign. In any case, his new position in the monetary subcommittee makes it less likely that he will run for prez in 2012.
Hate him all you want, but you offer no solutions.

That he did. And NO ONE here championed his cause financially any more than myself.
When money was solicited, the silence on 4um was deafening. Those that chose to talk the talk only, know who they are.
I did many long years in backroom politics, and ALWAYS the loudest talkers did not walk the walk. When money is the subject, the hearing of most goes South, it was done here on 4um by myself and a few others.
I know who talked the talk and what few walked the walk. Still friends, but that is the way it is with politics.
