1) He's a "truther" by association - He panders and plays to that group of people who believe the events of Sep 11, were an "inside job" without going so far as to say "Fire won't melt steel!" 2) He's called for a Mcarthiesque reopening of the 9/11 Commission, basing it this time on popular opinion, conspiracy theory, and politics rather than fact. - This one goes hand in hand with item 1. 3) He's selling the "We aren't hated because of our freedoms, we are hated because of our Middle Eastern Policies" without ever acknowledging that our polices there are in direct response to the past and current policies of nation states in the Middle East. 4) He's for gay marriage, but against gay adoption. - Here we are total polar opposites. I'm against gay marriage because it brings nothing to the state, but for gay adoption because any stable home for a child is better than a foster home or orphanage. 5) He's stated he'd like to go back to the "gold standard". - This makes baby economists weep. 6) He's against stem cell research 7) He's "touchy feely" when it comes to crime and punishment 8) He's against free trade (or at least his voting record is). 9) He's never seen a defense appropriation bill he liked. - Yes we can fight our enemies armed with sticks and stones! 10) He's pro "illegal immigration". And lastly... The ACLU likes him. Or more seriously, his voting record is a mess. Its almost like he's voted for and then against the same ideas in different bills just so he could appear to be a moderate or something. As I believe actions (in this case votes) speak louder than campaign promises this makes it very difficult for me to believe what Ron really thinks.

LIAR.
LIAR. And that little piece of disingenuousness just got canofcrap bozod. Another lie- posting shill like BAC; someone not here to debate honestly, but to spam, shill and obfuscate with lies.
I always love replying to petulant folks who wish to ignore me. Actually, you're right. I think Ron Paul would like to toss illegal families and their children into the Rio Grande and say "swim for it and don't come back." So, I'd be interested to know where the author is coming from.
You and your bosses are scared white. As well you should be. Paul's integrity and sterling reputation is so far beyond your ability to ding that you are reduced to posting gibberish hoping something, anything will be interpreted as legit and well founded. Paul has delivered thousands of babies, perhaps hundreds at no charge for poor patients, many of them Hispanic. He's never uttered a mean spirited statement in over twenty years that I've followed his career. Your attempt at character assassination is a bit ambitious for someone with your obvious limitations, and everything Paul says and does is completely consistent with his (and our) desire to restore our republic. You implied that he votes differently on the same bills, but if you weren't a political dilettante you'd know that even sponsors of bills vote against undesirable amendments or motions for cloture or rules suspension. He doesn't vote against a bill after voting for it (or vice versa) if it is substantially intact and unchanged, (no cloak room skullduggery) and I challenge you to cite one example and prove this statement false. So, you fling non specific poo which is not only unworthy of serious debate but impossible to dispute since you carefully avoid specifics. Try this. Tell us who you support and why so we can dismiss you. Obviously there isn't an announced candidate anywhere that you dare juxtapose with Paul, and your failure to offer a name is no oversight. (CLUE: Rumsfeld is not a candidate, and he couldn't get elected to the job of chief fluffer in the shower at Leavenworth which is where he is going if he doesn't expire first.) I'm guessing that you work for H&R Block and you're petrified of having to do honest labor, perhaps even heavy lifting once the totally useless tax prep industry is dismantled. Am I right? Since misrepresentation born of desperation flows so readily from your fingers it's quite logical to assume that you are a pack rat for IRS receipts or some other equally disreputable swindle. So, your intellectual dishonesty + political schizophrenia = non producing bureaucrat and enemy of the constitution, and therefore the enemy of freedom loving patriots.
I don't want a President who believes the best way not to be attacked by Islamic terrorists is to allow them to dictate our foreign policy. He is out of touch with the 21st Century.
Again with the slippery? Let me try again. Who.... Do.... You.... Want? No offense, but you cannot offer a frontal assault and simultaneously cower away from exposing your true agenda if you expect to be anything other than an object of political whimsy here. This isn't a Pauly Shore movie, my young friend. Sooner or later you have to make a bold, hairy-chested move and say something or, once you're humor potential has been exhausted we'll simply lose interest in you. And, believe me, that's a chilly place where no self respecting person would ever want to find her or himself. "I'm Barnacle Bill The Sailor...."
Do.... You.... Want? Thompson, Romney, Giuiliani In that order.
LOL
