A few months ago, we had a lot of GARBAGE posts on the right sidebar. They were all FRIVOLOUS stories about Ron Paul. Up until today I liked him. But his supporters have come here to spam LP, and now I DON'T like HIM or THEM. I was reasonable in the past and asked that articles be posted here that were NEWSWORTHY ABOUT HIM, WITH A LIMIT OF 2 A DAY. Just this evening, there were 13 posted. THIRTEEN!!! And not ONE of them had anything newsworthy to report. All of them were of the variety: "Alert, Ron Paul just scratched his crotch!!" Or "Ron Paul stepped in dogs**t". The supporters of Ron Paul have PROVEN that they cannot control themselves. "Reasonable" is not a word in their vocabulary. So, due to their IRRESPONSIBLE and IRRATIONAL behavior, their SPAMMING of Liberty Post...I have made a decision: FROM THE TIME THIS IS POSTED...NO RON PAUL ARTICLES ARE TO BE POSTED HERE AT ALL. EVER. (ONE EXCEPTION: IF HE GETS ASSASSINATED OR SOMETHING SIMILAR AND IS 24/7 ON ALL NEWS CHANNELS. [Probability is less than zero on that.]) ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Paulites: You did it to yourself. Not me. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Our bandwidth has gone from $240 to $365 for the past two months, and it has depleted our funds to negative zero. Which means I have to pony it up....and will need to run a fundraiser SOONER because of it. Face it folks, they stole it from YOU!! The contributors of LP!! I don't think those who contributed money to keep LP up and running meant for it to be used for some stupid unreasonble spammers to run amok on. So, just to be clear.... NO MORE ARTICLES ABOUT RON PAUL ARE PERMITED ON THIS WEBSITE. VIOLATORS WILL BE BANNED. NOT EVEN ONE NOT EVEN TWO ZERO!!! If this thread gets out of control...it goes to the Biker Bar or will be REPOSTED without the remarks, and the remarks will be removed. Note: For those who feel that they cannot stay on LP due to this decision: Sorry, but that's the way it is. Find or FUND someplace that is all Paul all the time. The abuse of LP ends today. I don't care who likes it or not. You've made your bed, now you get to sleep in it. This decision is NOT open for discussion. This is a "command decision" or what ever you choose to call it: Edict; directive; command, whatever. It is what it is. A RULE. And I don't care if you hate me or not.

I have to admit that a lot of Ron Paul articles are trivial and deal with minutia. I have no desire to see Ron Paul turned into an object of veneration like Bush is at Freakerland. He is a man. Yes- I am excited by his candidacy. Yes- I think he is right on most of the issues. But he is a man. One man. I don't need to know about every online poll. I don't need to know about his every appearence. General news forums shouldn't be clogged up with the daily doings of Ron Paul. Neither should they be clogged up with idiotic anti Paul posts and vanities (which is most of what is posted on LP by the way). I used to visit the Lew Rockwell blog several times a day- but 90 percent of what they blog about is Ron Paul now- non effing stop- nearly every post. Snoooooze. I visit less now. Look, Ron Paul is an exciting outside the Beltway candidate who is principled and refreshing. I am glad he is running. But frankly- our Mega DC government is way past the point where any one man can do much to reform it, reel it in, or even effect it that much. There is something a bit off- about a bunch of libertarians and old rightists who don't think the Presidency should have that much power- who constantly complain about how that branch has grown outside of all proportion- who bitch about people looking at the Presidency as some sort of Savior God King seat- cheering on a man night and day running for that seat- like any BOT or Demhead does for their two party fraud candidate.
You've lost me, Burke. Paul is not running like any BOT or Demhead does. He's "running" (I put "running" in quotes, because he's not really running anything) the most incredible campaign of my lifetime. Incredible, because it perfectly embodies the principles of Libertarianism. What we are witnessing, is spontaneous order created by free men with free minds coming together, bringing their individual creativity and energies to bear like never before in the modern political arena, creaming the top-down, centrally-planned old-style campaigns of the would-be tyrants of the DemGOP Establishment party. Don't ya get it, Burke? This campaign is not about one man. It's about we, the American people, rising up to take our government back. It is a new chapter in the history of freedom beginning to be written. Why are you so negative about this? Are you afraid we might...actually...WIN?
I don't see him as being negative, but I've also noticed a certain cult-like adoration for this one man that I find disturbing, because it is the same mentality of the bots, just the other side of the coin. I will most likely vote for Ron Paul, but I'm not going to become obsessed with him.
Point taken, and I there's obviously a level of excitement about Ron Paul from freedom lovers that's unprecedented. Cult-like? Okay, I'll concede that. But in this case, it's warranted. And it's not about Ron Paul. It's about his candidacy. He mentioned on one of his interviews that it wasn't him that people were excited about, but his ideas of freedom. And given the state of the nation, the long train of presidents sold to special interests and being clueless about the Constitution and so many other things, I think we can permit ourselves a cult-like excitement over the possibility of a President Paul.
Paul mentioned that today with Shifty Schieffer, it is the message not him. Some people that drag out that cult BS either are to dense to understand or are trying to undermine Paul. Paul has exactly NOTHING going for him as far as a cult is concerned, bad voice, too often poor delivery and no physical attraction, he has a message and that is why people donate money.
I think Dr.Paul's got a lot going on the 'looks' department. He's fit, he looks you in the eye, and doesn't seem like he waiting for an opportunity to skin you. All things considered, I find him a very good-looking man.
lod Stand Paul side by side with Romney, let the ladies make their choice.
Stand Paul side by side with Romney, let the ladies make their choice. Paul doesnt have that type of appeal.. Romney is I suppose some would say good looking but hes not the type I was ever attracted to.. then he opens his mouth.. gack.
Many years ago I watched Robert Kennedy when he ran for Senator from NY. Most of the crowd at the airport were women. As they were leaving I asked one what Kennedy had to say that she liked. She paused and then said, "I dont know what he said, but he said it well."
One thing the web has done for me is show me how irrelevant looks are. I've found a lot of men whose pictures do not stand up to just how attractive they really are.
That include me?
You, my dear, are just flat handsome period. Totally attractive all the way around. I'm extremely infatuated with you.
Great.. Now I have to deal with 82 with a big head... (insert head slapping smiley here) evil grin! LOL
What do you mean big head. I haven't changed a bit.
Damn, with the exception of the hair, that picture looks just like an old pothead buddy of mine. LOL Look at the eyes!
I would like someone to explain something to me.. I left LP cause I recognized it was becoming an FR Annex.. same bullshit different site.. how is it that people can continue to post at a site where the owner does things like this? Do those people actually ENJOY being treated like shit? Just curious..
Beats the hell out of me. To me it's like going to the zoo and watching the monkeys throw shit at each other.
Yeah, but the popcorn at home is a lot fresher.
