Seriously, Ron Paul Kicked Butt Tonite!

But Ron Paul just talks SO MUCH reality and common sense vs. the political BS the others spew. Loved the thing about "They're not cutting a trillion. They're not cutting squat. It's just all talk."
Also the talk on the war on drugs was awesome!

The only other guy who impressed me AT ALL was Newt.

 

Jon Hunstman schooled Mitt "Flip Flop" Romney, especially when he informed Princess Mitt that the President is the Commander in Chief, not the Delegater-in-Chief like Romney seems to believe.

It was quite obvious from the debate that both Herman Cain and Mitt "Flip Flop" Romney have absolutely no clue on foreign policy and would simply do what George Dumbya Bush did when faced with tough choices: let others make decisions for him. Which is why we are in the mess we find ourselves in, both domestically and globally.

I also liked how Mitt "Flip Flop" Romney blatantly lied about his first name, and referred to himself as "Commander in Cheese" twice when he got flustered by Huntman's whoopin'. LOL! Watch the replay on Youtube.

 

Ron Paul is an isolationist. Not to mention, naive. He actually believes that if we just leave al Qaeda alone and stay of of THEIR business, we won't have a problem with them.

GEEZ.

 

Is that why Obama appointed the 12 for the Super Committe that went nowhere? Sounds like he was the Delegater-In-Chief on that one.

Romney would mop the floor in a debate with Mr. Corpse Man Obama. Obama would need his teleprompter as his usual crutch.

 

Looks up definition of Isolationism...

"The policy or doctrine of trying to isolate one's country from the affairs of other nations by declining to enter into alliances, foreign economic commitments, international agreements, and generally attempting to make one's economy entirely self-reliant; seeking to devote the entire efforts of one's country to its own advancement, both diplomatically and economically, while remaining in a state of peace by avoiding foreign entanglements and responsibilities"

It appears you're wrong about Ron Paul's position again... I never understood why people such as yourself spew such crap as if Ron Paul is advocating 16th Century Japan Foreign Policies.

Let me further clarify!

Non-interventionism – Political rulers should avoid entangling alliances with other nations and avoid all wars not related to direct territorial differences (self-defense).
Protectionism – There should be legal barriers to control trade and cultural exchange with people in other states.

 

Which Romney would mop the floor with Obama? The pro-choice, pro-man made global warming, pro-amnesty, pro-gun control, pro-bailouts, pro-stimulus, anti-Reagan, pro-individual healthcare mandate Romney?

Or the ********* Romney? Or the pro-life, anti-global warming, anti-amnesty, pro-2nd amendement, anti-stimulus, pro-Reagan, anti-Romneycare Romney?

 

Repeating a lie doesnt make it a truth. I suggest you look up the term isolationist. Get someone to explain it to you. Then go into a dark room and really delve into it. If you still dont get it start at looking up the term again and go from there.

 

So what is his policy to deal with the Islamic terrorist movement that wants to kill us?

 

Guess you missed the bit when Ron Paul even spoke for bringing back Letters of Marque and Reprisal rather than actively doing ground invasions.

Letters of marque and reprisal are commissions or warrants issued to someone to commit what would otherwise be acts of piracy. They will normally contain the following first three elements, unless they imply or refer to a declaration of war to define the enemies, and may optionally contain the remainder:

1. Names person, authorizes him to pass beyond borders with forces under his command.
2. Specifies nationality of targets for action.
3. Authorizes seizure or destruction of assets or personnel of target nationality.
4. Describes offense for which commission is issued as reprisal.
5. Restriction on time, manner, place, or amount of reprisal.

 

Not needlessly sacraficing our young people to IED's.

What is your policy on dealing with not getting mugged/murdered? You stay out of the bad neighboorhoods right? If it happens in your home you call the police and have the person prosecuted after the fact....you don't actively kill or arrest people you THINK might be criminals.

 

Except Newt slammed Ron Paul on the Patriot Act when Paul brought up Timothy McVeigh..

 

Hardly...unless of course you feel that the movie "Minority Report" should be reality.

 

By fear mongering? If we dont take all your rights away cities are going to be blow up?

Least Newt is showing his true colors.

 

Do you think there is any value in trying to prevent terrorist attacks in the US?

 

Take away every freedom and right and people will still commit crimes.

Now what you can do is live in a police state and *feel* safe.

I am guessing that is your option?

 

And you think that the US is a "police state"???

 

If we keep giving up our freedoms for a false sense of safety... Then yes.

 

You tell me...

Does the value of perhaps preventing terrorist attacks outweigh the cost of the TSA and the loss of freedoms via the Patriot Act?

 

What additional freedoms do you anticipate losing?

 

I don't think that's an accurate description of what he thinks. Did he actually SAY THAT?
I think he feels we should respond to attacks, not anticipate trouble and make the first move. Those two things are not quite the same.

{I personally don't quite agree with that; I say hit first and hard IF trouble IS on the way.}


Please correct me if I'm wrong-

 

Apparently that story is about what happened in 2005.

 

This is very true. The same goes for his Patriot Act stance. For cripes sake, if you are not a terrorist you need not worry about the Patriot Act. The government doesn't have time to listen in on conversations between you and your wife's sister. It is used to track terrorists. Likewise, the PC airport security of searching everyone who is not Muslim so we don't offend terrorists has got to stop. Search the Muslims, and let the rest of us go through without the groping.

Ron Paul is naive about the profiling.

 

And? The Patriot act passed in 2001.

 

That is certainly a better description....but still a bit to simplified if you ask me.
