This highlights perfectly why I could never align myself with Paul or his supporters. To you people oftentimes the world is black and white. Things are either or. In reality most things in life are grey. We live in a world now where nations are no longer the only threat to other nations. Does that mean no nation can pose a threat? Of course not.
Does that mean Iran is a clear and present threat to national security, or could we still communicate with them and possibly neutralize any threat from them?
Dont be upset i quoted you. Say what you mean then. A War on Terror is just isnt logical you cant "declare" war on an ideal. Then again we have a "War" on Cancer, a "War" on Drugs , a "War" on poverty etc etc etc.
Reducing our influence in the world to the likes of Canada will make many people's careers an "unnecessary expense" in the Paul Administration. He doesn't talk about that, but it's the truth.
RP doesn't just talk smaller Gov, he means it. He embraces the entire Constitution. Its why so many TEA party supporters shy away from him. He doesn't just give lip service when its convenient to get elected. Wow, can you imagine, a politician who actually keeps his promises?
Says you. In reality the middle east is more peaceful than it was when we were there. Sorry, overwhelming evidence trumps extremists ideology.
I find it interesting on this forum how much different topics are "Debated" struggling half the time to keep it that way when one person uses this (*)(*)(*)(*). How we all though despite the trouble still do press on to try and get intelligence and to support our views.I find it though that to often names get called and this idea of "debating" turns into nonsense. The idea of people calling another right or one wrong. This shows the true faith we have in our opinions. The name of this very site "Political Forum" implies something. That it is to speak of things happening in the future. Our ideas about the future. Now it is so that no man woman or child can tell the future with complete certainty much of the complete certainty having been stated before on this site. I think that you may find out about the future from the past since the past is what HAS happened it is viable as proof for what might. But all that gives you is the 50-50 chance your right. In that 50-50 chance you have the past and present which decide the future. So lets not base ourselves on the present alone I for one would rather be able to call heads and tails. So stop saying what WILL happen if Ron Paul is elected start saying what you think might happen if Ron Paul is elected. China ruling the world? Nice contribution whoever mentioned it. Innocents not getting killed by U.S. bombs? Another good contribution. But lets not state these things with certainty lets give the historical advantages of these views and then hope we have the better chance in the coin toss of the future. What has happened and what will happen are two different things so lets remember that and cut down the very thing which makes these discussions BS and that is pride.I support Ron Paul for my own reasons and no ones reason is BS.Others cannot decide that you are an idiot only you can do that.
Reality isnt whatever you say buddy. Please explain how the situation in Iraq or Afghanistan is better then it was before we came with our peace delivering bombs? You keep saying overwhelming evidence but you provide nothing.
We're making progress. You guys do nothing but cite discredited libertarian sites (no different from providing nothing at all) so consider that before demanding evidence yourself. But if you observed the middle east with an objective eye you'd see that things are getting better.
You are talking to me. Not "you" guys. I dont belong to a collective hive mentality. Could you show me all these "discredited libertarian sites" that i have linked? You are the one saying that < in another thread> that Ron Paul supporters are simliar to Islamic Jihadists. Where is your evidence of this besides your extremly biased and warped views?
The fact that you support him means you agree with a discredited economic theory. And yes, when I hear people talking about violently overthrowing the government and sympathizing with some of the most ruthless terrorist organizations on the planet then I start to wonder. I'm sure you also read in that thread where I said most aren't similar to Islamic jihadists, but a minority can be compared to it. But you probably conveniently ignored that.
So Ron Paul wants to violently overthrow the government. Right.... Spending only what you have is a discredited idea. Right....
Yes by Keynesians. Go fig. I guess we should just ignore the 15 trillion in debt. Keep spending! Eventually it will work honest!
If you don't understand it, then I am not going to waste my time teaching you, even though, considering how slowly I type, I just used a bunch of my time typing this to you as well as some of your time making you read this pointless post.

Mine was dripping with it. Mine was misguided though...sorry for the confusion. I was making a jest regarding another poster who tried to make a point, but refused to go into details because it was beneath him I suppose.
I believe we are both making fun of the same poster but it might just more sarcasm. An enigma to be sure.
We tried his alien threat tactic. ITs called the War on Terror.. Its been more then 18 months hasnt it?
