There you go "bad mouthing Macgyver" again...<br />I guess it shouldn't be surprising that so many people are willing to ignore what Mr. Paul really stands for, when he is the only candidate of either party advocating withdrawing our military forces from virtually everywhere (why is it that there are no dems talking about getting out of Korea or Germany, how many 60 year old wars should we be fighting at any given time?) or legalizing weed. Chalk it up to lack of exposure to the actual political process in this country: The one where the corporatocracy (Ike's military industrial conplex) determines the true military budget, and big pharma controls which drugs are legal and which ones aren't. <br />When you get down this low, promising to make the trains run on time must start to look pretty good....but you cant ignore Mein Kamph to get there...blackdaughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05554233110211227532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-42882771282504766702012-01-29T00:58:54.263-06:002012-01-29T00:58:54.263-06:00Any word on Jeb jumping into the swill yet?

That's a racist right wing talking point, and he went so far as to call it "affirmative action" in order to really work the dogwhistle. <br /><br />And then there's his newsletters, and the fact that his chosen political party and chosen ideology have a long history of racist beliefs and policy prescriptions.<br /><br />But besides all that, I agree that race hasn't really come up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-89299460010434998292012-01-28T20:34:32.821-06:002012-01-28T20:34:32.821-06:00Your time and mine could have better been spent on...Your time and mine could have better been spent on almost anything than writing and reading about Ron Paul.sticklerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11468746880489986775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-63448319542775844582012-01-28T15:56:41.973-06:002012-01-28T15:56:41.973-06:00"20% hucksters turning a buck by pandering to..."20% hucksters turning a buck by pandering to the rage and paranoia of rubble-squatting morons"<br /><br />I'd say 100% of republicans are duped.

He has said plenty of words about ending several wars which indiscrimanantely and disproportionately affected darker skinned people; whether it be the war on drugs or a war on terror.<br /><br />Every other candidate is committed full stop to perpetuating those very racist, classist and imperialist policies. <br /><br />How is he the racist?<br /><br />If we are to assume a hidden agenda, why not assume that Paul didn't say whatever he had to say to mouth breathers on his way up to get into a position to end things he thought were wrong? Maybe the guys who want to hang black people from trees were the ones duped by Paul's hidden anti-imperialist agenda?<br /><br />You can speculate all day and fashion whatever narrative makes you most comfortable, but the reality is that he is the only candidate running an almost explicitly anti-racist platform.Justinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02924326177370725150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-86768532444537557772012-01-28T11:43:30.026-06:002012-01-28T11:43:30.026-06:00Has "youthful indiscretion" been trotted...Has "youthful indiscretion" been trotted out yet?<br /><br />Fifty-ish is late middle age to the rest of us, but perhaps he skipped his twenties, thirties, and forties.<br /><br />(Not impressed by the Pauls, father <i>or</i> son.)D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01347115855111060618noreply@blogger.com
