"Conservatives beat liberals only when we challenge their outdated positions, not embrace them. This is not a time for philosophical flexibility, it is a time to stand up for what we believe in. Together we can carry the conservative banner all the way to the Whitehouse." -Fred Thompson-
the problems with the rep. party doesn't stem just from the failed bush, but also by the mean spiritedness of their religious wing(btw from which bush comes).
until these so called "christians" learn to be more christian, they will continue to bring the party down.
& until these so called "christians" realize most americans are on to their hate & bigotry driven politics they will become a 3 party, behind a new conservative party that stays away from the "christian" label.
He's not a radical. And it's not "virtually no government". What's he getting rid of? The Department of Education, Department of Energy, the CIA, the Federal Reserve (eventually), the IRS, Medicare (while still paying for people who are dependent), Social Security (while still paying...), the war in Iraq, the war on drugs, the Patriot Act, and Guantanamo. We don't need any of those. It's not radical. It's common sense.
I had a hard time telling if you were sarcastic, because all of those cuts could very well be mocking Ron Paul, it's scary to see how much he thinks we could do without.
Ron Paul has always been annoying to other politicians and the government when they were being stupid or violating a strict interpretation of the constitution. He has always held his positions and always will. His voting record speaks very well for him. He's a great politician who will work with everybody given the chance.
I wonder what Tony Perkins and his Family Research flock would do if Gulliani WAS the Republican nomination? Would they NOT VOTE? That would be refreshing!
until republcans reject the fanatical christian wing of their party, begin to realize americans, other from the south, don't align with the likes of perkins, their future is doomed to an also ran.
not just that, it's also the goofy joker like (the one played by jack nicholson) grin of confidence he gives when he is wrong (which is almost always)
Bush, the Clintons, OBAMA and RUDY GIULIANI in fact most presidential candidates are all involved in a plot for world government and enslavement of mankind. wake up people
infowars d0t com
VOTE RON PAUL or vote for your own ENSLAVEMENT. THERE ISN'T MUCH TIME LEFT, search FEMA CAMPS
GOOGLE "Operation Northwoods" "Rex 84" and "Army Regulation 210-35"
We need to fix the damage not make it worse. I apologize for being so pissed off, but you know what they say. It's better to be pissed off than pissed on, and I for one am done being pissed on.
Are you f-in kidding me. I seriously will never watch this fake ass news "Fox" ever again. I'm Republiecan and Ron Paul is the Man!!! Stop the media blackout we all see what you're doing, and it's not American. "Rudy Guliani"??? I would drown myself in Tijuana sewage rather than live in this world with that corrupt piece of crap as our leader.
this is a joke - the mainstream media are so biased towards establishment candidates. Ron Paul is a foreign policy conservative, anti-abortion, small government, fiscal conservative....
A huge believer in the theories of Leo Stauss. If the average neocon supporter knew what their glorious leaders really thought about them they would absolutely freak.
If you are looking for a man that won't lie to you Have a good long look at Ron Paul forget the party look at the man. show me were he lied in congress or to the people that voted him in to congress. bet I can find one on any other candidate. please show me if you can really want to see it
I agree with oolong2. I don't agree with Ron Paul's pro-life stance, but I'm tired of American's wanting a candidate that meets their ONE issue, wether it's gay rights (which I'm for) pro life, anti war...we need someone who is going to lead ALL American's out of the crap that Bush has us in now and Ron Paul is the only one who can do that!
Ron Paul is the only candidate that meets those 3 legs
1. Pro-Life
2. Fiscal Responsibility
3. Conservative Foreign Policy
I don't agree with him on #1, but the man has passion, honesty, and a record that can hold up to the neo-con "swift boating" (except for maybe his libertarian roots). He may very well be the sleeper candidate the conservatives have been waiting for.
The state of the GOP right now is dismal. Their fundraising is pitiful. Their evangelical base is looking outside the party establishment for representation. Scandal has plagued the party. Their platform is tired, exhausted from divisive ideologies, hypocritical values, abandonment of core principles, an unpopular war & president, and a obnoxious penchant for fearmongering.
Sidenote: Doesn't Dearborn, Michigan, the site of the debate, contain the largest concentration of Muslims in America? I will be curious to see how the GOP candidates manage their standby "anti-Islamofascist" rhetoric in such an environment without insulting their host city. The GOP have refused to go to blacks, hispanics & gays, yet here they are essentially going to Muslims, their favorite scapegoat of the last 6 years.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
And yet - they are still a much better alternative than the defeatist, tax raising socialists, who have no morals or values democrats backed by Soros the socialist, anti American Moveon, Chavez & Castro embracing moonbats who hide from the Islamists (under the skirt of the ACLU). As if any lib has the backbone to stand up to tyrants - they hug, and suck up to them. Too funny that the one with the balls in their party, is a woman. LOL
Your anachronistic misogynism is the perfect example of why conservatives are totally unfit to lead this nation. Take your hate-mongering and your politics of fear - we won't get fooled again.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The hate you see is the hate within. Look at posts with "hate", they come from the left. I'm not a hater - my post is warm and fuzzy compared to the vile crap that comes from many from the left. Look at Huffpo. daily kos - this is where the haters gather. As to incompetence - your party leads that charge - re: protecting this country - your party leads the retreat.
right4u, "moonbats," how original. Concerning those who stand up to tyrants, let me remind you that it was Reagan & Bush 41 that cozied up to Saddam, Osama bin Laden, Noriega & a host of other Central American bad characters. It's hard to take the moral high ground when you're coming from the gutter.
daffy - I'll put mine up to yours any day - Clinton, Carter. Bush kicked Saddam's ass. Reagan brought down the Soviet Union.
How many times were we attacked at Embasies, and barracks, ect.. with Clinton - and Carter was simply a joke - and is even worse now in is "moonbat" world.
But, it's not hard to have the high ground against democrats - it appears on going, and inevitable.
right4u, Reagan MADE Saddam, OBL & Noriega. And when the barracks in Lebanon were bombed, he hightailed it out of the country with his tail between his legs. His big war was in Grenada. He got in a pissing contest with the USSR seeing who could bankrupt their own country fastest with rampant, out-of-control military-industrial spending. People call him tough for bombing Kaddafi's tent, while Bush 43 signs deals with Kaddafi.
cont. If you're going to bring up old guys like Carter, I'll have to bring up Nixon, & you'll have go to LBJ. We could trade shitty presidents for days. Party loyalty, for either side, is for mindless idiots. BTW, I'm an angry Republican of 26 yrs; your ideology of divide and conquer is working, as it now is tearing apart not only our own country, but also our own party.
It's also incorrect to claim Reagan "won the Cold War".
After all, Lech Walansea(sp.?), Gorbachev, Pope John Paul II, the Baltic States, Afghan guerrilla fighters, and a succession of ill incompetent Soviet Premiers weren't part of Ronnie's cabinet.
Carter armed the Mujahadeen with 500 million dollars in weapons BEFORE the Soviets invaded Afghanistan. Clinton sucked up to the Taliban and tried to negotiate a pipeline deal with them even after he knew of their human rights abuses. Reagan was fooled my Rumsfeld (team B) into believing the bankrupt Soviet Union was a huge threat and started an arms race that completely bankrupted them.
crazycat, interesting that you note Clinton sucking up to the Taliban over oil while ignoring egregious human rights abuses. Name one president in the last 50 years that hasn't sucked up to the Saudi royal family over oil while ignoring their egregious human rights abuses.
Reagan armed Saddam with WMD over oil and his desire to encourage Iraq's war with Iran, neither country good on human rights.
As I said earlier, we can trade shitty presidents back & forth for days.
I completely agree with you but I don't know any other way to deal with people that still try to use that argument than to point out it that does not work.
They called John Kerry a flip flopper, HELLO Guilliani has flip flopped about abortion and look how he castigated the NRA, but he now has on NRA knee pads!!! Wake up!!! Rudy is exploiting 9-11 for his own career. FLIP FLOPPER!!!!!!!
