Our country is being controlled by a partnership between Corporations and Big Government which benefit from inflation, unnecessary war, and even putting people in prison is BIG BUSINESS. We. MUST once again limit the power and control the federal government has given itself. The only candidate that will help the people do this is....
We can use all that money we are spending on the war to build nuclear power plants and electric cars. If we run out of oil, we will survive. I don't know how you are linking our survival to oil. The price of oil is going up due to inflation and other variables. Inflation cause by borrowing and printing more and more money for this war.
Yeah, McCain and others started talking about this after Ron Paul did but, there record does not hold the same sentiment. Ron Pauls voting record bears out the same ideas he's had for his entire career as a politician.
McCain is just another liar in Senator's clothing. Ron Paul is the only true American candidate running for President. A vote for any other candidate is a wasted vote.
As a former McCain supporter (until I found..and researched Ron Paul) I gotta say, it is so easy to see when any candidate is saying something to get the right reaction, or when saying it because they have a true understanding of it.
The reason McCain is soooo pro-war is because the elite in this country needed to make sure either Obama or Clinton won the Presidency. Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows that speaking like McCain will only bring on defeat. This is what happened to Rudy!!!
John Mcain is best known for straight talk, telling it like it really is. He comes out, says the people hate it, it sucks, it is wrong, it is terrible. He then says, we have to do it, we cannot win, people hate us, we are out of oil, our economy is failing, and unless we win and we kill the terrorist countries and take their oil than we will die. You aint seen nothing yet. So - that is honesty, and I like it. How else do you fix all of the problems? War or nothing pal. That's it.
What is incorrect about the statement? This is what you did.
"Your ignorance shines through."
You are a dumbass.
If you quote something, and then give your opinion - without stating what part is incorrect, where the fallacy lies, or/and other factual evidence than you aren't making a point (people can't read your mind. Debate responsibly please, in the interest of everyone.
That was perhaps the most insightful look into the mind of a completely ignorant person. Why is john mccain known for his straight talk? because his touring bus is called the "straighttalk express". Give me a fucking break hes a lier. hes on the council of foreign relations just like romney, guiliani, clinton and obama. All illuminati elitist. All liers. Obama is 9th cousins with bush? what the fuck is going on here.
You can trace YOUR bloodline all the way back to the sumatrian civilization. Each of us can. You know why? Cause at one time, everyone lived in one big friggin villiage.
"...we kill the terrorist countries and take their oil.."
YOU may call that "straight talk", I call it arrogant and immoral. These "terrorist" countries you mention are inhabitted by millions of innocent men, women, and children, and spare me the "collateral damage" bull. You wouldn't consider it collateral if it was your friends or family members. Have a little empathy for humanity's sake.
"War or nothing pal. That's it."
You really need to reevaluate your moral and ethical character.
That is what we do. He isn't sugar coating it, we've done it.
I am aware of the innocent members of these countries. I am not saying that it is a good thing. I am not cheering the end of innocent life.
My concern is simply one of survival of the fittest. In order to reamin strong, you msut remain in power. In this case, we were failing. Iraq was demanding euros for oil and training terrorists. This is known.
You won't remain in power for very long if your government keeps spending itself into perpetual debt to the tune of over $7 trillion. All great empires end because they spread themselves too thin and end up going bankrupt. It happened to the Roman Empire, it happened to the Soviet Union, and it can happen to the United States. Constant agression and war actually drains a country vs a good strong DEFENSIVE military that is well prepared for battle and only goes to war when absolutely necessary.
I agree. what we are in disagreement on is the defintion of what is "necessary." The other facts, I am aware of. What I am concerned with is that perhaps people are udnerestimating the sincerity of the need for us to be at war. These nations we are fighting are the sinlg emost powerful advocates of our nations destruction, ever. Wether there really are little old men with long dangly beards trying to kill us or not, their leaders wanted and want us all to just die.
Listen, Exxon posted record profits since Iraq was invaded and the price of oil has skyrocketed. Stealing oil from other countries isn't going to get you cheaper gas or oil. It just fattens the wallets of CEOs and wallstreet investors. Since going to war with Iraq the price of oil has only gotten higher, so don't try to imply that Iraq declared economic war on the U.S. On the contrary, the U.S. did wage economic war on iraq during 10 years of brutal economic sanctions.
Of course oil profts are high - there is very little of it and we are fighting for it. Iraq did what they did and they did it with intent - Ron Paul's 2006 speech to congress found by google search "Ron paul 2006" states very clearly why we are at war today. Ron knows, do you?
It's not about cheaper. It is about. (period)
It is about money, our money, our life. If they don't take the dollar - we have nothing left.
The people of these nations hate us because we occupy their land, kill innocent people, and tell them how to live their lives. Our occupation in these nations is feeding terrorism. It is exactly what Osama Bin Laden wants, he has said it himself. You speak about "survival of the fittest" like a 19th century imperialist. I suggest doing a little research on economics and foreign policy.
Wonderbread. Suggesting that I sutdy economics is like telling Mosart to study music. Ask me a question rather than making assumptions and I'll answer you.
Our occupation in those lands hasn;t a thing to do with terrorism in the sense of Osama Bin Laden's words.
He is a character on a stage set to convince you. Morallity is the weapon used against us and avoiding it the bullet.
Our government could get no support for the truth which is, we are out of oil -and must get it.
Well Mr economics professor, why is it that the price of oil has gone from $27 a barrel to $100 a barrel since we started bombing Iraq in the 90's. If our gov't would have tried diplomacy when necessary, we'd be paying much less for oil today. But, that not good for an oil man now is it? Especially one with Arab friends in the right places.
The Arab people resent that we have attacked their country just as we did when they attacked us, only we've been attacking much longer and continuously. We've been meddling in their affairs for decades.
anscfoster-I can see you are not capable of giving your comments much thought. Go ahead and stay in your little bubble, you'll have the illusion that you are safer.
I'll give you something, go read the 9-11 commission report then come back here and comment. See if you still think it's because Muslims hate Christians and visa versa.
It goes deeper than what we are told, I can admit that. I jsut also know that the Muslims want Americans dead, on amass scale - that has been a stated goal of theirs for years.
I have read the 911 commision report and the one statement you are basing your stance upon is in contradiction ot the other thousand ages which say we should be there for a long, long time.
Muslims do not want Americans dead as a rule. Islamic extremists are actually a very small, albeit growing, minority. They grow because we give them reason to grow. Our presence in the Middle East is the best recruiting tool the Taliban could pray for.
As for your comments about oil, yes, obviously oil is a big factor. What boggles my mind is that you defend war for oil based on some bogus Social Darwinistic philosophy. We go to war for oil so the moguls can make huge profits, not because we're running desperately short. Exxon has posted record profits for the last 4 years. It and others have a very powerful lobby and a very strong influence on Washington. Our soldiers die for their profits. How could you possibly defend this?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Well - I defend it becuase I connect it to the comepltley not bogus Darwinistic philisophy.
It is survival of the fitest in that whoever gets the oil - proceeds.
We need to fight for free energy, over unity, solar powered stations, and the likes - but until oil runs out - whoever has it is the leader of the world.
Exxon profits are redistributed to millions of stocks that are held by the general population.
In reality, at this point, if we don't get the oil - we have lost.
my dad is in the oil business. He says oil will never 'run out'. Just using the supply and demand principle you can tell this. It will get more and more expensive, so eventually we will not be using oil because of that. Only the very rich will be able to afford petrol
"Iraq was demanding euros for oil and training terrorists. This is known."
First of all, it is Iraq's sovereign right to trade it's resources how it chooses. Secondly, Iraq had very little, if any terrorist activity when Saddam was in power. Saddam didn't allow any activity in Iraq that threatened his power, that included "terrorists".
"In order to reamin strong, you msut remain in power."
You can remain in power without being the bully of the world.
"it is Iraq's sovereign right to trade it's resources how it chooses" I think you are out of touch with where we are as a world today. It is great to be supportive and friendly and nice with Iraq's right to seel and do what they wish but you are forgetting that the only way we exist as Americans exist is to control the movement and trade of other nations. No where on earth is there a society comparable to ours, because they do not exist.
To train a terrorist you do this - you speak ill of a country, you manipulate that country, you take their economic power by expressing intent to sell your goods in the currency of another country, and you speak hatred and disqust for that country. America trains its own "terrorists" and so did Iraq. This, is bigger than you imaginge. Christians hate Muslims, muslims hate Christians. Not becuase of government, because of history and religion. If you're a true sideliner, or watcher, than brace.
you are a sick individual. You definition of training a terrorist would aply to all citizens of every country. oil was aprox. $25 a barrel before this STUPID WAR! there is no need for this war NONE!
Oil was the cause. To quote the price of oil is irrelevant. Of course it will go up. There is very little, and we all fighting for it. Please, step back from la la land and look into the real world. Nations are fighting for oil, becuase at present it is the key to life. Wihtout it, there is no life as we know it.
Nations are fighting for oil. We are winning. If we come home, we have no oil - hence - life as you know it will be over.
I am not in a branch of the military. I am watching life from a viewers standpoint. I research more than Ron Paul. I go to videos titled "aztlan" "Iran" "Iraq" "freedom" and os on and so on. A well rounded viewer of life sees all sides, not only one. Please, watch some of those videos for yourself and make a decision based on input from each side of the field.
"He isn't representing himself anymore, he's representing a myriad of interests and concerns that need their agenda upheld."
