I am supporting Ron Paul - 12-18-2007 , 04:48 PM

After thinking about it quite a bit I have decided to vote/support Ron Paul.

I have never really liked him all that much for many reasons but after giving it careful consideration I have come to the reluctant conclusion that he is the only one to vote for.

A couple of months ago I would have told you that he is very right on 75% of the issues and very wrong on 25% and the 25% was a deal breaker.

After mulling it over I have reversed my thinking and have concluded that that if we have to compromise it is better to compromise on the 25% of the kooky things Paul supports than the 100% of the things the other big government candidates supports.

These are my reasons:

1. If we don?t get control of this budget the cost of government is going to kill us all and we will get very few useful things for our trouble. We are going to the poor house folks because we don't really produce anything anymore and we owe our souls to the Chinese and the oil producing Arabs. We have spent a lot more money than we made and soon it will time to pay the piper. Paul is the only candidate that has any credibility on actually reducing the size of government.

2. We can?t continue to have the focal point of our foreign policy to insure that the Israelis live well. We need to stop it right now and extract ourselves from the biggest foreign policy blunder this country ever made.

3. We need to stop these wars of intervention. Our business needs to be business instead of bombing Christians, bombing Muslims and going after warlords in Somalia or whatever.

4. It is time that we start reading the Constitution and understanding what freedom is all about instead of catering to every goddamn special interest group in America.

I understand that supporting Paul will cause us to cut and run from Iraq and that is not good. However, that is not our biggest problem right now by far. The biggest problem is the mountain of debt and the erosion of Constitutional freedoms. We will be hurt in the long run a lot more by the road to Socialism than by terrorists.

The rest of the Republican pack is nothing more than big government neocons that will not serve us well. Of course the Democrats are even worse.

Islamophobic and proud of it!

Does democracy still work when 51% of the people are morons?
