I'm devastated to report Ron Paul's massive grass-roots support got lost on
the way to the polling booths. Apparently, his wife was supposed to print
out the directions before he left, but the stupid woman decided to watch Oprah
instead. Then, when he went to use his GPS, he discovered he didn't have a
GPS.

After trying unsuccessfully to vote at a McDonalds, a Kum-n-Go gas station,
and the local drug dealer's house, he realized that today is, in fact, the
6th, and therefore he missed the polls entirely.

It's a shame, cause Ron Paul could have WON, man!! He could have won.

:p I saw three of them on my way to the poll, they had big signs and banners that said stuff about Ron Paul on them.....I wonder if they forgot to vote.

Maybe they tried, but couldn't find the keyboard on their ballot paper. :D

Long time no see by the way. :)

Can we finally admit that the internet doesn't quite matter as much as we like to believe? Or do we have to wait until the Feb. 10th Scientology protest fizzles?

Unfortunately the laws of the forum state that the thread started cannot 'win' their own thread. You have come close though.

Ron who?

Ron Paul tried to get his ghostwriter to vote in his stead, but no one fell for it.

The Internet matters when fat kids dance humorously to Romanian pop music. That gets IRL attention.

Of course the internet matters. It just happens that Ron Paul did not have the support of the entire internet.

I mean, look on this forum. Who supports Ron Paul? Where his "grassroots" internet support? Just a few random trolls and idiots. The internet works more successfully than you think. It's the proving ground. The microcosm. Paulbots on the internet have been all but wiped out, and so too have they in the nation overall. So it happened, so it shall be!

This thread is ridiculous....I love the responses "Ron who"...yeah my ass..he's such a nobody that the left on NSG have to keep bashing him down because they feel threatend by his message.

If he is doing something that pisses off the lactating leftist losers on this forum SOOOO much, he must be doing something right.

It doesn't really matter that he doesn't have enough support to get into the presidency. His policies are dangerous enough to warrant "bashing down" wherever they come up.

He's either a racist, or completely incompetent.

Or both.

But then, neither would bother you much. You or the other fringe radicals who can't string together a rational argument.

Tuesday afternoon, I was driving through town and I saw two women standing on the street corner near the local elementary school holding Hillary Clinton signs. I thought it a bit odd at the time(I sliped my mind that it was Super Tueday until about five minutes later). I also thought that there could be no dumber activity than standing in the rain on a street corner to promote a candidate they probably never have nor never will meet.

Then some guy in the truck in front of me shouts out 'RON PAUL!' at the top of his lungs in their direction. I stood corrected. :p

:p I saw three of them on my way to the poll, they had big signs and banners that said stuff about Ron Paul on them.....I wonder if they forgot to vote.

No, I'm sure they did vote for him. Unfortunately for Paul, those were his only supporters. :D

Ron Paul - target: 1,191 total delegates.

Currently has: 14.

So yeah: Ron who? He's a nobody.

And tell him I want my name back! It was bad enough when I had to share it with Reagan.:D

And we like freedom. Which is why we dont vote for Ron Paul.


But really TAI, I understand why your upset. Id be upset too if my lunatic candidate kept making horrible showings and didnt stand a real chance anywhere. Id also be upset if my arguements for why hes so great and why only intellegent people support him kept getting mercilessly shot down.

I feel for you.

And tell him I want my name back! It was bad enough when I had to share it with Reagan.:D
Don't worry, nobody will remember him in a couple of months.

I'm glad that didn't happen to me, because that surely would have convinced me to vote for the guy.

Don't mistake the loudness of the criticism as a response to the threat of the criticised. Rather, the loudness of the criticism is a response to the extremity of the criticised. Groups which advocate the most radical of messages - whether that is libertarian, communist, anarchist, racist or any other fringe platform will also receive the loudest criticism.

And I'm not a leftist.

I blame the NWO dis-info agents.

I'm trying to figure out this "lactating" thing. In between being happy to discriminate against women, gay people, poor people, and non-whites, has Ron Paul also come out against new mothers or something?

"Ron Paul: He's Anti-Abortion, AND Anti-Pregnancy!"

"Ron Paul: Only Soy Formula For All!"

"Ron Paul: He Hates Boobies! (But He's Totally Not Gay.)"

...?

But then, neither would bother you much. You or the other fringe radicals who can't string together a rational argument.

You expect rational argument from someone who can't even make up a good insult? "Lactating leftist losers"?

I suspect he went through a dictionary in a attempt to complete his alliteration:

"Labial leftist losers? No, too blatantly sexist.
Labouring leftist losers? No, sounds kinda positive.
Lachrymal leftist losers? No, can't spell or pronounce it.
Lactating leftist losers? Yeah, that combines misogyny, plausible deniability and a phonetic spelling. This'll show them!

Guys, we all know that the only people who hate ron paul are people who hate freedom and people to uneducated or unintellegent to make their own decisions















And the sane.

I read "The Tragic Loss of Ron Paul" and my first thought was...

Well, if you were more CAREFUL about where you put him, maybe you wouldn't have LOST him.

It was definitely NOT my turn to watch him.

I live in Downtown Libertarian USA. The local county newspaper has a "Libertarianism" page in its website's OP-ed section. Letters to the editor frequently feature Libertarian Party officials and Cato Institute "fellows." Ron Paul was all over my university's newspaper. There were "Ron Paul '08" signs, posters, stickers and grafitti everywhere.

Ron got 4.5% of the county vote.

See, this has nothing to do with "lactating leftist losers." It has everything to do with the fact that Ron Paul is an unelectable hack of a loser. People prefer having their votes count for something; throwing votes away on a lost cause is thus a bad thing.

(It also has to do with the fact that Libertarians are just Big Business Republicans-Lite, thus explaining Mitt Romney's second place finish here in the Libertarian county, but...)

Can we finally admit that the internet doesn't quite matter as much as we like to believe? Or do we have to wait until the Feb. 10th Scientology protest fizzles?

I think it's more that his supporters are more vocal and appear bigger than they really are. It's like the Jewish lobby. Only like 2% of the country is Jewish, but the lobby makes it seem like it makes up 50%. It's all about voice. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Here is an example of the latter. I think 10 Feb will be fine because they don't need an enormous turnout. A dozen or two at each site is basically enough.

So, has that "Ron Paul is a racist/white supremacist" thing been confirmed at all?

He's already crappy enough as it is, but that would be the cherry on the turd sundae.

Not being a fan of Ron Paul because of his warped economic policies, I must agree with you here as soon as someone who pisses off the left gets some support they start calling them idiots and radicals just because they disagree with him. You also tend to find that they attack the man and his supporters rather than arguing against his policies not always but usually, that my misguided left wing friends is a fallacy why don't you argue against his policies properly than people may start coming over to your side

But diplomacy and force are not the only tools available to the international community to help accomplish these lofty but achievable goals. Economic aid. "[C]ombating the terrorists' prophets of fear will require more than lectures on democracy," writes Obama. "America must make every effort to export opportunity – access to education and health care, trade and investment."

"America," he continues, "must commit to strengthening the pillars of a just society. We can help build accountable institutions that deliver services and opportunity... . In countries wracked by poverty and conflict, citizens long to enjoy freedom from want. And since extremely poor societies and weak states provide optimal breeding grounds for disease, terrorism, and conflict, the United States has a direct national security interest in dramatically reducing global poverty and joining with our allies in sharing more of our riches to help those most in need."


Obama claims that it is the governments responsibility to strengthen the pillars of a just society. He plans to carry out this action by claiming the right to my income and redistributing it to poor and weak societies. Obama is claiming that their welfare is my responsibility and that they own me.

Also, getting out from their parents basement into the open air for the first time in 6 years doesn't agree with them. Seeing the world unpixellated makes them real tetchy.

"hearing what you want to hear" is my first thought after reading that giant pile of assumptions. What Obama is claiming is that maybe should should concentrate in the future more about helping weak states and less about destroying and then trying to rebuild moderatley powerful ones. He is in no way shape or form claiming that they somehow own you. He is claming that, in order to protect you, it is the governmnets job to prevent states through becoming failed and breeding grounds for terrorists. Its a pre-emptive :pkind of thing

Alternatively, if that wasn't quite epic enough for your taste :p:

Here ye now the ballad of Ron the Paul,
Whom the voters did savagely maul,
Spake he "Man should be free,
(provided that that man is me!)"

Though liberty he professed to love,
It seems that, when push came to shove,
He helped moralist legislation pass,
And kept his head shoved up his arse.

Hatred spewed he against the blacks,
Despising them as much as tax,
And so defeat marks the end of his tale,
Because his views were made of fail.

I've been sigged! w00t! *does dance of joy* :D

:confused:

Ron Paul wants to strip us of individual rights? I don't know what you're talking about. Ron Paul is for FREEDOM from the nanny-state, and from the tyrannical IRS.
What policies of his are so "dangerous"? Please explain.

Ron Paul is for government authoritarianism. The only difference is that he moves it to the state governments. His "We the People Act" is an attempt to keep individuals from having redress against state governments when those governments infringe upon religious freedom, the right to privacy, or equal protection. He has stated that he thinks your state government has the authority to arrest you for having consensual sex with another adult in your own home if they so choose. Your state government has the "right" to make medical decisions for you, including what contraceptives you may and may not get. Your state government has the "right" to impose religion upon you. And so on...

He supports inequality in the law where it pertains to homosexuals, both by attempting to give states the authority to ignore the 14th Amendment and by supporting the "Don't ask, don't tell" policy.

And, even while saying that the federal government didn't have the authority to do so, he voted for a federal ban on a late-term abortion procedure. He voted for a bill that does absolutely nothing but endanger women.

For all his talk of "freedom", his policies are actually designed to give bigots of all stripes more control over those they would oppress.

You mean like NAFTA? NAFTA was a mistake, because it has sent our manufacturing jobs out of the United States.

That is a product of free trade policies.

Abolishment of tariffs is also bad, because without tariffs companies can manufacture goods and import them cheaper than they can make them here, so companies move their manufacturing operations out of the USA.

So, again, you're against free trade.

That is a product of free trade policies.



So, again, you're against free trade.

Anytime you got supposedly free market supporters expressing concern about "our" jobs becoming "outsourced" and whatnot, that's the time for a shot of wake the fuck up juice. Good job.

This whole Ron Paul thing bugs me because everyone, particularly his misguided followers, believe he's some sort of libertarian free market advocate.

Alternatively, if that wasn't quite epic enough for your taste :p:

Here ye now the ballad of Ron the Paul,
Whom the voters did savagely maul,
Spake he "Man should be free,
(provided that that man is me!)"

Though liberty he professed to love,
It seems that, when push came to shove,
He helped moralist legislation pass,
And kept his head shoved up his arse.

Hatred spewed he against the blacks,
Despising them as much as tax,
And so defeat marks the end of his tale,
Because his views were made of fail.

LMAO that was awesome.

I think that just about ends the thread, since all of the goals of a Ron Paul thread have been met.

... I don't know where you get your facts, but Ron Paul had a huge success on Super Tuesday. The "beauty contests" mean nothing, it's the delegates that matter. With everyone else dropping out, Ron Paul is in second place now.

McCain is just about the biggest faux-Republican ever. He's worse than Bush.

Huckabee is still in the race. And so is Romney, technically. Romney only suspended his campaign. He's playing power broker with the delegates he has, and will leverage his way to a VP spot at the RNC. In terms of delegates, Paul is a distant fourth.

Um....no, he isn't. 2nd place (if you take out Romney) is Huckabee. Ron Paul isn't even in the running with his measly 16 delegates to McCain's 714. He doesn't even have 10% of the delegates that Huckabee has, at 181.

ROTFLASTC.

Literally. You should apologize to my cats for scaring them.

... I don't know where you get your facts, but Ron Paul had a huge success on Super Tuesday.

Yes, he got two digits of delegates! I guess his campaign strategists had projected only one.

A huge success? :confused:

Are we watching the same election? You know, the one where he didnt get a single state?

Yes, and Ron Pauls 16 delegets. Anyone with half a brain knows that is a horrid showing. Oh wait...Paulbots...dont have brains.

With everyone else dropping out, Ron Paul is in second place now.

Actualy he's in third...out of three candidates. Good for him.

McCain: 714
Huckster: 181
Paul: 16

This isnt like golf, the guy with the lowest score doesnt win. You might be the most deluded paulbot ever.

Everyone on the interent that I saw was like "man, I totally support Dr. Ron Paul" and what did he get like 2 votes?

Honostly I was like why would you vote for him? I mean hes nuts. He wants to get rid of the Federal Reserve! But Huckabbe wants to get rid of the IRS and he wonstates too. Wow people are nuts. I mean honostly he'd have Bill Gates paying the same taxes as an 18 year old high school drop out working at McDonalds.

John McCain is obviously gonna get the nomination, and I hop to God Huckabee isn't his VP. I mean McCain is repsectable and he's gonna win the presidency becuase people will have there reservations about Obama and Clinton for numerous reasons.

I disagree with a few things, but that is for another time.

That's something you see a LOT on the internet.
Very, very true.

*Jaw Drop* do you notice what you just said, you a paul bot dissed the Paul Overlord!!!!!!!!! and also he only got 16 delegates, LG or Bottle would have gotten more than that!
*by diss, i mean you implied the only reason he is in "second place" is because everyone else has left, shame on you!*

Alright, time to add my two Euro cents to this thread.

I used to support Ron Paul, and I like many of his libertarian ideas and feel they would be a good set of policies to get in to the White House. However, over the course of the ensuing months, I've learned that he is a racist and blatant homophobe (hell, he makes Huckabee look like a Log Cabin Republican) with a bunch of weird, borderline conspiracy theory ideas masked within many of his other policy positions. He's somebody I might support as Senator, but there's no way in hell I'd give him the kind of power embedded in the POTUS.

As much as I like some of his positions, the bad stuff is way too strong and too concerning to support him.

the only thing i know about mr paul really, is that he was the only republican in this current election cycle, who wasn't a complete loonie.

for what its worth, even hillary wouldn't be as disasterous as mccain or the huck. and thank whatever mysterious forces, gooliani is out of it.

The ignorance! IT BURNS!

Yeah, he's a loonie who's missing a few bricks....

Hey hey hey. Id vote for Bottle. LG...well...I would if it wasnt for that whole "have his finger on the button" thing...

Like an old Soviet Union joke: Brezhnev and Nixon were at a summit, decided to go out jogging, and one or the other said "Race you!" Headline in Pravda: "Brezhnev finishes second in foot-race; Nixon finishes next to last."

I used to support Ron Paul, and I like many of his libertarian ideas

Don't libertarian ideas generally value individual freedom, rather than state authority?

Aye, he's not really libertarian, he's anti-federalist. He still wants power to go to government, he's just switching which government has the power.

I guess Ron Paul didn't have the winning formula. Those goddam lactators win again!

I have a feeling TAI's comment is going to remembered here for a long,long time.

As we all know, the whole Ron Paul For President insanity has been euthanized and shoved into a ditch. Good riddance, you would think. However, I discovered that Ron Paul actually got fans outside the US of A: http://www.holland4ronpaul.blogspot.com/
