160. you crack me up
Edited on Wed Jul-15-09 04:31 PM by hiphopnation
this is such predictable paulite windbaggery. look at the frenzy you've worked up here in the name of "working with someone that supports ron paul". And when asked to provide some substantive linkage to support the need for said frenzy, you post a google search. yeesh.

save yer freakin' breath and time - there's a severe lack of love amongst the reality-based community for Ron Paul, of which, I would guess, the vast majority of DUers are a part. Paul's ideas and ideals, like just about every f-in libertarian I've ever talked to or debated, sound good on the surface, but after you scratch the surface, you realize they're based on nothing other than xenophobia, women-hate, and good ol' fashioned NATIONALISM. It's like they're rendered myopic by their own nostalgia, their own sense of what USED to make America great. Know who else I happen to feel suffers from this same condition - Antonin Scalia. Guess what: You can never go back, get used to it. It doesn't mean that some real reality-based change can't come, but it ain't coming by withdrawing all troops from every outpost in the world and going back to a time when a man could be hung for stealing a horse.
