    Rick Perry Brushes Aside Mitt Romney to Lead 2012 Republican Pack

    Eh, I'm not so sure...the main republican base - which somehow all IMMEDIATELY went neo-conservative with Bush during the last decade, it seems - still LOVES Bush and thinks he was the best thing to happen since sliced bread. I really don't get it. Even my grandmother Arlene, who also ikes...

    Worst attack I've heard against Ron Paul this campaign

    It's just that Levin is a NEO-conservative, and for some reason that 'neo' bit trumps every other bit of common sense they believe in, to the point that these people are willing to switch sides in surprisingly large numbers and support Obama, instead of support Paul and have to face the...

    Worst attack I've heard against Ron Paul this campaign

    Eh. I know not everyone here's a believer, but I take some small satisfaction in this, since even Levin can't be blind or ignorant enough to believe everything he's spewing - and teachers, as he can be considered to some, are held to much higher account: "But I tell you that every careless word...

    Fox News anchor tries to bait Ron into commenting on the Rick Perry sex ad

    Nah.. It's just humility. Chicks dig that.

    New Iowa poll released by Rasmussen, Ron Paul in 3rd place with 16%!

    Agreed, but also remember how these polls are done and who they are polling - usually only former republican voters with landlines. The majority of Paul's support is younger crowd usually w/out landlines, as well as new & independent/non-former republican voters. I'm hoping those factors come...

    So It Seems Aug 2 Deadline Will NOT Be Met; Boehner Says No To Debt Ceiling Deal

    Unless I've missed something, the 14th amendment doesn't even apply here - ratification debate aside. We've got the revenue to address our debt, as well as cuts we can make to address future shortfalls. 14th amendment is a non-issue here as the argument isn't over validity of debt, or even the...

    Is Fire11 a Troll?

    I haven't been around much to see a lot of his stuff, but with what I'm reading here, wouldn't he be more along the lines of a decepticon?

    Ok, I need some help here...

    Just on a side note, and I have by no means looked into Qutb in depth at all, but perhaps I need to - it sounds like Qutb would actually have imposed a moderating view on extremist islam anyway: ""For Islam does not desire the freedom of worship for its followers only, rather it affirms this...

    Michele Bachmann Bachman Money Bomb (Wants to raise $240,000 in 24 hrs...)

    "Dear Michele, If you're actually concerned about the various crises, I would humbly beseech you to immediately withdraw your candidacy for the presidency and promptly endorse Dr. Ron Paul, as well as support him monetarily in any way you can. Dr. Paul has a proven record of consistent...

    Michele Bachmann Bachman Money Bomb (Wants to raise $240,000 in 24 hrs...)

    And the part that actually kills me - anyone want to guess how much LESS wasted money she would be getting without what positive mention and "leader" branding she's received (even if not an excessive amount of it as yet), and if she had anywhere near the negative press that Ron gets? She's not...

    Bill Maher mocks announced Republican candidates [VIDEO]

    Well, actually... Unless Bill has changed his tune since last time around, he loves Ron Paul - has had him on his show at least a couple of times: Ron Paul is Bill maher's New Hero - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUYDt7kC3Z0

    The Seals Killed Akhbar Han?

    Unfortunately, the guy(s) the CIA uses to make their videos works EXCLUSIVELY for them (tongue-in-cheek!). I believe that's actually what Steve Pieczenik (DA Sec. of State and other positions in State Dep't) claims based on what he's been told, and who's to say the SEALs are in on any...

    Huckabee out of the running?

    I posted this over at the Daily Paul and didn't see any word on it here yet, so just relaying - looks like the Huck has bombed: According to this article from HumanEvents.com, signs are that Huckabee is likely removing himself from the running - very good news for Dr. Paul. Article is at...

    LA Times: Ron Paul is stamped 'not a birther' by Chris Matthews

    Hey eduardo - back during the run-up to 2008 election, there were some good threads posted on this over at the Daily Paul. The big issue was figuring out what the law specified as far as children of US citizens being born overseas, and with the digging I did, Mccain appears to have actually NOT...
