The dictionary definition of treason doesn't apply. The Constitutional definition does: "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the...

Does anyone still believe that it's possible to create change through the established political system?

This needs to spread across the country like a wildfire. There is something horribly wrong with a system that can steal an elderly widow's home and send her out on the street.

Allow me to rephrase that for your benefit, then: "...would FURTHER destroy the movement".

Ron isn't likely to endorse anyone. He has no reason to, and endorsing someone who isn't philosophically aligned with him would destroy the movement.

Ron isn't going to ride off into the sunset. He's retiring after this term, sure, but that doesn't mean he's going to disappear from view. He knows what he's started and he isn't about to abandon it now. I wouldn't be surprised if we hear more from him after he retires than we have during...

They've been using various means of propaganda on Americans for decades, at least. Why bother "legalizing" it now?

I'm hardly a fan of Perry, but this time he did the right thing. The people of Texas pay him and they have a right to expect him to be there during a major crisis like this. If he hadn't gone to Texas he never would have lived it down.

Sure she can. Don't forget, she ran with McCain and endorsed him later on. He's as status quo as you can get.

Ditto. I'll bet it's bigger than the beautiful teacher's union...

Real close to what I'm thinking. Let Santorum attack Dr. Paul all he wants. It's going to backfire on him, as he's just bringing more attention to the Paul campaign and RP's common-sense positions.

"In war-Christian Iowa, for Ron Paul to virtually tie Michele Bachmann for #1 is a clear victory. Indeed, for Ron to do this well just a few days after telling the truth about Iran, and outraging every neocon, is thrilling. They can't stand the Peaceful Libertarian, and they especially can't...

Doubtful. Most are (or should be) so medicated that they can't get out of their chairs.
