[HOLLYWOOD]

Look's like the Libertarian running for US Senate in Montana is going to cost the GOP that Senate seat that Ron and Rand endorsed candidate: Rehberg.

So GOP have we learned our lesson yet?

You do not nominate health care mandating, gun grabbing, flip flopping, liberal progressives to try and beat health care mandating, gun grabbing, flip flopping, liberal progressives.

We TOLD you No One But Paul and we fucking meant it.

THIS!

I saw a mention that the "Tea Party Network" posted a memo of "No more McCains, no more Romneys." I wonder if that includes no more Santorums.

Interestingly, the Tea Party Network refused to endorse Romney due to lack of confidence in his conservatism.

I don't know which faction of the Tea Party TPN supports. The true small-government TP gets mixed with the social conservative TP and the neocon TP.

This is so so satisfying. To the Whigs and Know Nothing's ye shall go. Vengeance is ours tonight! Haha.

LOL

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump

House of Representatives shouldn't give anything to Obama unless he terminates Obamacare.






Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump

Hopefully the House of Representatives can hold our country together for four more years...stay strong and never give up!

 

[cindy25]

I agree this time with Trump

attach Obamacare repeal to EVERY damn piece of legislation. if the military doesn't get paid, so be it. if the SS checks bounce so be it.
Obama would be blamed, and he would blink. cut off the heat in the white house, abolish the secret service, sell air force one.

Sounds nice, but you know as well as me that would never happen.

Trump is playing his games... nothing changes... DOD budgets up, more fees/taxes/inflation, more pay for Congress, more corporate welfare... tax code increases.



Trump is the illusion of distraction

 

[Peace&Freedom]

I don't want Alex Jones being the face of the liberty movement. No way, no how.

Your dislike is not reflected by the current reality, that Jones IS the most successful pro-liberty voice in the alternative media. Not making peace with existing liberty media is a prescription for NOT building the alternative national cable liberty network, just as it was four years ago. We can grow our presence and be inclusive, or we can choose not to grow. I'd nominate a Abby Martin or Shelly Roche to be the equivalent of the 'Fox babes' on a liberty TV network, and add people like Ben Swann, but to ignore using the number 1 internet talk show host is absurd.

 

[eleganz]

what happened to the revolutionpac news network?


I mean Amber Lyons + Ben Swann + Phil Donahue + John Stossel = heavy artillery.

 

[eleganz]

She only serves at the pleasure of the Ron Paul supporters in Minnesota. See the MNGOP for details

Care to elaborate? I went to MNGOP, didn't see anything about Bachmann being our bitch.

 

[maskander]

Well at least the country goes down the drain on the democrats' watch.

Please leave the USA.

Well, that's sort of nasty language, and MN wouldn't appreciate it. But we were the wind under her wings when she was going to Ron's lunches and applauding wildly when people said 'Ron Paul 2012' back in 2010, and he endorsed her and our people thought she might end up being a real liberty candidate.... before she did what she did in the election, voted to extend the patriot act and (I'm pretty sure) for NDAA, and made her renewed vows to neoconservative foreign policy via pledge to Israel (not sure how she is on Libya, that might have been different, not involving Israel) etc. Then she really screwed the pooch this election with us although we kept civil relations, mostly, with her supporters. She waited to endorse Romney until AFTER her district convention endorsed her, I strongly suspect because she knew it might hurt her with our people there, and even in 2008 Ron had 4000 people show up to a rally in her district.

It is just that without us she can't carry it. I would have voted for her as CONGRESSWOMAN unless her opponent is particularly good, her bad votes were the same bad votes as 90% of congress made and I have no reason to think her opponent wouldn't make them too, and at least she knows the power we have in her district. I suspect this morning that point is driven home. But I think we need to move her on civil liberties at minimum. Alternatively, I think that district could be ours if we fielded the right candidate.

 

[Captain Shays]

You won't have Ron's votes until up to a month from now. They only have to do it before 'final certification', you will remember that final certification of the Iowa caucus came after NH. And maybe after SC.

I remember but has anyone done a compilation on Gary Johnson's numbers in the battleground states?

If the Tea Party wasn't so tainted from allowing themselves to be hijacked by neocons I might suggest trying to take them back. Now, I don't want anything to do with them. Let's just focus on the Liberty Movement and stand with resolve to not allow the same thing to happen to us

I want a professional and not a caricature.

 

[Uriah]

We need to primary Bachmann next election. She narrowly won her seat.

Bachmann -- 180,131
Graves -- 175,924

I know people are already aggregating data from around the country to find competitive races for liberty candidates.

Austen: The Tea Party is sticking it to Romney supporters because they said we did the same to them when McCain lost and we trashed Palin and they said the funny thing is Mitt was at the top of the ticket and ran twice and she was only the #2 like Ryan so they have a shot

Jayde: get this... as i was walking in the chilly fog here in california last night at 3:00 AM... because I could not sleep, my two hour journey took me past a big metal cable box. as i stopped to adjust my flashlight, to my disgust, i noticed a big ron paul sticker stuck on the box. let's just say when i walked away, my flashlight had bits of sticky paper stuck to it and the sticker was no more.
