Ron Paul Never Did Squat As A Congressman

[John P Slevin]

Who can name one actual thing Ron Paul accomplished via his membership in congress since he first was elected in 1976?

I ask this because I, as a longtime supporter of Ron Paul, who was there long before there was an internet, am seriously bothered by the blather of MOST on this forum, who seem to think of Ron Paul as some kind of infallible god, who CANNOT think for themselves (there are list moderators for that) and who somehow, STUPIDLY, thought Ron Paul actually had a chance to get nominated as the GOP presidential candidate.

So, again, who can name ONE THING Ron Paul ever accomplished as a congress critter.

Doesn't have to be anything major, but does have to be something...NAME IT!

When you cannot name it (cause he never accomplished a damn thing) join those of us who want to chuck the whole GOP thing.

One Congressmen cant egt anything done alone. he was the voice of reason among a herd of sheep. Only the mandate of the American people putting him in the executive's chair can get people to start listening to his ideas.

he started the revolution???

If it wasn't for him being in Congress, we wouldn't be having this discussion now. His Congressional seat was the boost he needed to gain our support.

As for specific accomplishments, I've got nothing.

You don't belong on this forum, go away or we will push the vanish button. By the way, I will tell you what he did, he never not once sold the American people out like all the others.

he started the revolution???

[Jodi]

Go crawl back underneath your bridge.

Maintaining his integrity and principles, not allowing himself to be bought off and not changing his votes with whatever way the wind was blowing. Do you know any other Congressmen who can say that? Any other presidential candidates? Over an entire career, against the majority? Name one. Just one.

 

[JoshLowry]

It's the things that he restrained from doing that make him the person he is.

 

[Henry]

He accomplished the amazing feat of being able to shave every single morning.

 

[mwkaufman]

If we had more congressmen that did nothing we'd be much better off.

 

[JahWarrior]

I've got an idea...

Why don't you tell us, what the REST of the bunch "accomplished" in that time?

 

[garrettwombat]

being in congress isnt about accomplishing great things... it is about making sure the president and government doesnt abuse power...

as long as he held the ideas of a free society he did exactly what his job is supposed to do.

The more inaction we can cause on behalf of the government the better.

I love Presidents and Senators and Congressmen that don't do a god damn thing.

ARGH Josh, go away so I can say what I want to to this creep!

 

[Spike]

It's not Dr. Paul's fault. What was he suppose to do? Surrender some of his principles for a bill to get passed? He's a very different man, he accomplished one thing that no one else in American history ever did which is to establish a perfect constitutional record for future Congressmen to follow. He is the supreme legislator that Thoreau wrote about.

He has introduced many bills that were tabled by the rest of the congressional scum. Now, you sir, be gone.

 

[Shinerxx]

NO! (just like Ron Paul about where he gets his marching orders)

John, your logic is seriously flawed.

We are in this mess because Congressmen and women are seeking to create some type of legacy for themselves by wrinting bills that are completely unconstitutional. Congress is supposed to be the voice of the people and protect our freedoms. They are not supposed to create uneeded legislation to create a legacy. I would argue that Ron's accomplishment is that during his many terms as a US congressmen he has never created unconstitutional or voted in favor of unconstitutional bills.
