Ron Paul Supporters are either fat, or crazy looking

5'9" 195 - Americans are fat - got to walmart and look around!

If we are fat it won't be for long. All that door to door, plus donating so much youre out of food...

 

[thehittgirl]

Yep...

5'9" 195 - Americans are fat - got to walmart and look around!

I had bariatric(weight loss) surgery and have a lap band. I've lost weight on my own before quite a few times but wanted it permanent this time around. So far fairly good.

But anyway, yeah I agree. The Drs are swamped with people having surgery done.

Bottom line, we need more exercise and reduce portion sizes. Still guilty as charged on the exercise.

Why would fat people support Ron? Richardson went after the hefty people's vote - he promised them he would get them "protection" under the ADA.

 

[thehittgirl]

Need to walk more and....

That's us. I've been crabby from not having snack food. We bought two printer cartridges on this check plus the donations. I hate ramen pride noodles and will let the family eat them. Need to keep the weight off anyway

OMG!! Hilarious!!!!

We Can always Count on Mike for a good laugh.

Thank You!

YW

I already applied for Court Jester in Ron Paul's kingdom when he wins.

He said "Uh Mike, im not going to be KING...........I dont want to run your life or police the world, or decide how to spend your money for you. I want you to decide whats best for you and your family and make your own decisions."

I thought that was pretty cool. I think Ill vote for him.

6'2 165.... kinda crazy lookin'.

 

[micahnelson]

Shouldn't this be a poll?

a) Fat
b) Crazy Looking
c) Fat and Crazy Looking
d) Not a Ron Paul Supporter

Climb radio towers alot as part of my business, so its kinda hard to grow that "winter coat", otherwise I probably would since thats my only exercise and I eat lots of carbs.

If you go to wal-mart and look down the isles, everything you see is carbs carbs carbs sugar sugar sugar. I think thats the main problem, not that people are lazy.

 

[margomaps]

This is some hilarious coverage... It's so blatant in what they are trying to do...

These guys just want to make us all look as crazy as possible.

I have to disagree. The long-haired hippy looking guy had some character, but the rest of the audience they showed looked pretty darn normal to me.

I've seen a lot weirder folk at Ron Paul rallies than that, believe me.

 

[quickmike]

Bush by far has the best rallies. HANDS DOWN!!!!

6'0" 315 here...

Of course, that was 355 6 weeks ago.

Bariatric Patients for Ron Paul??? I know I did the local Walk From Obesity with my Ron Paul T-shirt on...just wish SOMEONE would have commented on it.

[thehittgirl]

Awesome!

I can never attend those obesity walks but always hear of them. The hospital where I had mine done had one. Good way to get the message out. I know even though people don't say much, I know they see it. I try to wear my shirt as much as possible

WTG on the weight loss.

 

[JMann]

I guess since RP supporters are all pot smokers they all sit around on the couch all day and eat munchies. Except to get up every few days to throw the frisbee to get some exercise.

 

[IRO-bot]

Don't forget the hackysack. Way better than frisbee, consumes less energy.

It was my first ever charity walk...3 miles. I'm glad I did it, but it kicked my a** good.

Several of the hospitals down here that do bariatric procedures got together and sponsored the walk - it was a nice day down near Downtown Dallas, and I made sure to take the course that included walking the streets

Were I still at my old job, I'd own several RP T-shirts and wear them everyday. Not so much here, unfortunately (stupid business-casual dress code!)

I'm not trying to put anyone down. I'm just commenting on the camera treatment and the sound effects that they're using when they show the people. They're focusing on specific things, and trying to paint a picture.

I have no problem with the diversity of Ron Paul's support. America is a very diverse place, and it's only encouraging to me that Ron Paul attracts all types.

 

[uraloony]

5'10" and 170lbs. I work out constantly and I've lost around 40lbs of fat and gained 10lbs of muscle in the last year.

Guess I'm not stereotypical.

 

[JenHarris]

Guilty as charged. But I'm looking for a cheap bike if anyone wants to donate one to the make all Ron Paul supporters skinny foundation.

Hey this reminds me of an idea I had for someone in my meetup - he's losing a lot of weight and I told him he should have a pledge drive where he collects donations to Ron Paul for every pound he loses. It was supposed to be called Pounds for Paul.

Not sure if it's actually doable but we all had a laugh at the idea

 

[ConstitutionGal]

I am old, fat, AND weird. I must be making up for some of you normals.

Guess I'll have to join you..only replace weird with constitutionalist....wait.....according to the FBI....that alone makes me a terrorist......

Guess I'll have to be an old, fat, terrorist....LOL
