**Statement from Donald Luskin to Ron Paul Supporters**

[revolutionary8]

Calling your bluff

I can see that I'm in the minority when I say this but...

I respect Don Luskin's decision and I hope he finds a way to make a difference; I thank him for his role in helping the revolution. Frankly guys, he did more to help spread Dr. Paul's message than a great many of us here.

I disagree.
He did more to help McPain's message than "a great many of us here".

I will commend you on both the front sided and back sided attack tho. It stung
FOR A SEC.

( not that it was intentional)
"they know not what they do"
myself included.

I mean, look at how many times we've preached,"it's not the man, it's the message." We must infect others with the message. I hope this is what's going on.

ET TU. BRUTE?



ps i was homeschooled.

it is about the message...but how are you going to get mccain to move to better economic policies with such a bad foreign policy! mccain supports the war.

McPain's message is PAIN.
Ron Paul's message is LOVE.
They don't go together.
They are both men in their 70's.
One spent a life preaching Love and Life,
The other spent a life promoting self destruction and taking as many down with you while you go.

Even Paul has shown that he's willing to compromise (West Virginia). If you have a chance to whisper in the devil's ear, would you refuse?

That wasn't a compromise. That was local Huckabee campaign buying the local Ron Paul support for 3 delegates.

He can join McCain's team along with other patriots like Mexican reconquista Juan Hernandez. He's in real great company. My god, what a joke this is.

Seriously.......

Talk about tilting at windmills.......

 

[Dave Pedersen]

I can understand why Luskin would not want to play second fiddle to Schiff in a needless role as "advisor". But going to McCain.. I wonder who broached this idea, Luskin or McCain? Either way it looks like betrayal.

My bet is Luskin saw something in HQ which didn't sit well with him. Perhaps a general unidentifiable malaise of the kind no good intentions can surmount but can only be cured by excision en masse.

Luskin was in the inner circle just long enough to learn all the campaign strategies for every contingency. Things HQ would never dream of divulging to the grassroots for instance. And now they are dropped in the lap of McCain courtesy of Mr. Luskin. Now Ron cannot argue that McCain is ill equipped to handle the economy since his former advisor is now assisting him. Looks like we lost several things with Luskin's change of loyalties.

 

[praxisseizure]

please give me a break as a thoughtful human being. republicans, be damned for what they've done. I hope my instincts are correct. And correct from the beginning. Ron Paul is the ONLY way this country will turn around. PERIOD! woe is he who votes for anything but what he believes in. woe is he who contributed to the downfall of an entire nation. woe is he who can sleep at night knowing he had a say, even but one vote, in the misery of generations to come. woe is America if it cannot wake up from it's slumber beyond all calamity until it is on their doorstep. woe is America if it cannot recognize the cause of its misery.

 

[ClockwiseSpark]

My hope is to move McCain in the direction of Dr. Paul’s policies.

LMAO!

 

[MayTheRonBeWithYou]

My fear is that Luskin might have been told by RON that an indepenent run was ruled out. Thus, knowing that the GOP nod was out of reach, he decided to move on. Luskin seemed to be pushing for an independent Ron by Ron this year.

 

[Carole]

Luskin said in the you tube video with Neil Cavuto that Dr. Paul does not need an advisor. Maybe he meant that. Dr. Paul is very well self-schooled in economics. Could be he knows more than Luskin.

He has Peter Schiff as an advisor after all who is very highly regarded.

 

[Carole]

But McCain has all those PPT ( Pres Working Group) to rely on.
And PHil Gramm, and you know Phil Gramm and blah-blah-blah. I rely on my friends. MY friends.

Why would he want Luskin?

After the question Paul asked McCain at the last debate, he knows he needs him.

 

[JohnnyWrath]

That answer doesn`t satisfy me.....Fuck him.

+1

 

[Carole]

I would say that is ridiculous. McCain is an extremely arrogant man. He has no plans to actually deal with the economy. He will leave it up to his "friends"- Phil Gramm, etc.

 

[Carole]

He will drop all the right buzz words if necessary just to get nominated/elected. But you do not learn economics unless you love it and certainly not in a few months. He has no interest in economics and this makes no sense when he has all those important guys to "help him" with the economy. He has no real interest in "seeing more sunshine." No clue.

There is another reason McCain wanted Luskin. Now what is it?

somebody should add this to ronpaultimeline.com, the sites not working correctly for me for some reason.
