[Video] Ron Paul farewell speech on House floor 11/14/12

Here's the Tube:

it looks like someone put it on the front page already.

The guy said something like "such applause is inappropriate" or something. I wish someone would have said "You're inappropriate!!!!" LOL

But it was OKAY to shower Benjamin Netanyahu with applause. (Oh, I forgot... They're getting paid big bucks to serve their biggest constituent)

I wish the speech was transcribed. It would be very long, but worth it.

Great speech, can't wait for part 2!

Actually, there won't be a part 2. That was the whole thing. Apparently, there was some doubt whether Ron would be allowed to give the whole thing at once and it looked like he was going to have to split it up into two parts. But "they" decided to go ahead and let him do it all at once. So that's pretty much it.

If anyone wants me to create video clips of specific parts of the speech, let me know. There are some really powerful quotes in there.

 

[affa]

I love that man.

That was a powerful speech as a whole. Start to finish he laid it all out. There will be many quotes from this speech, good pics of Ron with quotes.

Me too affa, I love that man too

edit: Maybe we could post them here? or a new thread, of quotes with pics for Facebook, Twitter, etc..?

I hope with some much needed down time, Dr. Paul would write a biography. I don't mean a "tell all" but get his life story down on paper from his humble beginnings to his formative years, his experiences in Congress, etc..

Also, as a person who is a history buff, what do you think about a Ron Paul museum? I know he's probably too humble to consider something like that but I would hope that his legacy is preserved for history - same thing for the Ron Paul Revolution itself. I want the facts and events preserved and not have it marginalized like what we have seen done to him / us in the past. Has anyone ever given this any thought?

I'd like to direct those interested in this topic to a very good podcast "school sucks project" in which a very intelligent guest is on the show. Larken Rose he explains the myth of authority how the belief in government is nothing more than a superstition. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fwlq6vtEw_g

Agreed, School Sucks is one of the best liberty oriented podcasts out there, hands down. And Larken Rose is brilliant.

There should be a national holiday in honor of this man.

How about a website called, "The Ron Paul Library", sort of like a Presidential library but with way more stuff? All his congressional speeches, papers, links to youtube news appearances by date/issue, etc..

Edit: I guess this is a start

Apparently there used to be a Ron Paul Library but now it's offline. I think there should be one, now that he's retired.

I sure want to make sure his Texas Straight talk and House speeches are preserved when his House web page is no longer up....

There was one once I think, but it went down after the 2008 election. Specs shlurped up the contents at the time, I believe, but it would need to be hosted, along with what is on his web page. Does anyone know if they plan to do something or if supporters have to do it?

Yes. I mined ALOT of stuff early on from RPL. Can't quite get a grip on a concept? Hit the RPL. Working through a knee jerk reaction? Hit the RPL. Trying to explain something to a friend? Hit the RPL.

I really miss it. -thanks for the archive link!

A source like that is indispensable for the liberty Padawan and the learned.

look at this from RPA:

http://www.ronpaularchive.com/1983/04/3904/

1983 he said "we need to stop stationing intelligence agents in our embassies"

BENGHAZI!

Ron Paul was right, again.

Tom Woods mentioned in his speech at PF that he is considering writing a book about him.

I look forward to buying that book.

Tom Woods to write an official biography? that would be awesome and a bestseller.
