Dumb. Fucking. Country.



Paul makes speeches of that quality on a daily basis these days. Anyone who can listen to that man on a regular basis and can still vote for a bill like this one is an absolute Traitor to this country and need to be expelled from government at the very least.

About Ron's presence in congress to "give people hope" I gotta ask; why would the powers that be want anyone to have any "hope" of minimalising government? Clearly they would want the hope to flow the other way, right? Towards their goals?

Oh, and about downing his plane: I heard that he doesn't fly at all. Not in many years... Don't know how to look that fact up though.

Nope. Controlled opposition. Hitler and Mao left a few dissident radio broadcasters in place, didn't silence all of the underground dissenting print media, etc. False hope is a very effective means of freezing dissent.

Not saying RP is controlled opposition - or am I? - but to answer your question there are very good reasons for the powers that be crowd to keep him around.

Upon further reflection I can see your point... And it makes me angry.

If Honest Ron turns out to be yet another Puppet I'll be one very unhappy camper indeed. :mad::mad::mad:
