WTH?
He is still trying to get delegates in the states that have already voted…
BUTT THE FUCK OUT YOU LOONEY SUMBITCH!
Ron who?
Wha happened to the previous post? vv
Comments off??? Never seen such a thingy here.
Or should we send our comments in fortune cookie form?
As for that little buzzing sound, Ditto Caged Insanity.^^
Breaking news!
My friends who are Ron Paul fanatics say he’s not out of the race. He’s just no longer actively seeking delegates…
^ Not dead, just not actively seeking air.

Well Duhah!!
Next question: who will he endorse?
In 2004, he endorsed – himself.
In 2008, he endorsed Cynthia McKinney, Ralph Nader, and two others.
Doug, I stole that.
I don’t care what Ron Whazhisname does as long as he doesn’t launch a third party run and syphon off Romney votes.
“My friends who are Ron Paul fanatics say he’s not out of the race. He’s just no longer actively seeking delegates…”
Patrick, what do they say about Elvis?
“I don’t care what Ron Whazhisname does as long as he doesn’t launch a third party run and syphon off Romney votes.”
Right there is the danger.
Amen, blindshooter.
That is what concerns me.
The old codger needs to retire before he REALLY screws up this country!
*My apologies for the rant earlier. I am sick to death of people who do not have our country’s best interest at heart jacking around!
Melissa, sometimes things need to be spoke plain.
MiT: I’ve got more reason than some to appreciate Ron Paul, and I still agree with you.
rickn8or: Elvis is still in the building* … and I anticipate him to negotiate the selection of the Miracle Dark Horse Candidate at the brokered Republican convention.
* As an Elvis fanatic, I really feel that people should not be using Him as an example of flights-from-reality. It grieves me deeply to see him likened to urban legends, conspiracy theories and and the notion that politicians (particularly Democratic ones) have the best interests of citizens at heart.
Oh, and I’m hoping that Mitt Romney will somehow talk Paul into sending his fanatics his way instead of making a Nader run of it.
^okay… so where are the little green men with big heads that told Paul and his followers to keep suckin’ on that bong?^
;)
Look gang, don’t be mean to Ron Paul.
He has his own ideas, some of which are good.
Be GLAD he dropped out and didn’t do a Ross Perot and screw up the country for another four years (screw up as in Obama, like a case of herpes, gives us more.)
Off topic, more or less:
Rand Paul, (not Ron) is certainly not out there by himself:
http://washington.cbslocal.com/2012/05/14/tsa-agents-conduct-full-monty-pat-down-on-henry-kissinger/
Even if you don’t know who Henry Kissinger is, could a guy who looks like him, in a wheel chair no less, possibly be a security threat? This is what happens when you hire the guys McDonalds wouldn’t hire and put them on the front lines of national security.
Paul (19): I’m not whipping Ron, strange though I think he is.
And I will be glad as long as he does the right thing; which I think there’s some chance he will.
I just wish he’d go gracefully, quietly, and all that. Of course I wished that about several of them.
Oh, I’ll whip Ron. How many of those “good ideas” did he accomplish, *at all*?
When an advocate goes long enough without achieving anything they advocate, and in fact doing things like slipping pork into bills and symbolically voting against them, knowing they’ll pass, it is legitimate to suspect sabotage.
I’m not against smaller government at all, I’m against people who claim to be against it and work toward it or stand idly by while sucking support away from others who actually have a track record.
Ron Paul did not say he was out of the race he said he was no longer seeking delegate votes. Please don’t mis-understand this man.
Heaven knows the ‘Ronulans’ understood him completely.
Merovign, Spin:
All good points. And I surely did notice that he didn’t say he was going away.
One reason I don’t whip him is I ignore him. I’m hoping that’s going to come out okay. I really *don’t* understand him, and I think he’s probably nuts. I really, really hope he isn’t going to somehow screw up this election cycle.
It bothers me that a lot of young people pay attention to him. I can understand their total frustration with our dysfunctional political situation, and I share their “the Republican Establishment Party doesn’t represent me” rage, if that’s what it is. The problem is that embracing this nut case means you either haven’t heard a lot of what he has to say or are pretty clueless about a great deal.
Latching onto one or two things a politician says that you like, while ignoring the 95% insanity is a thing humans are prone to, and it tends to get bad results.

You’re right. Sayin’ you’re out and bein‘ out are two different things.
Also, sayin’ you’re in and bein‘ in are two different things.
MiT, I forgot to say how much I liked that.
And just a flight of fantasy here, but since the Presidency now seems to be all about being the first of something one is (presumably) not (e.g. Clinton — the first black president; Obama — the first gay president) I’m thinking:
“Hey, just supposed there was A Brokered Convention, they picked Paul and he won the election. Soon there could be a Newsweek cover proclaiming ‘Ron Paul — The First Martian President.’”
(…ok, so maybe I whipped him a little after all…)
Well, heck – now the 26 people who voted for him are gonna have to find someone else to vote for.
But still, Ron Paul has a Place in Government. Appoint him Head of the Federal Reserve.
“The problem is that embracing this nut case means you either haven’t heard a lot of what he has to say or are pretty clueless about a great deal.”
This is excatly what I have learned about 99.9% of the people I know personally who support Ron Paul. They don’t know most of what he’s said/done over the last 40+ years and they don’t know the history of anything, anywhere. I tried to get one to nail down the actual law that is broken when we’ve gone to war. It eventually devolved into “I feel like the people were lied to” when I pointed out the entire history of how the military (with actual evidence) has been used since the 1st use after drafting the constitution.

Perzactly
katzemeow (28): your experience might be different, but what I’ve noticed is that if one attempts to discuss facts with them, they stick their fingers in their ears and then become loud and aggressive.
ZZMike (27): Appoint him Head of the Federal Reserve. ROFL!!!! Oh please yes!
