Ron Paul revolution dead

Turtle · Jul 17, 2012

The phrase and context isn't meant to be taken literally. The principles of the Founding Fathers, and of Ron Paul, have nothing to do with milk, moonshine, or dry toast.

He had some great ideas but without a congress to back up those ideas they would not go far. That is what I don't understand about the whole he is the only guy thing.

Because everybody else represents more of the same. Dr. Paul was the last exit off the road to destruction.

No, "the armed populace" is the "Last" exit, and that is for a good reason.....

The armed citizens of the United States are the ULTIMATE check and balance to a government that is out of control. That is EXACTLY whey Obama and Co. are doing everything that they can to get our guns out of our hands. That is NOT going to happen. ANY attempt to remove my guns or do away with our Constitution will be met by what ever amount of force is needed to insure our freedom. THAT scares the pants off of politicians.

That is what FIRE in the gut looks like. That is what our Founding Fathers had and Ron Paul did not. It will soon be 'put up or shut up' time. Choose your sides now, bet the rush! Freedom to the right, slavery to the left!

There was no Ron Paul revolution. There was no Ron Paul movement. There was a Ron Paul candidacy and it went nowhere fast.

Funny, you could say the same thing about Romney.

The difference between this statement and one from BBob is that maybe at some moment in time there might have actually been a Ron Paul revolution or a movement among an insignificant group of supporters (+/- 10%) - but like a fart at the beach, his "movement" had no staying power and was hardly noticed. In the future, historians will hold him in the same regard as Harold Stassen.

Some people apparently think the Ron Paul Revolution lives and dies with Ron Paul. It doesn't. It's a revolution of ideas, not of men, or of a man.

I don't think so. Jane Fonda and Obama sound the same. Never heard Turtle sound like that.

The one thing I learned while growing up is try to seperae the B.S. from the icecream. With both canidates I see no icecream so i will have to choose the pile with less stink. At least Romney has business experiance, and for now dosent seem hell bent on turning the U.S.A. into the U.S.S.R. . Of course that may change when he gets into office, but Oboma has promised tohis sheeple he will finnish what he started do we realey want that?
