You are talking about what you know nothing about again. Read up on Ron Paul. He's more Libertarian than GOP. In fact, he doesn't stand more much the GOP stands for when it comes to the economy.

Again, you are still living in this old paradigm of GOP versus Dem. We are living in a different world now where that paradigm is useless. This isn't about GOP vs Dem. They are both corrupted parties. Now the only thing that will serve is to understand the problem and target a solution that can fix the problem. If a candidate understands the problem and solution, then he is the best candidate. Who gives a shit what party he comes from? That is irrelevant....at least to anyone who cares about this country.

Throw off your blinders and stop voting down the party line. That paradigm is dead


You and Ron Paul are Rs.......with a twist. Nonetheless, you are still Rs. You have the same mindsets. You think nearly the same as the rest of your cohort. You are so caught up in your own concerns that you could care less about the surrounding community. You don't want to pay taxes; you are terrified that someone else might benefit from what taxes you do pay, and you want gov't to only do that which benefits you and helps you in your singular efforts to accumulate wealth. You don't have a clue what community means and what the modern nation state is all about. At one time, I didn't think your thinking was all that bad.........now I realize its that which is causing the decay and downfall of this country.

To me, you, R. Paul, Bush, Koch, Cantor et al.........are all the same except with some minor variations that you all see as significant but in reality are very small. While Dems are not wonderful, they are no where near as corrupted as the GOP. Since Reagan, this country has been hell bent on enriching the wealthy, promoting corps and screwing the little guy. That's what the GOP has become. And that's what all this talk about free markets and limited taxation is designed to do. You think Medicare and SS will destroy this country. LOL. What's destroying this country is you all wanting a free ride.

The truth is you had a weak moment and bought into Obama. Now you have defaulted back to type.........I understand. What I don't understand is why you think the rest of us are drinking the same koolaid. Ron Paul is a little [and I don't mean in height] man who wants to abolish the dept of education and most gov't agencies, withdraw from the UN, abolish medicare, SS, the IRS and the Federal Reserve, eliminate the separation of church and state, would vote against the Civil Rights act of 1964, questions the validity of global warming and doesn't think it would hurt the economy even if it is true......I could go on a listing stuff he supports that I find thoroughly disgusting and reactionary and that would take us back to a darker time for this nation. They paint a picture of a narrow and facile man who cares only about himself.........a fact you seem to desperating want to ignore. To me, R Paul is a typical Texas R. And his son is no different. . And they don't care about you other then suckering you into believing their twisted logic. Enjoy!
