I wonder when it became so utterly passe to adhere verbatim to the original ideals that the Constitution laid out. This article and all it's painful sarcasm is nothing short of silly and uneducated jabber concocted by a die-hard anti-conformist who'd rather be raging against whatever is catching on with the majority of dumb white-shoed college kids than actually admit that perhaps it's alright to like something good like Ron Paul and the Constitution and America's all but buried ideals.

Now that a bunch of dumbasses are supporting a transparent, uncompromising candidate that actually isn't self absorbed or corrupt in any way and who posses a perfect voting record it's time for the die-hard contrarians to start pissing on a good man just because some stupid people have taken up in the picket line.

Fucking uneducated. Piss off if all you can do is satirically wax lyrical about nothing at all.

I love how blatantly hard you obviously worked to sound intelligent in this, while still ignoring the fact that Ron Paul is a raving lunatic. I especially love the part where you call Ron Paul a good man. Is that what you call a good man in Georgia? I call it a racist nutcase. I also love how your last line explains everything you just said perfectly.
As far as perfect voting record goes, I wouldn't say that. Personally I'm all for same sex adoption. But I suppose you only went by the "perfect voting record" that the Ron Paul signs told you about.

Evansville is INDIANA. A minor detail, but it's in the article you linked to...



I was actually just now skimming this thread just to see if anyone else mentioned this first.
Don't worry about it though, Evansville really sucks, and so far as I can remember, the only positive thing I've seen about it in the national media was the time our last mayor got on the Daily Show to intentionally mock himself.

Can one of you Ron Paul asshats please explain to me just how it's ok for RP to be a total racist? How do you just totally ignore this? Oh..you must be racist yourself! If you think you're not, you're wrong. You support a bigot, you're a bigot. I really don't care if he eats pure energy and shits out flowers and kittens, he's a racist, therefore he's a piece of shit.

Also...last time I checked, his lack of a uterus gives him exactly 0% right to tell a woman what to do with hers. Once again...piece of shit.

Lincoln really did hate the idea of the federal reserve.
And he did make his own money,
Colonal Dick Taylor -"Why Lincoln, that is easy. Just get Congress to pass a bill authorizing the printing of full legal tender Treasury notes... and pay your soldiers with them, and go ahead and win your war with them also".
green-back anyone?

but think of it this way, this is the most money the libs and others that didnt like the rep or dems have payed out and its all going to the rep partie ,like it or not

you might call him crazy. but he might just be a smart con man. he has made 8.5 millon and growing for the rep. whatever

There, you see? It's not Ron Paul who's racist - it's minorities! They're the ones hanging nooses in trees to intimidate themselves, incarcerating themselves in disproportionate numbers, and denying themselves economic opportunities on the basis of their own skin color!

Those fucking jerks! I wouldn't be surprised if those silly black people had actually even enslaved themselves!

I'll bet those Indians even wiped themselves out just to make us look bad!

He doesn't adhere to the ideas of the Constitution. Almost everything that he would eliminate in government falls under the authority of the government as described by the Constitution. Read: Article 1 Section 8.

Not to mention the fact that he thinks that regulating companies from deciding how people can use the internet is a bad thing, or that only 5% of all black people have sensible political views (well, sensible according to his insane views), and wants to eliminate the EPA (because, somehow, companies will abide by property laws rather than environmental laws?).

Besides, most everyone here didn't like him before dumbasses started supporting him, so where exactly is all this 'contrarian' nonsense coming from?

I don't know if you quite understand. The FBI raided the office sure. And even if the stuff wasn't real money, fact is, no one was arrested. No one was charged, the FBI took alot of precious metals, with real value. Again, with no charges filed. One must think that a business operating for 9 years, in the open, with several million dollars woth of hard assests (gold, silver, platinum, and copper) would have been closed down a long time ago. Fact is, Federal Reserve notes aren't worth the paper they are printed on, they are backed by government promise. The only thing keeping them of any vaule, was the US government's integrity. The US integrity has taken it's biggest hit in the history of the nation, and as such our money has less street value then the Canadian currecy. The idea of a form of currency or coins with intrinsic value is a real threat to the governments monopoly money. While the Ron Paul dollar was probably a bad move, it doesn't remove the fact that the government stole several million dollars (Federal Reserve notes) worth of precious metals from the owners of said metals.



Um, what's the intrinsic value of gold, other than that people believe it's worth something? What can you do with it?



It is a very good conductor actually. Also, it's quite malleable and doesn't tarnish.



It's an excellent conductor, indeed. But it's so lacking in structural strength it's all but useless for any application other than microcircuitry.

And it's entirely too malleable. You can't actually make anything much with it, apart from ornaments. Well, damn, what a basis for an economy.

Snarking aside, gold is valuable because people believe it's valuable. Which seems to make nonsense of skinyboi's claim that this Ron Paul money is intrinsically valuable.



Im against the gold standard loonies, but gold is pretty much agreed upon by by countries to be a store of value. The IMF and World Bank don't allow you to make your deposits without some amount of gold to back it up. Although it is questionable as to how much gold is actually worth anything vs being a sort of "universal currency" to be used as an intermediary trade device (meaning gold could be replaced with "World Dollars" or some shit like that).

Although I think people should be free to make their on currencies. If people want to accept it, that's up to them. Currency restrictions are rarely good. It's best to allow citizens to trade in whatever currency the free market decides. Some countries have averted financial disaster by switching over to the use of USD, and some countries have tried to keep foreign currency out of private hands (like Zimbabwe, in an effort to keep high foreign reserves in order to buy essentials from overseas).

"Snarking aside, gold is valuable because people believe it's valuable. Which seems to make nonsense of skinyboi's claim that this Ron Paul money is intrinsically valuable. "
Gold has value because it is limited in qunatity. It's been used as a form of currency since trade was established. While I agree that it has value based on what people belive, because it is finite, and cannot be reproduced, the fact that it HAS value isn't a subject for debate. I also made no mention of the Ron Paul money' being valuable beyond the actual metal it was stamped out of.
Now on to the juicy bits on the racisim card.
I'm curious if you read the entirety of the article. Or, if any of you are old enough to have watched the riots as they took place. I remember this fiasco and remember clearly the news reports of 'Can't we all just get along?' If King had been a white man, and performed in the same fashion the exact same outcome would have occured. Minus the riots. (Remember the college student that was tasered at the Kerry questioning?)
The point of the line "Opinion polls consistently show that only about 5% of blacks have sensible political opinions, i.e. support the free market,
individual liberty, and the end of welfare and affirmative action" revolves around the term 'sensible' meaning what Ron Paul considers as such. One could argue that those Paul detractors could consider their opinions 'sensible' compared to his.
Were the riots in proportion to the abuse that King sustained? Why were the Koreans targeted? They aren't white. Why were the Jew's targeted in Germany. The perception of financial inequality. The perception that the White guy gets every thing while the Black man must fight for every thing he has. I would suspect that most of the subscribers to this site are White, and Male. Did you have to earn your education? Do you have to work for a living? Did you ever recieve a promotion over someone of color, when you had less qualifications? Do you have scolarships aimed specifically towards your ethnicity?
I happen to hold the idea that ALL (WO)MEN are created equal. As such every one must work and earn their way. No one, not a sinlgle person, should ever be granted rights of privlage over any other. Protection over any other. And if you do something that causes harm to any one other then yourself you should be held responsible for that action. In the case of the riots, the rioters should not be excused of the actions simply because they are black. They should be held responsible because they are human. As I read this article, this is the point I get from it.
Now I'll sit back, and watch the incoming comments and slander against my person.

No one is here judging Ron Paul because he's a white, stupid old guy. It's because he says racist shit and espouses racist views.
