Careful citizen. At the most-recent Warming Conference a scientist proposed labeling climate-deniers as "mentally ill" and sending them to hospitals to be cured of this deficiency. She got unanamious applause.
What part of "quoting from memory" because "being at work I cannot access youtube" and cannot provide a direct quote..... what part of that did you not comprehend??? I don't know how you became an engineer when you can't even read.
Article 6 has been amended dumbass (you can't even bother to read the Bill of Rights???). Amendment 10 clearly states Congress power is NOT infinite, but in fact limited..... most of the power is reserved to the People and the State Legislatures.
No. Yes. He supports gay marriage (even polygamy). Because freedom means being able to associate anyway the people wish.
And yes he opposes killing babies.... he's a doctor, why do you find that so shocking? Have you ever SEEN a photo of a 3 month old fetus. It looks just like a tiny baby, and has every Right to Life as any other baby.
>>>"the archetypal half-educated victimologist," - Ron Paul to Rep. Barbara Jordan (D) of Texas. "I think we can assume that 95 percent of the black men in that city [Washington] are semi-criminal or entirely criminal." - Ron Paul. "mostly black welfare recipients will feel justified in stealing from mostly white 'haves.' " - Ron Paul >>>
These words were not written by Ron Paul. They were written by a guy named Murray Rothbard. Meanwhile Dr. Paul was off delivering babies and saving patients (including providing FREE healthcare to the poor, including blacks and hispanics). I am sick and tired of this old shit about Dr. Paul being a racist. To quote the NAACP's former chair: "Ron Paul is not racist. I have known him many years and the charge is utter nonsense."
It wasn't P2P that made me stop buying music. It was youtube. If you can find almost any song you want just by searching youtube or some other video site, why bother downloading anything? Youtube is like radio for me... except I'm the DJ.
Microsoft only got 10 years, and they were not merely spying on people but also abusing their monopoly position to drive competitors out of business. (Kinda like what Comcast is doing now with Hulu, Amazon video streaming.) Google should receive a more-lenient settlement than 20 years.
Yeah I was highly offended by the girl-on-girl touching in Anne Frank. I'm scarred forever and think the government should ban that book from all libraries/bookstores everywhere. No it's not censorship..... it's "content filtering".
Woah. I channeled the British PM for a second there. Sorry.
Vice-versa the corproations use Democrat politicians to write regulations that FAVOR the corporations by blocking new competitors from entering the market. Or getting bailouts for their Chevy Volts, which they then ship-off to China. IMHO we'd actually be better-off without the regulations (except basic worker and customer rights), so corporations could not block the growth of new competitors like Ubuntu, Hulu, Netflix, megaupload, Solectria, and so on.
The bottom line: Both Republicans and Democrats pretty much suck. To favor one party over the other is pretty foolish.
Porn is no more detrimental than teaching kids "Everybody poops" and wiping the shit off their bottom. I've been downloading nude images ever since I got a computer with decent video (4000 color Commodore, 1985) and it hasn't had any detrimental effect. On the contrary it's probably had a GOOD effect overall, because I'm not going round raping women (or peeping through windows).
>>>"we know what is best for you" kind of mindset that few on the right have now (and the Tea Party is getting rid of the ones that remain)
Oh really? The Tea Party Caucus in the House voted 71% in favor of CISPA. They've been co-opted by the Republican Party (which acts like Democrats). By the way I agree the left/right paradigm is pointless.
It was originally a reference to the French Assembly of the 1790s, and has little relevance to the U.S. or modern politics. You are either for government control over individuals' choices, or against it. i.e. Statist or not.
>>> I have the option to have it turned off for me.
No you don't. The porn and nudity will be turned-off by default whether you like it or not. Next up: The government will "by default" block foxnews and infowars and 2600.com from your ISP.
Do I have to "opt in" if I want to read Huckleberry Finn or Anne Frank's uncensored diary? No. Free speech/press/expression means exactly that..... no censorship by the government of any book, paper, or website.
Awww c'mon. Like any of us would hestitate to shoot Saddam Hussein or Osama Bin Laden if given the opportunity. All tyrants that trample upon the people & mistreat them with prison, threats, or extortion deserve death. (I don't think RIAA's CEO has reached that point yet, but he's darn close.)
Well somewhat similar. They seized that website and caused millions of people to lose their files, but now the judge is saying the case cannot proceed, because the FBI never had authority to cease the site's servers.
Of course they don't have to win the case..... WMG tried to use a takedown notice via youtube, and that failed, so they called their politicians in D.C. and used a full seizure action instead. The FBI/politicians have driven the company out of business, just as their boss WMG desired. Yay?
As the Author of the Constitution James Madison wrote, "The power of the central government are few and defined, while the powers of the states are many (10th amend.)." He then proceeded to veto most of the laws that came across his desk.
So YES the Pauls are correct to oppose most (but not all) federal laws. We need another James Madison, and Ron and Rand are the closest thing we have to his philosophy of constitutional government.
Why do people think it's any more acceptable to use the hate speech "libtard" than to use the hate speech retard or fudge-packer or niger? ALL of these words should be excised from your speech. In other words: Start acting like an adult.
The creation of the Fed was not what ended child welfare or long work hours. Therefore there's no reason why we need this private Monopoly bank.
It's mission is to serve the corporations & the megarich, not the People, which means it has no legitimacy to exist. It needs to be ended and the power to coin currency put back in the hands of the People's Congress.
>>>The TSA has no jurisdiction over you in a private car
I suggest you look-up "VIPR teams" which are a recently-added extension of the TSA and routinely search people & cars along interstates (border states) and at malls, post offices, hotels, or while walking down the street (all states). Congress just recently approved money so they TSA/VIPR teams can be expanded to 5x as many as currently exist. Yay.
Sadly nobody will read Ron Paul's actual postition (he served black patients all the time, even in segregated Texas), because it's waaaay down here at the bottom of the page.
Dang. I guess this is how TV media falsehoods spread, and the truth never gets heard.
Opposes SOPA/CISPA. Opposes warrantless wiretapes or backdoors into websites. - Just thought I'd point that out. - For all the hate directed at him in the other article, I think You and Paul are in 99% agreement on these topics.
Nice way to spread FUD calling the Senator "extremist". People will walk-away and actually believe that falsehood. Well:
I've been listening to Rand since 2009 (when he first announced his intention to run). His ideas are more "calm" than those of his father, and he's more willing to compromise with his coworkers to get bills passed. Overall I have yet to hear any Rand position that I would object to.

It is bad to assume.

No.
Yes.

"No."
