Senate Armed Services Committee: "Romney doesn't know what he's talking about"

Full article from yahoo.com


PEACE and PROSPERITY 2012! Vote for Ron Paul!

Paul speaks in Nevada after Florida polls closed



With 95% reporting out of Florida CNN.com reports the following numbers:

Romney: 769,513 46%
Gingrich: 530,044 32%
Santorum: 221,767 13%
Paul: 116,466 7%

Florida, and beyond

As I write this, cnn.com the following results in the Florida primary:

With 82% reporting
Romney: 763,848 46%
Gingrich: 524,741 32%
Santorum: 219,634 13%
Paul: 115,271 7%

Although much more positive outcome compared to the '08 election, still only good enough for a fourth place finish. Not bad for not having spent a dime in the state. More than doubled the numbers from last election.

I have a gut feeling that my boy Ron Paul will do much, MUCH better in the western states. After these losses in Florida for Santorum and Gingrich, I don't think they can hold out much longer. The gingrich campaign has already lowered their expectations regarding the western states, even though Newt has 'vowed' to be the GOP nominee. Santorum is just simply out of it.

In the west, sandly Romney will do better as well, considering the Mormon population in those states. I feel ROn Paul will do better on the left coast simply because his non-interventionist forign policy, as well as his stance on the war on drugs. Not to mention his fiscal policy.

By the way, I don't think Romney should ever attempt to carry a tune EVER again.

RON PAUL 2012!!! VOTE FOR PEACE, PROSPERITY, AND LIBERTY!

Gingrich thugs harass Paul supporter

This is despicable. Gingrich needs to answer for this QUICK!

FREEDOM, LIBERTY, PEACE and PROSPERITY will NOT be intimidated!

Ron Paul on 'State of the Union' on CNN yesterday

Poll watch, eve of the Florida primary

Today, on the eve of the Florida primary, the polls on realclearpolitics.com show that, in FLorida, Mitt Romney is at 41.6%, Gingrich is at 29.1%, Santorum is at 12.8%, and Paul is at 10.1%. I feel like Santorum is likely to drop out of the race soon. He's running our of money quick, polls show him very, very weak for the February states. Santorum is not on the ballot in all states, neither is Newt Gingrich, plus he and Newt are running the farthest behind Barack Obama in a head to head poll: Obama 50.6%; Santorum 40.6%

Here's a look at the rest of the field:

Obama 47.5% Romney 45.1%

Obama 47.7% Paul 42.3%

Obama 50.6% Santorum 40.6%

Obama 51.9% Gingrich 39.1%

Looks like Ron Paul poses a REAL threat to Mitt Romney! All this talk about 'outsiders' lately...who's more outsider than who and who's been in the private this or that. Some say Paul is not an outsoder because he's been in congress for 20+ years, BUT if you look at his voting record and look at his politcal stances, you'll see that he is the most "outsider" as you get. He votes against governemnt spending, he votes against international intervention, and government intervention in our lives.

I always hear people say "Ron Paul is crazy," sometimes they use other words, but, if those people would actually sit down and take the time to research the candidates, they would a very different opinion of at least Ron Paul if not any other candidate. Ron Paul actually cares about you as an individual and respects the fact that you are entitled to inalianable rights, and that you should be able to run your life as you see fit as long as you're not hurting anyone or imposing on anyone else.

I saw today someone said "ObamaPaul2012." How can you make that comparison? Again, Look up the facts your self anddecide with your heart, not what the media tells you too, not what your parents tell you, not even what your spouse tells you.

Mitt Romney is a liar, he cannot be trusted!

Just to emphasize my point from the previous post.

Poll Watch 2012

Of course, Mitt Romney is all over the news because a new poll in Florida has him holding a solid lead. According to realclearpolitics.com, Romney has 41% support in Florida, with Gingrich at 29.7%, Santorum at 13.5% and Ron Paul at 9.8%. Paul's numbers are rising slowly but surely. Nationally, Gingrich is ahead with 30.3%, Romney with 27.5%, Santorum at 16.3%, and Paul at 12.8%. Santorum has experienced a little boost since yesterday, I hate to say it, but probably a little sympathy support because his daughter is in the hospital.

Strangely enough, an NBC/Marist poll split Santorum support between Gingrich and Romney if Santorum were to drop out, why!? How would no support go to Ron Paul? Are Santorum supporters that entrenched, that blind to see that Ron Paul is the only logical candidate? I truely believe that Ron Paul will blow the rest of them out of the water in the western states.

Also from realclearpolitics.com, polls from states that are having primaries and caucuses in February (after Florida). These states are: Maine and Nevada caucuses February 4th; Colorado and Minnesota caucuses, and Missouri primary February 7th; Arizona and Michigan primary February 28th.

NEVADA: Romney 33%, Gingrich 29%, Paul 13%, Santorum 3%.

MAINE: Romney 24%, Gingrich 18%, Paul 5%, Santorum 2%

COLORADO: Gingrich 37%, Romney 18%, Paul 6%, Santorum 4%

MINNESOTA: Gingrich 36%, Romney 18%, Santorum 17%, Paul 13%

MISSOURI: No polls yet.

MICHIGAN: Romney 31%, Gingrich 26%, Paul 14%, Santorum 10%

ARIZONA: Gingrich 28%, Romney 23%, Paul 8%, Santorum 3%

I think it goes without saying that Santorum has had it. He'll probably throw in the towel pretty soon. he's broke, his dughter's sick, and he lack the support needed...he lacks the type of support that is required to win. PLUS, I haven't been able to confirm this myself, but apparently Gingirch and Santorum are NOT on the ballot in a whole bunch of states, and that they both would need a miracle straight out of heaven in order to win enough delagates to win the nomination.

Also from realclearpolitics.com a poll showing each individual candidate against President Obama:

Obama 47.2% vs Romney 45%

Obama 51.5% vs Gingrich 39.1%

Obama 50.5% vs Santorum 40.3%

Obama 47.5% vs Paul 41.7%

These are the most interesting numbers to me. Ron Paul is the only one that comes close other than Romney. These numbers show that Gingrich and Santorum are both quite unelectable against Obama. This information also shows that Romney is probably shaking in his boots right now. The status quo is so afraid of Ron Paul! That is why you only hear the media ONLY mentioning Gingrich and Romney, they're pretending that Ron Paul is just some old kook and that people are not listening to him. But, we ARE listening, people are beginning to wake up and realize what's so wrong with this country, that we as citizens have let the government sneak into our homes and personal lives.

Romney should be VERY worried at this point. Ron Paul can beat him. I think that Ron Paul is more attractive to more people. The only reason the Romney is ahead at the moment is because his supports are main stream...and he's filthy stinkin' rich. But again, there's another reason he's MORE electable than Romney. Paul is more trustworthy. Romney (just like his business dealings) is very shady, he's very rehersed and plastic.

Don't forget: in PRIMARY states, you must be a registered republican to vote. In CAUCUS states, it doesn't matter which party you belong to.

News Clippings

Just moments ago, Rick Santorum checked his three-year-old daughter into a Philly hospital. Isabella Santorum, suffers from a chromosomal condition called Trisomy 18. Santorum cancelled several events in Florida on sunday. Although I don't agree with the man across the board, my prayers are with him and his family, I hope she's ok.

Also, just moments before the Santorum thing broke this evening, former republican candidate, Herman Cain has officially announced his endorsement of Newt Gingrich.
My two cents: This should hurt Gingrich. But it probably won't. It should hurt him because if we haven't forgotten so quickly, Herman Cain was accoused by several...several women of sexual abuse. It's pretty much the reason Cain dropped out of the race. So now we have a serial liar/horn-dog/ladies man/cheater endorsing Newt Gingrich who cheated on and then divorced his first two wives while they were in the hospital fighting deadly illnesses.
Newt was in Florida today touting his 'conservative' record. "We have to have a conservative" Gingrich said at Aloma Baptist Church. Good, he just endorsed Ron Paul. Paul is the most conservative one of the four candidates still in it. Gingirch has been seen everywhere praising Obamacare and the bailouts. Let's not forget what Santorum noted: He shared a couch with Nancy Pelosi!!! Not to mention the whole 'language of the ghetto' thing, I won't even go there. Needless to say, Herman Cain's endorsement won't help Gingrich because Gingrich was going to lose anyway, now, he will lose badly!

Mitt Romney is just a complete liar. The worse thing about it is, that he's good at it. Mitt Romney will only make things worse. More war (probably with Iran, possibly with Pakistan, North Korea, and Venezuela, and from there you get WWIII), and in turn more debt, and more spending. Our country will not be safer. We will be put in danger in Mitt Romney is elected. If Gingrich is elected. If Santorum is elected. Only Ron Paul should be elected. He will literally solve all the country's problems.
Ron Paul is a true patriot and bilieves in the constitution.

Ron Paul, the RE-founding Father

I'm pretty sure that the founding fathers would be proud of one, and ONLY one politician: of course, Ron Paul.
Strickly adhearing to the constitution, Ron Paul advocates a non-interventionist foreign policy. Ron Paul would bring home all of the troops from around the world. This, not only would increase our own safety, but enable us to better protect our own boarders. The key focus in this foreign policy is us...as in U.S., focus is totally on us. Bring the troops home to protect our boarders, not the boarders of Afghanistan and Pakistan, North and South Korea, Iraq and Iran. Nay-sayers might say "This foreign policy is dangerous." I say: HOW!? All of our troops on our own boarders? How is this dangerous...it sounds like the safest thing we could do!
Same-sex marriage, Abortion
This is where Ron Paul sold me his message. Personally I'm pro-choice, and pro-same-sex marriage. But here's the thing, why on Earth is same-sex marriage even an issue?! The Federal Government should not have ANY role in its citizens' personal lives. Period. End of story. This is an issue that should be left to the states. In other words, in some states it would be legal and in some states it would illegal. Fair and Square. He feels the same about abortion.
War on Drugs
This was also a selling point to me. I should point out that in '08, I voted for Barack Obama. But it was also during that '08 campaign that Ron Paul first got my attention. Since then I have done my own research. I re-registered to vote as a 'non-affiliated' voter. This year, I re-registered again as a republican, for the sole purpose of being able to vote for Ron Paul in my state's (Oregon) primary on May 15th.
Anyway, the war on drugs. Ron Paul has realized that the war on drugs has failed. There are better ways to go about this and throwing money at it hasn't helped, it's only made things worse. By ending drug prohibition, crime would actually go down. As a physician Paul believes in treating drug addiction as a medical problem, not as a criminal act.
Marijuana
Ron Paul favors the right of patients to use medical marijuana. Federal agents raiding medical marijuana dispenseries is unconstitutional. He also advocates growing industrial hemp. Farmers have demanded to grown industrial hemp for decades. Hemp is a viable replacement to timber. It's cheaper, grows quicker, and industrial hemp is not the same hemp that is smoked.

Ron Paul is the most appealing in 2012 race for White House






It cannot be ignored any longer.

Ron Paul is the most appealing contender in the GOP race for the White House.

His views are completely sane and relevant to the situation that our contry is currently in. A national debt that keeps getting worse by the minute, an endless war in Afghanistan, a proxy war in Pakistan, a cold war (for now) with Iran. We still have bases all over Germany, bases all over Japan, bases all over South Korea, bases all over the middle east. Ron Paul is an ideologically consistent, fiscally conservative, TRUE republican. Republicans used to be the anti-war party. Spreading ourselves too thing across the globe will only make us more vulerable to attack, and will only embolden the redical extremists. If we bring home every one of our troops we can than better protect our own boarders.

His performance in the CNN debate on thrusday night was flawless as usual. He stuck to his guns and as always made all the other candidates look childish. While Romney and Gingrich sparred over who benefitted the most from which bail out, Ron Paul kept it simple: "this subject doesn't really interest me...but the question does...the question is, what are we going to do about Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. It should have been auctioned off right after the crash came. It would have been cleansed by now." Perfect answer! The only answer.

So why on Earth would anyone vote against Ron Paul?

Here's another good one from Paul as he corners Newt and make him look like a total liar, this is from the end of the video that's posted on my previous blog post. "I want to make a quick comment, because Newt's mentioned this quite a few times about balancing the budget for four times. I went back and looked at the record. The budget was -- the national debt during those four years actually went up about a trillion dollars. What he's talking about is, he doesn't count the money he takes out of Social Security. So, Reagan nor you had a truly balanced budget because the national debt goes up, and that's what we pay the interest on. So I think you've stretched that a little bit more than you should have."

There ARE alternatives, do your own research. Don't vote for somone just because everyone else is voting for that person. Vote for who YOU believe in, otherwise what's the point?!

The GOP candidates debate Jan. 26th, 2012

Ron Paul's debate performance was amazing as usual. Her stuck to his guns on everything that was thrown at him. Here's a vid from CNN.com of Dr. Paul totally shutting Newt Gingrich down regarding Gingrich's claim of 'balancing the budget for four years'



BOOYAH!

Liberty or Death!

I must say that this election cycle has proven to be very dirty and rough...and we haven't even reached super Tuesday yet.

A of now, there are four candidates that remain in the race: former Governor of Massachusetts Mitt Romney, former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, Congressman Ron Paul of Texas, and former Senator from Pennsylvania Rick Santorum.

The one thing that sticks out to me in this election is how 'plastic' all the candidates are, with one glaring exception: Ron Paul.

Here's a man who served in the Air Force during Vietnam (the only candidate who's a veteran), who has been elected to congress 11 times, who is the most consistant candidate, and only candidate that doesn't sound rehersed. Ron Paul gives honest answers from his heart and mind, not memorized zingers that were re-approved by his election committee.

He does not take money from lobbyists. He is the only Republican candidate calling for an end to all foreign wars. He is the only one with a sound enough mind to drastically cut spending and bring all the troops home, thus, bulstering national defense. Bring the troops home and instead of protecting the boarders of Afghanistan or Iraq or South Korea, we should bring 'em home and protect our own boarders.

Ron Paul is the ONLY candidate that believes the government should have NO role in the personal lives of its citizens.

If you call Ron Paul an 'isolationist' then clearly you have no idea what the word mean, and you clearly have not done your research. Ron Paul is a non-interventionist. Meaning: not medling in the internal affairs of other sovereign nations, and not getting involved in entangling treaties. Calling Ron Paul an isolationist would be like calling your neighbor a hermit just because he doesn't come to your property and smash your windows.

People say that his foreign policy is dangerous. They're wrong. Getting the U.S. out of the affairs of other nations may even solve some big issues. Imagine if some other country, say Russia or China decided to try and push us around and influence us...we wouldn't like it, would we? So imagine us right now, influencing events in the middle east and pushing them around...

The sooner we leave, the better.

I was once a democrat. I jumped on the band wagon in 2008 and voted for Brarack Obama. Since then I, like many, have grown tired of the same old two parties that seem to never be able to get anything done in Washington. I registered as an 'unaffiliated' voter in 2010, and just last week registered as a republican for the sole purpose of voting for Ron Paul.
