Demonizing Ron Paul for doing his job

WASHINGTON — Rep. Ron Paul vehemently denounced the $410 billion catch-all spending bill approved last week by the House of Representatives. But although the libertarian-leaning Republican from Lake Jackson cast a vote against the massive spending measure, his fingerprints were on some of the earmarks that helped inflate its cost. … His earmarks included repair projects to the Galveston Seawall damaged by Hurricane Ike and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. This makes perfect sense to me. It’s not hypocritical at all, [...]

Damn It Campaign For Liberty!

I’d donate if I wasn’t locked into rich-status! Look at my options compared to hers (I donated a lot more to the campaign in 2007):

Campaign for Liberty with a sprinkle of democracy

As Tucker Carlson said during tonight’s opening, many libertarians differ on certain issues. And with Jesse Ventura announcing his possible 2012 run for president, I’d like to see an internet-powered survey of all the members of the Campaign for Liberty. Perhaps in the next four years, we can prepare a few candidates that represent our disjunct views on libertarian values. I would like to see a site evolve where I can put in my views on tens to hundreds of [...]

Cherry Creek News censors Ron Paul Results

Within ten minutes of posting that Ron Paul had 18% of the vote, Cherry Creek news removed all references to Ron Paul from its article. Also, it appears that their results for McCain went from 19% to 11% somehow. This is proven by the snippet found on Google News. Depending on Google News, this may or may not update there. Here is a screenshot of what Google News says: And here is a screenshot of the article: Contact them to [...]

Ron Paul is not a racist.

So, I keep seeing people posting comments around that say Ron Paul is a racist, and most of them refer to a 1992 mailing list post he allegedly wrote. This posting was controversial because it portrayed inner city Blacks in a bad light. It was protesting against the lack of police action against rioting, the Rodney King scandal, and inner city crime committed by Blacks. Now, I don’t think he was inferring that only Black people commit crime, or are [...]

Meetup group size for popular candidates

I saw a post on Digg that caught my eye, and thought that this might be another way to gauge the amount of hardcore supporters each popular candidate has. I picked the following: Ron Paul Dennis Kucinich Barack Obama Hillary Clinton Rudy Giuliani Mitt Romney Mike Huckabee Fred Thompson John Edwards Mike Gravel John McCain Now, you would think that the number of hardcore supporters should correlate nicely with the number of voters turning out in the primaries since one [...]

Republicans lose without Ron Paul

If you think about it, Ron Paul is very different from his fellow Republican nominees, and he currently has a fairly large following. Think down the road when the primary happens. If the Republican party doesn’t put Ron Paul in front, and instead picks Mitt Romney or Rudy Giuliani, all of the voters that like Ron Paul will write in Ron Paul on the final ballot, abstain from voting, etc. This will cause an imbalance of votes on the Republican [...]

Ron Paul Wins Again

Well, he’s done it again. More than 60% of voters in the ABC News poll believe that Ron Paul won the debate again. He also lost over 1000 votes when ABC reset its polls. Here are the rankings as of 7AM EDT Aug. 6th:

Fox News’ Dick Morris Lies!

In this Article, Dick Morris and Eileen McGann try to say that John McCain won the debate. Fox News totally lied about it. They’re a bunch of crooks. He didn’t according to thousands and thousands of polled viewers. Here is the screenshot: ABC admits the truth. Why can’t Fox News? Wow. Looks like we need a scientific poll with more media coverage than anything else including celebrities. How about this: a news network that doesn’t cover anything celebrities do unless [...]
