Ron Paul is a dingbat, that's why.

Marsha, I'm not sure why you gargle Romney's balls, but you seem to have an opinion of him that defies reality.

If he were to govern like he governed Massachusetts the first thing he'd have to do is re-flip-flop on every significant issue...and there's no way he'd be able to get away with it with the wingnuts and looney toons that are running the Republican Party now.

Fish on...

There's no way Romney won't be a failure.

He's a Republican.



It may be hard to classify it now. But it won't be should he get elected.

People like to say he's a dingbat.

I bet he wouldn't have the country 15 trillion in debt, engaged in multiple unjustified wars, and owned by corporate interests if he'd been dictator the last 30 years.

But yeah.............HE'S the dingbat.

Toddles.......

You have a lot of room to talk.......why are you so sold on Barry? What does he do for you? It's the D isn't it?

I have little faith that Ron Paul would be able to do a damn thing were he able to somehow up his chances from the four or five percent who like him now to a number high enough to actually make it on a ballot.

He's been in Congress for going on...24 years? Guess how many bills he's written that have been enacted into law.

One. That bill sold a historical landmark in Galveston.

His main attraction to the younger voters is that he seems to think that the Fed is illegal at best, and run by the Masons to create a one nation world bent on turning us all into the Borg at worst.

When guys like Lyndon LaRouche and Ralph Nader (other conspiracy theory dingbats) failed to ever make it on a ballot with an actual political party, they started their own, or joined some other one...maybe that's what Paul ought to do.

Maybe he and his son Rand (who somehow manages to make his old man look sane, he is a Dingbat with a capital "D") can run as President and Vice President for the Tea Party...were the Tea Party an actual party and not just the insane wing of the Republican Party.

Ron Paul also thinks we shouldn't have the Civil Rights Act, or most environmental laws, or really any laws at all. I appreciate the sentiment, but this is not a world where you can trust people to do anything that is good for anyone but themselves, so we need laws to protect the rest of us from those greedy bastards.

The one thing I can actually get behind Paul on is his stance on going to war, which is pretty much that we shouldn't be in Iraq, not by a long length...and even if Paul is a dingbat on everything else he ever advocates for, he'll always have my respect for that stance.

Todd

I'm well aware of his political career.

I'm also well aware of the current state of affairs.

Four years from now, you can tell me how well your guy has done.

When the best thing you can say about the guy you voted for is that there's no way in hell he'll ever get elected so it will never be my fault...well, let's just say it's not the most imaginative way to exercise your franchise.

Fish on...

Todd

But voting for a proven failure is?

Got me there, you did.

From Todd:"Marsha, I'm not sure why you gargle Romney's balls, but you seem to have an opinion of him that defies reality."

Translation: Marsha, I'm not sure why you gargle Romney's balls, but you seem to have an opinion of him that defies MY reality.

Well, yeah...my reality being that of the "reality-based" reality...the one that typically diverges greatly from right wing ideology.

Fish on...

Todd

Then there's this other reality where strange women throw lobsters away.

RP delegates are getting on the Romney bandwagon.

Cause there's not enough RWNJ's there already.




Fishy

The good news is we have a solid coalition of LWWJ's.........And there is plent here and there already.

It is to bad we do not have a party in this country that supports at least some of the things RP supports. He might be a little out there once in a while but he would be way better than either of our current choices.
