Interesting how my picture has quotes and yours doesn't.
4/23/2012 6:56:51 PM
I'd quote the racist shit in his newsletter, but of course you'd say we're not allowed to quote things he regretted and later claimed not to endorse.
4/23/2012 7:05:20 PM
Again, if you're quoting something out of newsletters, he didn't write it. How about you quote something that Ron Paul actually says? -_-
4/23/2012 8:06:33 PM
i for one am shocked that geniusboy believes ronnie had nothing to do with those.
4/23/2012 8:24:29 PM
I don't know about you, but I regularly go around lending my name to shit I completely disagree with
4/23/2012 8:28:52 PM
Did Ron Paul have a helping hand in the Ron Paul video game?He must have since his name's on it
4/23/2012 8:35:15 PM
We have a court system for dealing with that.

Thanks for posting a video that explains that Ron Paul was in charge of the newsletter, put his name on it, and takes responsibility for the content.
4/23/2012 8:45:31 PM
You're welcome.Now can you admit he didn't write the articles?
4/23/2012 8:47:27 PM
I didn't say he wrote it

You're not comprehending anything at all.
4/23/2012 8:49:43 PM
You're about the only person in here that doesn't actually comprehend anything
4/23/2012 8:50:13 PM
That's interesting since you're running from every question and making excuses for your ignorance.
4/23/2012 8:51:25 PM
excuses for what?paul has lost about as badly as one can lose.
4/23/2012 8:53:10 PM
hahaha
4/23/2012 8:53:20 PM
Productive.
4/23/2012 8:53:43 PM
i mean we could thrash out all the intricacies involved in say, consuming rotten meat, and we could do a damn good job of covering all the bases!...but its still a piece of rotten meat and im not fucking eating it.

For someone that loves liberty, you don't seem to have a problem with a state telling people how to live. hmm, interesting.Let's trade one perceived ill with 50 more-incapable ones[Edited on April 23, 2012 at 9:04 PM. Reason : ]

oh yeah? whats that edit?
4/23/2012 9:07:22 PM
what's my post count?jazon, the answer you seek about states is in the constitution.
4/23/2012 9:09:58 PM
I'm well aware of what you're referring to, but apparently you aren't aware that constitutional scholars have been arguing over it since before the thing was ratified - and I'm also aware that the fed has maintained supremacy over the states for a solid 150 years.
4/23/2012 9:11:54 PM
Then what are you arguing about?
4/23/2012 9:13:13 PM
Just laughing about your idiocy
4/23/2012 9:14:08 PM
If the state fucks you over as the picture you posted suggests, then the federal government will step in and protect your liberty.The unconstitutional system we have today doesn't have a structure higher than the federal government to step in to protect our liberty from the federal government. The Constitution has been perverted into a different system of government and it's killing our freedom and the nation's integrity.
4/23/2012 9:17:19 PM
whoa whoaKeep the fed out of this. They have no business telling states what to do, rememberAnd we have the supreme court - checks and balances?[Edited on April 23, 2012 at 9:18 PM. Reason : ]
4/23/2012 9:18:09 PM
The fed can do everything the powers of the constitution clearly states it can do. Anything not stated in the constitution, the federal government cannot do.It's just that simple.
4/23/2012 9:20:21 PM
4/23/2012 9:21:44 PM
Not sure why you can't grasp the easiest idea in the world.
4/23/2012 9:22:24 PM
Because it's vague, you dummy.
4/23/2012 9:24:03 PM
I don't see any room for error in what I wrote. What part is vague?
4/23/2012 9:26:59 PM
The constitution. It is vague. That is why every one doesn't agree on the meaning.Is that easy enough for you to understand?
4/23/2012 9:27:59 PM
Jazon, how can you think that more power and decision making at local level is a bad thing?
4/23/2012 9:28:26 PM
ha, dont let into jazon.i dont think many people ITT are going to argue the fed needs anymore power; quite the opposite really.geniusboy wouldnt even be happy with the return of the goddamn CSA.
4/23/2012 9:30:07 PM
Depends on the types of decisionsStates may very well have great ideas; they are closer to the issues at hand, after all, but to grant them far reaching power is a mistake. If you think the fed is terrible, imagine what's going to happen when you give local politico's even more power. It'd be a nightmare. Of course, that's my opinion.I mean, look at the Amendment 1 shit. The first thing local governments would do is start creating laws that exclude people. (Government shouldn't be involved in marriage in the first fucking place)And I'm definitely not arguing that the fed needs more power. [Edited on April 23, 2012 at 9:35 PM. Reason : ]

So a bad piece of legislation at the federal level is better than a bad piece at the local level?At the local level you can have a more direct impact, and more likely to change things that affect the constituents. You also have the ability to move to an area that has legislation that you agree with; rather than leave the country.
4/23/2012 9:38:06 PM
The moving bit is a cop-outAnd I have no answer for the bad legislation bit. Bad is bad.
