Have You Seen the Inspiring Ron Paul RNC Tribute Video?

Republican National Convention Runs Tribute Video for Ron Paul

The much anticipated tribute video for Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) at the Republican National Convention is sure to leave a lasting impression throughout the rest of the GOP convention, just as Paul has apparently left one during his 22 years in Congress. The video features big name Republicans praising the Texas congressman for standing up for conservative principles, including Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) and his son, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.).

“For those with dedication. Character. Faith and conviction. Sometimes that lonely path paves the way forward for millions,” says a narrator in the video. “Ron Paul. 22 years in Congress. He’s never voted for a tax increase. Never voted for a debt ceiling increase. Never wavered. Never backed down.”

“The role of government ought to be for the protection of liberty, not for the intrusion into our private lives,” Paul says. “I was surprised I ever won because I thought this message would not go well with the people.”

Paul’s wife says that her husband never thought he would get elected.

“When I first got to the House, I thought Ron Paul was nuts,” DeMint says. “But more and more I found myself voting with him.”

“Ron Paul is the only one I know who made a difference by making a point,” McConnell says.

Rand Paul said that Capitol Hill lobbyists don’t even bother with his dad because “they know he can’t be bought.”

“Ron Paul was Tea Party before there was a Tea Party,” said DeMint.

“Whether people want to admit it or not, Ron Paul changed the conversation,” McConnell concluded.

I would like to personally thank Justangry, Sotbom315 and the rest of the Dr. Paul supporters for their stalwart stick-to-it-ness in supporting their choice for POTUS. Thanks for the debates and conversations. I really learned a lot and I appreciate it and your kindness in answering my questions. (except for Brother Winston Smith who never said anything without yelling at me).

My hats off to you for being so nice and I hope to meet you in person one day. : )

  Ron Paul has started a movement that is not going to go away any time soon..Ron has left his mark on our political conscience ,,I never thought him 100% right just 95%…I wonder if any of the Paul haters even took the time to visit his website and read about his stand on the issues. It seems we are not yet ready to elect a constitutional conservative,who believes in peace instead of war. He may have been one of the only honest politicians we have in Washington…..

  I think this post just clinched my opinion, that you are an absolute idiot.
  
  Not the Alex Jones part, but the Lew Rockwell inclusion.
  
  Let me repeat, you an an absolute idiot. And, if the GOP and the Constitution fail – it will be at the blame of (let me repeat this again for clarity’s sake) absolute idiots like yourself.
  
  You are a utopian fanatic of your own design, and it appears to be on the order of DuLoc – all hail Lord Farquaad of DuLoc! aka Time 2.
  
  I actually recommend you go into a dark room, play McConnel’s parting remarks in the video above – then read the 2012 RNC platform – and replay Ron Paul’s debate statements over and over.
  
  Its gonna make you want to go out and torture a gingerbread man – I guarantee.

  LIBERTARIAN. Ohhhh come’on now, a Libertarian trying to cover for Lew Rockwell’s @ss (who’d a thunk it, lol) shows me nothing more than mere disingenuousness on your part. Anything else you write has to be ignored until you come to honest terms with the worst elements of the Libertarianism.
  
  Lew Rockwell is and has been an embarrassment to the Libertarian movement and you’re embarrassing yourself by speaking positively on his behalf. I can’t, and nobody should take you seriously until you come to grips with that basic fact.
  
  Come back when you can be honest. You are dismissed as a hack Libertarian. Rockwell is as morally bankrupt as is the diseased strain of Libertarianism he and Rothbard (thankfully dead) tried/trys to push on honest Americans, so I can only assume you must be too.

  What I find tragicly ironic about the lunatic fringe of the GOP, which Time-2 perfectly demonstrates, is how blatantly duplicitous they are – in all matters great and small.
  
  While they tout fiscal responsibility and economic truth – they trash Hayek, Rothbard, Friedman and anyone else that points out the complete failure of Keynesian economics. The complete assasination of Peter Schiff in the CT Senate race comes to mind. Instead the GOP gave us the wife of a WWF magnate?. I suppose that is the yankee equivalent of sending Larry the Cable guy’s momma to the Senate.
  
  While they would feign freedom and liberty – they champion the destruction of the same by trying to convince folks the NDAA is a “just” and “necessary” abridgement of the Bill of Rights. All 10 of them, in case anyone is counting.
  
  They construct a false history of grandiose triumph and try to pass it off as immutable truth in opposition to plain, researchable fact. The authors of the 1860 Republican platform must be rolling in their graves with torment each time the 2012 platform is enunciated. On matters of policy, the two platforms are as diametricly opposed as comparing Marx to Mises.
  
  There are lunatics roaming in every Party – they are identified by utopian sentiments like “I wish everybody could be like me – then we’d get along great!” and secretly bowing to the Fabian Socialist window with idolatrous ferver. Praying that they can create their own “perfection on earth”.

  Lew Rockwell must be the worst anti-Semite in history, since he runs the Mises Institute… L. von Mises having been a Jew and all…
  
  And it was proven that Rockwell did not write “the newsletters”, some middle-upper manager for Forbes did. And he was fired for it. It speaks volumes that Ron Paul didn’t throw him under the bus for it.

  Ron Paul himself isn’t anyone to be afraid of. It’s losing the support of the fiscal conservatives in the party that has the GOP terrified.
  
  Ironic, as I’d say extremists like you, so content to tear apart the party because you refuse to deal with the economic issues in our country, are infinitely more frightening. You’re a Democrat dressed as a conservative.

  Unfortunately you are wrong.. Glenn OWNS the blaze.. Ron didn’t own the newsletter, it was printed on his behalf.. There are website that have the RP name on them as well and Ron has nothing to do with them..
  BTW.. He was running for president and was on the ballot in all 50 states.. He was running and his supporters were not giving up.. He was being “libertarian” and letting them do what they wanted. That is how libertarian thinking works.. Whether he accepted the nomination (if he got it) is another..
  What I am satisfied with is the adoption of much of the RP platform into the GOP platform this year. The GOP tactics during the convention were deplorable.. I watched it on a private ustream feed from the floor.. Grass roots activism in the GOP is OVER!! unless the rules change.. Freedomworks is beside themselves.. I spoke with them on the phone yesterday.

For the most part it was the truth.. Most people here can’t handle the truth. Glenn has to digest it and regurgitate it so it speaks Neo-Christian-Conservative-Nazi so the blazers can understand it. The blaze is everything to do with oppression and totalitarian government and nothing to do with freedom.. They back the RNC and their totalitarian tactics.. I could go on for days..Glenn uses FEAR to scare you into the next new enemy of America so we can bomb them with public approval.. Total BS. He has been doing this for years..

Dear Blaze Readers.

You’ve lost. You don’t know it yet. Everyone who has insulted, will insult and will continue to write personal attacks, use words such as ‘stupid’, ‘idiot’, ‘racist’, etc, with nothing to offer than a witty statement to try and appear intelligent, well, you’ve lost.

You won’t feel it today. You won’t feel it next week, or even perhaps next month. Feel it you eventually will, and when everything you hold dear spirals so far out of control, you start screaming and blaming and finger pointing filled with vitriol, there’s only one place to go if you want to know who’s really guilty. A mirror.

No Democrat or Republican will pull America out of this downward spiral. Because you would rather finger point, insult, berate and cast blame elsewhere, you all failed to pull together to do the right thing. What that thing was, doesn’t matter anymore. It’s too late. You ALL lost.

And you deserve it.

For those of us stuck with their consequences, stock up on ammo, food, basic items for survival, not for motnhs at time. Try for years at a time. You’re going to need them soon, and nobody is going to share with you when you realize I’m not talking crazy. Oh, you may think I’m crazy talking now, and that’s just fine. Keep thinking that way. Your own “Hell no!” moment is on the horizon. When that awakening happens, you’ll either perish fast or perish slow.

Bye.

  Why are Ron Paul followers so extreme? “We didn’t win so stock up on ammo”. Really? You guys get so excited when you talk about the end of the world. Why don’t you do what I suggested yesterday…which is have your cult gather from across the country to worship “prophet” Paul then drinking strychnine-laced kool aid. That kind of thinking is what led Goebbels to feed his children cyanide pills, shoot his wife, then shoot himself.

  @V15, Paul or Johnson are the only ones who would/will address the issues that are the root causes of the problems. Their views on free-markets and a stable currency are the only way that we will even be able to think about being able to emerge from the coming depression.
  
  Why is there the doom and gloom? (Don’t forget, he hasn’t said anything that Glenn hasn’t been saying for years now) There’s doom and gloom because there are terrifying signs on the horizon that point to exactly that being what is in our future if DRASTIC changes don’t happen immediately.

  V15,
  
  I’m going to be real blunt. Mr Romney and Mr. Ryan are writing a big check that I hope their asses are big enough to cash. The RNC platform is pretty darn steep. Admittedly not steep enough on fiscal issues – but a drastic incline compared to the past 30 years of bullcrap ( from both sides ).
  
  If they don’t deliver. Its over. Its just that simple.
  
  Its pretty obvious the video is a ploy to garner my vote – and I likely will. But, that doesn’t mean it will be there in 2014 or 2016. In fact, if they don’t deliver on their platform noticably by 2014 – things will go very badly in the mid-terms. I’m not all that cozy with the strong-arming of Paul delegates at the convention. If Romney exhibits this type behavior as President, I’ll be just as adamantly opposed to his posterior as I am Obama right now. Count on it.
  
  This is the Republican’s moment. If they win, they still have to deliver. If they don’t deliver – the party will be extinct by 2016. They will be remembered, rightfully, as Whigs.
  
  So, back up your **** with results – or else. I may be regressing to my redneck roots – but that’s just how serious this is.
  
  And yeah, aside from my business – my largest investment is in Hornady ballistic tip bullets for all my guns. Great rounds, makes my .357 as long range as a 30-30 used to be – with more damage.

  V15,
  
  Good.- then we understand what we’re agreeing on.
  
  I want to clarify something. Ron Paul was burned by Reagan in the 80′s. Even though the scope of things may be different, I understand the basic situation. I suspect most of us do in some capacity. Ron isn’t endorsing Romney for the same reasons, and to be frank, is making his stand to keep the Romney promises honest. I understand that. Its not so much an affront to the RNC as much as it is a statement of “prove it”.
  
  I feel the exact same way. It really is time to “prove it” or go away.
  
  I sincerly hope that the modern incarnation of the Republican party “proves it”. I’m throwing down with them one last time, to give them the chance . An immensely important chance, as it may be the last for any of us. I really don’t like alot of what has gone on, but this is the last roundup on all accounts associated. We all know this, whether we like it or not.
  
  As someone who knows the responsibility to uphold both his word and a blessing – firsthand – all I can say to Romney is, “Don’t let us down, this chance won’t come again”.

  That really is a pretty honest analogy you posted.It sums up what I think a lot of Dr.Paul’s people on here are saying.
  You’ve admitted that Romney will barely slow this mess down and we’ll all end up in the same place we would with Obama at the wheel,(the bottom of the cliff). Then you further admit that Ron Paul would reverse course,but in the process,there would be damage done to “the transmission”.
  
  Just one question,wouldn’t it be a hell of a lot easier to fix a transmission,than to continue over the cliff and completely destroy the car beyond repair?
  I don’t know about you,but I don’t want to ride with anyone who would deliberately drive a car off a cliff.It also sounds a bit crazy in your analogy,that Mitt is going to “buckle up”,like he’s enjoying the ride.The only thing missing in your story is the maniacal laughter from him as the car plunges over the side.
  
  That sounds crazier than anything I’ve heard from the Ron Paul crowd!

  I think the analogy is still apt. Obama revs it and goes over the cliff. Romney taps it but still goes over the cliff. Ron Paul puts it in reverse, guns it, and destroys the transmission. It still doesn’t stop the car, and we go over the cliff, only the transmission blows out and frags everyone in the passenger compartment before they crater on the ground below.
  
  Three courses, death regardless.
  
  I have kept myself out of the Paul / Romney debate deliberately, mainly because I have known for some time that we are well past the point where it does not matter. Ron Paul, Romney, Obama, all window dressing of different colors on a department store about to be struck by a wrecking ball. Changing the curtains does not change the inevitable fate of the building.
  
  America is effectively Rome writ 2 millennia later. We have not learned from the history of the planet, mainly because history is no longer properly taught. We are self-destructing, whether you want to ignore it or not. All that remains is the final swing of the reaper’s scythe.
  
  For those of you who are prepared, I say you are never prepared enough. For those of you like me, who have not had much opportunity to get prepared, keep working on it. If Mitt wins, he delays the inevitable wipeout hopefully long enough for you to solidify your positions. For those of you who think this will never happen, good freaking luck and say hello to Darwin for me when you arrive.

  ________________________________________________________________________________
  
  Chances are very high.
  
  The further Obama slips in the polls – the higher the chances get. The more dialogue that goes on to actually bring this nation back to its core, Consitutional principles – the higher the chances get. The closer “The People” get to putting the Government back into its rusty cage – the higher the chances get.
  
  Sadly, the closer fanatical zealots from all sides of this debate (partiularly at the top) get to realizing there is no “Utopia” – the higher chances get.
  
  Its not going to take much to push the equation from theoretical to reality. The only unknown variable left is whether we have a “Reichstag” or a “Sumter” moment to usher in martial law and full Constitutional suspension. I earnestly hope neither happen, but I’m putting my bets on the “Reichstag” option.

  eh, most of the people on this message board are convinced of a coming armageddon. Though they aren’t excited. Thats why we see banner ads for bunkers, and emergency food kits. Obummer will be re-elected, and it won’t be the end of the world, we will survive it, try again in 2016. Thats all you can do.
  
  You can’t blame ron paul for being a good guy with real principals, and you can’t blame his supporters for backing him. But you can blame the GOP for handing us this soft, weak candidate in mitt romney.

My guess is that you have about 1-3% of each of those and claim the whole block, actually that’s not a guess, it’s the truth because if you had those all of those groups you’d win the election.

  I have enjoyed your comments and input for some time. I am surprised that they still let you post. As I know others get blacklisted for not conforming to the accepted group think pushed by T he B laze. As dissension is not really wanted here. I suspect we will need to find another place to battle out the ideas with others, or just keep creating new users, so one can fly under the radar, and be able to post.

  If the truth lives here, you (The b l a z e) should allow our post to go up immediately, and not hold them for 24hrs, or not post them at all. You must not have posted at least 10 of my posts to date, so I don’t frequent this website as much as I used to.

Thank God Ron Paul is given some credit for his LONG courageous, principled fight to steer our ship of state away from the iceberg. Paul will go down in history as a real hero, but unfortunately a hero not recognized by enough people in his own time. (That’s the definition of a prophet, isn’t it?)

  Ron Paul delegates were not allowed to perform their duty. The nominee was predetermined by the party insiders. The same insiders that hate the tea party movement as much as the progressives. That’s the message to Ron Paul and his supporters I received.

  I can’t take you people seriously when you say God commanded Ron Paul to go to Washington, D.C. or that he’s a prophet. You accuse Romney’s religion as being a cult yet you have pretty much formed a cult of your own – an anti-Semitic cult bent on isolating themselves from rational thought.

  Interesting how the GOP was able to solute Dr/Congressman Ron Paul as a leader ahead of his time who stands upon principle yet ….they blocked his delegates from voting on the floor, the media gave this honorable man 89 seconds in one so called debate. The GOP held a voice vote to change the rules of how delegates are assigned so that a similar event as Ron Paul’s success cannot take place again. Well to me this tribute smacks of a propaganda effort to control their linkage with Ron Paul.

  Yep a Hero alright who has sponsored 620 bills in 22 years, had 4 bills go to the floor and only 1 bill that was passed, not including 2012 since it is not over yet. Paul has 0.2% success rate and that makes him a Hero? The only thing he was successful at was getting his platform out, but beyond that, no so much. Being successful is doing more than just talking, it is getting the bills passed that you sponsored and getting other Congressmen and Women behind those bills to get them passed. Yes he got people to listen, but listening and talking does not get anything accomplished.

This is a eulogy. His own party killed him, and now they’re all standing around saying what a great man he was. He has been marginalized, insulted, shut up and kept away from the voting process. Last election they did a better job of shutting him up – this time he got way too close to being nominated, and they had to fix that.

Now that they have finally eliminated Ron Paul for good, they’re all nice and cozy with their “tribute.” If they think that this will “heal the rift” and bring the Paul camp into the Romney syndicate, they’re ******* in the wind. Time for a 3rd party to enter the fray, and for now, the Libertarian Party and Gary Johnson fit the bill. The Republicans just lost a huge voting bloc. I hope they’re happy.

Obama is looking for a few more kids as he’s losing them to Romney and the GOP this time around. Obama loves you guys…. just like in ’08 when you helped elect him

It wasn’t the actions of Bush, the debt, the spending, the poor approval ratings of the GOP, a horrendous candidate named John McCain, and a smooth talking Car-salesman telling everyone what they wanted to hear who had a complicit media behind him pushing to get him elected while vilifying the GOP candidate. No, it was really Ron Paul supporters that cost McCain that election…

  If Obama voters are driving the American train off a cliff, Romney voters are boarding the train and running down the aisle as fast as they can in the other direction, deluding themselves that they are actually going in another direction. They focus on Ron Paul as the enemy while the Republican party has ensured that only insiders will control delegates in the future. Time to focus on state and local elections – they will matter when the inevitable happens…

  Gary Johnson 2012.
  
  This is the year to launch a real 3rd party option.
  A non socialist option that is.
  An option that is true to our constitution.
  A return to a LIMITED government
  A return to State Rights.
  An option of a free society with real free markets and not the corporatism we have gotten from both sides of the isle.
  
  I donated to Gary Johnson’s campaign, and will do what I can to persuade other small government patriots not to waste their vote on the Democrat Mitt.
  
  This is the opportunity to get the 15% we need so that the Libertarian Party will have a permanent presence. By doing so we will send a message to the GOP, that they have moved too far to the left, and we will not accept Romney Care type legislation.
  
  We are Americans that like to be free. Our founders sacrificed everything so that we could reap the blessings we have today. And now like cowardly sheep we are supposed to accept a light socialist, as our leader. That would be like accepting Charles Manson over Jeffrey Dahmer, being that Charles Mason was better in comparison….. By doing so you are condoning the lesser evil.
  
  Mitt Romney is a weak kneed weather vane that has admitted he is a republican in name only. Obama’s blatant communist ways have motivated patriotic Americans to wake up, like no one could. We got a historic election in 2010 and will have one this year as well. We don’t need Mitt to lull them back to sleep, with the false hope that he will

I’m no longer a Republican because of what you’ve been doing. You act just as bad, if not worse, than the Progressives on the Left. Tyranny in any flavor is wrong and an enemy of Liberty.

This is the single most disingenuous and disgraceful thing you’ve ever done. Every single one of you who have been bashing Paul supporters and Libertarians, good luck getting anyone elected when you lose a large amount of your base because of your arrogance.

I’m going to go take a real stand for my rights.
  
  @Go2: Yeah I’m crapping on it. After the absolutely terrible and evil things the RNC has done over the past few months regarding the Paul campaign, this is them basically s****ing on everyone who supported him or believed in what he stood for in order to try and get them to compromise their beliefs and ethics to elect someone they can’t get behind. They were trying to use his legacy while marginalizing his message.
  
  The GOP has shown its true colors, it is just as Progressive and evil as the left. I’m sorry none of you are willing to see it. I wish I could remove the blinders for you. I really do wish I could, but you’re too concentrated on this election to see the trap laid for you. This is how Liberty dies.

You have no Ethical or Moral soapbox to stand on and should know better than try to look down on others from the highway of good intentions to hell you have been sliding down with every party line vote you have ever made.

  @Indi, what I cannot stand is someone, like you, who constantly bashes a religion that you know nothing about except for what you hear. Have you ever been to a Mormon Church? Have you ever met a person who is a Mormon? It is pretty obvious that you haven’t because if you did you just might have a better understanding of the Church. I have read the many comments you have posted bashing Romney’s Religion and everything you write is nothing but lies and false accusations. When you bash someones religion then all it does is opens the door for others to attack you on your ignorance. You have the right to not like a certain Religion but we expect you to also be tolerant of other peoples Religious choice. If your best friend chose to become a Mormon, would you stop being his friend because of their choice? Would you bash them for their choice, or would you choose to stay friends and be tolerant of their choice?
  I personally take offense to your rants, raves and false accusation of my Religion and will pray that someday you can learn to be more tolerant of a Religion you disagree with. Just remember, just because we may practice a Religion you may not personally like, does not make us bad people because I am sure that there are many Ron Paul Supporters who are Mormons.

Blow me some smoke. What a slap in the face after what the RNC did to deny the ability of the duly elected Ron Paul delegates to cast their vote. Not to mention the dictatorial new rules they passed. I wonder if the Ron Paul delegates relegated to the nose bleed section will even be able to see the screen.

Tribute? The establishment has fought Ron Paul and voted against every one of his bills that protect our freedoms. One of the only exceptions was the Audit the Fed bill which he tried to bring up numerous times before as he has been talking about the fed and money manipulation for 20+ years or more. They only voted for it this time because they all knew the bill would go nowhere in the Senate. Plus the republicans needed to look tough for the upcoming election. Talk about a dog and pony show.

All this is, is an attempt by the RNC and the establishment candidates to pull the libertarian and Ron Paul voters to vote for Romney. Sorry, those with eyes can see.

  The Tea Party came about as a result of the Republicans screwing us over when they had control of all three houses from ’02 – ’06, a Congress that’s been screwing us for forever and then a man elected in ’08 who decided to sell the farm. That’s how the Tea Party came about. Not because of that flake from Texas.

  I think Time_2_Lie just gave a glimpse of the real reason he has so much obsessive hatred for Ron Paul.
  When Paul talks about how the post WWII wars we were involved in were unconstitutional (which is true because only Congress has the power to declare war-and that didn’t happen in any case since WWII), and when Paul talks about how wars of aggression are contrary to the Christian Just War Doctrine (which is also true), and when Paul believes that we should follow the foreign policy of our Founding Fathers (who warned against entangling alliances), Time_2_Lie seems to take these as personal insults to him. As if Paul has said that Time_2_Lie is not really a constitutional conservative, and not such a good Christian. Relax Time_2_Lie, even though everything Paul said is true, I’m sure he didn’t mean anything personal towards you. I think what you hate most about him is that he is right.

  COUSCOUS. I we listen to Ron Paul and if certain the wars were truly illegal, it would follow that our Veterans who prosecuted them must be criminals because American soldiers are duty bound under the military’s Uniform Code of Military Justice to refuse to carry out any illegal order. Moreover, not only would the aiding of the prosecution of an “illegal war” itself be illegal, it would be a clear violation of the solemn oath taken by every Military Service member. That oath requires them to uphold the Constitution and to follow lawful orders. Engaging in illegal wars would violate both precepts. So, Paul implies that every Veteran, because of their Service in certain wars, has violated the law… and broken their word of honor.
  
  The attempts by Ron Paul to build his political power base by criticizing the wars may be good politics if you’re isolationist pandering to the anti-war/anti-Military crowd. But doing so by erroneously calling certain wars illegal is an attempt to build that base at the expense of the honor of our troops. That is wrong. Our veterans are neither criminals nor dishonorable for having served…. having fought.
  
  Let me be clear COUSCOUS. Paul is not just making a claim that certain wars were ill advised. Time after time Paul has demanded an end to the “illegal” wars. He believes the wars are illegal because the Congressional authorization for them did not actually say “declaration of war.” His argument is historically and factually w

  Yeah, I wasn’t on the ground, and admire the heck at of all that were, but I was in the BEST hornet squadron of Desert Storm. I’m not claiming to be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I believe I have decent head on my shoulders, and I’ve never once thought Ron Paul said anything insulting about me. He’s only criticized the policy makers, and they’re certainly not combat veterans aside from halfway intelligent Bush.

  Time_2_Lie,
  
  You ran out of space in your last post but I think you were about to write that Pauls argument is historically and factually (wrong?). I disagree. The Constitution is explicit in that Congress has the power of declaring war. Like so many other clauses in the Constitution, politicians interpret these clear limits in whatever way they want to. Paul follows the Constitution to the letter. I find that a credit and not a fault. I also disagree that Paul or any other anti-war Christian places blame or any other negative connotation on the troops. It is the big-government politicans with their deceptive agenda and misleading propaganda that are fully in the wrong and fully in Pauls sight picture. Even though it drives you crazy, it is a fact that Paul has a huge following among active and retired military. Your diparaging of Pauls military service and of the service of the veterans who support him is the real disgrace. The fact that you consider yourself the greatest soldier since Audie Murphy and all of Pauls military supporters as s***bird deserters shows whose honor is really lacking.

  COUSCOUS. My last comment didn’t post to you last night and I’m not about to try and re-post. Obviously there is a word combination that won’t allow it. I had this same problem when I was posting to JUST ANGRY months ago regarding the same topic. I will take a stab at it at some other point.
  
  I had a hand in Chaptering out a boat load of what are probably yesterday’s John Kerry Military supporters and today’s Ron Paul Military supporters from my United States Army over the years. I have a feeling BADDOGGY (who we haven’t seen in quite awhile) may have been the first reject to get the boot at my insistance for his insubordination and lack of Military bearing…
  
  I did my part to identify and help get rid of the ash and trash in my United Staes Army and I’m doing my best as a civilian in identifying the ash and trash that American politics needs to rid itself of for the betterment of our nation as a “collective” whole…

  Time2, I forget the legal term, but Ron Paul would only be criticizing military folks serving in
  ‘illegal wars” if he actually believed that they actually knew that the wars were illegal. Which they don’t. They’re serving their country more admirably than any other group. He knows this, I know it and all the folks in the military that contributed to his campaign in record numbers knows it. Besides all he’s referring to is the policy makers not following the proper procedures in declaring war in the congress. I mean dislike him all you want, but you’re thin skinned if you think he was referring to you doing anything illegal by serving your country. He’s the only politician that actually cares about us and it’s sad you don’t see it. And there’s not one veteran on here that doesn’t think I care about our brothers even if they disagree with my support for the liberty movement. I don’t want our brothers to go through some of the stuff I’ve been through if it’s not for a legitimate purpose. I don’t want their families to suffer unless it’s to preserve our national security or preserve our freedom. I don’t want them to used by bankers, oil barrens, and military industrial complex to make them rich. I am not anti-military and wouldn’t have supported anyone I thought was. (like Romney and Obama)

  There was no spin. Ron Paul endorsed only one person after he dropped out of the race in 2008 – Chuck Baldwin. Anyone can research and find that what I posted was exactly true. The only dishonesty is on your part as you repeatedly say that Paul endorsed McKinney when you know it never happened. You are so childish in your insults, so blatant in your lies, and so completely devoid of integrity, if there is any truth to your claims of being a veteran, you are a disgrace, an insult, and an embarassment to those who served with honor and became real men as a result. Obviously your result was different.

  If you measure success in Congress as passing as much new legislation as possible, then you’re right Ron Paul accomplished nothing. But I personally think that fighting tooth and nail for 22 years to try to make those corrupt criminals keep their oath to uphold the Constitution and to stop them from wasting all of our tax money while they continually take more and more from us, (while he himself never once voted for a tax increase, or voted to raise Congressional salaries, or voted to raise the debt ceiling, or participated in the Congressional Pension Plan), was worthwhile (even though he was destined to fail in those efforts) because he shines as an example of dignity and integrity in the most adverse conditions. Clearly you can’t comprehend integrity.

  Hi Resme,
  
  Excellent! Sometimes it depends upon the original format of the photo/picture.
  
  Well, we had rain on and off all day for about 50% of the day. It would rain and the protesters would try to hide and find cover. Then the Sun would come out and many got fed up and left. This happened over and over all day. Between all the Police and the weather, most protesters left and downtown Tampa was almost completely deserted of protesters. I did here that 3 Black Bloc people were arrested today (don’t know why yet} and one was arrested yesterday for not taking off his mask when asked by Police. (That’s illegal here as well as most places). Only 4 arrests that I’m aware of so far.
  
  I did hear that the NBPP is going to protest tomorrow. Boy will they be surprised. No other protesters and only the NBPP for the Police to concentrate on.
  
  Hope all is well with you!

He is solid on fiscal and constitutional matters but a clueless doofus on foreign affairs – like a modern Neville Chamberlain. His associates like Lew Rockwell and Tom Woods are borderline anarchists.

I am surprised that Glen would allow anything nice about Ron Paul to be put on The Blaze.

  I am not surprised that Glenn would allow it but I am surprised that his buddy Pat let it get on here. Pat is probably beating his head on the desk. The way he acts about Ron Paul has made me turn them off more than once. I myself would love to see a President Ron Paul but I have to live in reality. This country is not ready for the return to the constitution. There are now nearly as many living off the government(read the taxpayers) as there are actual taxpayers. We are more likely to go the way of Dear Leader Chairman Maobama and his merry band of ***** commies. Such a sad state of affairs.

  Why? Glenn often spoke highly of Ron Paul, he just didn’t agree with his views on foreign affairs.
  
  BTW – Glenn Beck doesn’t edit The Blaze. http://www.theblaze.com/about/
