‘The One We’ve Been Looking For’: See Ron Paul’s Epic New Ad

Mitt Romney may be surging in the Iowa polls, but Ron Paul isn’t about to roll over and give up. Take, for example, his new political ad — an epic spot attacking Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney complete with a rousing voice over and an almost messianic tag line: “the one we’ve been looking for.”
“Serial hypocrites and flip-floppers can’t clean up the mess,” the deep-voiced narrator says, as pictures of Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney flash across the screen. “One man stands alone … consistent, incorruptible, guided by faith and principle — Ron Paul, the one we’ve been looking for.”
Have a look:
“While Paul has been in Congress since the 1970s, he can plausibly argue that he never embraced the culture,” the Washington Post writes. “As David A. Farenthold wrote this week, Paul tends to propose bold legislation that never makes it to a floor vote, and he’s never shown interest in lobbying behind the scenes to get it there. ”
We’ll see next week if it pays off.

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 1:59pmIf Ron Paul would only denounce Sharia Law as being used in the USA, then I would wholeheartedly support him. I am leaning towards him bc I believe he is the ONLY candidate who will actually CUT GOVERNMENT and bring some fiscal sanity back to DC. I have no fear of his foreign policy… I actually believe the USA military HAS become to large a force and that the USA needs to reign in her influence. We are becoming Rome…and we cannot support empire building that comes with that. It IS quite possible that the Iran issue is being stirred up by our presence there. The Israelis and the Saudis can and would be able to handle them.
However, my main concern with RP is that he may not understand the Muslim threat to this country. If he were to denounce using any Sharia Law in the USA, I would support him totally and even send him some money.

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 1:59pmOne of you Paul guys explain to me what happens when we step off the world stage. (No talking about what I think in your answer or what policies we follow now is not an answer) If this was 1900 ever last one of Paul’s polices would make sense and all would work but it is not 1900 we are where we are. For hundred years or so we placed a target on ourselves by being a rather strange beacon of freedom to the world. (Yes we do screwed up things and make others hate us) He is not offering a time machine to fix these things though, he is saying we will withdraw and strengthen our military where no one in their right mind would screw with us, but as it stands now no one in their right mind should screw with us but yet they still do. So we withdraw, cause a vacuum, someone steps up to take our place, wars break out all over where they haven’t up till now cause we said we would step in, the global economy that we set up so as not to have anymore world wars crumbles. Unless we get rid of minimum wage, regulations, law suits, there is no way to have an independent economy here, while it would be fun to think about unless we have 400 Paul‘s in congress that isn’t going to happen. So Paul guys have yall thought any of this through.

Many Christians who have fallen for Ron Paul’s carefully crafted words, often continue to support him because he loves to quote scripture and founders of our nation. For those with discernment, it is clear that he is constantly selectively quoting The Word of God out of context to try to persuade those who cannot see through his games. When called on his views, he will change the subject to try to make it sound like he is for State’s rights and the constitution and carefully avoids where his radical immoral views lead him.
Now a recording of Ron Paul regarding his homosexual dilemma has loving followers of Christ abandoning his campaign. While Anthony Weiner can send out x-rated pornographic photographs of himself to girls of all ages via his twitter mobile and still keep 53% of his democratic party voters still in his camp, Ron Paul does not have such a luxury, since he touts himself as a “conservative Christian”.

Yes, I have noticed and it reminds me of the people who were deceived and voted for Obama. Very sad they are deceived again. All this talk about the Constitution won‘t mean a thing when our country is in turmoil because he doesn’t understand Iran’s agenda, the Middle East’s agenda, and he also stands against Israel. People are so eager to get Paul in but are totally blinded to the fact God will not look kindly on our Nation if we turn away from Israel. Paul may win Iowa but he won’t win the general election and unfortunately he may give the election back to Obama.

To bad you missed the point about Paul’s views on homosexuality. The point is smart Christians don’t want anything to do with wolves in sheeps clothing. It begs the question, “what else has Paul said or done to sucker Christians into voting for him, when he clearly does not hold to basic Christian doctrine?”
Report Post »If Christians are voting for Paul in part because he claims to be a Christian, then they deserve to know the truth about what he believes. And frankly, I don’t know any Christians that want anything to do with someone who plainly states that God is wrong about homosexuality. God is not wrong about anything!!!
Couple this info with the fact that I’ve heard alot of Paulistinians complaining about Christians and Christians wanting a “theocracy” because we hold to the judeo-christian values and intent of our founders.
Many Paulistinians, think they have been living under a “theocracy” and don’t like it one bit. For all those delusional Paulistinians that beat people over the head with the Constitution and want the legalization of drugs and prostitution, I defer to what John Adams said in a speech to the military, on Oct. 13, 1798, about gays in the military.
” Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

I think he understands the threat of Radical Islam or at least their end goal, but also at the same time the CIA term called Blowback where our Foreign Policy (not the American Citizen) at least exacerbates the situation.
You have no fear of Paul and Shariah Law. Ron Paul takes the Oath to the Constitution very seriously and therefore would never support a theocracy style government that Shariah Law would impose. His Oath as a Congressman and member of the Air Force affirms that.
Ron Paul supports States Rights and I firmly believe that he would support Oklahoma in their endevour to establish that Shariah Law is not acceptable there (course with the US and Oklahoma Constitutions it should be a moot point….however, judges these days!)
Ron Paul most definitely understands that our Constitution has its roots in Judea-Christian values (while not being a theocracy) and he himself is a man of Christian Faith. I don’t doubt the other candidates faith…but Newt leaves me with some questions maybe not in the larger picture, but himself personally….however Paul actually has a page on his site called Statement of Faith
http://www.ronpaul2012.com/the-issues/statement-of-faith/

Of the 620 measures that Paul has sponsored, just four have made it to a vote on the House floor. Only that one has been signed into law.
House colleagues say the genial Paul has often shown little interest in the laborious one-on-one lobbying required to build a coalition behind his ideas. This year, for instance, Paul has sponsored 47 bills, including measures to withdraw from the United Nations, repeal the federal law banning guns in school zones and let private groups coin their own money.
None has moved, and 32 have failed to attract a single co-sponsor.

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 4:56pmRational, I watched the Paul interview that you posted and I can tell you that his views has nothing to do with him being a conservative christian or not. He is a conservative christian and practices his faith the right way. By your standards, you would say that individual liberty is good for everyone unless you are homosexual. That’s just horse pucky. He is a Constitutionalist who believe in the individual and not grouping people into a collective which cause discrimination. Discrimination is wrong no matter how you look at it. I do not like the idea of homosexuality, but I would not try to take away any persons liberty just because I do not agree with their sexual preference and I am a Christian, married to the same woman for 30 years.

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 4:59pmHouse colleagues say the genial Paul has often shown little interest in the laborious one-on-one lobbying required to build a coalition behind his ideas. This year, for instance, Paul has sponsored 47 bills, including measures to withdraw from the United Nations, repeal the federal law banning guns in school zones and let private groups coin their own money.
None has moved, and 32 have failed to attract a single co-sponsor.

Paul argues that if the United States cares about Israel, the U.S. should allow them to be more independent. He states that “the surrounding Arab nations get seven times as much aid as Israel gets and a recent shows that for every dollar you give to an Arab nation it prompts Israel to spend 1.4 dollars.” Paul would NOT stop Israel from defending its interests in any way it saw fit.

Q. The RJC characterized your views on Israel as “misguided and extreme”. Why do you think they view your views in that way?
Paul: I do not know, as I am the one candidate who would respect Israel’s sovereignty and not try to dictate to her about how she should deal with her neighbors. I supported Israel’s right to attack the Iraqi nuclear reactor in the 1980s, and I opposed President Obama’s attempt to dictate Israel’s borders this year.
Q. Do you think that the American debate on Israel is stifled?
Paul: There is no question that the problems of the Middle East have been intractable and may take new solutions and ideas. These ideas should all be openly discussed. I believe that my opinions have been distorted by those who want to continue America’s current role as world policeman, which we don’t have the money or manpower to sustain.

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 5:06pmThe man is your last hope of maintaining the Constitutional Republic which has been transformed into the United States of America, Inc. Ignore Dr. Paul at the peril of your own liberty.
The progressives have laid out the framework for the collapse to lead to a new global structure of economy and government. Call is socialism, call it state capitalism, Marxism, Maoist, communist; whatever the label it will lead to the fascist plutocracy that has been desired for over a century. They crept so slowly, we hardly noticed. It’s sad that we allowed them to abrogate so many of our liberties with hardly a whimper, but only noticed the massive changes because of money. Do you realize that it’s expected by Friday, the President will ask for a $1.2 trillion extension of the debt ceiling? Haven’t seen that on the Blaze, must not be real.
Almost all of us have unwittingly been a part of our own destruction. There is one man who has told you this day of reckoning was inevitable because of our financial, domestic and foreign policies. He has been ignored and maligned as a nutty, racist, truther, antisemitic kook, yet his career and consistency paint an altogether different picture. Still you ignore his true message, not because of the name calling, but because of fear. You’ve been told this was all coming but wished it onto a future generation. I hate that Dr. Paul’s message is so upsetting, but he’s been saying the same thing for over 30 years.

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 5:07pmQ. Do you support completely cutting all foreign aid, including the aid to Israel?
Paul: Yes, I am personally against all foreign aid. We give $3 billion to Israel and $12 billion to her avowed enemies. How does that help Israel? And in return, we act like her master and demand veto power over her foreign policy.
Report Post »If I were President, such aid would not end until the Congress agreed and voted for it to end, because I would be President as the U.S. Constitution defines it. I am not running for dictator.
But I believe that federal foreign aid is absurd. We’re broke! We are like a man who used to be rich and is in the habit of paying for everybody’s meals and announces at a lavish dinner that he will pay the bill, only to then turn to the fellow sitting nearby and say, “Can I use your credit card? I will pay you back.” It is ridiculous for us to be borrowing money from China and giving it to Pakistan.
I have described foreign aid as taking money from poor people in rich countries and giving it to rich people in poor countries. I know that many in other nations are hurting, but I also know that the American people are a generous people. While we should end the unconstitutional federal foreign aid program, I would encourage Americans to continue to voluntarily contribute to the needs of other nations.

Pay special attention to all the B.S. departments that fall directly under the executive branch of government. Ron Paul can, and probably will eliminate most of these ABC agencies with the simple swipe of a pen. Lets not forget that the single most important thing to remember about this election, is that it is about the economy, etc. Remember all the bailouts? The trillions in debt? Remember the issues that caused the Tea Party rise up and “shellac” the Democrats just 1 short year ago? You see, the MSM and the establishment want to re-write the issues and divert your attention to their narrative such as Iran and Israel.

There was already global trade before us, so that’s not an issue.
The part that the Marxists in our country have contributed to global trade is actually the thing that‘s destroying everyone’s economy. Fiat money is DESIGNED to steal wealth from the people. Our fiat money is the world reserve currency, but it shouldn’t be – NO fiat money should be; And we shouldn’t be using a fiat currency.
As for creating vaccuums, Obama and his Marxist 60s radicals are the ones who stirred up trouble in the form of the Arab Spring (it was NOT spontaneous), and it was Obama who violated the Constitution to start a war in Libya and deliberately side with the Muslim radicals.
Further, not only were we the ones who started trouble in Iran in 1953, but we also stuck our noses where it didn’t belong in WWI, AND FDR actually PROVOKED the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Our military interventionism is not Constitutional, not Conservative, is not consistent with what our Founders intended; it IS a Progressive foreign policy, and wasn’t originally part of the Republican party platform.
Our only hope is to end the Fed, have a commodity money economy, stop military interventions, and free the market. This is the only way we‘ll stop the collapse that’s coming.

A religious sect may degenerate into a political faction in a part of the Confederacy; but the variety of sects dispersed over the entire face of it must secure the national councils against any danger from that source.”

Ron Paul’s position is that countries can build whatever the hell they want within their own borders. You wouldn’t like it if non-Americans told us what to build.

He submits and sponsors legislation and votes against it, even if he knows it is unpopular when it is submitted. That way he can show that he voted against the bill. All people remember is that he voted against te bill. no that e cosponored or submitted it. Paul is a Libritarian, but could only win in his district if he was a Republican, so he changed.

Report Post »“Re: drugs, porn, prostitution
The Republican National Committee pulled a dirty trick on Paul. According to the Times, Paul was running for Congress against fellow Republican Greg Laughlin, whom he eventually defeated in a runoff. During the campaign, an Austin marketing company called people and asked respondents who favored Paul if they would still support him knowing that he was in favor of legalizing drugs, pornography and prostitution. The real truth, the Times noted, was this: “Dr. Paul said he only favored repeal of Federal laws on drugs, pornography and prostitution, leaving states to prohibit them.”"

“The Constitution does make mention of the military and national defense.”
Both of which Ron Paul supports dearly. It’s the idea of military OFFENSE (POLICING THE WORLD) that he staunchly opposes. You must have spent way too much time watching the Fox “News” Channel if you‘re thinking that Ron Paul’s against the idea of maintaining a national defense.
“And the non-interventionalist ideology? Was all well and good when George Washington gave his farewell address in the 1790′s. But two VERY big events changed the United States forever in this regard…December 7, 1941 and September 11, 2001.”
You are right in that those two events did change the United States forever in regards to how “safe” it was from attacks coming from foreign countries. But that still doesn’t change the fact that the President had to seek approval from Congress before he could declare war on the country that launched the attack. Preventative warfare and interferance other countries’ political affairs will only cause more countries to exercise justifiable hatred toward the U.S. Therefore, George Washington’s Farewell Address concerning non-interventionalism still stands to this very moment.

Every patriotic Citizen of the United States of America will back him. Freedom has a way of getting to people. They will want that more than the handouts. That is why his message is dangerous to the current mindset. Balking against it has happened before, when the founders set forth the Declaration of Independence (which by the way you can count the greivances they had and you will see most of them today) those who were afraid of what the Crown would do and so suppported it still had the same objections as yall.

“World War I was not our war. In a memo written at the end of World War II, Churchill wrote:
“This war should never have come unless, under American and modernizing pressure, we had driven the Habsburgs out of Austria and the Hohenzollerns out of Germany. By making these vacuums we gave the opening for the Hitlerite monster to crawl out of its sewer onto the vacant thrones. No doubt these views are very unfashionable.”

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 2:06pmSee these objections are easy to explain.
1) Romney was right to say his individual mandate was a conservative principle, not just was it supported by the Heritage Foundation and Gingrich but their original mandate was “You pay for your insurance, or you pay your own bill.” (as was written on Heritage’s website “Mitts Fit” days after the original bill was written that way). That is the mandate we need, complete personal responsibility, stop relying on the government to pick up your bill. Sadly the medicaid office and Mass legislature would not pass it.
2) Romney cut more government waste than Scott Walker, Sarah Palin, and Chris Christie combined. Turning a $3 billion deficit into a $2 billion rainy day fund.
3) He dissolved two whole state departments, merged some, and deregulated many industries in the state. Fighting for tax cuts in every avenue. Cutting them 19 times and proposing dozens more, which were shot down.
4) Rejected the regional cap and trade initiative that spread through the Northwest, because as he said Global Warming was not a sure thing and the initiative would kill business.

. Many people of various religious backgrounds seem determined to portray what is happening in the Middle East as some kind of historic/religious struggle, where one side is pre-ordained to triumph and destroy the other. Even some in this body have embraced this notion. Surely the religious component that some interject into the conflict rouses emotions and adds fuel to the fire. But this is dangerous thinking. Far from a great holy war, the Middle East conflict is largely about what most wars are about: a struggle for land and resources in a part of the world where both are scarce. We must think and act rationally, with this fact clearly in mind.

7/26/2001
Sanctions simply hurt American industries, particularly agriculture. Every market we close to our nation’s farmers is a market exploited by foreign farmers. China, Russia, the middle east, North Korea, and Cuba all represent huge markets for our farm products, yet many in Congress favor current or proposed trade restrictions that prevent our farmers from selling to the billions of people in.

Israel is a member of NATO. Israel doesn’t need our help. They HAVE nukes and their delivery system is light years ahead of Iran who only has the capability to make weapons grade plutonium… allegedly…and zero delivery system.
We have their backs if they are attacked, even if they can turn Iran into glass parking lot without our help. Let them solve their own political problems. We have enough of our own.

Yes, I heard that comment Paul made about Bachmann.
That was freeking stupid and it’s a lie. I live in MN and I absolutely LOVE Bachmann, I have no problem with her as POTUS. She is my second choice hands down. My only problem with Bachmann, is she wants to attack Iran as to do the rest of the neocon feild. That’s why Paul goes to the top of my list, Bachmann second. I’m certain they have fought in congress over this issue, and she has probably gotten under Ron’s skin more than once on this issue. His remark was uncalled for and he should apologize.
That being said, Bachmann is out of the race. She failed to get enough support to be on the ballot in Virginia and New Hampshire. She is toast but doesn’t know it yet. A zombie candidate if you will. Her campaign is broke and her donorship has dried up. Too bad.

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 5:51pm@Saw: I don’t think disagreement automatically makes someone a prog, but supporting a candidate who is clearly a prog (D or R) means that you are being manipulated by the overall prog agenda. I personally don’t think Bachman or Santorum should be considered progs, but their agendas would be hijacked by progs almost immediately. Mitt and Newt are pretty transparent about their prog tendencies. Then there’s Ron Paul… I label him as a Jeffersonian Republican or Constitutionalist. In essence a Paul administration would not allow the “progression” of the federal government and would begin to turn back a century of abuses and usurpation.
Serious question, who’s the single guy in this race who has told the American people for 30 years that what is happening with our economy right now, was coming? Ron Paul hasn’t been crazy all these years, but we (the Amercan people) have been.
Just a reminder because I haven’t seen it on the Blaze, before the end of the week expect the President to ask for a $1.2 trillion increase on the debt ceiling.

Unfortunately, we will get another Democrat like Newt, Romeny, Perry running for the GOP ticket again and Obama will be re-elected once people find out there is no difference, might as well vote for the status quo.
If one of the DFL’rs wins the GOP ticket, I will vote for Obama in the hopes this country is finally destroyed and we can get on with the collapse and aftermath that is coming anyway with a GOP establishment and MSM pick.

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 1:26pm@symphonic
Everything Christians do should be based upon the Biblical text. Here are seven solid Bible
Report Post »reasons why Christians should support Israel.
1. Genesis 12:3 “And I will bless them that bless thee and curse him that curseth thee; and
in thee shall all nations of the earth be blessed.” Point: God has promised to bless the man
or nation that blesses the Chosen People. History has proven beyond reasonable doubt
that the nations that have blessed the Jewish people have had the blessing of God; the
nations that have cursed the Jewish people have experienced the curse of God.
2. St. Paul recorded in Romans 15:27 “For if the Gentiles have shared in their (the Jews)
spiritual things, they are indebted to minister to them also in material things.”
Christians owe a debt of eternal gratitude to the Jewish people for their contributions
that gave birth to the Christian faith. Jesus Christ, a prominent Rabbi from Nazareth said,
“Salvation is of the Jews!” (St. John 4:22) consider what the Jewish people have given to
Christianity:
a) The Sacred Scripture
b) The Prophets
c) The Patriarchs
d) Mary, Joseph, and Jesus Christ of Nazareth
e) The Twelve Disciples
f) The Apostles
It is not possible to say, “I am a Christian” and not love the Jewish people. The Bible
teaches that love is not what you say, but what you do. (1 John 3:18) “A bell is not a bell
until you ring it, a song is not a song until you sing it, love is not love until you share it.”

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 1:28pm6. Why did God the Father select the house of Cornelius in Caesarea (Acts Chapter 10) to
Report Post »be the first Gentile house in Israel to receive the Gospel? The answer is given repeatedly
in Acts 10. Acts 10:2 “a devout man, (Cornelius) and one that feared God with all his
house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God always.” Who were the
people to whom Cornelius gave these alms? They were the Jews!
Again is Acts 10:4 “… thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before
God.”
Again in Acts 10:31 “… and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.”
The point is made three times in the same chapter. A godly Gentile who expressed his
unconditional love for the Jewish people in a practical manner was divinely selected by
heaven to be the first Gentile house to receive the Gospel and the first to receive the
outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
These combined Scriptures verify that PROSPERITY (Genesis 12:3 and Psalm 122:6),
HEALING (Luke 7:1-5) and the OUTPOURING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT came first to
Gentiles that blessed the Jewish people and the nation of Israel in a practical manner.
7. We support Israel because all other nations were created by an act of men, but Israel was
created by an act of God! The Royal Land Grant that was given to Abraham and his seed
through Isaac and Jacob with an everlasting and unconditional covenant.
(Genesis 12:1-3, 13:14-18, 15:1-21, 17:4-8, 22:15-18, 26:1-5 and Psalm 89:28-37.)

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 1:32pmHe is not against God’s word. Apparently you are and your biblical knowledge is lacking as is your political disinformation on Isreal and Ron Paul.
First, Israel is a member of NATO. Ron Paul will support NATO allies. Solving Israeli/Arab boarder conflicts is Israels problem, not ours. Iran has the “capability” to make weapons grade plutonium and no delivery system yet you neocons want to bomb Iran. NK HAS weapons grade plutonium and they are working on their failed delivery system, yet you arn‘t beating the the drums to bomb NK AND the US doesn’t consider them a threat. Why?
Second of all, dust off your bible and actually read it instead of regurgitating what Pat Robertson and the like tell you to say.
The bible states that Jesus is “The Stone the builders rejected”.
Hear that?
They REJECTED Jesus as their Savior. Paul of Tarsus said to preach the good news first to the Jew, if they reject you, shake the dust from your sandals and your cloak “AS A TESTAMENT AGAINST THEM!”.
Jesus himself said he was REJECTED by his own people and that his name would thus become GREAT among the gentiles.
Get over your “chosen people” rhetoric. You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink.
If we left the area, peace would probably break out over night, if not Israel DOES have tactical nukes and can beat the piss out of any attacking country with the help of one U.S. aircraft carrier already off shore. Israel can handle themselves.

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 1:31pmWhat did the Founding Fathers say about drugs and supporting Isreal? Yeah nothing. However; a guy name Jefferson once said, “Commerce with all nations; alliances with none.” You people at the Craze are supposed to be into the Constitution and the Founding Fathers…. Buts its more like the NEOCONsitution. How long are we going to run our foreign policy around Israel? How many terrorist attacks has nuetral Switzerland had? Our enemy is not in the middle east, its in DC.
Also, nowhere in the constitution did the founders say that the Federal Govt has the right to tell you what you can put in your body. Alcohol is the most dangerous drug and is legal. The whole border mess is BASED around drugs being illegal. We have the highest prison population in the world. Hows that working out? Not to mention, drug enforcement gives Uncle Scam more incentive to spend. Get government out of our health, our church, our business and our pockets. You guys are a bunch of fakes. Ron Paul or die. Cuz if we dont, we are all gonna die anyway. End the Fed, End the Media/Govt complex, End the Industrial/war complex, end the Unconstitutional complex

Why were you ok with NK obtaining Nukes? Why don’t you want to bomb them??? Why don’t you consider NK a threat since they already have nukes and working on a delivery system??? Iran only has the capability to possibly MAKE weapons grade plutonium and ZERO delivery system and you want to bomb them??? Really? So what if they get nukes? Israel is light years ahead of them in tactical nuke tech and would turn them into a glass parking lot before they could “spin up” their missiles.

Posted on December 28, 2011 at 1:54pmHow is that idiotic? The war on drugs is a huge stimulus big spending government program that is an absolute abject failure. It is easier for kids to get heroin and pot than it is for them to get alcohol and cigarettes. The only thing that happens when you make drugs illegal is that you make drug dealers rich.
So what do you base your opinion on in order to call this man an idiot? Wouldn‘t the idiot be the person that supports the huge wasteful spending program that doesn’t work?
You know, we always make fun of liberals because they think they can end poverty by spending lots and lots of money through the government. Well guess what, we conservatives can’t end bad behavior by spending lots and lots of money through the government. LIFE JUST DOESN’T WORK THAT WAY.

Like Jefferson quotes? Here is some for ya…………
Addressed to William Canby in 1813
“ Of all systems of morality, ancient or modern, which have come under my observation, none appear to be so pure as that of Jesus.”
“Can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice can not sleep forever.”
“The God that gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time.”
“I hold the precepts of Jesus as delivered by Himself, to be the most pure, benevolent and sublime which have ever been preached to man….”
“To the corruptions of Christianity, I am indeed opposed; but not to the genuine precepts of Jesus Himself. I am a Christian, in the only sense He wished anyone to be; sincerely attached to His doctrines, in the preference to all others.”
From Jefferson’s Last Will and Testament
“I am a real Christian – that is to say, a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus Christ.”
–The Writings of Thomas Jefferson, p. 385.

First time I think I have ever seen a “so-called” conservative pleading for government to do your parenting. Not even sure what point you are trying to make with the cell phone/bong comments.
Prohibition doesnt work. It’s only enabled another albatross of government institutions that have nothing to show for what amounts to more than a trillion dollars of spending. It‘s another goverment grift that we should have seen coming since post 30’s. No lesson learned and even in light of emperical evidence and mountains of data people continue to champion the drug war. Tax payers get the shaft on both ends of this thing. The low lifes that run the trade get rich, while the government continues to take money from honest hard working folks for this sham that doesn’t stop a single person ever from getting the drugs they want.

As President, Ron Paul will lead the way out of this crisis by:
* Vetoing any unbalanced budget Congress sends to his desk.
* Refusing to further raise the debt ceiling so politicians can no longer spend recklessly.
* Fighting to fully audit (and then end) the Federal Reserve System, which has enabled the over 95% reduction of what our dollar can buy and continues to create money out of thin air to finance future debt.
* Legalizing sound money, so the government is forced to get serious about the dollar’s value.
* Ending the corporate stranglehold on the White House.
* Driving down gas prices by allowing offshore drilling, abolishing highway motor fuel taxes, increasing the mileage reimbursement rates, and offering tax credits to individuals and businesses for the use and production of natural gas vehicles.
* Eliminating the income, capital gains, and death taxes to ensure you keep more of your hard-earned money and are able to pass on your legacy to your family without government interference.
* Opposing all unfunded mandates and unnecessary regulations on small businesses and entrepreneurs.
