Republicans show signs of Split.

"Romney-Paul 2012"? It does have a ring to it, I have to admit, though "Mitt/Rand" sounds a bit like a recent French President.

"Mittrand", "Mitrande", "Mitraundé/Mitrandeu". It's a slippery slope to Socialism! Wake up, sheeple! UN, Bilderberg, Trilateral, NWO, Illuminati, Vatican, Freemason, DAARPA, Jewish Bankers, Liberal Media, WWE, Communist, Satanist, Fascist, EKG, PPV, HTML, OMG, WTF, BBQ!! Don't you see?!

I do! I can see now! My eyes! The light is so bright!

[Wikkiwallana]

who is this benefiting the most?

The illuminati. They can use this to tighten their grasp on America's government.

Dammit, I hate getting ninja'd on jokes.

Even the regular Democrats drug things out. A few hecklers form a town hall meeting and it took the President to get them back on track.

Lyndon Johnson's ghost was probably howling, watching that spectacle of the President not being able to control his own party. Lyndon would have made a few phone calls,had a few meetings shown some compromising photographs and people would have been lined up, ready to vote.

I don't think the highly compromised ACA compares to the new deal, even if the public option had survived.

Not to mention Obama only got involved with the bill only when absolutely necessary to keep it going. FDR drove the New deal. If Obama had been a little bit more behind the bill I imgine the public option would have survived. The only reason the ACA got dubbed Obamacare was because the GOP tried to turn it into a personality attack.

Oh yes I agree Obama's more of a substance guy than a guy who focuses on the messaging and such. He should have definetley drove the debate. But I mean, if you look at the new deal in it's entirety a lot of it is just a bunch of hastiliy thought out compromises. And contrary to popular belief FDR often worked with business interests, his rhetoric was more leftward however.

* looks at your sig.* Uuuuuuuggggghhhhhh! even though you are a packer fan, I have to agree with you *puts on vikings helmet, realises they suck quicky, and sheepishly takes helmet off* Please dont crush us.

They get sent to FEMA death camps before they can vote.

FEMA death camps need to secure their wireless then so we don't have to listen to them.

I agree.

We're all gonna die. Damn you Mittrand!

FEMA death camps need to secure their wireless then so we don't have to listen to them.

The problem is, you see, when we hook them up to the electrical ... ah ... devices, their bodies turn into large antennas and the signal is boosted tremendously. Our crack team of technicians is looking into it, though.

Have you tried gimp suits? It adds another level to the process, and most are made of insulating materials.

I know what you mean about Kennedy and I agree. And yeah, that is the difference.

I find Biden very much like LBJ. Both from 2nd tier universities, both actually have histories of poverty. While not a majority leader he has served on several committees in the senate.

I find Obama and Kennedy very similar both Ivy league educated, both better at talking and campaigning than actually doing. Both with very limited experience in the Senate.

Given the type of policies I favor I am very happy Obama was elected President rather than Biden, and I would jump in front of a bullet for Obama just to make sure Biden does not become President that way.

As someone what?

[Des-Bal]

How many times does the falseness of this have to be pointed out before it sinks in around here?

Until you label the fucking thing so we know what exactly you're talking about.

[Demphor]

The republicans splitting in half would be cool, just because it is politically cool.

Messy, though.

[FranksFreedom]

Ron Paul is more small government conservative.

Biden like LBJ? Pass what you are smoking please. May I recommend robert caro"s books on lbj for reading, I don't know what I would recommend for biden. Thougt I do agree biden is excellent life insurance for obama.

[Kohlastan]

what about FDR's fireside chats which helped calm Ameria's paniced bank runs, has a done something like that? not really . . . FDR is clearly the better president because of his Fireside Chats,which probly only compare to Carters apperances durring the oil crisis, and his New Deal, an overhal that only can be compared to TR's Square Deal.

Carter was a bad President. He really wasn't a liberal and didn't attempt any grand liberal legislation like Clinton or Obama, and combined with a string of bad luck, had a bumbling foreign policy.

I did't say he was good I'm just pointing out that he made tv aperances durring the oil crisis, that are remenicent of FDR fireside chats, that all.two good things Carter tried to do (but failed) is put America on "green" enery (which acually cost more tan it produced) and convert America to the metic system. Carter would be a relitively good preident today though.

I don't have the time.

Anyone else wanna explain to this^ gentleman what the NDAA is really about so as to put the fear-mongering to rest?

Specifics on which each of those links goes to. You can't expect to throw that up every time someone says "Ron Paul" and have them sift through each individual post trying to figure out what specifically you were addressing.

[Seperates]

Heh... so they're becoming more like democrats?

Meh, I would be happy only if it was because there was a more liberal area of the Republican party splitting it, and not a stupidly conservative area...

[Kirav]

What about the centre-right Republicans? John Huntsman, John McCain, Mike Crapo, Lisa Murkowski, Jim Webb, etc.? Surely the moderate wing of the Republican Party would have a broader support base, attracting centrists, independents, and conservative Democrats, than either the knee-jerk reactionaries or the privatise-everything followers of Ron Paul.

There is no moderate wing anymore.

You mean the NDAA that simply reaffirms the AUMF which Paul voted for?

Been meaning to sift through it all anyway:

One stop shop for all my "Paul is awful" needs:
Ron Paul is no Friend to Progressives
Racism, support of DOMA, PMCs, and against the Civil Rights Act
More racism, Paul "approved every line" of racist newsletters
even MORE racism: "95% of African American men in DC are semi-criminal or entirely criminal"
Still more racism from Paul
Paul's stances from the man himself: anti-aborton, privatize energy, end NHS
We The People Act
Paul on anti-sodomy laws: states have the power to regulate sex
Paul's 2012 Republican Primary shenanigans
Only states had power to abolish slavery
No right to privacy, and even more. 2 posts
"US should declare bankruptcy"
Paul acknowledges and defends racist remarks
Ron Paul's ranking on "Secular Score Card."
Why the gold standard is a bad idea
more on State's Rights
Why defaulting would be a very bad thing

Wikkiwallana: if you think I've mis-summarized any of these, let me know.
