I'm going with Ron Paul, and if one of the NeoCons win the Republican nomination I'll vote for Obama.

I hate NeoCons more than you do. They have ruined the Republican party, and give us conservatives a bad name.
I like Ron Paul, I voted for him in 2008.

because there have been too many?...or because?
What is wrong with southern governors, that you don't want one in the white house?
Is it some issue you have with southerners in general?

Re: Perry - Intellectual Heavyweight?
That last really shouldn't need to be mentioned on a list of accomplishments, but given the last decade it's become rather relevant.
really? the guy that messed up Kosovo, The Balkans war, Rwanda, and Mogadishu? Are you talking about the guy from hope, the guy that wanted to flex his government muscles by attacking eccentric isolationists, at Ruby Ridge, and Waco Texas (where his fed death squad murdered 73 innocent american citizens, who were mostly women and children)? the guy that used that illegal government action against its own civilians, as an example to pass the 1994 federal assault weapons ban?
he is not innocent next to W., its rare for a president to go through impeachment proceedings now mater how bad they are at it. Of course he did not invade any foreign countries, nor did he do anything about genocide TWICE during his presidency, and he was busy invading Texas, to get bad shit passed. I think its fitting the POTUS after him came from Texas.

Re: Perry - Intellectual Heavyweight?
* sighs *
oh you mean the 1st special counsel ever, and one appointed by Janet Reno herself. I'm sure he was very objective and unbiased [sarcasm].
FBI agents witnessed Davidians pouring fuel and igniting a fire, and noted these observations contemporaneously.
oh you mean those same FBI agents that lied under oath?
Between 1993 and 1999, FBI spokesmen denied (even under oath) the use of any sort of pyrotechnic devices during the assault; however, pyrotechnic Flite-Rite CS gas grenades had been found in the rubble immediately following the fire. In 1999, FBI spokesmen were forced to admit that they had used the grenades...When the FBI's documents were turned over to Congress for an investigation in 1994, the page listing the use of the pyrotechnic devices was missing. [26] The failure for six years to disclose the use of pyrotechnics despite her specific directive led Reno to demand an investigation. [26] A senior FBI official told Newsweek that as many as 100 FBI agents had known about the use of pyrotechnics, but no one spoke up until 1999.
good call
It's a term used by paranoid lunatics for people who aren't paranoid lunatics. It's intended to imply that the underlying cause of their failure to believe mad things is mindless conformity rather than not being mad.
the same thing was said of Jews who escaped the holocaust.

Re: Perry - Intellectual Heavyweight?
I don't know if they were the same ones; and in this instance their story is confirmed by the surviving Davidians.
there are also survivors who say the Feds started the fire. you found a lying fed organization and one survivor to corroborate your side, big deal.
That sentence was such a bizarre non sequitur that I am not sure what you're trying to be wrong about.
predictable side step.

It might indeed "be "predictable" that I couldn't make sense of that sentence, but it is in no way a side-step".
Let me break it down for you, even though I’m sure I will have to repeat myself 10 times anyway.
The holocaust started in the 1930s.
Some Jews escaped, and told others in the outside world of the atrocities.
No one wanted to believe them, and they were accused of elaborating the situation, starting conspiracy theories, and being anti-german.
When you stated that sheeple is a term that is intended to imply that the underlying cause of their failure to believe mad things is mindless conformity rather than not being mad.
I said the same thing was said of Jews who escaped the holocaust.
You didn’t understand, or something.
So, sheeple are people who believe that the Holocaust happened but don't believe in David Icke's lizard men. Sounds good to me.
That is your opinion and you are entitled to it. But to insinuate it is mine is nothing more than a weak strawman, as I said nothing of the sort.

Really?
quote
Godwin's law (also known as Godwin's Rule of Nazi Analogies or Godwin's Law of Nazi Analogies)[1][2] is a humorous observation made by Mike Godwin in 1990[2] that has become an Internet adage. It states: "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1 (100%)."[3][2] In other words, Godwin put forth the hyperbolic observation that, given enough time, in any online discussionregardless of topic or scopesomeone inevitably criticizes some point made in the discussion by comparing it to beliefs held by Hitler and the Nazis.
All this proves is that you can look something up on the internet, not the ability to understand what it means.
People not believing Jewish survivors in 1940, of the atrocities being committed in Europe, has nothing to do with a comparison of Nazis. I compared nothing to the Nazis. I spoke of Holocaust deniers in the early years of WWII. Once again you are grabbing straws and trying to attack me rather than my message, fortunately your kung fu is no good. One can speak of Jews and the Holocaust and have no comparison of the Nazis or Hitler, just as I did. You showed your hand to soon, just as you did in another thread when you accused me of breaking forum rules, your understanding of the topic at hand, is as usual, way off.
BTW that is Godwin not Goodwin.
ROFLMFAO!!!1111!!!!
Typical of posters of your caliber to go after a fat-fingered typo; the internet is littered with people like you.
Those without an argument fall back on a Godwin no matter how far the stretch.
you would probably know because you never have one.

Ah, the original Ad hominem is back. Where were you? Yeah the Waco Massacre. The ATF, FBI, and army at Ft. Hood broke the law, just to attack some eccentric Christians, who were minding their own business. Do you have evidence on the contrary?
