Republican Debate: Ron Paul
Ron Paul is literally STOMPING all candidates according to the CNBC poll. Vote and see results here, or if you missed the debate it will air again at 9PM Eastern on MSNBC, then go vote who you think won:

Thats so funny! Gee, I wonder why he isn't on the board in any of the election polls. [:D][:D]
Sorry to say he is 3rd or 4th string among the Republican voters. Maybe the libertarians will all vote for him but there aren't very many of those around.
I do think that many of us are going to be very disappointed on election day.[;)]0 -
The last I looked 8200+ votes were in and Ron PAul had 75% with his closest rival at 7%. He stomped on the competition according to the public poll in the last debate and he's doing it again. [:D] Funny. 0 -

The way you rant and rave everytime his name comes up I honestly beleive you just might be the whack job. You're a duplicate of 30.0 -

I think you're the only delusional one here. I feel like I'm taken back in time to middle school when I read your posts on him. Nothing of substance only fluff. I won't be reading more of your posts they are worthless and have no substance.0 -
okay. i just dont feel the need to try to refute anything ron paul says. i wouldnt know where to begin. its just laughable. he is JUST like the loony liberals that its a waste to even respond to his logic.
if you like him thats cool.....i guess, lol.0 -
I think I'm TiVoing it.
I'll watch it later.

Page not found. Looks like for the 20th time a poll he won handily has been pulled.
I saw it happen on msnbc, foxnews, and drudgereport after the other debates. He was in the lead usually by a lot, and the poll disappears.
Drudge has a picture at the top of Romney and Ghouliani right now0 -
Wow, what utter BS.
Did they pull the FOX one that he won too? I remember I had a hard time getting my text message vote to be tallied.
Inasmuch as I don't believe in Jesus Paul, the flim-flammery regarding his polling is pretty ridiculous and indicative of the media's games.

Ron Paul can go to hell with all of the other scum that blame 9/11 on America. I have about as much use for him as I do an unidentifiable growth on my scrotum. 0 -

It reminds me of the several gun polls that the media puts out. When the results don't suit their agenda, the poll quickly (and quietly) disappears0 -
All the crunchy-granola university types out here (y'know, the same ones that want to ban Red Cross blood drives because they're not equal-opportunity enough) are campaigning hard for Ron Paul, which is something I really don't understand. He seems to be one of the few candidates that's at all decent even in the basic sense of actually believing in anything, but why a guy who far as I'm aware is a hardcore libertarian type is appealing to socialists is beyond me. Don't they have Kucinich or Nader or something?
Anyone who sees him as a blame-America-firster clearly hasn't paid much attention to the current political environment, which has plenty of people who actually do believe that 9/11 was America's fault to the point of being convinced that Bush personally went through the Twin Towers sowing demolition charges the night of September 10th. From what I gather he believes that a 9/11-type attack was a to some extent predictable reaction from the jihadis we helped create to the existence of a strong opponent to their crazed fantasies of a second caliphate, and an event that could have been prevented had we been more cautious about the international scenario.
Which it was. Hell, it wasn't even the first time al Qaeda bombed the Twin Towers, we just didn't do jack-all about the muhajedin but chuck a couple cruise missiles in Osama's general direction until it was too late.
20/20 hindsight, maybe, but anyone who wants to be a little more careful to prevent mass deaths on American soil and the crumbling of American power before it happens is an alright guy in my book. Bush has basically been reading off the checklist of things Osama said he hoped would happen in his tapes after 9/11.0 -
"Ron Paul can go to hell with all of the other scum that blame 9/11 on America."
That's a clear misrepresentation of what he said.
He said that "blowback" was partially responsible for 9/11.
In other words...OUR GOVERNMENT'S MEDDLING in other countries governments and economic affairs contribute to fringies in those countries hating us.
ANYONE, who thinks there's not some grain of truth to that is living in an alternative universe.
WE, through our Government, which doesn't give a damn what we think when buying influence in foriegn lands, TAMPERS TOO MUCH WITH OTHER .GOVs.
While our .gov is doleing out funds STOLEN from hardworking people to curry favor with some shythead tinpot dictator for their oil or other natural resources, and in our naivete, think we're "helping" that country, seldom think about how much actually gets to the average citizens. Most of it is stuffed into pockets of unelected thugs, despots, dictators and unaccountable bureaucrats.
No wonder not just Islamofascists hate us.

Think that's a fair enough explanation of Europe and Asia. If the Chinese were pulling some of the poop we pull with our government, we'd be screamin' for war with them. That's just general colonial pissiness, though. The Arabs are organized in fighting America 'cos half of 'em were getting money from the Soviets 'till they fell apart and the other half think they're gonna take over the world with their crazy global theocracy and we're in the way.
Which myth of a second caliphate we largely revitalized and backed to contain the commies. Hence why it'd pay off to think a little more longterm next time.0 -
Ron "911 Truther" Paul? Heh heh heh. 0 -
Aw man don't even joke about those jerks, they run this town.
Seriously, a bill to prosecute Bush for plotting 9/11 was only narrowly smacked down by city hall last year.0 -
Ron Paul has been specifically asked if he is a "911 Truther" and he said no. They then asked him "Well why do you go on Alex Jones (very vocal 911 truther)show?"
He responded: "I go on Fox News too and i don't agree with everything they say either."
Saying he is a 'truther" is a(nother) smear and a lie.0 -
When Ron Paul speaks, Wallstreet cringes.
So do I.
Professor Ripley says "I've heard enough from Ron Paul. He's as kooky as Ross Perot and twice as irritating. Now he's becomming an embarassment."

Man, I hadn't even heard that he actually backed the 9/11 Truth guys (and giving those nutjobs legitimacy by having a presidential candidate on their tinfoil-hat show is as much supporting them as if he'd written their movement a big fat check to go make some more crappy movies). So much for respecting him for at least doing more than parroting the broken party line. 0 -

I'll get right on that. As soon as you get that crainal-rectal inversion problem of yours corrected.0 -
Based on the debate, I"M SCARED.
Fred Thompson: Lack luster. Did anybody inform him he was going to a debate?
Rudy: Like him. Don't trust him on some KEY issues.
Ron Paul: How can anyone get so many things right, and then turn around and appear to lose all touch w/reality is beyond me.0 -
quote:At the end of the debate, MSNBC's online votes showed Ron Paul standing out from the other candidates. As of August 20, Ron Paul is winning "Best one liner," "Who stood out from the pack" "Most convincing debater", and "Who showed the most leadership qualities?" In all four, he has at least 45% of the total vote.
I like him just because the "Republican Party" is dismissing him as even an option. He's not part of the "club", so he gets trashed repeatedly. Well, F*** their club!!!

Amen to that! 0 -
I think it fairly obvious that a man who is running a under 5% in most polls would not be polling 45%+ during a debate absent some shenanigans. If, however, those that were watching the debate were focused on what the U.S. Constitution says rather than how good a candidate may make them feel, Paul would be at greater than 90%.
BTW: Nemesisenforcer, you may have missed them, but there are endless references that specifically show Paul dismissing your statement. It is fine if you do not want to research it, but you are speaking from a false premise.0
