You Callin’ Ron Paul a Liar?

by | Nov 28, 2007 |

Some jerk just claimed on CNN that Ron Paul lied in tonight's CNN-Youtube debate when he said that there were 5,000 people at his rally in Philadelphia. Oh, yeah? Well I just Googled: Ron Paul Philadelphia 5000 and I got 462,000 results, lead by this: Local NBC coverage: Ron Paul Philadelphia Veterans’ Rally Draws 5000 - News - NBC13.com "Over 5,000" and this: US News and World Report: Ron Paul Finds Fans in Cradle of Liberty - News Desk (usnews.com) "5,000 " " "'It certainly looks bigger than...

Columnist Asks for Answers from Ron Paul Supporters

by | Nov 27, 2007 |

Link. ‘Ron Paul scares me because he is actually going to do what he says...What happens if Iraq is overtaken by extremists? What happens if the flow of oil is disrupted in Saudi Arabia? What do we do if Israel is bombed by Hamas and Hezbollah, or Iran? What if Iran, with their mind set on the destruction of Israel, gets a nuclear weapon? If any Ron Paul supporters reading this know the answers to these questions please tell me. Because, frankly, I want a non-interventionist policy, but I...

He is now supporting Ron Paul M.D. Note that the interview he links to is the great one with that newspaper editorial board in New Hampshire — the one where he actually argues with the lady about abortion.

But that tradition has been under a decade-long assault by religious-right moralists, neoconservative interventionists and a governing coalition that...

Ron Paul Explains the Importance of Mises and the Austrian School

by | Nov 22, 2007 |

Mises and Austrian Economics: A Personal View by Ron Paul [.pdf] The economist’s approval of the market for purely utilitarian reasons actually becomes a more ‘objective’ analysis if not approached from a natural rights standpoint. But when combined with a natural-rights philosophy, it is even more powerful. No choice must be made. The utilitarian argument does not exclude the belief that life and liberty originates with the Creator. When they are added together they become doubly important....

Why hasn’t Ron Paul jumped all over the FBI?

... for raiding the Gold/Silver coin operation in Indiana? Doesn’t the Constitution say in Article I Section 10: ‘No state shall’¦ make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts’’¦? So selling Gold is illegal? Not only is the fed violating the Constitution by issuing it's own counterfeit credit notes -but arresting people for obeying the Constitution. Come on Ron. We know you want to start a parallel Gold currency system to run along-side the plummeting dollair. Now's a...
