Ron Paul a permanent fixture and a Presidential Prop

"Meet the Press," Republican presidential hopeful, Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, appears Sunday, Dec. 23, 2007 on "Meet the Press" at the NBC studios in Washington.is no wonder that when Reagan challenged Ford some four years earlier for the GOP nomination, Paul was one of only a handful of sitting congressmen who supported Reagan's effort.

American idiots, wake up, Ron Paul is a moron. What is the matter with people. Millions of dollars for the campaign of this protegee' of FRED FLINTSTONE. I am amazed at how people have become mentally deficient in the America of the 21st century.

Paul has managed to become the first Republican candidate I've seen since 1980 that can draw huge crowds so devoted to their candidate that they seem almost cult-like in their zeal. Believe it or not, that's what we thought of the Reagan crowds that gathered early in his bid for president in 1980. Ron Paul is compared to Reagan. Reagan is dead and gone. Why is there so much talk about reaganesque politics, is beyond me. I got less back on my income tax returns under Reagan then any time in my life under any other president.

Reagan faked military ferocity at Grenada. According to my memory, Reagan was moot after the bombing of the U.S. Marines barracks in Beirut, in October 1983, in which over 267 Marines were killed. It was the "final nail in the coffin" for the Reagan peace initiative. By March 30, 1984, under intense Congressional pressure, Reagan pulled the United States out of the UN multinational force that he had helped create. He let slide the Islamo Facsists.

I remember this under "The Gipper's watch"....Thus everything that could be done to set up the sacrifice was now complete:

[I] all 300 Marines at the airport were told to sleep in the same building,
[2] signs were posted at the gates announcing that all weapons inside were unloaded,
[3] gates were left open and without adequate barriers,
[4] the sentries were forbidden to load their weapons, what a joke.
[5] the sentries were forbidden to open fire at unauthorized vehicles which tried to force their way in and out

In the week preceding the massacre, American intelligence received "strong and explicit warnings" that because of our stepped-up bombings of the Muslims there would be a spectacular terrorist attack" on the Marines, but when this report was transmitted to Washington no action was taken to change the "White Card" rules of non-defense.(10) Although some National Security Council members urged Reagan "to pull back the U.S. Marines from Beirut to the U.S. fleet" because "the Lebanese Muslims viewed the U.S. Marines as an ally of the Christian militia which could be targeted," Reagan overruled them all. We had delegated to him the grim task of sacrificing those Marines, and he had promised us he would carry out our sacrifice. Reagan was a schmuck, I am sorry ladies and gentlemen.

The fact is that Reagan tamed both his rhetoric and the implementation of his agenda to meet the realities of the presidency. My guess is that were Ron Paul to have such a chance, he would inevitably do the same and worse in other areas of his administration. Disgusting if you ask me.... but what can you expect from the 21st century America.


I still believe that between the Republican Party's longing to appear "mainstream" and the national political media's fear of appearing to give in to "fringe elements," that Paul's quest for the nomination fall short in the end...But as I have said before, Lord help both parties if he decides to run as a third-party candidate and that is extremely problematic.

In a speech that year, Reagan expressed concerns about America losing its monetary independence. And, eerily, he alluded to fears about foreign nations owning American currency.

As I try to remind my friends who were around in 1980, Reagan was considered by the mainstream Republican establishment to be as kooky as many label Paul as being.

What Paul lacks is Reagan's movie-star looks, a good line of crap, precision delivery of his lines, and the credibility that comes with having been governor of California. Even without those attributes, Paul has managed to become a candidate that they seems almost cult-like in their zeal. Believe it or not, that's what we thought of the Reagan crowds that gathered early in his bid for president in 1980.

Americans are now more idiotic then ever and that's what scares me. Can anyone who is a thinker imagine if Ron Paul won the presidency. OH no worse...how about Hillary, or the sneaky Muslim, christian wanna be, or how about the court jester, doll face Edwards.

You know what America stop building bathrooms with foot baths for the heathens and finance more churches because we need to be united in prayer. God is the only one who can save us from the presidential props in 2008.
