“WAR IS PEACE,” “FREEDOM IS SLAVERY,” “IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.”
Just like the “net neutrality bill” is akin to the “Anti-Dog-Eat-Dog Rule”.
Chuck Hagel just stepped down as Sec of State.Apparently pushed out by Obama.
Hagel was fighting with Susan Rice about defending America and strategy in the middle east.
Of course Obama and Rice have no intention of defending America or the best interests of this country ANYWHERE in this world.
Oh, Ron Paul? A lunatic.
“Sec of State”…
Thank you, “RINO”.
“SEC OF DEFENSE”
He is such an idiot he rants about things he has no clue what he is ranting (sec of state..lolololol) he just wants to go full partisan hate rambo as it makes him feel like he knows whats going on and can participate in a meaningful conversation with the adults, when really he doesnt know shit from shinola. Boy, get back to the kids table and wait for your turkey.
(not you ID..DickJuggler was whom i was referring..)
A brilliant analysis of world affairs.
SPOILER ALERT
Congress will continue to make “attempts” at reform up until the deadline starts looming, then someone will submit a bill extending the whole thing, possibly even granting additional powers, and it will “barely” pass. Obama will huff and puff about one of the new powers he is being granted, but will ultimately sign it anyways and “promise” not to use whatever he didn’t like.
Ron Paul and libertarians will pat themselves on the back for not compromising, even if it still results in the worst of Congress stripping even more of our rights away.
Most libertarians will then go to the voting booths in 2016 to help elect more Republicans, which will happily extend these powers and more well into the future.
“At the time, 62 Democrats voted against the Act. On the Republican side there were only three no votes: former Rep. Bob Ney (R-OH), former Rep. Butch Otter (R-ID), and myself.”
The salient point that wacko Paul misses is that the operative word is “former”. Take a hint.
The hint being Republicans hate freedom?
Or is the hint that Republicans are doing what it takes to fight terrorism and Dems are morons?
The hint that Paul and his 2 buds need to take is that they are no longer in the decision making loop, if they ever were.
” if they ever were.”
They haven’t been. That’s what’s weird about your point. I literally know no one that think’s Paul has had any influence on foreign policy as run by the US government.
It’s like you’re stating the obvious, I was looking for some deeper point.
“Edward Snowden” and where is this whistleblower hanging out…haven’t heard from him for awhile.
In Russia with his comrades.
Most of the public doesn’t care about the illegal stuff he reported, so he’s living where the other people who don’t care won’t prosecute him for telling everyone the truth.
To tell the truth, he wouldn’t be prosecuted for telling the truth but he would be prosecuted for doing illegal stuff.
“To tell the truth, he wouldn’t be prosecuted for telling the truth”
It’s illegal for him to tell the truth. It’s literally, illegal.
How does it feel to live in a place where the gov’t over us has outlawed the truth?
He would prosecuted for doing the illegal stuff.
Feels better to live here than any other country I’ve been in.
Yes, telling the truth is “illegal stuff”.
Best turd in the pile is still a turd. Not only that, the Swiss & Canadians might disagree.
Because of my career in the military there is much I know that I can not talk about. Although it is the truth it’s illegal stuff if I talk about it.
So you think it’s a turd, your opinion, it sucks for you but it’s your opinion.
“So you think it’s a turd, your opinion, it sucks for you but not for me.”
If things keep going the way they are, it’s even gonna suck for gov’t workers like you.
I’m sure if you have your way it will.
“I’m sure if you have your way it will.”
It’s been “your way” for some time now…and things are getting worse….in fact I don’t see it getting better anytime soon.
The part that sucks is that now the people are the enemy, not Russia or China. It sucks when to be loyal to the United States of America (The Government) is to be disloyal to the people.
People say if you do nothing wrong you will have nothing to worry about. True here as it is in China or Cuba.
Also, isn’t this the same government that was caught spraying biological agents over cities, assisting in the distribution of drugs (go see the movie kill the messenger) and other shocking things? Why are Americans so trusting of government? It seems un-American to be so trusting of government. I guess most of us have become good comrades.
As usual, Ron Paul is spot-on with his observations. Sadly, the point of them goes over the heads of the majority.
If he’s a republican and a libertarian,why doesn’t he get, ” ” around whatever he’s supposed to be?
The Patriot act was a good law under an administration that respected the people of our country. I personally opposed it because I knew we wouldn’t always have that kind of administration. I have sadly been proven right.
