What exactly would be the purpose of a wolf dressing up in a lion's skin? |

sorry, wolf in sheeps skin. Basically 'not a real sheep'...not a real Republican, as the Republicans don't seem to recognize Ron Paul as one of their own. |

OK. Supporting Pat Buchanan for president sounds pretty Republocrat to me.

| He does very little in line with Republocrats. |
Why isn't he independent?

If he had won this time, and managed to avoid assassination, we'd have begun the long, difficult process of climbing out of the depression.
You mean he'd have allowed whatever was going to happen to happen?
No. He would have provided the necessary leadership to stop digging the hole we are in instead of continuing. |
Aha, so you mean he was going to allow whatever was going to happen to happen.

The Fed would have begun the process of its abolition which may still happen if his bill, HR1207, gets passed.
ROFL. You mean Congress was going to permit this?
Umm, he already has gotten a majority of the House to co-sponsor it, and we know that as president he could accomplish much more. |
That's not a bill to abolish the Fed...

We would also be back on our way to having real money again, likely by a gold standard.
ROFL. You mean Congress was going to permit this?
It did at one time, and now we need some drastic changes. With the proper leadership and confluence of circumstances, it is possible. |
While I think this is an interesting idea, I have yet to hear how such a change would be implemented, especially in the midst of an economic collapse.

Our troops would have begun the process of return from Iraq and Afghanistan.
So, they were all just going to vamoose?
If you find yourself in a hole, don't keep digging. |
While I disagree with permanent bases and puppet goverments, it seems quite obvious that you can't just up and leave overnight. I really don't think that we'd be anywhere much different than we are now.

I beg to differ with the above implications that Bush and Obama are one and the same. On the other hand, I haven't really read all of that copy-paste you've listed above. As such, I'm not going to reply here or at this time.
If after reading the above articles you still feel there are significant differences (besides the one I already mentioned), I'd love to hear them.
I'm well-acquainted with your deafness.
Yet you continue to speak volumes to me! Masochism much? |
Whatever you want to call it. It's already happened over on the BAR thread. |
