Romney is a Flat out Liar, a Fake, and a liberal.

Thats idiotic. He is the REPRESENTATIVE of his district. To not return his own districts tax money to them, but instead pass it on to the district of a Representative who voted FOR the money, would not only be completely stupid, it would reward bad behavior!

Again, this thread is about Romney. You have your own thread for discussing Paul.

 

You are a liar. Ron Paul is not an isolationist. He is a non-interventionist. He has also publicly stated that his plan would have a net increase of military.

Your position is absolutely contrary to common sense. "If we save trillions of dollars in overseas wars, we won't have money for military spending. We HAVE to keep spending trillions of dollars on undeclared wars!"

Your and the establishments position makes us ALL endangered.

 

He does this constantly. Unfortunately he is not able to convince his colleagues, who are bought off by corporate lobbyists.

Paul is constantly imploring his fellow representatives to stop the madness. You can see dozens of his speeches on Youtube, if you would care to.

Unfortunately, when someone is receiving millions from, for example, a Pharmaceutical lobbyist, it makes it very hard to convince that person to vote against the power of the FDA, whose boards are ran by Pharmaceutical lobbyists.

No, he has a "well, if your going to spend it, I'm not letting you take MY districts money!" attitude. He has an obligation, as the representative of his district to defend the as best as possible.

Because he is not completely sold out to corporate lobbyists? He has the best interests of the people in mind? He doesn't use his position to line his pocket, and increase his own political clout? Just pick one.

Again, this thread is about that two bit, lying, establishment robot Mit Romney. There are dozens of threads about Paul. Take it to one of those, please.

 

He does not want to engage in any military alliance. However he does want to have trade agreements and diplomatic friendships with other countries.

And historically, most conservatives have wanted no part of the UN, or other bodies to which we cede sovereignty...that does not make them isolationist.

 

"Isolationism" is not trading with other countries (like Cuba).

"Non-interventionism" means we do not go around bullying the world, simply because we are more powerful; i.e....

USA: "NO, YOU CANNOT VIOLATE OUR BORDER! I DON'T CARE WHO IS HIDING HERE!"

USA:"WE WILL VIOLATE YOUR BORDER ANY TIME WE WISH, BECAUSE WE HAVE THE POWER TO DO SO."

Sorry, but that should be repugnant to any thinking Christian. The idea that we can treat other countries different than we expect to be treated, simply because we have the power, is despicable.

 

That would be dumb. He cannot earmark the entire bill. Given that quandry, he must look out for his constituents. He is THEIR representative.

Horrible reasoning. Paul only has a small percentage of the total power of the House. He can only earmark a small percentage (approximately equal to the size of his district). His obligation, is that if he cannot influence or stop the entire bill, to at least direct the small portion he is able to take charge of.

And he does. But, again, he only gets to earmark a very small percentage of the funds. He is the Representative of HIS district. That is how the system works.

There is no "fantasy land." You are trying to invent hypocrisy where there is none. Paul is the representative of his district. He is not in charge of the entirety of Congress.
