You are a disgrace to our founding fathers. Bankrupting our country in the name of the war on terror is no more honorable than through social programs. You will be held to account for what you’ve done to our country and even the GOP party. But hey, You’re a winner, right? How pathetic. You are more interested in winning in the wrong way, to do damage to your country than to win with honor and on principle.
Unlike you, Ron Paul is more interested in saving our country the right way. He’s more interested in starting a movement based on constitutional principles which are sustainable for future generations.
You are like a political whore and you boast about it! You, sir are the problem with the GOP and I and other campaign for liberty participants will do all we can do defeat you and all that you stand for.

An interesting back and forth between Griff Jenkins and Janeane Garofalo over her calling the tea party goers, racist. While I agree with her that we should have been protesting LONG before Obama, I’m not sure that makes us racists. Remember, it took two bailouts (By two presidents from both parties) to get us here.
Just a reminder of the kind of people who protested;
So racist.
And furthermore, I guess what I would say to Janeane is that this may be a Goldwater type movement. I really do feel as though the GOP is going to have a battle on it’s hands to keep the libertarian movement from over taking it’s Neo-con base. Garofalo seems to make the mistake of assuming the tea party goers are all Neo-con stooges, as opposed to what they are – Dissafected conservatives and even democrats, sick and tired of the fake “sides” that have morphed into one single, big government party.
In a fascinating scene, Lindsey Graham says that Libertarians and Libertarian ideas are NOT welcomed to the Republican Party. He also mentions that Ron Paul is not the leader of the party. This drew an outrage from some in the crowd. It’s amazing what’s happening right now to the GOP. It’s like watching a splintering church.
Bawhahaha: President Obama And Debt – The Market Ticker:
Oh really Mr. President?
May 14 (Bloomberg) — President Barack Obama, calling current deficit spending “unsustainable,” warned of skyrocketing interest rates for consumers if the U.S. continues to finance government by borrowing from other countries. “We can’t keep on just borrowing from China,” Obama said at a town-hall meeting in Rio Rancho, New Mexico, outside Albuquerque. “We have to pay interest on that debt, and that means we are mortgaging our children’s future with more and more debt.”
Gee, you just figured that out? After roughly three months and change in office, it just dawned on you that after bleating about George W. Bush’s budget deficits, putting forward a budget with three times his projected deficit (and then exceeding THAT!) was unsustainable? Well then how come you pushed (and still back) the budget that led to this
Earlier this week, the Obama administration revised its own budget estimates and raised the projected deficit for this year to a record $1.84 trillion, up 5 percent from the February estimate. The revision for the 2010 fiscal year estimated the deficit at $1.26 trillion, up 7.4 percent from the February figure. The White House Office of Management and Budget also projected next year’s budget will end up at $3.59 trillion, compared with the $3.55 trillion it estimated previously.
Insanity. Pure insanity. Or pure George Orwell. You choose, dear reader. Mr. Obama proposed a whole $17 billion in budget cuts across a $3,500 billion budget? 1/2 of 1% Mr. President, and you call that “meaningful” reductions?
