OK I stole this from another website Link here http://www.commondreams.org/view/2011/12/27-5


This guy is good I bring it to you free of charge as brain candy.


This is my slightly edited response to yahoo news article, "Ex-Aide to Ron Paul Makes Stunning Claims About Old Boss..."

To all of you who have been propagandized into believing Ron Paul is our newest savior, try really hard to jog your memories into recalling the decades of campaign promises not kept.

As I have watched more and more people jump on Ron Paul's band wagon I did a little reading up on old Ronnie. While he may certainly be one of the few politicians who has consistently stood his ground, often loudly against the flow, if one digs past the lauded stands...stopping wars, ending big brother's homeland security measures, auditing and dissolving the Fed, ending the War on Drugs being a few of the most appealing...one ought to be more than a little skeptical.

I suspect that, if elected, Ron Paul might actually get some of his agenda implemented. Things like finishing off ALL government programs that help anyone (but his fellow isolationists and Empire-thinkers) by seeing to it that they become fully privatized. If anyone thinks THAT is a good idea, oh well...you'd likely change your mind when fruition of his extremist plans adversely effected YOUR life. As to Paul's rather clear isolationist tendencies...those strike me as more than a bit worrisome.

His aim and ability to stop wars?? Seems that if one used deductive reasoning, one could plainly see that with the US being the world's largest weapons manufacturer AND dealer, stopping US interest/participation in wars with our presidential vote is a pipe dream. Especially considering that a good many of ALL weapons being used for war anywhere on the planet, whether the US is directly involved in the fighting or not, have been made and supplied (directly or indirectly) by the US. The MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX is not a fiction. The US IS AND HAS BEEN for some time THE BIGGEST BULLY ON THE PLANET.

No one, not Ron Paul or any other presidential wanna-be will stop wars!!!! And, I'm to be encouraged that Ron Paul supposedly has greater financial support from soldiers and other military personnel than any other candidate!?

It will be the unwavering refusal, by WE THE PEOPLE all over the globe, to be drone-fighters and flag-waving supporters of war that will ever stop them...in conjunction with a universal effort by the masses to turn fear of 'different' into acceptance and appreciation.

As to the Federal Reserve?? THAT entity, with the intentionally misleading name, along with the IMF, the World Bank and a handful of other equally threatening institutions of elitist cronyism own the planet...lock, stock and barrel. You don't have to dig very deep to see the threads of coercion and intent that are being successfully manipulated to unravel all middle classes and to ultimately deny regular working folks of much else but 'worker bee' status......the very real progress towards which should be pretty easy to see.

How is it that otherwise reasonably intelligent people can be so easily led this way or that by politicians and pundits who all clearly serve an elite segment of the population whose members are often self-serving sociopaths who have little to no compassion or regard for ANYBODY not in their club? WAKE UP!! Realize that there will be NO CANDIDATE on the ballot of the next or any future presidential election (as long as they are influenced so completely by money and special interests) who will be able to single-handedly change what is so obviously being powerfully controlled and orchestrated from behind the soulless, greed-gilded curtain of the real terrorists.

How can so many people be convinced that any one or the other of the presidential hopefuls, currently being paraded about to steer or scare voters to the best corporate candidate, is THE ONE?

Perhaps, because they are unable to recall the last batch of un-kept presidential campaign promises or to see through the ever-expanding holes in the illusory veil of rosy promises repeatedly waved about by oppressive hands that proudly and self-righteously knock down any and all deemed unworthy of similar privilege, seemingly intent on keeping the vast majority of us from ever attaining an equal portion of the pie...or even just enough of a slice to comfortably and healthily sustain life!

*******************************

RP Not only talks the talk, he walks the walk! His voting record proves it!

He didn't get the name "DR NO" for voting WITH the establishment that has given us the BS your post proclaims, BUT AGAINST IT!

As for the wars.... The President controls the military and the movement of troops! All he has to do is say "Bring them HOME!"...hard to fight a war with no troops!

I like alot of what RP says, I liked alot of what Obama said too.

I think anyone who thinks RP alone can turn back the empire and creeping police state is practicing self delusion.

I think all he will be able to accomblish is the further destruction of any government program that helps common people.

That is all they will let him accomplish.

I still think he is the best republican candidate in a field of bufffoons.

Throw your support to the 99% movement that is your best chance for change

All I see here are a bunch of suppositions and opinions. I suspect...I have watched...Seems that...etc. This story is laden with personal opinion, not fact. And how many times must it be said that his views are NOT in line with isolationism?

I do not think for a minute he will be able to take down the fed stop the wars etc etc.

All he will do is kill off social security and medicare.

Will he be able to stop the Israeli lobby?

The Military Industrial Establishment?

Not a chance.

Lets be real for a minute.

I am all for what he says he wants to do and admire him for his courage of convictions in a sence I am a fan.

His end game will do far more damage than good.

I rest my hopes with the 99 percenters

I think what Ron Paul wants to stop is illegal wars not fully approved by congress.

We will always have wars.

Unfortunately.

But the global elite will probably not let Ron Paul throw a wrench in their plans.

Ron Paul is revolution. Not reality.

He will never fit into the current administration ruled by the elite.

But I support his message. Let him send it.

Even the making the report stated that RP stated he didn't think their should be an Isreal.....never speaking any hate or prejudice of any ethnicity or ethnic group. Technically, if you look at the Hebrews stolen and held by the Egyptians for the purpose of slavery, not much different than the Africans (now African-American subgroup of the US). The land was taken a people without a land. Therefore the mentality of the original landholders response in warlike effort of centuries to regain the land once belonging to them. They never received payment or any compensation for the lands. The United States bolstered this.....giving weapons men and war to hold stolen lands. Why shouldn't they be compensated for what was stolen to some measurement? I can see a valid point here. I am not saying I do not support Isreal and a right to live without fear of genocide.

His voting record sure shows it, over 150 Million in pork for his district.

Video is right on the money.

Just sounds like a Congressman doing what he was elected, by his district, to do!

No big deal to ask for them, even Perry stated, "I always get a bit of humor. He asks for earmarks for his district and then votes against the bill."

A 1000 videos like this can be posted (and are) on anyone....even you!

Simply one opinion, like yours, like mine. simply entertainment....to some people.

LOL.......that's all you've got? You're a Newt and Perry fan, do we need to start posting videos on them? There isn't enough bandwidth in Mingle to support just the videos on Newt's shortcomings and screw ups bud, let alone Perry's.

RP Fiscal Year 08 shows 0.9 percent of Earmarks for the year.....that he didn't vote for, LOL!!

I am not anti Ron Paul by any means, he has a good message.

I just do not think he can stand up to the vested interests.

The interests of the 1%.

He's been doing it for roughly 30 years now. I don't see that changing.

Right. I think we give the evil elite more power and credit than they deserve. They may have all the money, but they are few.

Don't be bribed, don't be bought, don't be intimidated, don't give in to threats or terrorism and we can easily win against the evil empire.

‘Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number,
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you—
Ye are many—they are few.’

—Percy Bysshe Shelly, The Mask of Anarchy

on this we absolutely agree...lol
