Osama bin Laden rant....The terrorism we practice is of the commendable kind
for it is directed at the tyrants and the aggressors and enemies of Allah,
the tyrants, the traitors who commit acts of treason against their own countrys and their own faith and their own nation.
Terrorizing those and punishing them are necessary measures to straighten things and make them right.
Tyrants and oppressors who subject the Arab nation to aggression ought to be punished....

Yea, I saw that. It makes me mad that Guiliani uses 9/11 as a pole vault for his career.

I checked the MSNBC poll after the debate. Paul had 68% positive. The next closest was Huckabee with 15%. Ron Paul wins again!

What would we say here if China was doing this in our country or in the Gulf of Mexico? We would be objecting.

This Ron Paul is just an actor, if he's president it's not like he will be the one making the decisions.

I find Ron Paul and His representatives just as disgusting as any of the other republican candidates.
Using tragedies as a spring board. Having Pay to Posters making WAY TO MANY RON PAUL SUPPORT THREADS ON EVERYONE FORUM IMAGINABLE.
To me, they are all equally disgusting.

How about not voting for any Republican candidates?
I hate to say it, but we as U.S. citizens have a historical opportunity to change the situation in the world, change our reputation, and change our military stance. We do this by voting for the Democrat most likely to win, with an exception to Hillary Clinton as I know many are love/hate when it comes to her.
The reason is because we have a Democratic House, and a Democratic Senate. That would give us the triple threat, and all the good things that have been held off and pushed back for so long could come forth. Things like stem cell research, things like real healthcare for the people, not just those with insurance. Things like alternative energy, which is held off because profits to the oil companies is simply too important to the very core of our economy. It stinks rotten.
Do you realize if all the oil companies removed their investments into our country, that the economy would fall on itself worse than the Great Depression?
So you see, many stupid things got passed into law while Bush was President. Things like the Patriot act, people didn't like that, they said it took away freedoms and such. And things like attacking Iraq. Things like.. not raising the minimum wage at all. These things all passed into law because there were no checks and balances to stop them. It was a triple threat. So naturally, if we do the same thing with Democrats, we'd get SWEEPING reforms with the quickness no doubt..
Because the next person to actually enter the office of Presidency is going to realize just what kind of mess was left on the desk by the previous. The easier it is to remedy those problems and fix them the better, and the best way to do that is a monopoly on the government. While I know Ron Paul is a favorite here, I think it would be a mistake to vote that way because the republican vote is going to be divided alot as it is. In other words, I highly doubt he will actually get the Presidency, and is mainly raising awareness. So if we really, really, dont want Gulliani as next president, or God forbid, John Mccain (Draft anyone?), then we need to unify into a single base. In this moment of time, the Democratic candidate whomever it may end up being would be the smartest choice, IMO.
