America "Needs" Romney

[kpete]

We know, kids. We know.

He does the same thing to us.

[freethought]

1. Wow. These kids look thrilled.n/t

[The Genealogist]

2. Kid on the right: bored to sleep or reciting the Serenity Prayer?

And does the kid on the left even care about Romney? What is he, five or six?

[freethought]

3. He looks like he's rubbing his temples.

Something adults and kids do when they've got a headache.

4. No...

They need Ron Paul!

[SunsetDreams]

5. No America doesn't need Ron Paul

[Motown_Johnny]

8. Racist America may need Crazy Uncle Ron

but the rest of the country just needs him to go away.

26. Wrong forum

You won't find much love for Ron Paul here.

The Chinese put petrolium byproducts in their baby milk because the government institutions are not structurally sound enough to stop it. They put lead in children's toys for the same reason. They kill coal miners weekly from poor government oversight.

The Ron Paul model is the Chinese model.

Good luck with unlimited personal freedoms all of you Ron Paul fans. Just remember that corporations (legally defined as "people&quot get those unlimited "personal" freedoms as well.

Hope you enjoy that uninspected meat for dinner.

6. Howso?

Ron Paul wants to cut the Department of Education. Do you really think THAT is very functional. I could tell you tales of garbage I had to go through with it.

[SunsetDreams]

7. Are you responding to me?

Do you think America needs Ron Paul?

[SunsetDreams]

12. Let me be the first to tell you...

Fuck Ron Paul, and enjoy your stay

[FSogol]

13. Fuck Ron Paul.

[LoveMeLoveYou]

15. What is particularly that you can't stand about him?

I'm curious now. I consider myself for the most part either a centralist with varied left and right leanings instead of going, on an average level at least, for a political dichotomy of camping too much off into individual sides of a political spectrum. I think most out there have their good and bad.

This being said, can I ask the question... Is it simply because he's a Republican that you don't like him?

18. Where to start?

His racist white supremacist past which he barely tries to hide?
His hypocritical anti-war stance? (He supports contractor lead incursions into other countries, just not overt military ones.)
His belief that the greatest problem in the US was the Civil Rights Act?
His nutty financial ideas and goldbug leanings?

I can find principled Republicans to admire (though it is a massive stretch these days), but Ron Paul is special type of ass. While you nitwits taken in by his cult of personality think the left is scared of him, you couldn't be farther from the truth. Paul is quite inept at legislation. His goal is fundraising from rubes like you.

So, so long PPR and in closing, let me add: "Fuck Ron Paul and all of his sophomoric supporters."

21. Ron Paul is the low information voter's favorite candidate

As soon as they start learning more and thinking, they see Paul's hypocrisy and his failure to be an effective representative. Of course that's after they've emptied their bank accounts donating to him because the only thing Ron Paul is good at is raising money.

9. What?

[BootinUp]

22. lol

this was a hilarious thread

[Octafish]

10. If funded as it should be, the Department of Education can help rebuild the country.

Who knows? The Department of Education can help save the world.

When educated, the People can do anything.

Too bad Ron Paul doesn't know that.

[LoveMeLoveYou]

14. If done right, yes...

The problem is that education in this country is not done right and that's part of the problem. There needs to be an alternative that isn't within government control and truancy should be abolished in favor of more voluntary system of education that actually teaches more things that you could actually use. The divy up too many subjects, many of which aren't useful in the real world, between a short time span in the day. Just when you start to understand one subject, in what is often less than an hour in many public schools, they have you go to another. You often don't learn enough because not enough time is given to each.

23. you have no earthly idea

about education

[onethatcares]

25. ah contraire, education, at least here in Floriduh is being done right

the charter schools are scamming the taxpayers out of funds to provide educations to pupils they are allowed to

hand pick and are not required to teach to or test the FCAT on those same pupils but allow a public school to

get a low grade on it and the entire school becomes a failure.

The charter schools are also doing that time honored tradition of using taxpayer funded school buildings to teach

those handpicked students while collecting rent from the patsies that pay for their kids to attend said charter schools.

They are also charging the highest rents available for use of schools that are owned by seperate subsidaries of said

charter schools.

Yeah, the schools here are being done right, right wing screw everyone else, right.

16. Thanks Skinner.

[SunsetDreams]

17. Yes ty

[FSogol]

19. +1 n/t

[GoCubsGo]

20. Yes, we need him, alright.

We need him to constantly remind us why we ALL need to get out and vote against him and everyone else in his party in November. And, we need him remind us why we must work our asses off to convince everyone else we can to do the same.

Ditto for Ron Paul, Rick Scamtorum, and Newtie.

24. America needs Romney as much as women need a bald head!
