And Obama is running unchallenged? He was that good for the Dems money handlers? I do not see it.


Exactly Elder. That has continued to be my biggest complaint.
It takes a serious numbnut to gripe about Obama for 3 years as being terrible, decide to not have the party challenge him, declare the opposing party's candidates as worse than terrible, and then declare that you are proudly sticking with terrible this year.

Moderator: Would you help transitioning servicemen coming home from war if it meant expanding any government?

Paul: You know after WW2 the govt didnt do anything and we all did alright.

Newt: What about the GI bill?

Not just the GI Bill...

After WW2 is when the government got into the 30 year mortgage thing to help returning service members buy a house,
True

which is what kicked off the whole housing bubble.O
False

nce 30 year mortgages were available for service members, they quickly became the norm for everyone...


Effing Ron Paul is such a dumbass...



Any one else think Ron Paul will never be President but Rand Paul will?

It was a stupid question; almost as stupid as the answer. The one thing the government is for is security. Wars forced the draft on the nation. Providing a leg up for those lost years is hardly an expansion of government. The program worked to the good of the nation so it was kept even after the end of the draft. Service men or woman have earned a maturity that lets them excel in a college environment. What was a mistake was the following that programs for those who never earned anything; for political gain.

Any poll with ron paul in it, is invalid. They have hordes of his supporters on websites and forums dedicated to him. When they find a new poll with him they post the links and flock to skew the results.

The Fifties after the war was the peak of US power and influence compared to the rest of the civilized world and the GI bill and other things made it possible for more americans to get homes. Also there are good paying manufacturing jobs for many, many families to live on. It was the good ole days

So, what strategy shall I use when my ex wife attacks me for wanting an open marriage? This is designed to attck any support Newt might have with the evangelicals. Newt went on the offensive with semantics. After the debate was over his words were very transparent.

Note the evangelicals are the 500 pound gorilla in the Republicans living room. The issue is not whether Newt can be manipulated by pussy. Almost all men can be manipulated by pussy in some way. The evangelicals must choose between God and Satan (Newt or Mitt) on this issue. It will be interesting to watch the evangelicals vote. Their belief system is an either -or world. If Newt can bring them into the fold, then he is a formidable candidate. If he alienates then too much then he is not going to be the top man.

Newt has the same thoughts on love and marriage that you do Modeeb. I would think you would be his greatest supporter
