Default Ron Paul "promotes anti-government principles"...WTF???
Yeah, that's what that HORSEFACE CNN talking head Dana Bash (egad is she fugly, imagine what that mare would look like without the warpaint - YIKES!) said about Ron Paul.

I must be really dense 'cause I've NEVER picked up on Dr. Paul saying or espousing any such thing. Would someone PLEASE point out to me where Dr. Paul "promotes anti-government principles"??

If liberty, freedom from SWAT team enforced collectivist coercion, strict constitutional limits on the power of the state, and national fiscal responsibility are "anti-government principles", then yeah... he is. Count me in too!

Surgery is the quickest method to remove a cancerous growth but is traumatic.

Starving a tumor is another method. Takes longer though and sometimes you only reduce its' size rather than eliminating it entirely.

I've been searching for the video where she says that, haven't found it yet, but this recent interview is a very good one - note where he laughs at her when she tries to pull her horseshit.

Here's the audience Dr. Paul was speaking about!

None of the other candidates can pack the house like this.

Ron Paul greeted by overflow crowd first day back in Iowa


DES MOINES, Iowa-- Ron Paul's first public event in Iowa since the release of a Des Moines Register poll putting him within striking distance of Mitt Romney was so packed that workers took down a dividing wall at the downtown Marriott's Salon D ballroom. Supporters as well as national political reporters lined up to cover the action.

"This is almost like a real rally!" the Texas congressman told the crowd at the event, which had been billed simply as a "whistlestop."

I just LOVE how they wrapped up the article, trying to make it appear that the crowds really had nothing to do with support from the caucus voters, but rather out-of-staters just there for the field trip or holiday circus show!

Assholes.

...Though many Iowans in the crowd said they planning to participate in Tuesday's caucuses, a good number of the Paul supporters on hand said they were from out of state: a Minnesota family on Christmas break; a busload of Cincinnati, Ohio high school students on a school trip. Others, such as Morales, were local students who can't participate in the caucuses because they're not Iowa residents or registered to vote in the state.
Just one man raised his hand when reporters asked if any of the first 20 seated attendees were from Iowa.

Well, you have to understand, the modern concept of government means constant, unwarranted monitoring and control of literally anything they can get in their radar. "Government principles" include wiretaps, indefinite detention of anyone considered an enemy of the gov't, control of the media, education and news, so YES I am effing glad we have a candidate who promotes anti-government principles!!! GO RON PAUL!!!

Whenever we hear the "anti-government" phrase we need to stop and think. There is a difference between being "anti-government" and "anti-government corruption". The people who are the beneficiaries of government corruption are the ones admonishing others for being "anti-government".

CALL THEM ON IT.

And don't forget many people confuse anti-govt with anti-society. If one is against govt control of healthcare, education, etc. they think you're against healthcare, education, etc. Call them on that too!!

It's a fine line. What is healthcare, anyway? The bad guys like to confuse true 'healthcare'- that is, hospitals and doctors treating people that are sick, with 'health insurance', which is nothing of the sort. So in the strictest sense I am for healthcare, but based on what most people are talking about when they say 'healthcare', I am opposed to it. When it comes to education, most people believe that the only type of education is publicly mandated schools, which I am totally opposed to. But the type of education that goes on in a forum like this- bring it on.

The bad guys are experts at using language to further their ends.

Buying insurance is a form of gambling where one is betting against one's self.
