How come you libs ain't whining about gas at $3.50 under Obama? A little hypocritical, ain't it? Get ready, he won't let the pipeline in and it's going to $5 or $6 this summer and y'all won't say a word.

We have to choose the most electable candidate for the sake of the survival of this nation. And any one of these candidates would be better than Obama, who is out to destroy America with the full support of every single stupid person in this country. And there's a lot of stupid people - the whole democrat food-stamp nation. They want their free stuff. <br

@Rick G: Ron Paul is a libertarian, not a conservative. They have similar roots, but libertarians carry their belief in personal liberty into the theoretical extreme, whereas conservatives believe in a civil society that balances personal liberty with a common baseline of laws based on a shared morality.

And the Tea Party is neither one, right?

@CARBOB: Absolutely correct. You are one of the few who understand political conservatism. Ron Paul is the only true conservative in congress. Most modern day conservatives are 'social' conservatives spouting family values, moral values and religious beliefs. A true conservative does not want his beliefs and values to be subjected upon others nor does he want others beliefs and values subjected upon him. A true conservative values the rights of the individual above all else... [ More ]

No!! Just like Reagan was not a true Goldwater conservative, but a lot of people think so. There has never been anyone like Goldwater, period, regardless of what Nancy spoke about last week.
