October Update!

Greetings people!  I’m feeling a little off today but I haven’t posted much lately and want to hit on a few subjects.   First,  CLICK HERE for a link to a short compilation video of John Stossel’s report on “GW”.. No, No, not Bush.. “Global Warming”.  You need to share this with everyone you know especially if they have kids in school.  I think its disgusting they way kids are being brainwashed to think that they will die unless they listen to Al Gore.  Hard to grasp, I know.

This leads me to my next topic, “R.P.” by which I mean of course, Ross Perot.   Does anyone out there really think its a coincidence that Ron Paul shares his initials with Mr. Perot?   I spent all night last night laying in bed trying to come up with the true meaning of R.P.  – Republican Plant? 

Taken at face value, I have the following issues with Mr. Paul.

Let’s just say that I and many of my fellow conservatives generally love 90% of what he says about small govt., federalism, etc.  Its the other 10% where he loses us, talking about isolationist foreign policy and getting out of Iraq.  Also, he constantly repeats a diatribe about getting rid of all these govt. agencies which sounds great except I have heard him include the CIA and then in the next breath, he says that we could avoid war including the War on Terror with proper intelligence… hunh Ron?  but you just got rid of our intelligence gathering. 

Another big issue with him is his tendency to align himself with the 9-11 truthers who think GW blew up the WTC himself..  Failure to correct those whackjobs when they are so outspoken in his favor to me is unconscionable.

More important than all of that is that Ron Paul is this election cycle’s Ross Perot.  Lets not let this happen again.

While I’m at it, I need to take a shot at Mike Huckabee.  I had a friend of mine start telling me how wonderful good ole Huck is and that we should throw our support his way and try and help the movement..  Sheesh, gung ho eh?  Then I shared with him the following 3 weblinks,

Basically, you come away recognizing him for the Nanny-state lib that he has lurking beneath his Republican exterior. 

We don’t have a perfect candidate that is a true 100% conservative unfortunately.  Newt would have been my choice but seeing how he is out.. Fred is the closest thing we’ve got.. I encourage you R.P. supporters to really consider some of the ramifications of Paul’s simplistic rhetoric and recognize that he is in large part just a crackpot and that the last R.P. got us Slick Willie.  That in itself, should snap you back to reality. 

Unless somthing big happens, Thompson is the go to guy for now.
