    Here is you, again, making my main point for me. Here you are supporting Ron Paul (a limited government, low taxes guy) but in another thread; you are supportive of Chavez nationalizing the oil industry. So, again, you are either not actually supporting Paul (just like his trutherism) or you are supporting a candidate that guarantees a republican defeat in 2008. Which goes back to my original point in this thread. You have shown it more tha a few times, here.

    I really think its time to be genuine here. Is it Paul's trutherism that attracts you? Or is it a republican defeat in 2008? Personally, I think the choice is clear - taking an aggregrate of all your posts - but please, do tell us which you lean towards.

    The pussification of the American man. What happened to those hard working americans that serverd as an inspiration for those in the world who were fighting against big state socialism?

    "oh no, protect us from the... evil!". There are two kind of socialists these days: those who want the government to protect them from the "evil" millionaires and those who want protection from the "evil" terrorists.

    Both look like hysterical pussified man with no self-respect. 3000 died in 9/11. Big deal. It's time for you guys to grow some balls and take your country back. The terrorists won the moment you changed your life because of them.

    Chavez being a libertarian in re his nation's oil would essentially mean allowing outside oil companies to continue to exploit his countires resources (why should he continue to let his country be robbed by them, the IMF, and the World Bank?). Ron Paul OTOH, is in the US trying to put a leash on the federal government's power. If you look at the people who founded the US, they were not for the Leviathan government the US has today, but they opposed monopolies and the like...so it's not black and white, and politics serve the people not the other way around.

    A) its newsweek B) no one really cares about poll numbers of a man that cannot be re-elected...unless of course it is you and you are still stretching trying to find a reason to impeach the guy....I guess the fact that the US army sent to war by congress and the pres are not enough to impeach him, since so many dems voted to kill so many of your buds...

    It will be interesting to see how some of the more reliable and respected poll numbers turn out over the next month.

    Currently:
    • Quinnipiac shows Giuliani in the #1 spot with an 8 point lead.
    • Cook/RT Strategies shows Giuliani in the #1 spot with a 7 point lead.
    • Rasmussen shows Giuliani in the #1 spot with a 16 point lead.
    • NBC/WSJ shows Giuliani in the #1 spot with an 11 point lead.
    • Pew Research shows Giuliani in the #1 spot with a 9 point lead.

    In the national election, Newsweek is the only pollster to show Hillary beating Rudy. :rolleyes:
