    Gtech, what do you have to prove for this post?

    So because we show Bin laden videos on the news we support him?

    Tell me

    ohh yeah and obviously you are not aware of free press.

    awcguy,

    your argument has no substance. Reword it and try again. Do you believe RP should put this to rest, or should he come out of the closet?

    You did not answer my question, What do you prove by posting this?

    I believe he is a libertarian which you should read about them and answer your own question.

    Libertarians strongly oppose infringement of civil liberties such as restrictions on free expression (e.g., speech, press, or religious practice), prohibitions on voluntary association, or encroachments on persons or property. Some make an exception when the infringement is a result of due process to establish or punish criminal behavior. As such, libertarians oppose any type of censorship (i.e., claims of offensive speech), or pre-trial forfeiture of property (as is commonly seen in drug crime proceedings). Furthermore, most libertarians reject the distinction between political and commercial speech or association, a legal distinction often used to protect one type of activity and not the other from government intervention.

    Pose your question in a manner that makes sense, and I'll be happy to address your demands.

    Your opinions still do not dismiss the claim. Please try again.

    What do you gain by posting this in the DP forum?

    what facts do YOU have this claim is real?

    who do you support for president?

    Do you jump on every bandwagon?

    Gain? People should know about their candidate, or future candidate. With all the rp threads here, it seemed quite reasonable to add one more ;)

    I'm not making the claims, but I have covered quite a few things that have led to these very questions. "but, but, but we're just asking questions."

    Not ron paul. Gee, I wonder who you support?

    No. I never could get used to the "blame America first" bandwagon and the persistent trashing of America, defending terrorists, hatred for Jews and Israel, etc. How about you? Did you jump on these bandwagons?

    Don't bring a pellet gun to the OK Coral ;)

    Gtech is on record saying he supports Mike Huckabee. The guy who doesn't believe in evolution, and is known as "Tax Hike Mike".

    As opposed to a man who pretends to be a Christian and does believe in evolution. Oh, yea ;)

    Tax hike Mike? That's a new one for me. Is that like Dr. No?

    So it is your duty to bring RP news to us? So are you helping the RP community..negative press is still press.

    Ok, so you don't claim it but you support the claim by reposting it..

    So because I wanted to respond to a topic I support them, I must be new to this game of being on a forum..

    See you are creating a blame america first bandwagon

    Oh I get it.. you like old movies, where the cowboys blow smoke

    i hope you realize at some point that Huckabee is who the clinton-bush oligarchy wants you to vote for. do you really think a vocal Christian is going to make it to the white house? so say we nominate him and he goes up against Hillary.. i have a good feeling a large portion of America would not want to vote for an outspoken Christian. say hello to 4 years of hell.

    Oh, you can bet your bottom dollar I'm going to post it! If you want to come off with some credibility, you can go post the same thing in about every post in this forum. I don't see you taking issue when someone is trashing America, trashing Bush, etc.

    I believe they are solid questions based upon a growing number of "coincidences."

    I don't care if you are new or not.

    Ah, so it's my fault? Alrighty then.

    Nah, I prefer those movies where the guy is standing on a bridge, peeing on the head of another, and telling him it's just raining!

    Interesting you don't take issue with the message, just the messenger.

    I was not aware the Clintons had a preference in republican candidates.

    I'll be voting for the party. I like Huckabee, I also like most of the others. I believe most (except for one) actually "get it" when it comes to national security. That's my number one concern. Period.

    Bush is an outspoken Christian.

    It's virtually mandatory to get elected. The Clintons are also religious. Every president has been Christian (maybe one or two havn't been). They make it obvious because the religious people in America want someone in office that knows that our rights are derived from a God who actually exists. What is the moral foundation of an atheist?

    Romney loses points because if he can't see that the Bible contradicts the Book of Mormon, how can I trust him to know when the law or his actions contradict the Constitution?

    The great irony about the Paul detractors is that his domestic policy is Constitutional. His platform is consistent with the old right of the Republican party.

    People criticize Libertarianism, but it's really just a political philosophy centered on individual liberty. To be against libertarianism, would mean that someone doesn't support liberty or freedom.

    Which is their right, it just shouldn't be confused with the traditional, constitutional American position.

    I believe ONLY one gets it when it comes to national security. Why are we fighting a war on terror when our borders are left open?

    Also.. terror is a tactic, you can't wage war on a tactic.

    The agenda of the messenger is the issue


    The Message is clear, and I answered the message question some time ago.

    He is a libertarian and believes in freedoms even if you believe in Buddha.

    :D

    Correct, you wage war on the supporters of those tactics.
