Neocons, float in the middle of the road and eventually get run over.

doing it too, and more of it ... both the GOP/DEMS hate
Ron Paul That's a good enough reason alone to
vote for Dr. Paul

Out of control Military spending is both party's Achilles Heel -
something Neither side can defend, so they attack Dr. Paul.

Not to mention - Limbaugh has to answer to his evangelicals -
Rush can't have anyone interfering with their wars/religious crusades/or the rapture

Am no fan of either Paul or Huntsman, but Limbaugh still represents the current problem within the GOP of unelected, self-styled "kingmakers", who have agendas (and profit motives) of their own. Of course, last election Limbaugh didn't much care for McCain either, and look how that one turned out for "true conservatives".

on anti water boarding/torture. But Rush loved VP Palin

God I hope you never have to depend on medication that can be habit forming or you have to watch someone in your family suffer because of med addiction due to pain...At least he was able to beat it, that is more than can be said for a heck of lot of addicts.

isn't it a shame, you libs claim to be compassionate and open minded but you attack every chance you get. Legalizing drugs is something many beleive in, but let someone with views that differ from yours use pain meds or whatever and you can't wait to blast. I guess we know which party is really non judgemental and open minded and the first letter isn't D.

There's a difference between properly using pain meds and someone as hypocritical as Limbaugh is (his comments about drug abusers) improperly using them.

Limbaugh on Drugs

My wife has had rheumatoid arthritis for years and I'm sure is in worse pain daily than Rush ever was. No abuse whatsoever. He's weak and a coward - see his military record, or lack thereof.

Ron Paul knows that sometimes the truth is going to hurt bad!
Tells it like it is. No sugarcoating it, to make it look like a rose but smell like the crap it is.

Truth is not pretty all the time, like the delusional ignorant would like to think it is, to feel all good inside.

The guy is not lying to you just to get elected, like all the others standing on that stage. He tells you the truth, so you can be informed and an educated citizen of the most unique nation on earth.


Ron Paul is no Neocon!


Ron Paul - 2012
