It is not just the media. All one has to do is look at the divisive rhetoric Obama has used while in office and the divisive rhetoric of the opposing side to same. The media is the tool through which the poison is desseminated. They have abandoned their responsibility as unbiased gatekeepers and instead are gossip columnists paid by the regime to carry its salt water to the slugs.

The vast majority of the American people are so unaware of not only their own history, but of current events, that they cannot come together on anything. Add to that willful ignorance, a financially and economically under-educated populous, the "isms" being used to divide the people of this country; and, the sad reality is that saving the Republic may well be impossible. (It makes me ill to admit this to myself.)

Sometimes when a structure's damage is beyond repair it must be allowed to fall before it can be rebuilt. The key will be rebuilding this Republic on a solid foundation of liberty rather than repressive elitism and tyranny by a powerful few. (Clue: Ron Paul's rEvolution)

FYI, Rand Paul is nothing like his father and has been just as much a "Good Republican" as the rest, so much for passing the torch from father to son
Not much separating the policies of Rand and Ron. In the Senate no one is closer to Ron Pauls policies than Rand. Yet you believe otherwise??? Doesn't surprise me.

yes there is always one or more posters on threads justifying the actions of the kings men no matter how intrusive.I suspect they are in the employ of the crown to utter such indefensible lies.

I joke with my wife that her ancestors were loyalists and that my ancestors either immediately or eventually fought or revolted against just about everyone that tried to conquer them. But, jokes aside, these people would be guaranteed loyalist redcoats.

Really? Is that why he did not endose his father but instead backs Mitt? Paulbots are a funny bunch, reality is something they simply ignore, must be a strange place to live.

NSA logs every phone call made anymore. Probably every tweet and facebook post now too. Or if need be will go in and tell your ISP to hand over the info so they don't have to reveal to the public how they actually obtained it. If somebody told me ten years ago drones would be monitoring US citizens over our own country I'd have said they were crazy. Now anyone who argues that it's not right is deemed crazy. This is how simply pathetic the ankle grabbers have become.

He didn't endorse Mitt, but said he is endorsing the "R" candidate. Big diff.
He also said his father was his first choice to back.

Sorry, but you seem to be the one distorting "reality" here. Should we now label you an Obamabot?

And why in the world would your gauge of truth be whether someone is arrested or not?

I would best classify him as someone who gets wood watching any documentaries about William Sherman.

of course the do legal search warrants and illeagl warrnts are not secret because they have to be declare such by a court which is open record.Then their are other searches which are legal and not requring warrants.Basically the post mkes little sense.
