Our political salvation

Washington Post’s “On Faith” discussion drifted off into the spiritual realm of politics today asking if either Obama or McCain were really “The One” we’re looking for. David Waters says this election is about finding our messiah; In this presidential election, as in every presidential election, we’re all looking for The One who can lead […]

My peek into the Ron Paul Revolution

At the risk of attracting trolls, I thought I’d give my regular readers a look into my alter ego this week as a Ron Paul Revolutionary. It was completely inadvertent at first, but I decided to just go along. It began with the post I did on Saturday about the Ron Paul march and it […]

The Ron Paul Revolution in full swing

Ron Paulians filled Constitution Avenue this morning to bring the “Second Revolutionary War” to Washington. I’ll admit that it was a pretty big crowd, the website had over 15,000 people pledged to come, but it looked like less than half that many showed up, but it was fairly impressive nonetheless. Well, compared to their gathering […]

Rurik is a regular fountain today. He sends along an email report he got from a friend named Ferg who attended the Minnesota convention this weekend; Well, in my opinion the convention was a disaster.  Much anger and bitter feeling on many peoples part, we ended even more divided and more bitterly divided than we […]

Where did these people go to school?

I just popped by The Sniper to check on the antics of my battle buddy, Thus Spake Ortner, and found him dissembling some pseudo-intellectual IVAW wienie who, not surprisingly, reinterprets several historical moments (and uses some odd stripper metaphor) to justify his politics. It struck me that, speaking of people who think they’re smart, Ron […]

Paul/Obama links

My good buddy over at Jammie Wearing Fool caught a whiff of a RonPaulista “Digging” around with some of some of his posts and tracked him down to this bit of paulian antics (I’d post the link, but the host moved it almost as soon as LGF linked to it); I ran across a link […]

Ron Paul campaign sputters forward

Last month on April 15th, the Ron Paul spoke to supporters about the evils of “The Empire” and bathed in admiration and rock star treatment, but from his tone it sounded as if the campaign had ended. He signed autographs and shook hands with moon-eyed fans to cheers of “Run, Ron, Run”. Although he’s never […]

Diplomacy worked so well with Vietnam

Diplomacy worked so well with Vietnam

One of this last week’s commenters made the completely intellectually vacant point (while defending Ron Paul’s contention that we should withdraw inside our borders and depend on diplomacy instead of projecting our military power) that we’ve done so much better with our relationship with Vietnam using diplomacy than we did with the force of arms.
