I don't mean this as an attack, but it seems that all the Ron Paul supporters have kind of a political tunnel vision and refuse to acknowledge other options.

I have seen people marching around campus with Ron Paul signs or writing "Paul '08" in chalk on the sidewalks since September.

People who support other candidates seem perfectly happy to accept that someone else might become president, and to be honest, I know nothing about him, and the fans are scaring me away from trying to learn.

My question is this: what makes his supporters so loyal? What has he done to earn it?

Again, I mean no offense.

And why did Condoleeza Rice LIE when she said the Clinton administration left no plan to attack Al Queda?

It's right here! This is a memo from counter-terrorism coordinator Richard Clark (anti-terrorism gov't expert since Reagan) to Condoleeza Rice on the strategy to attack Al Queda. It urgently requested a high level meeting to discuss Al Queda and included two attachments:

- A declassified Dec 2000 "Strategy for Eliminating the Threat from the Jighaidst Networks of al-Qida"
- A September 1998 "Pol-Mil Plan for al-Qida" which remains classified

Anyone who was paying attention when Reagan was in office could tell there was something wrong with him. He was obviously in secondary stages of Alzheimer's. Don't you feel in an alternate universe when Republicans credit him with achievements he obviously did not have the mental capacity to accomplish?

NOTE: BARNA IS A CHRISTIAN RESEARCH ORGANIZATION

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) -- Baptists have the highest divorce rate of any Christian denomination, and are more likely to get a divorce than atheists and agnostics, according to a national survey.

The survey conducted by Barna Research Group in Ventura, Calif., found that 29 percent of all adult Baptists have been through a divorce. Among Christian groups, only those who attend non-denominational Protestant churches were more likely to be divorced, with a 34 percent divorce rate.

Alabama, with a population of 4.3 million, has more than one million Southern Baptists and a majority of evangelical Protestants. The state ranks fourth nationally in divorce rates, behind Nevada, Tennessee and Arkansas, according to U.S. government statistics.

Right in front of him, on the White House lawn, he sees "The President Must Go" written in urine across the snow.

Well, old Bill is pretty ticked off. He storms into his security staff`s HQ, and yells "Somebody wrote a threat in the snow on the front damn lawn! And they wrote it in urine! Son-of-a-***** had to be standing right on the porch when he did it! Where were you guys?!"

The security guys stay silent and stare ashamedly at the floor.

Bill hollers "Well dammit, don`t just sit there! Get out and FIND OUT WHO DID IT! I want an answer, and I want it TONIGHT!"

The entire staff immediately jumps up and races for the exits. Later that evening, his chief security officer approaches him and says "Well Mr. President, we have some bad news and we have some really bad news. Which do you want first?"

Clinton says "Oh hell, give me the bad news first."

No, I'm not serious about this, but it does make me wonder about the double standard of those that want to bring Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld up on war crimes charges. Kerry, after all, admitted to Congress that he committed "attrocities".

Americans have the right and advantage of being armed – unlike the citizens of othe counties whose governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.
James Madison

The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, at last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.
Thomas Jefferson

Fireams stand next in importance of the Constitution itself. They are the American people’s liberty teeth and keystone under independence.
General Washington

If Jesus sat in congress in the congress today
Do you think he would vote the Republican way
would he vote to stop people from getting copmensation
from corporations who have done harm across the nation
would vote to stop people who need help from their debt
but not stop the rich and greedy who will take all they can get
do you think he would like bullying in his name
leave the judging to God could this be what he'd say?
What he perfer fighting to get all judges through
or would he think more important the health care that's due
Would he agree with not bringing up minimum wage or
would he think poor people would deserve a raise? Would he prefer to waste from our bodies a cell or would he choose to use it sick people get wel?
Do you think Jesus would belong to the NRA
O r would he like gun laws to help stop the killings today.
WHat Would Jesus Do, I am just asking?

Despite all attempts to demonize him over a BJ by resentful and hate filled Repubicans, Americans didn't buy it. Clinton left office with a 65% approval rating, the highest end-of-presidency rating of any President that came into office after World War II.

What do you think Bush will leave office with? Is the reason the Yahoo Republicans get so angry about Bill Clinton motivated by jealousy?

What does our U.S. Constitution say about using funds at the Federal level?

What should be funded with our tax dollars?

Certainly funding abortions is not one of them.

Funding special interest groups such as college funds for races is also not one of them either as the Constitution forbids racism and prejudism against people.

Financing foreign nations with our tax dollars is also not Constitutional. Giving foreign aid is different from policing a nation and forcing our government on them.

So what is the Federal government really supposed to finance besides our military?
