[graywarrior]

7. Ha! that never fails to crack me up!

[woo me with science]

6. Ron Paul introduces bill to repeal indefinite detention section of NDAA.

I hope he stays in the race. No way he will ever get the nomination, but he forces some important conversations that would otherwise be completely ignored by the corporate candidates.

Ron Paul introduces bill to repeal section of NDAA
By Christine Mattice
Jan 19, 2012 in Politics

On Wednesday, Ron Paul introduced a bill to his House colleagues to repeal section 1021 of the NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act).
This section states the United States can indefinitely detain anyone—without charges or trial—who they believe has “substantially supported certain terrorist groups.”
Paul fears that this vague language could extend the military might to United States citizens.
Taking a break from campaigning for the GOP nomination, Paul defending his bill on the House floor and asked his colleagues to join him.
Paul said, in part:

Section 1021 provides for the possibility of the U.S. military acting as a kind of police force on U.S. soil, apprehending terror suspects, including Americans, and whisking them off to an undisclosed location indefinitely…This is precisely the kind of egregious distortion of justice that Americans have always ridiculed in so many dictatorships overseas.

He also took a swipe at Republican Senator Lindsay Graham (without naming him), by recalling his famous statement on the Senate floor about future detainees: “When they say, ‘I want my lawyer,’ you tell them, ‘Shut up. You don’t get a lawyer.’”
“Is this acceptable,” Paul asked his colleagues, “in someone who has taken an oath to uphold the Constitution?”
...


* For the alert happy: This is not an endorsement of Ron Paul, and I am disgusted that I even need to say that.

8. Stop being reasonable!

[Leopolds Ghost]

29. Hey, watch it!! Nopony's allowed to talk about those things.

That's why only fringe candidates bring them up.



But seriously, wouldn't it be nice to have Paul stay in the race in the race to force the mainstream candidates
to debate such issues, while siphoning off the Republican vote from [font color="#ff6699"]cancer[/font]?

cancer cancer cancer *cough* newt gingrich

([font color="#ff6699"]cancer[/font] has managed to "out-racist" all the other candidates, too... so nah, I can't get too worked up about Ron Paul)

[Lasher]

9. Oh good. Yet another Ron Paul OP.

This makes things so much better.

[graywarrior]

10. He's a whiskey sour to a heroin addict

[PCIntern]

11. He looks like Moe Howard, fer Crissake

sounds like a bad version of Jim Carrey...

k and r, BTW

[graywarrior]

13. He's one of my bad flashbacks

[Graybeard]

12. CurrentTV is ignoring Paul speech.

CNN, Fox and MSNBC are showing the Ron Paul concession speech. KO is totally ignoring him on his show.

[CTyankee]

14. That right eyebrow...

god, that bothers me. Why doesn't it reach over his eye? There's a reason they call it an eyebrow you know.

It gets on my nerves. Why am I forced to look at a man with a deformed eyebrow?

[graywarrior]

18. I think that eyebrow bothers me most after the whiney voice

[CTyankee]

[graywarrior]

[graywarrior]

24. Hahahahahahahahahahaha!

[Mosaic]

25. Ron Paul is a racist

Gingrich is a fascist
Willie is neocon
Santorum a theocrat

Wow, what a country! Each is a terrible, sad example of what we have become. A shadow of our former self, a broken nation. Anyone of those losers would be a disaster. Obama is the default winner, no doubt about it.

[Kablooie]

26. Rand Paul can.

[graywarrior]

30. Now there's a creepy man

[Vinca]

27. I'll never understand the attraction to Ron Paul.

All I can figure is those young people are in that phase of life where old age seems like it will never happen so there is no need for Social Security and Medicare. They're in for a shock.

[Eddie Haskell]

31. I can.

He's the only candidate who is against the US launching preemptive wars around the globe. You may not care about the issue, but as the grandfather of four young boys, I want to hear that message.
