He'll be whacked quicker than you can say Paul Wellstone. He's already being avoided by the msm and he hasn't even uttered a bad word about the phony-baloney parasite democracy, yet. That alone is a death wish. I mean, it's so obvious that for saying just one thing, all troops home, he'll be "suicided."

do englighten us.

to the earmark issue…
i agree that earmarked funds should end, they are an absolute black hole for taxpayer monies.

but, the piddly amounts hirschhorn ascribes to RP, are negligible in comparison to most if not all. micenutz.

You should hear what people are saying when America calls itself the Leader of the Free World! Bush makes me embarrassed to be American. Whenever I go to some diplomatic get-together or have to deal with people from other countries (especially the Europeans), my introduction as an American gets met with silence or something like "Oh, I'm sorry about that." Not like the smiles I got while Clinton was in office! You think it’s just the Iraqis who think America is hypocritical?

We must appear to the Iraquis to be such hypocrites that we have been encouraging them to abide by a constitutional government when we won't even abide by our own. I think Dr. Paul's "15 minutes of fame" are actually going to develop into at least 4 years of fame - a term as president of the United States. Electing him will send a immensely powerful message to Congress and special interests: the American public is tired of corruption and the wasteful political war between the left and right.
