Ahhhh, those wacky Ron Paul supporters. Part 58

Check this one out...a website removed Ron Paul from their candidates list. Rightfully so, of course. Of course, the RonPaulians got their thongs in a bunch over it. And this guy wrote this gem. CONSEQUENCES FOR OUR COUNTRY? No wonder they are in favor of a candidate who wants to legalize drugs.


Massie Ritsch,I'd like to point you to an interview Ron Paul gave with Neil Cavuto on Fox News March 11, 2008,

NC: "Sir, are you still running for President?"
RP: "Sure, sure."
NC: "Do you have any intention on dropping out?"
RP: "Not in the conventional sense. I continue to run to get as many votes and as many delegates."

I will not go into the moral implications of removing a candidate from the active list because "his remarks sounded remarkably like those parting words of every other Republican and Democratic candidate who has ended, suspended or otherwise ceased actively campaigning for president in 2008."

However, I urge you to take another look at what you are doing. In this day and age, a simple deletion from a webpage has significant consequences for the country. Thank you,Nathan D.

OpenSecrets.org is one of the best political websites online and is considered a reliable resource for information. That's why it's a bit disingenuous for them to say that a Presidential candidate has dropped out of the race when he has not. If they can't keep track of the handful of candidates still actively campaigning, how can one fully trust the facts and figures they're presenting?

Ron Paul is sooooooooooo wacky that he's the only one not in debt for $4M and in fact has about $8M to his name and is not in debt, having made the most money last Q than any other candidate with $20M.

A fiscally sound candidate surely equals wacky in MY book.

And whether drugs are legal or not is not going to make an addict out of you or me, well at least not me. I'm not sure you aren't already one.
