Lets face it. Sarah gets airtime because of the tea bags. No one else wants her around.
BUT! there is hope for her. In the republican debates to come, the media will set her ona pedastal and tell us who we can vote for as usual.

I have to admit I'm enjoying Paul's recent comments, but I can't help but think of him as a trojan horse. I share the same anti-imperialist values but at the end of the day he's still a deregulation fundamentalist and his approach to race and other social issues is still firmly planted in the Goldwater/JBS camp. I can't forget that he was an un-indited co-conspirator in a case involving white-supremacist mercenaries and their attempt at over-throwing a democratically elected government in the Caribbean. This was back in the eighties, and it involved DAVID DUKE. He is not to be trusted.

Ron Paul would eliminate that Federal Reserve thing and that would be bad for the 'conomy n everyone knows it!!! That's why Mitt Romney is the Man!
He'll make it so more people can have Cable OR Satellite!
That's choice people!
Plus the Straw pole that Ron Paul won was because there was lots of kids who don't know crap about blowing up innocent people or fabricating money from thin air.

Disarray isn't even the word, "embarrassing" is the word. Newt Gingrich finishing in the top 4??? A guy from yesteryear like that? He was an elected Republican in the 1990's??? wtf? They STINK! Are today's young Republicans Newt Gingrich fans? That's pretty sad, if that's true. They're going nowhere.

Wait a second...Rick Santorum finished high? wtf? Is that sad, or what? This has got to be bad, even if you're a Republican. Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum finishing near the top? How about Bob Dole?

Where can I find information on this? So far, I have not found anything convincing. Here's what I found:

Appearing in a photo with someone doesn't translate into being guilty of other person's crimes. There might be a picture or two of me with Chinese Triad leaders and maybe they sort of like me for whatever reason, who knows. I might have even had dinner and drinks with them, it's possible; it doesn't make me a Triad or a supporter of whatever it is that they do.

No kidding Adam. How can Ron Paul consistently stand in opposition to American Empire and then involve himself in a coup attempt of a sovereign nation in the Caribbean?
The two positions are at odds with each other.
Methinks StandardAnt loves him some conspiracy theories a wee bit too much.

Hi,
I'm sorry. If you bear with me I will scan the articles. This was pre-interwebs and what not. Not trying to step on any toes, and it was wrong to throw this out without any documentation. No tin foil hats here, promise. Give me a day or two.

It would certainly be news to me if Ron Paul was involved in soliciting the overthrow of foreign governments. The one thing he seems to have a history of is being very consistent in his views, and doing something like that would be very inconsistent with his current positions.
