Ron Paul's SORE LOSERS

unsung

I'm voting for Ron Paul because he believes in what I believe in and isn't just some sound-bite media blow boy.

I like my money, Ron Paul would help me keep it, Obama wants me to donate it to those who are lazy and won't work.

Ron Paul knows that illegal aliens should be punished and not rewarded for breaking our laws, Obama wants to give them the keys.

Bottom line is I will vote for Ron Paul because he is the only person worthy of my vote and the only one who wouldn't make me puke for doing so.

...but then I saw DriftingByTheStorm's post and I think what I was planning on saying has already been said... and I'm not even a Ron Paul supporter. The whole "lesser of two evils" thing really pisses me off though.

if anyone's deluded, it's you people. just what exactly do you think will be the result of your voting for ralph nader? in terms of election results. just wondering.

and i can not wait to hear the retort, which surely will begin with something to the effect of, "That is NOT what i meant..."

really,
because that is what you said.
:rolleyes:

dumbass, i have said already, many times in different posts, that i think obama IS principled and a good candidate. i'm not voting against my principles! maybe against YOUR deluded principles, but that's a different story.

i think ralph nader has some great ideas. let's encourage president obama to give him a cabinet position.

hey abook... has the nader camp gotten back to you about his large investments in war stocks and multinational companies on wall street... you know, the same ones he rails against?

i am serious, i am wondering if they got back to you yet...

I prefer that none of the "big 3" media whores get elected. I understand that isn't the reality. But I haven't voted for the "lesser of the evils" for quite some time. The major parties alway pit dumb against dumber and hope that we'll take that seriously. If you like Barry, then go for it. I'm sure he'll be happy to have your vote. But don't act like it is an enlightened vote and that the rest of us have our heads in the clouds. It is a compromise vote for the Democrat candidate.

everything in life is a compromise, i hate to break that to you. only young, idealistic, impractical people like yourselves believe otherwise. it's WONDERFUL to have ideals! hooray for ideals!! no one's criticizing that desire and drive. but at a certain point in our adult lives, we need to face reality, and make our choices accordingly.

i'd like to live in Taos, NM for instance, and survive off my art. but guess what? unless i'm willing to starve- and have my children starve, too- i need to come up with a PLAN B. it may not be Plan A, may not contain ALL of my dreams and desires, but if i'm smart and thoughtful and honest with myself, i can find a way to live my passions AND feed my children. it's not fucking rocket science. it's called growing up.

http://www.alternet.org/election08/77649/

and while THIS thread began as a poke at paultards, abook decided to have a meltdown all over it and turn it into a nader debate. so i've posted the article in its entirety here:

How is it that you interpreted Abook as having a meltdown?

i don't see any question, just a bunch of insults.
maybe you could quote your relevant question and repost, since it is burried somewhere in a slew of mindless garbage.

for the benefit of the paultards, i'll repeat my question: what do you hope the result will be in voting for nader?

Just so you know, when we taunt, degrade or otherwise talk down to others, our own behaviour actually hooks the same behaviour in others.

And conversely when we are coming from an above-board place, we hook similar behaviours in others.

I (and others) have already told you what time it is, and you bump this thread twice after the fact to keep fanning your own gas..

You've been educated, yet refuse to learn, or interpret reality correctly for that matter.

didn't someone already mention to get over yourself?
