Ron Paul ad
I saw an Ron Paul ad on KCRG this morning. I want to bleach my eyes!
I have no idea how it will play here - I'm so against him, I can't be objective.
It seemed *very* libertarian, which may have some appeal in Iowa. I don't think he'll get many dem votes, though.
No mention of the Iraq war, either.
Has anyone else seen it?

1. I heard the end of one on the radio yesterday
unfortunately all I heard was the "I'm Ron Paul and I approved this ad". I'll keep an eye/ear out for more.

2. I hate this guy
I have a remote control, so i rarely watch commercials.

I did, however, have a great time arguing with his supporters outside the Jefferson-Jackson Dinner on Saturday.

By the way, I was messing with the Kucinich people outside as well. As you may already know, I am an equal opportunity offender.

Ron Paul people deserve to be offended.

3. You guys might appreciate this
Driving around town, my 14-year-old asks, "Mom, is there such a thing as a small Ron Paul sign?"

5. Has the Tancredo ad been played here?
I also have a remote and watch very little network so I haven't seen the Paul ad. But the Tancredo ad - OY Vey! Tom-Tom sounds like a true Chicken Little. If I had kids I'd be careful that they not see this ad. It may scare the crap out of them and surely give them a distorted picture of the world.

6. Someone link these ads to me!
I'm missing out on the fun ... down here there's a bunch of negative ads about Louisiana politicians, but nothing Presidential yet (though I'll be home soon enough to see them). I like the kooky stuff.

btw, I can respect libertarianism, but Ron Paul is an extremist with it.

11. All that's missing is a little girl plucking a daisy.
Anyone notice that Tom Tancredo not only has the same message as Steve King, but he also looks like King?

9. BEWARE OF THE HOODIE!
"If you see a person in a hooded sweatshirt and a backpack, shoot their ass," says Tom Tancredo. "The're probably a terrorist." American high school and college students watch out!

8. Bah. I had a "discussion" with a Ron Paul supporter at a Veterans Day parade Saturday.
We we're politely talking about issues. I'd ask a question and he'd stammer and avoid a clear answer. Everything was going fine until he said, "Dr. Paul has a lot of supporters in the Democrat Party".

:grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr:

First of all it's the DemocratIC Party. And secondly, we don't support him, we just happen to agree with him on the Iraq war.
Then I decided I better walk away before I ruin a perfectly good morning.

13. The Fred Thompson ads
Make me want to hurl. :puke: :puke: :puke:

"Our rights were given to us by God" Huh?

Last I checked we still had a United States Constitution, even though the Bushies have tried their best to dismantle it.

15. That "rights given to us by God" just makes me sick -
I guess God doesn't really care about the citizens of Saudi Arabia, Burma, China, or a whole bunch of other countries throughout the world where human rights abuses occur regularly, according to Thompson's view of things...

16. I don't believe God gave us the right to torture
I wonder what his stance is on water-boarding?

17. Ha...
I read somewhere that torture was supposed to be included in the sermon on the mount but Jesus' campaign people had it pulled.
