God Bless Ron Paul...Let Freedom Ring!
"Give me liberty or give me death!" -Patrick Henry- digglet08, on 09/02/2008, -6/+10The Henry quote sounded a little funny coming from a digg commenter. But I sort of agree about Paul.
- postrye, on 09/02/2008, -13/+6I believe you meant "Spaghetti bless Ron Paul"
- 55Test55, on 09/02/2008, -9/+15Hey ***** you, two of my friends died trying to bless Ron Paul.
- hamobu, on 09/02/2008, -18/+6"Ron Paul, the only Presidential candidate who truly understands what it means to be free..."
This statement makes no logical sense what so ever.- BotchaMcCoola, on 09/02/2008, -3/+1That is why your vote should not count. Sorry, but you walked into it.
- hamobu, on 09/02/2008, -3/+3Boy! You showed me!
- Uiaccsk, on 09/03/2008, -1/+3well, it DOES make sense. big government intruding in my everyday life = no freedom. small government acting within its guidelines set by the people = freedom. pretty simple stuff.
- hamobu, on 09/03/2008, -0/+2You got all that from :
"Ron Paul, the only Presidential candidate who truly understands what it means to be free..."
- heliox, on 09/02/2008, -7/+3I don't think he is a candidate.
- postermmxvicom, on 09/03/2008, -3/+2Methinks Sarah Palin understands freedom also.
- Parisjune, on 09/02/2008, -8/+78Watching it now live! Wish I was there.
Not taking the Obama & McCain pills! It's the Constitution or NOTHING!- NoCt1, on 09/02/2008, -2/+12True. Mccain and obama are bothing going to eff the constitution up. Hell one president has why should we start enforcing now? The next pres will abuse it also. Its all down to the lesser of two evils. oflips or mcwhiney.
- roxgod666, on 09/02/2008, -16/+2I took the Obama pills, and i gotta say it feels ***** good
- angryfirelord, on 09/02/2008, -1/+7Those pills are placebos. What Obama wants you to think and what he'll really do are two totally different things. Analyze his speeches more carefully; there isn't one government program that Obama doesn't want to expand or throw money at. You think the debt is bad now? Wait till Obama takes office, the debt is going to balloon like crazy.
- justz00t, on 09/02/2008, -0/+6Yeah well, watch out for the after effects that include symptoms like headaches, dollar weakness and moderate to severe loss of liberty.
- dafragsta, on 09/02/2008, -0/+5Like all drugs, they wear off. I want to see how he does in a debate. Something tells me his sharp deliveries will be not quite as sharp when it's not quite scripted.
- gandhii, on 09/02/2008, -0/+6I guess you haven't noticed when he changed from an anti-war president to a pro war on afghanistan, pakistan and Russia president.
- Cuchanu, on 09/03/2008, -0/+1@dafragsta: He had tons of debates already, just not with McCain. And something tells me that he wont have a big problem winning a debate with somebody who says he'll have to ask his staff what his position is on condom use in Africa.
@angryfirelord: I think you are exaggerating a lot. The list of things he wants to expand is a lot smaller than the list of things he has no plans on changing. And most people would agree that they are for worthy causes (which, like everything, is debatable).
@gandhii: Yep I lost some respect for him there. I understand trying to win the election by appealing to the moderates (people that don't pay attention), but there is certainly something to be said for refusing to bend the truth or change yourself to win. You have to respect Ron Paul for being a 'Maverick' in the truest sense of the word.
- Shiftgood, on 09/02/2008, -9/+2dude, ive been watching it all day.
what a ***** train-wreck.
- dylio, on 09/02/2008, -9/+72This is massive. Ron Paul 2012.

- MrSketch, on 09/02/2008, -0/+13I heard it was being covered on C-SPAN2.
- RossDuprey, on 09/02/2008, -2/+1TV? yea right... nothing about the rally for the republic will help the corporate stooges.

w00t Ohio!
- Harbinger67, on 09/02/2008, -0/+4Holy crap thanks for posting that link, I had no idea something like this existed.
- Ghoztt, on 09/02/2008, -5/+27I'm glad to see there are still people not giving up on Ron Paul being heard. I'm still voting for him.
Protest vote. - ironhide, on 09/02/2008, -6/+31I have too many differences of opinion with Paul's platform to support him, but I think this is still a good thing for the country. The two-party system has outlived it's usefulness.
- akhomestead, on 09/03/2008, -1/+2Have you read his book? It my explain why he feels certain ways.
- ironhide, on 09/03/2008, -1/+3I might take a look. I can tell you right now, my main problem is that he would let the states pass laws harmful against certain groups of people. I cannot in good conscience condone that. Laws like the ridiculous sodomy laws are a perfect example.
- akhomestead, on 09/03/2008, -0/+1ironhide
See I probably agree with you there but this also makes it so the federal government can't tell all the states that sodomy is illegal. I'm pro choice and ron paul is anything but, however, I respect his views that it's not mine, or his, or the federal gov. job to decide that. It's each state and communities job to decide. And if we had a small federal government the state would also know that votes like these have consequences like higher taxes to help families, and their health care. Because if a state makes it mandatory they should pay for it. - cswake, on 09/03/2008, -0/+1Plus the more decentralized a "bad" decision is, the better your odds of talking to, and convincing, the individuals who can change it.
- akhomestead, on 09/03/2008, -1/+2Have you read his book? It my explain why he feels certain ways.
- nwoantibody, on 09/02/2008, -15/+6Digg/nuke this ***** to the front page!
- homah, on 09/02/2008, -4/+30Even if you don't agree with everything Paul has to say, you will find this event interesting. There have been a lot of great speakers thus far -- Jesse Ventura just finished speaking. Also, Thomas Woods gave a great speech earlier. Hopefully someone puts it on youtube.
- hasslinthehoff, on 09/02/2008, -19/+12Who the hell is Ron Paul?
- Vanzetti, on 09/02/2008, -1/+6How could you have a registered digg account and not know that?
- hasslinthehoff, on 09/02/2008, -0/+4I'm kidding, because if Digg mentions of Ron Paul were votes, he'd win by a freakin' landslide. Sigh... didn't want to explain...
- schneidafunk, on 09/02/2008, -0/+2Who the ***** is Van Halen?

- brainscab, on 09/02/2008, -3/+14CNN link, the more people that watch here, the more likely they give more coverage to him in the future!
http://www.cnn.com/video/live/live.html?stream=str ...
I hope he mentions McCain by name.- Snakedal337, on 09/02/2008, -1/+10***** CNN, First they resize my browser, then they tell me I need to download a 5 mb file to watch? Screw that.
- Minarchian, on 09/03/2008, -0/+2Are you using Firefox?
I use the IE extension and switched to IE in FF...works ok now.

Yeah, good luck getting me to install that on my computer, Ted.

- Br3ach, on 09/02/2008, -4/+29Paul's attitude towards US citizens and government only make me think one thing:
People like McCain, really, truly, hate freedom.- Vanzetti, on 09/02/2008, -1/+8They love money!

- hamobu, on 09/02/2008, -0/+3That is bad! Keep your day job (unless you are a comedian)
- odigity, on 09/02/2008, -1/+1Bad joke, but he gets some points for clever recasting of an assumed context.
- hamobu, on 09/02/2008, -0/+3That is bad! Keep your day job (unless you are a comedian)
- trizzlelv, on 09/02/2008, -14/+9I truly do appreciate Ron Paul's message, but anyone who vehemently and openly denies evolution is not a credible public figure. Buried.
- nonsequitor, on 09/02/2008, -1/+3Wow, what a truly inane reason to bury an article. Not that it is uninformative, inaccurate, lame, or poorly disguised SPAM; but because you don't agree with the person the article is about. It's not even something mentioned in the article, nor does that effect his status as a public figure.
- BotchaMcCoola, on 09/02/2008, -2/+1Better state what you mean when you say "evolution". There are some very uniformed pinheads out there about it.
- Sfenton, on 09/02/2008, -15/+7This could possible be the largest gathering of Virgins EVER.
- odigity, on 09/02/2008, -1/+4Cause freedom isn't sexy?
Now, if you said that about a Huckabee rally... - BotchaMcCoola, on 09/02/2008, -1/+5ass virgins and glad about it - unlike you NeoCons and Libs.

http://www.campaignforliberty.com/
Watch there too! - hamobu, on 09/02/2008, -13/+5To all you libertarians out there. If free market can fix everything, than how come Ron Paul did not win the nomination.
- TheLastLyricist, on 09/02/2008, -2/+3Because there was a media blackout and he was cheated out of the opportunity to spread his message, unlike the other candidates.
- senatorpjt, on 09/02/2008, -2/+2Yeah, but the media shows what people want to watch. I've realized the free market will never work because it relies on the public and the public are idiots.
- mcsenget, on 09/02/2008, -1/+4If you had been listening to Governor Jesse Ventura's speech about the presidential debates excluding Ross Perot, you would begin to understand.
He also commented on the dumbing down of America.- Shiftgood, on 09/02/2008, -3/+2yeah we heard it.
we also heard him insinuate that 9-11 was an inside job.
and that Mexicans should be welcomed and not discriminated against and the borders should be kept open. (wait?! isnt that against RP?, i know it gets better)
and that he wants to run for 2012 president.
didnt say much about Ron Paul.
I respect Ron Paul a lot but this convention is laughable at best.
- Shiftgood, on 09/02/2008, -3/+2yeah we heard it.
- odigity, on 09/02/2008, -0/+2The election is not a free market. Quite the opposite.
- TheLastLyricist, on 09/02/2008, -2/+3Because there was a media blackout and he was cheated out of the opportunity to spread his message, unlike the other candidates.
- MCA2142, on 09/02/2008, -0/+13WTF.
Tucker Carlson?- Raisedshoulder, on 09/02/2008, -1/+7He is a big supporter or Ron Paul. He even voted for him when he ran for the Libertarian Party.
- algaeturd, on 09/02/2008, -0/+2Didn't John Stewart take the piss out of this joker on live television?
- ammundsen, on 09/02/2008, -0/+3There was something between the two of them.
I like Stewart and all but he's had McCain on before and he sure didnt stick it to him. Stewart's pointing out the absurdities of the establishment has boundaries.
- ammundsen, on 09/02/2008, -0/+3There was something between the two of them.
- freaktose, on 09/03/2008, -3/+0Agree. 12:30 - Intro: Tucker Carlson. Wow, wanting to vomit at the introduction is not a good start to any event. I don't hate Ron Paul, but this fool Tucker Carlson is enough to make me vomit in any direction.
- gplpark92, on 09/02/2008, -11/+5first post using chrome
- threepm, on 09/02/2008, -6/+5Is this another sequel to star wars?!
- whytheam, on 09/02/2008, -8/+2Ok, I'm a libertarian and I love Ron Paul and Bob Barr, but still. This is kinda scary.
- odigity, on 09/02/2008, -1/+5Wait... what?
- justz00t, on 09/02/2008, -2/+2Just what the hell kind of libertarian do you claim to be with that attitude?
- harrisbradley, on 09/02/2008, -2/+9If they made Ron Paul 2012 signs, I'd have one in my yard for 4 years.
- odigity, on 09/02/2008, -0/+2Make your own. That was one of the funnest parts of the grassroots campaign, witnessing everyone's creativity and attitude.
- godinster, on 09/03/2008, -2/+0Funnest isn't a word.
Stupid Ron Paul supporters :rolleyes:
- godinster, on 09/03/2008, -2/+0Funnest isn't a word.

- McCain4eva, on 09/02/2008, -5/+2Maybe next election guys, but by then it will be too late. Let's try to focus on looting the treasury while we still can. Investors are voting for McCain, Welfare rejects are voting for Obama
- tomjeff08, on 09/02/2008, -0/+2Freedom lovers are voting for neither.
- Minarchian, on 09/03/2008, -0/+2You didn't notice his sarcasm tag...it's right there...somewhere....
- tomjeff08, on 09/02/2008, -0/+2Freedom lovers are voting for neither.
- ironhide, on 09/02/2008, -2/+24I used to digg Paul stories down and mock his supporters but then realized that I don't have to support him but instead I support what they are trying to do. All it takes is for one third-party candidate to break through and then maybe we will get the government we deserve. There is no purpose in blind party loyalty.
- Enisity, on 09/02/2008, -7/+2So was DNC....
- mikelist, on 09/02/2008, -9/+2the big problem with conservativism is that the guiding principles make ethical behavior optional. the left at least has a pragmatic sympathy for people's problems, misguided or not. the conservative market view is sink or swim, but including the working class in that risk is presumptuous at best.
- odigity, on 09/02/2008, -1/+1Inaccurate.
- SouthsideIrish, on 09/02/2008, -0/+1And we don't? You believe government and all of our money can fix every problem. Well it can't. Were the people Louisana helped more by government, or groups like the Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity and even Walmart? We want to help people that have problems, just in a different way, with groups that are really going to help people.
- mikelist, on 09/04/2008, -0/+0you have no business deciding what i believe. for the record, i believe in accountability but i don't believe in punishing people for the kinds of indiscretions that even republicans are apt to make. i believe the 'noblisse oblige' that conservative theorists take for granted doesn't exist, except for those who actually believe in their own nobility. i don't believe that borrowing money is better than taxing for the same funds, especially since the taxpayers pay that amount plus interest when conservatives follow their instincts. face it, if you want infrastructure and services, taxes are better way to pay than borrowing from foreign interests. i do believe that there is a large range of problems that can ONLY be solved by the incessant pressure from governments, since publicly held corporations rarely do anything that minimizes their interest. although i do applaud wal-mart on thie gulf coast-katrina issue, they actually continue to have anti-community effects (forgot you believe in free market competition) such as advising employees that a democratic win will ruin their employer, and pressuring vendors to market products that are substandard to the vendors standards (buy some levis signature jeans or read about snapper/simplicity's experiences with wal-mart to see what i'm talking about). habitat for humanity is hard to speak against, but in my town (kalamazoo, mi) h4h has gone to court and taken lots from people who paid taxes on and improved or maintained vacant lots adjacent to their own.
i stand by my statements about conservatism, i have been consistently employed full time for the last 30+ years, so i'm not a welfare queen and i don't mind sharing the fruits of my labor with others who are less fortunate, i hunt and fish, so i'm no gun opponent, and i pay attention to whose policies are most beneficial to me, so i don't rely on sound-bite politics. i buy gas, am a veteran, have four productive offspring, only married once, not a christian ( i once was, and may again be, ya never know), but i don't need fear of hell to make me act charitably to my neighbor and be relatively resistant to dishonesty (a christian friend postulated that if you ever lied, you are a liar, and if you ever stole anything you are a thief, i have done both in times past, so i don't sit in judgement except for ongoing dishonesty or pretense) and i don't criticize people who are motivated by their religious beliefs except when their actions contradict jc's commentary or countenance cruelty. in short, i believe i have the experience to make observations about conservativism, at least as practiced in my lifetime.

In other words, he's an idiot. - aftern9ne, on 09/02/2008, -9/+7Ron Paul is the true embodiment of the Constitution.
That's why he proposed twice to amend the Constitution to include a ban on flag burning, supported a prohibition of ICBM silos in 2001 and 2002, and in 1979 proposed that all Iranian students in the US would not be eligible for student aid,

- Mothrog, on 09/03/2008, -0/+1Nothing is as amusing as the die hard Paulbots that have no ***** clue what the guy stands for. Barack Obama's politics are at the polar opposite of Ron Pau'sl.

- Snakedal337, on 09/02/2008, -2/+2Okay they need to stop the concert thats going on right now.... I don't need to sing about ron paul. Let me hear him speak already!
- algaeturd, on 09/02/2008, -1/+2They won't have to worry about press passes or media on the main floor getting in the way. Unfortunately, there will be no media coverage of this fine event. We'll be on our own to make sure the word gets out on what was said by whom.
- Dndlion, on 09/02/2008, -1/+6So funny. Why should the people who have positive comments about Ron Paul get off Digg? Who are you to say, Maabus, who gets to post comments? Just split the scene if you're not digging it. I hear the same thing against Huffington Post Diggs. What's up with that?
