Message: Entry: Ron Paul Rising Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/ron_paul_rising#7849 Post contents: So what is "Joe Populist" afraid of, that a good but not overwhelming showing of Ron Paul in NH will do to the antiwar movement? Ron Paul's candidacy is giving the antiwar movement credibility, since he is the only candidate with solid common sense reasons to be against the war. Who does Joe prefer? Kucinic with his semi-communist views? GOP Americans stand for fiscal and social conservatism, and a war is always the fiscally most irresponsible course of action a government can take. On the social mores that mainstream America holds dear, Ron Paul clearly stands out among the moral midgets in the field. And one can’t assign some of his ideas about taxation and monetary policy to the “fringe”, just because a majority of Americans have become addicted to the brain damaging cool-aid of government hand-outs and the abdication of personal responsibility. It is no accident that the main street media, which is so protective of - and interested in – big government, is trying to ignore him. I think we all will be pleasantly surprised by the results of the New Hampshire primary. And maybe then Joe Populist will become a supporter of this “fringe” candidate. Sent at: 2008 07 23
