The Ron Paul Tea Party is Coming! The Ron Paul Tea Party is Coming!

On December 16th, 1773, American colonists dumped tea into the Boston Harbor to protest an
oppressive tax. This December 16th, American citizens will dump millions of dollars into the
Ron Paul presidential campaign to protest the oppressive

“Dollars flushed down the toilet”?

Like the trillions spent for the reckless war in Iraq, the decades-long-and-never-ending War on Drugs, the likewise never-to-end “War on Terror”, etc. etc. etc.? Yes, THOSE dollars were spent so wisely! Too bad this country was bankrupted in the process.

My income is not much above the poverty line, and yet I will be proudly making another donation to Ron Paul on December 16th. Now, if you really want to flush dollars down the toilet, do it for Hillary, Rudy, or Mitt — they will fish them out with glee, and might even come out cleaner for doing so.

“living-breathing embodiment of the Founding Fathers. Supposedly, he and he alone is faithful to their original intent, and how it is to be applied to 21st century problems”

Really, What prevents the other candidates from projecting themselves as “embodiments’ of the Founding fathers? And If we had stuck to the constitution (instead of sucking up to Israel, there would be no 21st century Problems in the first place.

Where are the ‘Joooooos’ in the second post? It just mentions Israel & even a school dropout would be able to make out the differences between Israel - a sovereign country with its own (usually selfish) interests & neutral american Jewish citizenry. The First 2 posts make some valid points. The third merely abuses - A Typical reaction of such low life like the Neo-cons, Zionists & naturally born crap like the “scrapiron” guy.

Today I will sell an engagement ring and wedding band I’ve had for awhile, the result of an engagement gone belly-up. The proceeds will go to the Ron Paul campaign on Dec. 16, the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party when another huge “money bomb” is set for Ron (http://www.ronpaul2008.com/), orchestrated entirely by independent volunteers (http://teaparty07.com/).

I could put the proceeds toward a new camera or toward my next vacation. I could invest it in a high-interest savings account. But what I really want most right now is to see Ron Paul pull an upset victory in a couple early primary states and have enough money to continue competitively in the next round of primaries.

I hope and rather expect that we will raise over $10 million for the Dec. 16 tea party. What a delicious shock wave that would send through the media who ignored him at first and through the other presidential campaigns, especially the ones who think they’ve got the nomination all sewed up.

I’m estimating $6 million for the Tea Party. That plus other fundraising should put Paul around $17 million for the fourth quarter. And here I remember thinking that his $12 million goal for the quarter was overambitious…

Yah, that half million in capital gains taxes I paid to the feds on our family owned and operated business was really soooo well spent by the federal government.

So, another couple grand “down the toilet” supporting a disciple of the Austrian economics school really is no sweat off my back, bro. I’ll consider it my “exit tax”.

By the way, the door won’t slam me in the arse, ’cause, unless you did a little bit of financial planning over a decade ago, it slammed in all your faces back in ‘97. Check the tax laws changes if you don’t know what I’m talking about.

Paul (or Panama) 2008!

More empty rhetoric from people who don’t understand the Constitution. Thank God that at least one candidate does.

Did you know that if we don’t elect Ron Paul the Federal Reserve is going to continue to spiral out of control? Do you know what that means?

It means that you’ll be throwing money away without having a choice because the value of the US dollar continues to decline. The Fed encourages you to invest (borrow) while they print more money. Your savings and buying power takes the hit and you don’t even know it.

If you’re not voting for Ron Paul to eliminate this theft of hard-earned wealth, then you’re the one throwing money down the toilet.

These Ron Paulers will save your ass. No need to mock them.

Only because you dumped your droppings here, Rononymous. Go take your crap somewhere else and keep throwing your money down the crapper, for all I care. I’ve tried warning your peeps, G. Jordan. There’s only so much common sense I can do for ya’ll Paul Reverists.
