Ron Paul Prefers Obama Over McCain

BIG Ron Paul signs still lit up in Berlin, NY today.

May 3, 2008

This news is hot off the press: Ron Paul prefers Obama over McCain and Clinton. I remember the media going after Ron Paul for being a racist. Then the media and the Clinton camp just poured it all on Obama in a racist way, accusing him of being an 'elitist' and talking darkly about uppity you-know-who's who won't keep their place, damn it. Then Reverend Wright went all wrong and the media happily flung him on top of Obama. This way, nothing important was discussed by anyone important. Instead, we were to understand that OBAMA is a racist as well as Ron Paul! So here we are: up is down and in is out, Welcome to the Outer Darkness where everything is a merged mirror.

Ron Paul Loves Obama

Even though Rep. Ron Paul has never officially ended his long shot presidential bid, he’s ready to weigh in on the three remaining major candidates for the White House.

In an interview on The Situation Room, Paul told Wolf Blitzer that endorsing Sen. John McCain, the Republican Party’s presumptive nominee, “would really confuse” his supporters “because they know we have a precise program and we have to defend that program.”

Having a Republican win the upcoming presidential election is “secondary” for Paul who is more interested in defending the Constitution, having the country go in what he considers the right direction, having a sound currency, and achieving balanced budgets. Paul parts ways with McCain over McCain’s support for the Iraq war, his approach to U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and his willingness to spend federal dollars to support military operations in Iraq.

Instead, Paul favors Sen. Barack Obama because of positions on foreign policy. “But that’s doesn’t mean that’s an endorsement,” Paul quickly added.

Paul recently released a new book titled “The Revolution: a Manifesto.” “Unfortunately, it is revolutionary to talk about obeying the Constitution,” Paul said of the book’s title.

I would just love to kiss Ron Paul today but he is, like myself, married and quite happily married. So I will say, 'Bravo! Bravo, you are a GREAT man!' For he is now rapidly becoming the Ross Perot of this election and lord knows, we need this very badly. Ron knows he won't win the election, his severe prescriptions for our monetary and fiscal health are too bitter a medicine. But like Obama, we hope Obama has figured this out, we are in grave, grave danger from out of control military spending and letting our entire State Department being hijacked by crazed Zionists seeking to destroy us all in WWIII.

We must stop them! I don't care about virtually anything else, in the end. If we don't stop them, America will either go bankrupt or start WWIII both of which are very, very bad. And we should be debating this! No sooner than I publish a story about the finances of our wars, Ron Paul pulls this rabbit out of his ten gallon hat. And to think, the media painted HIM as the 'racist' in the race!

Now that the 99.9% white-owned [and mainly Jewish owned] media has spent the last month painting Obama as the racist, all this is shattered by one visit from Dr. Paul. I am so grateful. It got so I couldn't endure even 5 minutes of the mainstream news. Will this news make the news?

HAHAHA. The Cone of Silence will be activated, I suppose! In the past, the good doctor also said he liked Kucinich and would be happy to see him be the Democratic candidate! The need to pretend Paul is a radical and dangerous flies in the face of the truth that he is actually quite generous with his feelings. The people attacking Kucinich and Obama are the people who want WWIII or domination of the earth via US military at our expense.

True, Obama has prostrated himself to these monsters in the hopes of winning this whacky election. But we all know and the Zionists DEFINITELY know that Obama won't be their craven slave. He will get control and then use it to be even handed, perhaps! That is a catastrophe for the warmongers which is why the media has backed ONLY warmongers in this election. I am stunned that CNN had Paul on a show where he could talk. Perhaps they want to paint him as a traitor to the Republicans?

I think this will backfire. To me, he wins resounding applause. He knows how to cut to the chase. So I hope the media runs more stories like this. BOTH the Republican and the Democratic parties are seeing full revolts this year. It gets very little media coverage. When Ron Paul and Huckabee got a quarter of the vote in Pennsylvania, the media bit their collective bee-stung lips in dismay. The voters were supposed to give up!

In my own community, I see LOTS of Ron Paul signs. Even some Huckabee signs. NOT ONE MC CAIN SIGN. None! And no Hillary or Obama signs, either. I think the Democrats are waiting to see who it is before putting up signs for this 'election'. But the durability of the Ron Paul signs is a warning shot: the conservatives are committed and increasingly angry. True, there is the 'me too!' conservatives who think a warmonger for President will be fun. This is due to no draft. Right now, the US can pay the families of the military dead many thousands and thousands of dollars to shut them up. And recruiting is done with criminals and aliens, not 'solid citizens'. But as the money runs out and it will, the ditto heads who cheer all this garbage will be the first to howl with rage.

The Ron Paul people have the wit to figure this out before bankruptcy! And they are a large enough group, if they end up voting for the least of the warmongers, Obama, they WILL swing this election. Unless we are scared of 'terrorists'. This is where we have to worry. Will Mossad or will even the radical Muslims, do this?

The chances that someone with an agenda will manufacture a stampede towards the warmongers is very, very high, nearly astronomically high. If Hillary is going to play the racism card in order to win over white working class people, you can bet the GOP will use the terrorism card to keep in power! Worse, the terrorists themselves want warmongers for President. The last thing they want is an end to these wars.

Bin Laden made this pretty clear: the Muslims MUST keep the US spending huge sums on military adventures. He said, 'We bankrupted Russia! We can certainly bankrupt America.' And so I hope nothing happens but I expect it to happen. The US is being herded like frightened cattle, into the slaughter house. We think, this is where we will find safety. This is why Ron Paul won't win anything any more than Obama or anyone but the two bloodiest, nastiest people seeking wars.

For Democrats, Instincts Differ on Economics

For all the similarities between the two Democrats, there is also a core thematic difference between them. Mrs. Clinton tends to favor narrowly focused programs, like the gas-tax holiday, that speak to specific voter concerns. By suspending the tax and replacing it with a new tax on oil companies, Mrs. Clinton told a rally in Hendersonville, N.C., on Friday, she was standing with “hard-pressed Americans who are trying to pay their gas bills.”

Mr. Obama, on the other hand, leans toward broader programs meant to help nearly all middle- and low-income families. At a steel factory in Northwest Indiana on Friday, Mr. Obama called the tax holiday a “gimmick” and said he instead favored a cut in the payroll tax, which finances Social Security, of up to $1,000 for middle-class households “to offset the costs not only of gas, but also of food.”

The dueling instincts do not explain all the differences between the two Democrats. They also disagree about a health-insurance mandate (Mrs. Clinton favors one) and the capital-gains tax (Mr. Obama has indicated he would raise it more than Mrs. Clinton would). Mr. Obama is open to increasing the amount of income subject to the Social Security payroll tax; Mrs. Clinton has been critical of that idea.

This article doesn't mention any real news or has any real analysis. Duh! HAHAHA. No. They never mention Volcker, a man who recently managed to break out of the deadly Cone of Silence. Barely. Like Ron Paul or President Carter, he is held up as a scare crow that will do nasty things like balance the budget or stop making Funny Money™ at the Federal Reserve. My enthusiasm for Obama rose greatly when he took in Volcker as his advisor.

Social Security: I am on a fixed income due to my husband's brain damage. My income has been HAMMERED by inflation. The fake inflation hikes we get amounts to pennies a year. I just got my 'earned income credit' today. All of $6. Whoopee. The last time I used fossil fuels to heat my home was...about three years ago. Now, the cost of diesel is shooting up and I use the tractor and my chainsaw to make firewood. All this costs a lot more, now. We are doing OK despite this only because I am still somewhat strong. But how many elderly are being destroyed?

We know that people are pawning everything they can. I see 'For Sale' signs, not political signs, in front yards. Attached to houses, boats, SUVs, riding mowers, you name it. EBay and Craig's List are doing hot business as people sell off their belongings. The market is filled with used goods and excess housing. People are taking on 'reverse mortgages' so when they die, their children inherit nothing. The rich, of course, pay no inheritance taxes so their property accumulation will rise and rise while the middle class bequeaths debts or nothing to their children. Over generations, this leads the US into looking like Mexico was in my youth.

All three candidates must play Santa Claus. Anyone who doesn't ends up like Ron Paul: the Grinch who can see that Santa Claus is a killer.

Still many days until the conventions, any of the four of these folks could become the next DC madam.
It all goes back to the most genius of the politicians of the 20th century:
Here are the rules:
1) It matters not who votes, but who counts the votes matters.
2) No man; no problem.
3) And of course from his forebearer the only serious question in a democracy:
Who, whom.
It is no secret that I supported and voted for Dr. Paul in his last presidential run and had the chance to vote for him again in the PA primary this year. The only thing about the doctor that I dislike is that he makes my cynicism less than 100% accurate.
He is running in his congressional district, unopposed. McCain backed a neocon challenger to Dr. Paul; said challenger received less than 30% of the vote. The dems didn't find a willing bellwhether this time around. Last time it was some relative of "Ol Blue Eyes." He might have broken 40%.
And now on an entirely different subject:
Roast Duck
Stabbed ( 1/8th to 1/4 of an inch) several hundred times with a 4 tined fork.
Soaked for hours in a marinade of:
Retsina Wine
Rosemary
Chervil
Tarragon
Sumac
Savory
Roasted in a slow oven until almost done,
then the oven is jumped to 475-500 for the last 8-10 minutes.
Stuffing: Two schools of thought; Stuffing Is Evil. If you believe that stuffing can cause BadThingsToHappen--- then put a cut orange or several cut lemons or apples or onions inside the cavity while the duck cooks and make your preferred stuffing in a pot. Discard the fruit or onions before serving.
If you prefer your stuffing to absorb some of the bird juices and your bird to absorb some of the stuffing flavours, then make a flavourful stuffing but use a tad less moisture than you would for turkey or chicken. ( Yes I know a tad is not scientific, and ducks are not uniform. For the supplier I use I can cut the moisture by about 1/3rd YMWV.)
Save the duck fat that comes out of all those thousands of little fork holes during cooking...it is the best frying fat in the world. Better than bacon grease, right up there with fresh leaf lard.
Save the giblets, bones, heavier drippings and the onions if you stuffed those into the bird instead of stuffing. Put them in a pot with 3 quarts of COLD water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for about 1.5 hours. Skim the fat, strain, discard the bones and onion. Voila Duck stock. Better than chicken stock for veggie soup, different than beef stock for French onion soup. I have not yet done a duck demi glacé but it should be no different than doing a veal demi glacé.
Duck ( so far ) in this country have not shown to harbour the salmonella that chickens "somehow" picked up. So WTSHTF, comes TEOTWAWKI, ducks is your friend, chickens is just another republican 5th column Down with the Chickens; Up The Duck.

CK, I have raised a number of different breeds of ducks including wild ducks not to mention geese. I love water fowl and the very best way to cook them is to stuff them with mushrooms and apples and oranges soaked in sugar. Then you set up a basting pan and put these birds on a spit in front of a good fire and turn the crank...in old days, small dogs were used in these wheels and they would run and turn the spit.

This way, all the drippings go into the pan! You ladle this onto the roasting duck or goose. Stick in some nutmeg and this is quite yummy. The stuffing is made from the drippings, of course, which are carmelized a bit from the fire. You add water and it dissolves again. The duck or goose is done when you can pull off the legs with a gentle twist of the hand.

Also, this method prevents the 'dry meat' thing that people dislike. I have cooked 45 lb turkey toms this way but have to have people help turn the spit. My husband once tried this on a half of a COW! It didn't work. heh. This was before he met me.

I'm looking with horror what's happening because it affects me directly (food and energy prices).
I'm wondering if the administration has considered the blow back in the homeland from the retreat from Iraq (which will happen, when I don't know). What happens in two to five years time when you start seeing IED's being used against homeland security by disaffected soldiers caught in the economic depression? Think about it there will be a lot of downsized soldiers (with experience of urban guerilla warfare) who will rage against the administration and some will take extreme action to express this in order to survive.

[CK]

@Paul: The closest the USA ever came to your scenario was the veteran's bonus marches at the end of Hoover's administration and the beginning of the Rooseveldt admin. Guerilla warfare requires that those trying to be guerillas can think for themselves. American's mostly can't. American's are very good at running with the herd, following whoever yells the loudest and tugging their forelocks to whoever has the hardest mouth.
@Elaine: Yours sounds delightful. I prefer a stuffing of cornbread, oysters or mussels and andouille with onions or shallots or leeks. Of course the duck must be roasted above the drippings catcher ( I left that out, usually I use one of those adjustable lifters to hold the duck above the pan bottom while it is cooking ). I did a duck a la lekvar once ( Cherries were out of season and I am just not much for orange glaze ). It was a bit sweet but interesting. Since I don't yet do spit cooking, I can only ladle the drippings about twice during the cooking in the oven. My own belief is that most folks cook duck at too high a temp for too long trying to drive out all the "grease" ... that's why I cook it at a lower temp for longer and then use the last ten minutes at supernova temp to crackle the skin. Of course letting it sit for 10 minutes after it comes out of the oven will allow the internal temp to come up another couple of degrees.
So now I am approaching 60 days with 0 credit card debt, the offers of 0% credit cards are beginning to clog the mailbox. I was retrospecting the other day and realized that I have had a credit card since 1965, started in college with a Mobil Gasoline card. 42+ years of debt and payments. It really is an incredible feeling to know that that is over.
Cinquo de Mayo tomorrow, thinking about doing sweetbreads for dinner.

Dear Elaine,

Like you, I watch very little TV news but I occasionally watch Lou Dobbs on CNN. I have been very surprised by his outright contempt for Obama. Does he really think the other candidates offer any better plans for the country? Clearly,he does not believe in his message of change, but change we must. I've decided that I'll either vote for Obama or I won't vote at all.

Thank you,
GMG

[Elaine Meinel Supkis]

-Dobbs is a racist. That is all. It blinds people to other realities.

Sad, too. Of course, our media is mostly owned by pro-free trade people. Lou Dobbs is allowed on the air but isn't heavily promoted in OTHER media, you notice, The NYT attacks him like he is a rabid dog. He should pay attention to Ron Paul and try to figure things out better.

[JSmith]

"For he is now rapidly becoming the Ross Perot of this election and lord knows, we need this very badly. Ron knows he won't win the election..."

But he can be a spoiler, like Rossper Oh was. Maybe. If he pulled enough general election votes to spoil. Question is, whose parade does he want to rain on?

"In my own community, I see LOTS of Ron Paul signs. Even some Huckabee signs."

None of those around her at all. Must be a rural thing.

[Elaine Meinel Supkis]

No signs where you are: black hole time.

[JSmith]

There are a few signs around, just not Paul or Huckabee signs. Those candidates never had a lot of traction around here in the first place. And it's a bit early yet for signs - the election isn't until November, believe it or not!

"...black hole time."

I perfer to think of it as sliding down the drain of failed candidacies - now they're a footnote to Chapter 53 of some future history book.

[Elaine Meinel Supkis]

Ron Paul can certainly be a 'spoiler' in this election.

[Moncler Billig]

Don't know what is wrong what is rite but i know that every one has there own point of view and same goes to this one

I just sent this post to a bunch of my friends as I agree with most of what you’re saying here and the way you’ve presented it is awesome.
