Remember the phrase. This author believes it is a name we will be hearing &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;alot&lt;/span&gt; more of in the world of politics from this point forward. Why? The rapid growth of the campaign of Texas Congressman Dr. Ron Paul.  Last week saw a movement go from the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Internet&lt;/span&gt; to the street in large part due to the social networking site. Dr Paul saw a huge bump in visibility in states like PA, NJ, NH, and Ohio just to name a few. The effort of the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;meetup&lt;/span&gt; groups supporting Paul were busy from the early hours in the morning on July third and worked through the night hanging signs all over the place in major cities like Philly, Houston and Chicago. The hundreds of thousands of people who flocked to the Jersey Shore this weekend were treated to Ron Paul Revolution signs hanging over the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Atlantic&lt;/span&gt; City Expressway. Small towns in Ohio, Oklahoma, Maine, and California saw the first &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;political&lt;/span&gt; lawn signs spring up. The name on the signs: Ron Paul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After announcing on "This Week with George &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Snufalupagus&lt;/span&gt;" that he had 2.4 million cash on hand ( Third among Republicans) with still more time before official second quarter reporting, it is becoming clear Paul can be considered second &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;tier&lt;/span&gt; no more. The movement clearly hit the face of Americans on Independence Day as thousands of Paul supporters converged on Celebrations across the country to hand out &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;fliers&lt;/span&gt; and web site links to picnic goers and fireworks viewers everywhere.  "Google Ron Paul " bumper stickers are &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;beginning&lt;/span&gt; to appear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rewards are beginning to come in for the thousands of Paul supporters who view their candidate as the last chance for a free America. A straw poll in Iowa had Paul winning 65% of the vote. A second place finish in Georgia. An appearance at Freedom Fest in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;Las&lt;/span&gt; Vegas that had &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;Paulites&lt;/span&gt; outnumbering prostitutes. None of these events took place on the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Internet&lt;/span&gt;. Maybe it was the work of "evildoers", or garden gnomes sprung to life when no one was looking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paul supporters are quick to point out that their candidate does not get his just due attention from the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;mainstream&lt;/span&gt; media and I would tend to agree. They avow they are more than just 9/11 truth and IRS haters, and only time will tell. But there is one thing I &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; hear anyone mentioning trough all of the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;Spammer&lt;/span&gt;/&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;Diggdown&lt;/span&gt;/Conspiracy Theory/&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;NWO&lt;/span&gt; nonsense that Paul opponents love to blither on endlessly about: Where are all the lawn signs for ANY OTHER CANDIDATE!!!! No other candidate is drawing ANY VISIBLE GRASSROOTS SUPPORT AT ALL. This comes in an election where a woman will run for the first time. An &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;African&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;American&lt;/span&gt; will run for the first time . A &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;cross dressing&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"&gt;neo&lt;/span&gt; con war monger criminal hateful &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;racist&lt;/span&gt; murderer will run for the 26789&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; time. WHERE ARE ALL THESE PEOPLE FROM THESE SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS WE HAVE BEEN TOLD WE FIT SO CONVENIENTLY INTO??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The entire political process has changed. No longer will the couch potato who gets his news passively be the norm. People have access to information and a desire to learn. Welcome to education. The numbers &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; lie. Freedom is popular.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

She is calling her proposal new, because it would have to be since the last one was shot down, but yes it is essentially the same old universal health care plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is another clear example of the lean towards socialism by the Gang from Jackassland, in particular their lead candidate. Hillary is calling for universal health care. She is not trying to disguise it. This should be no surprise to anyone who has followed her career. This is another spoke in the socialist wheel that is her platform. Opponents and critics have painted her as sinister and cold. I truly believe her heart is in the right place and she believes these socialist agendas are what is right for this country. She just doesn't call it socialism. Just like the Republicans don't call their platform Fascist Dictatorship but that's what we've got.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What exactly does "It takes a village to raise a child" mean. Sounds like "The government knows more about your kids than you do" to me. How about this one for you George Orwell fans, taken right from Hillary's website: "When Hillary is in the White House , no citizen will be invisible to the President of The United States". Gives me the creeps just writing it. When will these people in Washington realize all we want them to do is leave us alone. The government will not fix health care. They will further its ruin. They have been involved in health care for 40 years and have done nothing to help at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In New Jersey we have some odd insurance issues, not with health care but primarily auto insurance is what I will use to make this point. When the Government got involved in regulating the Auto Insurance industry in New Jersey , the Insurance companies didn't benefit, the insurance agents didn't benefit and the insurance consumer sure as hell didn't benefit. The only people who benefited were the people in Trenton who got jobs sorting through all the government red tape. The government wrecks everything they get involved with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not the least of the problems with all these socialist platforms is that we are dead broke and can't afford any of the proposed health care plans thrown around as debate material from the guys that run for stuff. All this is is a bunch of talk to make for campaigning. Wish we had a candidate who was against the war and wouldn't spend every last penny we had. Who is Ron Paul anyway?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

After Rudy Giuliani and John McCain abstained from taking part in the debate that was held Saturday, The Iowans For Tax Relief decided not to invite outsider til now Ron Paul. In a move that backfired just about as badly as anything the GOP has tried to pull in the last 7 years, the dismissal of Paul generated a response from his supporters that was heard loud and clear in Iowa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the conclusion of the debate that was cosponsored by the Iowan Christian Alliance, Rep Paul addressed more than a thousand supporters just a few feet away at Hyvee Hall. According to supporters who numbered too many to get into the thousand seat capacity arena and remained outside, cheers could be heard routinely throughout the hour long speech by Paul. Not the same could be said for the responses given from the much more subdued crowd of around 600 at the debate earlier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This brings us again to the Slaves to Jekyll Island and their inability to do absolutely anything right.Even cheat. In what would certainly have gone on as an unnoticed event across the country, the GOP in Iowa tried to marginalize Paul to protect their interests. They came across as sinister and incompetent and created a forum for Paul to talk for hours while looking like the classy good guy. This clips will be viewed a million times or more by the time the caucus in Iowa comes around.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paul supporters will view this as sweet justice, and well it may be. But it also should sound an alarm to the GOP that not only are the current crop of candidates other than Paul not generating any positive emotion at all, they are being routinely exposed as the war interest sellouts that they are. The GOP needs to rethink itself immediately and get behind Paul or they will not only lose this election in 2008, they may very well lose their status as a legitimate political party.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

The curtain was lifted on the Dictatorship that The Administration of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Devastation&lt;/span&gt; has been hiding so well over the years last week when it came time to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;discuss&lt;/span&gt; the refusal of the Vice President to comply with the House &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Committee&lt;/span&gt; on Oversight and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Government&lt;/span&gt; Accountability.

"Nothing to see here, move along people". When I discuss this issue with people every one says the same thing, "How can He get away with that?". Simple. We let him. The weakness and mediocrity we have elected to the Legislative branch has just rolled over. The lawmakers have no respect for the law, or at least lack the courage to demand it's &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;enforcement&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it any wonder then that we see John McCain attempting to rig meaningless debates. How about Giuliani? Will a week go by when on of his campaigners doesn't commit a felony?. The condition of the Republican party is symptomatic of it' s leadership. They are a gang of criminals being lead by even bigger criminals. In a presidential campaign that holds so much in the balance, there is no telling what these guys wont do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This week we have already &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;seen&lt;/span&gt; emergency programs being tested where the postal carriers have to deliver medications in the event we are all left "housebound" by a nuclear emergency.&lt;br /&gt;Starting to get nervous yet? To think that this administration woulds not attempt a False Flag nuclear attack on this country is as naive as thinking the troops are coming home. This administration is a dictatorship and they WILL have it their way. It is up to the Republican Party to admit their mistakes, lead the impeachment process of Bush and Cheney or be considered &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;accomplices&lt;/span&gt;. This includes Texas Rep Dr Ron Paul. I can no longer support any member of congress who has not filed impeachment papers against the Vice President.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do believe there are a few good members of the GOP left but the time has come to leave the party. Have courage, the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;Internet&lt;/span&gt; will change things for the independent candidate. It is not impossible for a third party candidate anymore. I will end with this simple message for Ron Paul: Mike &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;Bloomberg&lt;/span&gt; Needs Friends!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Home of the Brave?</title><content type='html'>We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thomas Jefferson was a young man when he wrote those words. One wonders if the tone would be the same had he been alive long enough for the dragon of cynicism to roast away his spirit. For if a man would bestow upon a nation the rights to freedom as a divine gift, there must be some acceptance of a devine creator. How hard it is to hold on to that belief the longer we experience the pain and agony that can be daily life. In a society that is divided into two clubhouses, one welfare, one warfare , I think the question should be "do we still desire to be free?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our reliance and trust on the mass media for information has contributed much to the dumbing down of our nation, and free men must be educated. For the man who does not know his rights will surely have them abused by the state. All one has to do is open a history book for verification of this. It seems we are content to let information about our country come to us passively, through a box, the controlling interests of which we don't even know have our nations best interest first in their hearts. An hour or so spent taking an active approach towards gathering information will reveal that we are without a doubt a police state well on our way to a fascist dictatorship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A police state is often disguised as a free society with the presence of the controlling body needed for the good of the order. Think of it this way. When going about the course of your pursuit of happiness in this great land of ours what are the basic things you need to to do? You need to have a home. You need to earn money. You need to educate your children. You need to protect yourself against those who would do you harm. Try doing any of those things without this government knowing about it. You can not by a house without permission from the government. You can not legally be married without the permission of the government. You can not open a business without the permission of the government. You can not buy a weapon without the permission of the government. You can not drive a car without the permission of the government. Are we catching on yet? Seems like the government is exercising a lot of authority that was originally granted to us from God. At least according to the young Mr Jefferson. That begs a question: if our freedoms come from God what happens when know one believes in God anymore?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Winston Churchill said that when fascism comes to the United States it will be draped in a flag and carrying a cross. This statement eerily reminds us of the Patriot Act. The Patriot Act is the biggest assault on liberty in the History of this nation. And not even the Congress that passed it read it. Does this sound like a nation willing to pay the price for liberty? We have become a laughable disgrace to our forefathers. Elections are now routinely won with the wedge issue of abortion and the right wing pro-lifers. One look into any GOP pro-life candidate with the exception of Ron Paul will reveal campaign contributions from war mongering defense contractors throughout their entire political careers. Because if the military industrial complex aren't the ones backing you , you aren't getting the air time to get elected. Disgusting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The assault on our freedoms to not end here. The blatant slavery system that is the Federal Reserve System and The IRS is nothing more than the second plank in the communist manifesto. The only reason this has gone on so long is that the same people robbing us our the same people deciding what gets on TV. Several people last year successfully defended themselves in court against the illegal income tax and won. Didn't catch that on Nightline did ya? It only gets worse. The illegal actions of this government have allowed them to remove our rights to due process of law. We cant even fight them if we chose to. But don't worry we wont. Gotta catch "24" before we get dressed to go to our night jobs.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

The surprise is not really the support for Paul, who has grown very popular since taking on the Neo-Conservative movement in congress. His message of limited government and free markets is sure to play well with young voters, but the level at which Ron Paul is performing in polls has some folks crying foul. For every pro Paul comment on the web there is someone else claiming the support is nothing but spam. But lets take an objective look at the facts shall we.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most glaring example that this support for Dr Paul is real is the fact that "Ron Paul" is one of the most searched terms on Google. Search boxes cant be spammed. Think of the money Google would lose if they could. Secondly, what do the nay sayers make of the 10,000 Ron Paul Meetup members. Were their beings spammed here by some force of nature? How about the fact that the CNN poll after the last Republican debate forced voters to weigh in by comment. After 90 minutes their were 184 comments. 178 were Pro Ron Paul. CNN then took the message board down. Luckily people were able to copy the file before it was deleted. Full paragraph comments from voters with insightful commentary about the debate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cries continue to mount from the remaining GOP candidates about the spamming done in Pauls behalf. This begs one question: Where are all the spammers for the other guys. In one poll on ABC John McCain had 17 votes. Don't his own grandkids vote for him? Where are all the people singing the praises of Giuliani and Romney? What these clowns would have us believe to be spam is actually passion for a candidate who's history and message deserve such passion. Tell them that is what politics is all about. The loudest voice always gets heard.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

But he still wont get the chance to face his opponents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The campaign headquarters announced today that Paul will hold a rally at The Iowa Event Center's &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Hyvee&lt;/span&gt; Hall to begin immediately following the GOP debate. The announcement came as a great boost to the tens of thousands of grassroots Paul supporters who flooded officials with emails , phone calls , and at last count at least 17 different petitions. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Alycia&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Martelli&lt;/span&gt;, a business owner and Paul supporter from New Jersey said " It was such a blatant disregard for the voters. Even if I didn't support Ron Paul, I mean how can the guy who has won the Friend of the Taxpayer award 10 times not be invited to a debate sponsored by a group for tax relief. It was just an obvious attempt to stop his momentum."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whether or not you agree with Paul's stance on the issues, and even if you are tired of him dominating your &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;internet&lt;/span&gt; news feeds, you have to admit this looks bad for the GOP. After some snooping into the background of the Iowans for Tax Relief founder Ed &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Faisor&lt;/span&gt;, it was discovered that he is a John &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Mccain&lt;/span&gt; campaign organizer. McCain had decided to skip this one weeks ago.&lt;br /&gt;It wasn't until later after not &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;receiving&lt;/span&gt; an invitation that Paul's campaign contacted debate organizers to see if perhaps theirs had been lost in the mail. Much to their surprise he was told he would not be getting an invitation because he was not welcome. Very odd for a person who &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;introduced&lt;/span&gt; legislation to abolish the Federal Reserve and with it the IRS. Those sound like taxpayers friendly ideas. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;HMMMMMM&lt;/span&gt;?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At least Paul will have a chance to be heard by his supporters who showed so much effort on his behalf. I wonder where all the Giuliani supporters are. Oh &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;that's&lt;/span&gt; right. They're in Jail.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Nothing more than a few businessmen and a few civil servants doing a side deal that would bankrupt generations and end the Sovereignty of a once proud people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately their does not seem to be anyone capable of ending this mess since those charged with outlawing this process are the very ones profiting by it. Anyone starting to catch on? The one man who seems to be the exception to the gang of 535 is Tex Rep Dr Ron Paul. Maybe because Paul had a distinguished career as a doctor before entering politics he didn't have the need to accept such bribes. In fact in over 30 years in politics he has only accepted 400,000 dollars in PAC money. Unfortunately the list of good guys ends right there. Paul also sells his votes to his contributors, don't get me wrong , but 99.4 % of his campaign earnings in his career have come from individual contributors like you and me. Kinda sounds better doesn't it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The list goes on and on with defense contractors dominating the republican side and labor unions dominating the democrat side, and pharmaceutical companies lining the pockets on both sides of the isle. Unfortunately it does not end there. The Presidential campaigns have become carnivals for sale to the highest bidder. The Judicial branch is ripe with conflict of interest and The treasury department has been replaced with a private corporation 80 years ago. Forget buying votes, They have flat out taken over. Any candidate that dares make mention of any of this thievery is silenced immediately. This year we actually have a candidate from both parties that is trying to expose this corruption. Mike Gravel for the Democrats and Ron Paul for the republicans. Try catching a glimpse of them anywhere on the mainstream media. Thankfully we have the Internet to do our own research. They have money. We have time. We all need to look into who puts these folks into office a little more closely.&lt;br /&gt;Learn more about this author, &lt;a title="About Me: John Gottschall" href="http://www.helium.com/user/show/231761"&gt;John Gottschall&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

In what can only be seen as the dumbest move yet, and between these  guys and the Gang from &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Jackassland&lt;/span&gt; this political season has seen some &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;doozies&lt;/span&gt;, The Iowa Debate scheduled for June 30&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; and sponsored by the Iowa Taxpayer &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Relief&lt;/span&gt; Association has declared Ron Paul unwelcome. Huh?...Wait. What? &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;That's&lt;/span&gt; right , the very same Ron Paul who has won The National Taxpayers Union award TEN straight years.Yes TEN straight years. The very same Congressman Ron Paul who has NEVER voted to raise taxes.Does this seem to make any sense at all? This is like saying Babe Ruth is unwelcome at Yankee Stadium. Not only does Ron Paul support the anti -tax movement in congress, HE IS THE ANTI TAX MOVEMENT IN CONGRESS!!!!!!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is like a badly scripted pro &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;wraslin&lt;/span&gt;' match. The Gang from &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Jackassland&lt;/span&gt; just mere years ago seemed ready to implement full blown socialism while holding &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;simultaneously&lt;/span&gt; the Heavyweight Belt, Intercontinental Championship, and Tag Team Titles. Can it only be six years ago that the oh so pivotal steel cage battle royal in Florida turned the tide? You remember, when Dick "Chainsaw" Cheney and his protege George "Double You Troubles" Bush threw sand in the face of the referee and teemed up on Al "&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;Hangin&lt;/span&gt; with Chad" Gore while his partner Joe " D- Israel" Lieberman sifted said sand for gold? Up and out of the cage with the title went W and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;swingin&lt;/span&gt; Dick and things have never been the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Slaves to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Jekyll&lt;/span&gt; Island have introduced their new corporate structure for us all and they have begun their multilevel marketing campaign for their hot new product: Death. So far they are the fastest growing company in The Middle East and should be expanding to a neighborhood military base near you soon! Even after a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;controversial&lt;/span&gt; pin handed the Tag Team Title to Nancy&lt;br /&gt;"What was I saying" &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;Pelosi&lt;/span&gt; and Hillary " Hex Eye" Clinton, the GOP &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;ers&lt;/span&gt; hold fast in their hope that Rudy " Criminal" Giuliani and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;Mit&lt;/span&gt; "I'm so handsome I should get more Wives" Romney can keep the title in the  Zion,I  mean Rockefeller, I mean Republican  &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;warhouse&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In what appeared to be one of The Critical Matches leading up to "Bullshit Mania" 08 an amazing turn of events took place this week  in Iowa. After saying he would sit this match out due to injury, John " Mi Amigos" &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;Mc&lt;/span&gt; Cain  made an impression in Iowa after all.  It turns out Special Guest Referee from congress Ron "Dr No" Paul, ripped the mask off Debate organizer Ed &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;Faisor&lt;/span&gt; Jr only to reveal him as John McCain campaigner Ed &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;Faisor&lt;/span&gt; Sr. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"&gt;Awwwwww&lt;/span&gt;. Too Bad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In what would have come and gone as a debate that about twelve people would have watched, the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;NeoConpaigners&lt;/span&gt; did it again. In a no holds barred match they get caught with foreign objects in the ring. Why stay and fight when you can just cheat. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"&gt;Today's&lt;/span&gt; average &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"&gt;wraslin&lt;/span&gt; fan has been underestimated. Tell Giuliani we the know the Grand &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25"&gt;Wizard&lt;/span&gt; when we see him. We know Romney is a Rick Martel turned The Model. And to John McCain, "I know &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26"&gt;Classie&lt;/span&gt; Freddie &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_27"&gt;Blassie&lt;/span&gt;, and you sir are no &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28"&gt;Classie&lt;/span&gt; Freddie &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29"&gt;Blassie&lt;/span&gt;".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today McCain has played the role of Bruno &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30"&gt;Sanmartino&lt;/span&gt;, carving up his own face for all the world to see him bleed. Before we all just thought this stuff was fixed. Now we know it is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most folks see through pro &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_31"&gt;wrasslin&lt;/span&gt; at about 12. Why does Politics, which has such inferior actors, take so much longer.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Rudy Giuliani's Campaign in Iowa announced  he would not be taking part in the straw polls in early August, focusing rather on winning the primary.Huh? Wait ...what? I thought the very idea of a political campaign was to build momentum heading up to election day. Is all political science history wrong then when regarding knowing where you stand against your &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;opponents&lt;/span&gt;? Apparently so because an hour after Giuliani's announcement, Sen. John McCain jumped up and down and said "me too, me too".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may be asking" why would they not take part in the straw  polls? They &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; have to even do anything do they?". . You would be correct. The reason they will not take part is because Ron Paul is going to win in a landslide. You cant spam a straw poll so the Big Two &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Bunk buddies&lt;/span&gt; will be off the poll. They cant prevent Ron Paul from being in this poll, and they &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; control the straw polls, so they prevent themselves from being in it. They are buying time. What to do about this problem?.................This voice of the people hasn't been a problem at election time for quite a while..........Hold that thought.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets see how the Gang in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Jackassland&lt;/span&gt; is doing after the week in New Hampshire...The only candidate to not completely &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;embarrass&lt;/span&gt; himself in the debate, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Barak&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Obama&lt;/span&gt; has decided the way to win the undecideds is to threaten riots. And then he insults Andersen Cooper, the most liberal voice on America's most trusted(no idea why) news station, without any basis or provocation at all. Good job. I think Prescott Bush has come back from the dead to fund this guys campaign.&lt;br /&gt;Gore better get here soon &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;before&lt;/span&gt; these clowns from the Senate sell even the chair he used to sit on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back to the real criminals. Giuliani spent his day trying to win over fans of the constitution by having journalists arrested for asking questions. McCain was busy icing down the arm he used to point during the debate. I had an Uncle that reminds me of McCain. We used to get him to parade around and stay stupid things , just like these guys do to McCain. My uncle did it for nothing because he was drunk, I wonder how much &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;McCains&lt;/span&gt; getting?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Together these guys have to figure out how to deal with Paul. They have only two months to do it. For now they have the Mass media helping things out by not reporting on Paul, what with paving the way for the new Executive Order stating that The Department of Health has the authority to restrict travel. Is their really anyone left that cant see this coming in only the few days since the story broke. 44 times in Congress today it was said that this whole Airplane TB thing was &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;no body's&lt;/span&gt; fault because the department of health does not have the authority to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;restrict&lt;/span&gt; travel.And TB patient Mr speaker and his beautiful masked wife &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;haven't&lt;/span&gt; left the TV screen. It will be on the books by the time Paul wins in Iowa. We are reaching a critical mass here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Slaves to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;Jekyll&lt;/span&gt; Island battle The Gang from &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;Jackassland&lt;/span&gt; in the worst run campaign of all time even if it ended today, 16 months before the election. Meanwhile, to quote &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;Balack&lt;/span&gt;"sure he can win" &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;Osama&lt;/span&gt;, a quiet riot is rumbling, in the gut of a dying beast.The wicked queen that melts helplessly in her tears  while her minions are asleep , dreaming dreams of their spoils while her worst nightmare comes true...... Say it here for the first time with me...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                                   &lt;strong&gt;Paul/Buchanan  2008&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Recent unfounded accusations of spamming polls have lead media outlets to take it upon themselves to lie to the TV viewing public about the true results of online polls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At 11:30 last night CNN ticker had comments running from viewers of the debate. The ticker had asked people to weigh in by comment as Ron Paul supporters were spamming unscientific polls. The first 182 comments showed 174 pro Paul comments. Full paragraph comments by viewers who left their name, address and email. Not the stuff of spammers. Comments about real issues that affect the public. At midnight the ticker was gone, the link pointing back to the ticker  from the night of the Democratic debate. Disgusting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The game didnt go the way the Slaves to Jeckyl Island wanted. So they changed the rules. By mid afternoon today the ADL will probably have Paul connected to the KKK for his use of the forbidden phrase "Christianity".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the reality through the bullshit filter: Ron Paul will end the Fedral Reserve System when he takes office in 08. He will do this because the Federal Reserve Act is an assualt on the American People. The interests who own the member banks of the Fedral Reserve are the same interests who control the mass media. The goal for all involved is to make sure people like Ron Paul, Mike Gravel, or Patrick Buchanan never get elected President. Because that would mean an end to the systematic thievery purpetrated oin the American people since 1913. That is as basic as I can say it. Think about it people: How many God Damn times did we have to hear about our great ally Israel and how important it was to protect them. Three different GOP c*cks*ckers last night used "protecting our good friend Israel" as to how the war in Iraq is in our national interest. What the fuck has Israel ever done for anyone but themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would encourage all reading this to boycott CNN and Fox News until this practice of misleading the American voter is stopped. The GOP doesn't even seem to care if they lose the election, so long as Paul doesnt win.  This should scare everyone. Why isn't the GOP jumping up and down over the support Paul is recieving? Whay,with 26 senate seats up in 08 arent they rallying around this leader and trying to associate every young politician in the party with Paul.&lt;br /&gt;Because Paul will end the theivery ands the thieves pay these slaves more than you or I could ever dream to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again, please, consider this: No nation with a debt based economy can truly be free.

In a debate that could only be called such in a loose manner, Paul appealed to reason , and the sense we would be no safer with nuclear weapons in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Neo&lt;/span&gt; Con hands than Iranian hands. After the nonsense at Fort Dix last month I think he may be right.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At 10:40 pm CNN.com had Paul winning 55% of the vote. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;MSNBC&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;reported&lt;/span&gt; 44% going to clear winner Dr Ron Paul.  In what is sure to be a huge boost to the congressman from Texas' campaign, New Hampshire voters cheered him after every comment made. It is also a huge surprise given the disparity in time that was given too Giuliani. (who finished dead last by the way.) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In what was a debate that was painful to watch the end result may be worth it. The &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;frontrunner&lt;/span&gt; is firmly &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;entrenched&lt;/span&gt;. Ladies and Gentleman, better get to know Ron Paul.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Lots of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;double talk&lt;/span&gt; and revised history were blathered about last night in a GOP debate that made the prior Democratic event look downright thrilling. Ronald Reagan was mentioned to many times to count, good answers were cut short, and Bush's Boys(Giuliani, McCain,and Romney) were allowed to grandstand for three times the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;amount&lt;/span&gt; of time &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;afforded&lt;/span&gt; the other candidates. No real answers were given, and they only thing reminiscent of the Reagan years was the Luke and Laura  like love fest between &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Blitzer&lt;/span&gt; and Giuliani. All night &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Blitzer&lt;/span&gt; would announce the end of Rudy's time and then stand silent as the New York mayor &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;blathered&lt;/span&gt; on endlessly about himself. CNN should be ashamed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In an extremely frightening first hour we heard about how Islamic terrorists were about to blow up the know universe any second now. Repeatedly John McCain referred to the two terrorist plots foiled last month in New York and New Jersey. Two stories K&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;eith&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Obberman&lt;/span&gt; of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;MSNBC&lt;/span&gt; had already come out as saying look like pure bullshit. We then heard about how we had better nuke Iran before they nuke us. The big three Bush boys also referred to protecting Israel when they were asked about the importance of our &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;presence&lt;/span&gt; in Iraq. If we have to protect Israel, when the hell exactly is it that they will be leaving the Middle East so our &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;soldiers&lt;/span&gt; can come home . Thank God Ron Paul stood up for the human race and national sovereignty mentioning that it is not within our rights to force our way of life on people at gunpoint.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not surprisingly Immigration, the Wedge of 08 dominated much of the conversation. this allowed McCain almost a full hour to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;stomp&lt;/span&gt; the stage as he is the author of the bill along with Ted Kennedy and was allowed to defend himself at every comment about the bill. Again more suspicious timing on the release of the bill when clearly the War should have &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;dominated&lt;/span&gt; the conversation. Again only Paul spoke the truth when mentioning that many &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;illegal&lt;/span&gt; immigrants are not coming to this country to work their way up , but to take advantage of socialist programs created by big government. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;Huckabee&lt;/span&gt; tried to give hints of a better way to deal with the problem, but &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;Blitzer&lt;/span&gt; would have none of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;Mit&lt;/span&gt; Romney gave the best overall performance of a globalist portraying an American and should be awarded the Rothschild crimson star. Enough said. Gov. Gilmore from Virginia made solid points nut almost fell asleep twice while standing. Tommy Thompson should be investigated for crimes against humanity, not given a presidential nomination. The amazing thing in all of this is that Romney is the leader in the polls. How the hell turning over the nations military to Israel, and state sponsored health care that cant be funded are conservative messages I have no idea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was not an &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;actual&lt;/span&gt; debate, if it were only Paul and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;Huckabee&lt;/span&gt; would have been allowed to continue past the first question as they were the only two who managed to keep even the loose rules announced at the programs inception by &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;Blitzer&lt;/span&gt;. Paul was conspicuously left to the far outside of the panel , and was not given an opportunity to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;weigh&lt;/span&gt; in on Health Care, odd for a medical doctor. Oh &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"&gt;that's&lt;/span&gt; right our government &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;doesn't&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"&gt;consult&lt;/span&gt; doctors when it comes to health care.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only choice you have in this election in Ron Paul, or representatives from the United Nations. This is a scary time in our history, and our nation has never known an enemy like the one we face today. It is without question that our enemies have come to our own shores, the only question now can be, "how do we get them out of office?"&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

It is tonight that many are predicting a strong showing for Paul, and rumors fly about a very strong contingent of supporters at the event to be televised at 7pm by CNN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a 6 paragraph appeal to reason Paul highlighted some of the many things that have gone wrong and how the current stalemate is sure to continue without progress. All of course at the daily price of American lives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The article appeared on &lt;a href="http://www.lewrockwell.com/paul/paul390.html"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;LewRockwell&lt;/span&gt;.com&lt;/a&gt; and should really be read by every American voter.&lt;br /&gt;Only someone like Paul, not beholden to corporate masters, can say some of the things that desperately need to be said. Last night on the Daily Show, Paul went as far as to call &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Haliburton&lt;/span&gt; evil, and competently explained in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;layman's&lt;/span&gt; terms the difference between free markets and "&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;corporatism&lt;/span&gt;". That is real leadership.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe the only candidate in this campaign capable of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;providing&lt;/span&gt; any real change at all is Dr. Paul. Only someone with integrity can change this mess, and unfortunately not many people can live in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Washington&lt;/span&gt; for long without selling their souls. Maybe its in the architecture.   ;)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

After these issues were inexplicably ignored by Democrats, expect GOP candidates to ignore them as well. Huh? Wait ..what? Wouldn't it make sense for GOP hopefuls to attack these issues? Only if they were trying to save the country from certain ruin. But these guys are all just trying to get elected.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well, hold on there. Maybe I spoke to soon. Rep. Congressman Dr. Ron Paul will certainly be showcased tonight. After his spat with Giuliani in the May 3 debate, surely Paul will be asked questions about his comments regarding US foreign policy. Hopefully Paul will be quick in summing up what is obvious to everyone in attendance except The Slaves to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Jeckyl&lt;/span&gt; Island he will be debating. That every nations foreign policy dictates World sentiment about that nation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After that it will be up &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;to&lt;/span&gt; Paul to use his remaining time to address the issues of the people. In addition to the two mentioned in the previous paragraph, the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;assault&lt;/span&gt; on liberty that is the Patriot Act must be discussed in this debate. This is where Paul can win in New Hampshire. And that would be good for us.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Dr. Ron Paul has been speaking out behalf of the American people for 30 years. That is why corporate America has been trying to shut him up. He never voted for this war or any dollar spent on it. He has never, ever, voted to pass law that restricts freedoms. And he is the only candidate to call  the Federal Reserve System what it is. A private corporation bent on the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;destruction&lt;/span&gt; of this nation and global currency control. Only congressman Paul can challenge these folks, as he is the only one who has not been repeatedly bribed by them.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;One mans stand on integrity will save the world from global fascism in 2008. After 35 years in public service Ron Paul is still a free man. He is not enslaved to blackmail from the World Bank and International Monetary Fund. Only a free man can bring liberty to the oppressed. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Tonight, in front of millions, Ron Paul will begin to dismantle the Military Industrial Complex. Not with tanks or &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;missiles&lt;/span&gt;. But with that from which all &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;beginnings&lt;/span&gt; arise. Thought.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Finally, showcased tonight will be a man who had risen to the top to save us all. Now  will all know what it takes for an honest man to succeed in politics: 50 years.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Pretty tricky huh? Not really. Paul will walk into Giuliani's home town,  and the audience will go wild. Why? Because we are not from South Carolina, and have not been hypnotized by the Chevy commercials. We know Giuliani's actual actions on 9/11. The New Hampshire Republicans and Democrats will be sure to pay attention to Paul during tomorrows debate. That is really all Paul needs. The Daily show audience is more liberal for sure, but &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; be to surprised to see Republican registrations soar in the next few days as Paul's message transcends party lines.  It &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;doesn't&lt;/span&gt; even matter how the back and forth with host John Stewart goes for Paul, the roar at his introduction will be enough to catch the attention of New Hampshire voters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a state where liberty or death is  the rule, Paul and his return to the constitution message will play well, and Giuliani will be forced to engage  the Texas congressman after his "Educating Rudy"speech at the National Press club. This will be bad for Rudy as Paul can stand on vote after vote after vote. All Giuliani knows is combat politics and there is nothing you can attack about Ron Paul. You may not agree with him, but Giuliani is not skilled enough to pull that into the light. Tomorrow will be the day the official front runner changes in the Republican primary, and will have been from the springboard of Rudy's backyard and big mouth.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

It was clear early on that Edwards was trying to separate himself from the pack, revealing key differences between himself from the other Democratic hopefuls. It was just as clear that he was incapable of doing so. Maybe because he still seems ill at ease in a debate setting. More likely however because there &lt;em&gt;are no&lt;/em&gt; key differences between he and the other candidates.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Gang in Jackassland did their best to do what they do best. Run for stuff. Maybe the reason Mr Edwards home state of North Carolina is seeing property insurance skyrocket, a Democratic Party steeped in scandal, an unemployment percentage approaching 5%, is that all this guy ever seems to do is run for office. All of the examples above are instances where a states 2 senators should be stepping up to voice these concerns in Washington. All this guy offers is that he looks the part.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The "Big Three" if that's what you want to call them: Senators Hillary Clinton from NY, Barak Obama from Illinois, and the &lt;span style="color:#ffff00;"&gt;aforementioned &lt;/span&gt;Mr Edwards, did there best to stay friendly, focused and and on a first name basis last night. Iraq was the Obvious issue, taking up the more formal first hour portion of the "debate", moderated by CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer. Backtracking and excuse making, peppered with lots of blame assessment was the recipe for this portion of the 2 hour long spectacle. Ohio congressman Dennis Kucinich, did have the courage to point out that the Democratic party had failed in its mandate from the American people to end the war in Iraq.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;However this was ignored in followups by Blitzer, who turned in the nights most skillful political performance in totaling removing former Alaska senator Mike Gravel from the debate. For anyone unfamiliar with Gravel, you should read up on him. The reasons he is a non factor in the election is because he would radically change the country for the better. Gravel made the most of his 70 seconds of air time, pointing out the raid on Social Security by the Clinton administration, as well as the fact that there is absolutely no money for either of the health care plans mentioned by Edwards or Obama. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson and Conn. Senator Chris Dodd did their best with the limited time they were afforded. Kudos to Richardson for actually trying to mention a plan of action he would undertake, however the plan made no sense on any of the issues , and there was little mention again on how to fund any of this. All he managed to really do is bait Washington life timer Joe Biden, Senator from Delaware into saying the idea of protecting our national sovereignty was impractical. Dodd did nothing to stand out and was clearly the member of the senate Kucinich, Congressman form Ohio, chose to whip on. A deft maneuver buy a seasoned debater to make his point on the Senates failings without alienating followers of the popular Clinton and Obama.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;This brings us to Hilary. In a word unflappable. Not to mention the fact that with the exception of Gravel, not one other candidate dared look her way. Early on Edwards made the mistake of calling her Hillary after she had referred to him as Senator Edwards. Everyone realized this and Obama leaped to the rescue by starting a first name calling party that left the group looking more unprofessional than cozy. Clinton tried to bring about memories of the better times of the former Clinton administration, and keep the group from being divided by Blitzer, as he was clearly trying to do. Mission accomplished on both counts. Say what you want, the woman is as polished as they come. The problem: again, failure to address the real issues and the answers she has provided have not addressed funding. All in all she did nothing to damage her position as front runner.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;If it were a scored debate Kucinich would have been the landslide winner, as he scored often in his time and was not counterpointed by any of his opponents. Probably because, like us, they have no idea who the hell he is. The one time Biden even glanced his way, mentioning that the Democrats don't have the votes to end the war, Kucinich snapped back that the Republicans don't have the votes to fund it either. Votes the Gang from Jackassland inexplicably gave him in May of 07 after receiving a mandate from the American people to stop the funding in the fall of 06.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;No candidate tried to touch on the two issues other than Iraq, the broken monetary system and dwindling national sovereignty, that have dominated the conversations among voters both Democrat and Republican alike. With Gravel certain to be removed from the debates and the uphill climb Kucinich faces due to his obscurity, it appears all that is left are the business as usual candidates from the Senate. Nothing was mentioned about NAFTA, nor the crumbling Federal Reserve. Both issues that have led to an absolute tidal wave of support for Republican candidate Dr Ron Paul. Paul, you may remember was referred to by other Republicans as &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;'seeking the wrong parties nomination".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;That leads me to this. First I will begin by saying that to compare hard working civil servant Ron Paul to the career politicians who were on display last night is an absolute insult of the highest degree. The other thing I will say is this. If registered democrats want real change they have only one choice. Change party affiliation before the primary in your state and vote for Dr Ron Paul. So far in this seasons debates he is the only candidate to offer solutions that can be funded and a real solution for Americas problems . A withdraw of our troops in Iraq , return to a currency with value, and end to assault on US sovereignty. Please fellow citizens, understand this if nothing else. No nation with a debt based economy can be truly free. Think about it. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Dr Ron Paul. But wait I thought the reason the GOP wanted to douse the flames fueling Paul was because he was really a democrat in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;libertaerian&lt;/span&gt; clothes. Anti War,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;pro congressional approval, free trade, etc etc. If this is the case it would seem like Paul is giving the Democrats a blueprint for victory. Why then are the Democrats refusing to talk about the things all of these pro Ron Paul voters are screaming out about? I mean after all, win all these Paul supporters and they can stroll right into the White House.No?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Barack&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Obama&lt;/span&gt; gave a great &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;speach&lt;/span&gt; last week. The crowd sang out in spirit. It is the stuff political careers are made by. How could they not be ecstatic. Any symbol of the end of the worst 8 yrs in American History is enough to make a grown man cry at this point. But then came the time to discuss the issues. You would presume the issues that all this free market analysis given him by the rabid support for Paul is telling him voters want to discuss. Iraq and The Middle East, The Economy, The Unfair tax system, Immigration reform. But what do we hear. You got it. Health Care.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Barack&lt;/span&gt; may be to young to remember but we've heard this all before. In fact we hear it every four years from the gang that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;couldnt&lt;/span&gt; steal straight over there in Jackass land. They tell us we can afford universal health care. Despite the fact that we are dead broke. This includes all the insurance companies by the way, but yet we can afford this great &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;healthcare&lt;/span&gt; plan. Repeal the Bush tax cuts they tell us, they were only for the rich. Then they get in office and tell us we were an awful lot richer than we thought all along. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Emergancy&lt;/span&gt; rooms stay overcrowded with all the gunshot victims from the illegal guns they were &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;goona&lt;/span&gt; get rid of and we all still pay a fortune for the right to say we can go to the hospital even if we are not bleeding to death.Please. Besides the speech Mr &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;Obama&lt;/span&gt; gave is the stuff that launches great political careers. A term in the White House is how one should culminate, not begin.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Hillary Clinton took time out to remember Gay and Lesbian pride day last week. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;That's&lt;/span&gt; right. In the midst of genocide all over the globe Sen. Clinton took the time out to address the less than one percent of humanity that considers themselves homosexuals. The strategy here is clear. Say nothing so it can't be held against you. Maybe she is Karl &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Rove's&lt;/span&gt; loan remaining fan.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;John Edwards got off to a rough start in early May as the hard hitting American free press pummeled him with tough questions over a haircut. Missing however were all the questions being asked by voters in his own state of North Carolina. Like how come there &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;isn't&lt;/span&gt; a single job left in the whole place. Why people are losing homes to foreclosure because they cant get anyone to write property insurance. Why &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;doesn't&lt;/span&gt; Mr Edwards simply ask his &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;contemporary&lt;/span&gt; Mr &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;Obama&lt;/span&gt; to tap into the the pockets of those well healed insurers that are going to spring for all those State sponsored health plans?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The truth is that these questions wont get answered. They wont get answered because they wont get asked. The Press will start the attack. The Democrats will go on the defensive. Praying to hold on to a fourth quarter lead in the first half. Why? Why you ask will the staunch defenders of freedom and justice that rallied the nation to the polls to win both houses of congress ignore these lightning rod issues? Simple. They are all for sale. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The reality is the one issue that causes all these other problems is the fact that we are a debt based economy. Dependent on foreign banking interests since 1913. If you want to fix health care return to coining our own currency. Repeal the Federal Reserve act and you can do away with Federal Income Tax, an illegal tax that only goes to paying the interest on the money we borrow that we never needed to borrow in the first place. Do that and everyone can afford a health plan as good as the President himself.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;So why not just do it. After all, if Ron Paul keeps saying we can do this, and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;no one&lt;/span&gt; else is saying he cant, why cant any of these Civic heroes just do the same thing. In a word : integrity.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;50 years of honor and integrity will come full circle for Ron Paul when he is elected the next President of the United States. The reward for never taking a bribe, payoff, backroom bargain or corporate straw job. The reason these other heroes in government, you &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;remember&lt;/span&gt;, the ones who were gonna have our troops on the way back by now, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; talk about these issues is because if they do they wont get elected. The Banks that enslave and own them would pull the plug on their campaign tomorrow. Dr Paul &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;doesn't&lt;/span&gt; have to listen to these folks because they &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; pay him, we do. Sounds like a better set up &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;doesn't&lt;/span&gt; it. For any of these other jellyfish whores on capitol hill to speak out for the people would be political suicide. The Banks would tell the networks they own to stop coverage of their campaign. Much the same way they are trying to dismiss the support for Paul. I tried to take a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"&gt;zogby&lt;/span&gt; poll on line today. Dr Paul was removed from the poll. The reason given was " Rush &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"&gt;Limbough&lt;/span&gt; has stated that the support for Paul is nothing but "&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25"&gt;spammers&lt;/span&gt;"". Sounds like"evildoers" . The &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26"&gt;internet&lt;/span&gt; may save us all after all. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The one thing that is clear in all this is that after Paul's victory, the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_27"&gt;internet&lt;/span&gt; will become the medium news agencies focus on from now on in terms of rushing to deliver the news first.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The irony in all this is that when Paul takes his place in the oval office he will have defeated the man that made his victory possible. Without the work of Al Gore to make the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28"&gt;internet&lt;/span&gt; available to the public, no one would be talking about Ron Paul. Maybe &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29"&gt;noone&lt;/span&gt; would even know they had a need to. Mr Gore should be rewarded. And he will be. With a life of riches in the private sector, away from the life he was always to good for anyway.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

In what has to be a painful process for the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Neo&lt;/span&gt; Conservative Midwestern candidate seeking the Republican nomination, Thompson traveled all the way east to press the flesh of seven supporters. No that is not a misprint. 7 is the correct number. Even though &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;ol&lt;/span&gt; Tommy was way of base in his interpretation of "&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;spammers&lt;/span&gt;" the sandwiches were still a hit.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In what would appear to be good news for opponents of the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;controversial&lt;/span&gt; former Director of Health and Human Services , a closer look at things reveals an apathy so dangerous &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;it should have every fan of Liberty up in arms. Literally.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It is not &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Thompsons&lt;/span&gt; record as Wisconsin Gov. that has me concerned, it is those years that followed. Those years that right now seem to be extremely stealth in their ability to fly under the news radar. While overseeing the FDA in his role as HHS &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;director&lt;/span&gt;, the FDA approved the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;VeriChip&lt;/span&gt; as a medical device. Opponents to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;RFID&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;andMicro&lt;/span&gt; chipping humans as a whole were outraged. Many feel it was this that lead to his stepping down from his post. Many are wrong.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Mr Thompson left his &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;position&lt;/span&gt; in the Administration of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;Devastation&lt;/span&gt; to accept the  position in the private sector that he still holds today. Member of the Board of directors of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;the&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;VeriChip&lt;/span&gt; corporation. In fact as of this report he has close to 200,000 shares of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;VeriChip&lt;/span&gt; Stock. Just another example of the good &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;ol&lt;/span&gt; boy network having sold us all into serfdom. For anyone unfamiliar with &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;RFID&lt;/span&gt; or &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;Veri&lt;/span&gt; Chip go &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spychips"&gt;here now &lt;/a&gt;to understand the many dangers this technology poses to human freedom.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Listening to quotes from Thompson along the campaign trail so far bring chills chills to the spine of even the most cynical of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;Orwells&lt;/span&gt; critics. "The time is right for my ideas" he chanted back in November. Not that his ideas were right or would benefit mankind, just that the timing was right. Now does that sound like the voice of the people or the mouthpiece of a corporation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now he proposes trying to end the war in Iraq diplomatically through offering to share "medical technology".  The thoughts of the American Corporation let loose on such a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;primitive&lt;/span&gt; people as middle easterners is a thought to scary to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;conceive&lt;/span&gt;. Certainly they would be longing for the days of patriot &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;missiles&lt;/span&gt; and mortar fire in no time. What is even scarier and even more disheartening is that there were only 7 people to hear him say it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This campaign should have more followers than any other in American History. Where all all those serviceman who swore to protect us against all enemies foreign and domestic. Where are all those law enforcement officers who swore to protect and serve. Where are all the voices in Washington screaming out against the technology that will end every single freedom and right to privacy the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"&gt;Constitution&lt;/span&gt; gave us. This campaign should look like the Bastille day parade. The first Bastille Day parade. But we wont worry. This will all never happen. We are the good guys after all.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In 1607 the First white capitalists came to north &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;America&lt;/span&gt;. Three short weeks later the first slave ships followed them up the James River. Now, almost 400 years later to the day, they are done. They are done with them, and they are done with us. No matter who us is to you. In a few short years the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"&gt;freedoms&lt;/span&gt; this nation was founded on will be a distant memory. The &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"&gt;mining &lt;/span&gt;efforts in the middle east will be under way and the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25"&gt;reconditioning&lt;/span&gt; of the Muslim faith will be sold on billboards in LA with lots of smiling young Iraqi children with levi's on their legs and small bar codes on their heads.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;And Just think, you could of have had the front row to the coming out party with just seven other &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26"&gt;legionaries&lt;/span&gt;. Not to mention the canned meat.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

" The response and support has been overwhelming, I really had know idea what I was in for". The Ron Paul Meetup group is a grass roots organization aimed at face to face interaction to promote a discussion of the issues among voters. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;In a state that has gone to the Democrats in the last 4 Presidential elections, a constitutional Republican like Paul provides an interesting option for those in a state besieged by tax woes,&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;big government bureaucracy, and a mounting death toll in Iraq.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Gottschall continued, "The people here have had it. I keep hearing this is just a cyber campaign, but we have had to start additional groups like this one just to accommodate the amount of people who want to be involved. Living so close to Philadelphia, we start learning about the constitution on field trips in first grade. People here know when their rights aren't being respected, and Dr Paul has voting record spanning three decades where he votes according to the law every time. No other candidate on either side in this race wants anyone looking at their voting record."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;In a state where names like Betsy Ross, Ben Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson are parts of everyday speech, constitutional republican Dr Ron Paul could have Jersey Dems seeing red next November.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;For More information about the Cherry Hill Ron Paul 2008 Meetup visit:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://ronpaul.meetup.com/201/"&gt;http://ronpaul.meetup.com/201/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;###&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Fred Thompson as the Anti Paul because he is the same type of "federalist" that Paul is. Huh? Wait...what? Is this the same guy that keeps voting to end national sovereignty. To abuse the American worker through managed trade. What the hell is Federalist anyway? Is that as in Federal Reserve? Nice try Mr Murdoch. The one thing the groundswell of support for Dr Paul has proven is that people in this country do know their rights. Or at least they can feel the wheel spinning beneath their feet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The question keeps being asked "Why is Ron Paul a Republican anyway?" I think the answer in two simple parts. The first being that in order to do anything in politics you must first get elected. Although his views are clearly more libertarian in nature, this a two party system and Dr Paul is smart enough to realize that. The Second part is that his life as an obstetrician and Hippocratic oath would prevent him from running on a pro abortion ticket. And that's what the DFemocrats have become. Even if they don't see themselves that way, the undecideds see them that way and that is all that matters at election time. It is the wedge issue come full circle. In my opinion if it puts Paul in the White House it would even make Karl Rove worth it&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Neo Con presence in the GOP must be so strong that the rest of the party simply doesn't even care, or choose to cash in on the fact that they now have the most talked about candidate in the race and a chance to salvage a political party that has lost touch with America and is headed for the history books. And that's what the Revelationists have become weather they like it or not. After all no one likes to have to think of our country as killing small children &lt;em&gt;and&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;still &lt;/em&gt;have to pay $3 a gallon. Does no one in this grand ol party care if they have a political future?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is this what we've come to ? Is this all our so called elite can do? They have sold themselves for so long, it seems they have lost all faith in even themselves. in their ability to stand on principle, to have enough confidence in themselves and their fellow countryman that we would be able to stand up to the masters who have for so long owned us. Care we nothing of future generations of people seeking freedom?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are now so hopelessly broke we are borrowing every penny for this war from our strong ally and fellow emissary of freedom and democracy... The Peoples Republic of China. Yes those same humanitarians that turned tanks on their own teenagers. I would hope this would convince even the guys with the red white and blue condoms that this war has nothing to do with ideology and everything to do with colonization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets hope the folks over on Pennsylvania Avenue concentrate so hard on scaring us with b horror movie quality news clips that they wake up in 19 short months out of jobs.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

The voice on the other end of the phone told him he would be nominating Robert Zoellick to replace Robert Zoellick I mean Paul Wolfowitz as President of the World Bank. No I don't know who made the call, or where W was at the time.(I'm betting not in Washington). I'm just taking time to make the point that George Bush has no more say in this decision than I have on deciding if it will rain tomorrow.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Federal Reserve Member banks who remain such a mystery( Rothschild Family held banks shhhh!!) get together and make this decision. Maybe even W himself believes he has something to do with this decision. They allow him the illusion of power much the same way they allow us the illusion of freedom. Just a little at a time and only so long as it's profitable.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For anyone not familiar with Zoellick he is as enslaved as any man can be. Tri Lateral Commission, Council on Foreign Relations, PNAC, NAFTA Architect, Enron thief, and most recently of Goldman Sachs. This last one has seemed to fly even under conspiracy theorist radar. Some research reveals Goldman Sachs as the largest political contributor in the world bar none. Come on boys, keep at it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Zoellick will be the same as Wolfowitz as Pearl as Rumsfeld. Why? Not because they share similar values and ideas but because they are all enslaved by the same men. The European banking interests that stole this nation in 1913 have settled in Israel and are using the sweat of the American worker to wage war on the world. But hey, knowingly enslaved World Bank President sounds a hell of a lot better than unwittingly enslaved plumber any day, no?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The pay must be better an d at least Zoellick knows his fate, plus he doesn't have to spend the whole day with his head in someone else's shit. Although he is taking over for Wolfowitz.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Either way the nomination of Zoellick should send a clear message that the close get closer, and foreign bankers, not the American people run this government.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Not only does this mean Giuliani can &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;count&lt;/span&gt; on 52 delegates at the convention, he does not have to spend one more dollar campaigning in New Jersey. Not one. This should save his &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;campaign&lt;/span&gt; around 6 million dollars, maybe to spend in the mining regions &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;of&lt;/span&gt; nearby Pennsylvania where Constitutional Republican and native son Dr. Ron Paul is sure to have a heavy turnout.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a real problem for New Jersey republicans and democrats alike. And &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;here's&lt;/span&gt; why. Not only does thief and traitor Giuliani not have to campaign in the state, it becomes pointless for any GOP candidate to include Jersey on the trail. Why would Von Savage do something that so obviously harmful to the people of the state? Simple. He will be placing the person who will possibly be the next president in his pocket.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Von Savage has stated his political opposition to Giuliani in the past, which makes this all the more bizarre. Here is what happened &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;through&lt;/span&gt; the bullshit filter:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Von Savage takes a look at who he thinks will win the popular vote. Knowing he has the power to change the rules he changes them simply to make the candidate indebted to him. With absolutely no interest for the state. he &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;doesn't&lt;/span&gt; even have the class or belief in his own system of government to follow the natural process of campaigning and winning fair and square. Why do that when you can just steal. And this is the message of freedom we are spreading?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does the phrase "Meaningful employment for everyone" sound like a good slogan to you to?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&amp;amp;add=http://hoagspin.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;img alt="Add to Technorati Favorites" src="http://static.technorati.com/pix/fave/btn-fave2.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Dr Ron Paul in 2003 when a friend suggested I watch his speech on the floor of congress entitled Neo- Conned.( Still available at Google Video). I was extremely impressed with the level of honesty and composure he displayed when addressing the activities of PNAC crew. For those of you who may be unaware pf The Project for a New American Century,you should immediately go to their &lt;a href="http://www.newamericancentury.org/statementofprinciples.htm"&gt;web site &lt;/a&gt;and read the mission statement by Wolfowitz, Pearl, Chaney, Rumsfeld, and co. written in 1997. Anyone who reads these statements and believes the war in Iraq was not a completely premeditated criminal act is hypnotized. Mr. Paul showed a level of honesty about the real enemies our country faces that I have never seen from an incumbent. Every American would be wise to watch his speech.(wow that last line had several scary undertones)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr Paul was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pa. and settled in Texas after being based their while in the U.S. Air Force. He began a career in Medicine as an Obstetrician and has delivered over 5000 babies. I believe this fact alone is important simply because he is not a Lawyer. Our country has far to long had members of the Bar circumventing law for the purpose of political patronage. Give them a place in office and they will sell even the copper piping.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A distinguished career in public service that has spanned over three decades was highlighted by a campaign in 1988 as the Libertarian candidate for president. His record in congress is a very accurate predictor of how he will govern as President. If the bill ids permissible by the constitution he will consider it. If it is not permissible by the law he will not consider it. Kind of refreshing ,huh? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am including links to his web site where you can read about his stand on the issues. The most important of which I feel is his desire to move our economy to a currency of our own. The idea that a Nation with a debt based economy can be truly free is as ridiculous an idea as I have ever heard. It is a profitable illusion however, and so it stands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It remains to be seen as to weather or not someone with these bold ideas can actually win the GOP nomination. In New Jersey the parasites have fully embedded themselves into Rudy the wonder sch ill. ( Criminal Guilty of obstruction of justice and destruction of evidence during the 9/11 investigation by the way). They are attempting to change state election laws to give all 52 delegates to Giuliani thereby saving him millions in campaign expenses.
