    Your say-so that those are the "true" delegate totals is not good enough.

    Why would I do that?

    I see you have no real reason for being against Ron Paul.

    Which goes to prove that you're nothing more than a troll.

    Goodbye, troll.

    Other than Paul's an incompetant and ineffective politician who hasn't managed in 22+ years in Congress to get more than 8 pieces of inconsequential legislation passed.

    Realist.

    It's simple, really. He hates Ron Paul because he hates freedom. He thinks we live in a free society despite having legislation like the NDAA and Patriot Act on the books, hellish debt, terrible foreign policy that has us in multiple wars, with a war with Iran likely on the horizion, authoritarian war on drugs, TSA doing invasive searches, etc.

    No need to even concern yourself with him. Disagreeing is fine, but he has nothing of substance to offer. Don't even waste your time.

    Oh please. It's same old tired Paulism. If you don't love Ron Paul then you hate freedom, liberty, mom, apple pie and you probably kick small dogs for fun.

    You guys are so full of sh*t you must have brown eyes.

    The only reason he hasn't been banned from the forum is because he contributes financially.

    Why someone would pay money to troll a message board 16 hours a day is beyond me.
     
    RP12 and (deleted member) like this.

    Funny, you didn't address the rest of my post.

    You're either a troll or delusional.

    as opposed to the dimwits who vote for the same tools over, and over, and over again, expecting that this time, things will change.

    Better turn up your rheostat.

    No, just a realist who doesn't address nonsense and who would never support a bizzare and inconsequential political hack like Ron Paul.

    Really? You have some proof that I'd be banned if not for the fact that I periodically donate to the forum. Because I'd like to see that proof. As they say, "Put up or shut up."

    Because I just love handing Paul's supporters their asses. You're a case in point Doc.

    here are couple of facts that need to be pointed out

    only congress has the power to borrow money on the credit of the united states

    the federal reserve of the united states achieves billions of dollars in net-profit, which it gives to the government


    it hasn't been successfully disputed, the central banks have stood the constitutional and legal test of time for nearly 200 years

    The Supreme Court had its say on the matter in McCulloch v. Maryland (1819). It voted 9-0 to uphold the Second Bank of the United States as constitutional. The Court argued with the doctrine of implied powers, stating that to be ‘necessary and proper’ the Bank needed only to be useful in helping the government meet its responsibilities in maintaining the public credit and regulating the money supply. Chief Justice Marshall wrote, “After the most deliberate consideration, it is the unanimous and decided opinion of this court that the act to incorporate the Bank of the United States is a law made in pursuance of the Constitution, and is part of the supreme law of the land” (Hixson, 117). The Court affirmed this opinion in the 1824 case Osborn v. Bank of the United States (Ibid, 14).



    it's certainly no mystery

    The Federal Reserve Banks' 2011 estimated net income of $78.9 billion was derived primarily from $83.6 billion in interest income on securities acquired through open market operations (U.S. Treasury securities, federal agency and government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) mortgage-backed securities, and GSE debt securities). Additional earnings were derived primarily from realized gains on the sale of U.S. Treasury securities of $2.3 billion, foreign currency gains of $152 million, and income from services of $479 million. The Reserve Banks had interest expense of $3.8 billion on depository institutions' reserve balances and term deposits.

    or you can look in one of the many audits of the federal reserve

    Yet none of you have been able to answer my very simple question. How does Ron Paul plan on efficiently and effectively closing all of our overseas bases and how will he do so without violating our treaty obligations. With a source link please.
