    Exactly, which is why I keep saying I wish there were more moderate politicians with his consistency and honesty. My problem with Paul has never been his character, just his ideas. I greatly respect his character.

    At the time they only protected incumbents, could they have stopped the assassination? Maybe? Maybe not? At least Robert was an elected official at the time.
     
     
     
     
    I never said protection might not be deemed necessary, only that it is a form of welfare for public officials and potential public officials. I agree with Paul, he is right in describing it as so.

    Which sucks because Ron Paul would put right all that is wrong with this country in a heartbeat. And he would call everyone out that didn't play ball. So if something didn't pass, he would say in an announcement that it didn't pass because these people...

    I love Ron Paul!! Doctor NO!!!

    The moral of the story being, Ron Paul knows it's pee, but he let them pour it in him anyway. Bold and fearless:chew: leader indeed.....

    Let? Oh no, we're all in this together and we didn't "let" any of it unfold the way it has. Some are just helplessly clueless.
