I kidnapped Mr. Peabody and his "way back machine"
When we got there I sold him to a chinese restaurant
I punched every girl I saw in the face
On the way to the booth to vote for Hitler
I went back in time and voted for Hitler
I went back in time and voted for Hitler
I went back in time and voted for Hitler
I went back in time and voted for Hitler
I just voted for Adolf Hitler
I just voted for Adolf Hitler
I just voted for Adolf Hitler
I just voted for Adolf Hitler

RON PAUL 2012

Save America. Stop US Imperialism

Why would anyone vote for a man who would blindly follow idealism and ruin what little of pragmatism we have left in this country?

The government's main functions are to provide for it's people, to shelter, feed and protect them. To keep them happy. Freedom and justice are only a means to a end.

ron paul would just take away all of the autism bucks and plunge america into a new dark age of crime and economic collapse

>>8701612
Ever hear of checks and balances? If he tried to do something crazy it wouldn't go through.

We need a nutjob like Paul to fuck up the establishment and tear apart their plans before they put another Bush or Obama in office. Both of them are establishment crooks, Obama is just more meticulous.

>>8701623

That's a good point

>>8701623
>Ever hear of checks and balances? If he tried to do something crazy it wouldn't go through.

You mean like do-nothing Obama who can't get any shit passed except for shit that congress will pass because it is crazy and it will blow up in his face?

>We need a nutjob like Paul to fuck up the establishment and tear apart their plans before they put another Bush or Obama in office. Both of them are establishment crooks, Obama is just more meticulous.

So you're saying he'll fuck things up by getting no bills passed, and stagnating any recovery efforts and international diplomacy? Ok, sure sounds like Obama.

People who believe in Ron Paul are the same people that supported the reds because communism was so idealistic. It has nothing to do with fundamental beliefs, but the naivete that some magical governmental and ideological system will magically make the world a better place.

I wish I still was in Hawaii.

>The government's main functions are to provide for it's people, to shelter, feed and protect them.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.

one out of four is a failing grade.

>To keep them happy.
Who the fuck decides what 'keeps them happy?' free iphones for all?

>Freedom and justice are only a means to a end.
That one was half a cogent thought. Keep it up.

>>8701661
>Who the fuck decides what 'keeps them happy?' free iphones for all?
Capitalism and markets are very convenient for that. You let the people decide what they want, or the marketers. No one said happiness had to be a state run decision, unlike you Ron Paul people.

>>8701641
>magically make the world a better place

Getting rid of tax loopholes for the extremely wealthy to reduce the gross wealth disparity and cutting the fuck out of spending isn't magic. It's logic.

We're paying more on the interest for our debt than we fucking produce. Something needs to change and fast. Obama said he would fix it and instead we find him and Biden with their pants down in the special interests department with Solyndra. Fuck em all and put the crazy old guy in office. He can't fuck it up worse than it is now.

Stop watching television.

wch republican candidate wld u fuk?

>>8701678
That actually looks like a surprisingly good track record.

>>8701675
>Getting rid of tax loopholes for the extremely wealthy to reduce the gross wealth disparity and cutting the fuck out of spending isn't magic. It's logic.
Won't pass congress. Even Obama had his removal of loopholes tax bill.

Either you want to vote in Ron Paul because some men just want to watch the world burn, or you are naive if you think he can actually fix things.

>>8701600

>idealism

RP's the least idealistic one out there. He's the ONLY one that isn't pretending that the status quo is sustainable. He's the ONLY one who acknowledges that we've fucked up a lot of people's lives and need to stop pretending we know what's best for the world.

Idealism? Our government RUNS on idealism, runs us straight into the ground. Paul is the only one not pretending that he knows the ideal way to help everyone. He wants everyone to be able to help themselves.

>>8701379
No. Never.

I like Ron Paul because doing so at least supports the fantasy that the US government might in some way work.

Vote for assholes: It's not like someone who isn't will actually do anything good either is not really the most compelling thing in the world.

>>8701595
>implying US in 2012 without imperialism is still US

>>8701690
Ok, sure buddy. Whatever you say.

>>8701685
Close, I want to watch the establishment burn.

They control all the money and continue to stockpile it through investments that only they can afford to take. If they fuck someone over and people complain, they crush them with lawyers. If they fuck up their investments, they jump ship and leave the rest of us to deal with it. If somebody tries to speak out, they silence them with their 24/7 media.

I'm just tired of the bullshit, and I'm tired of their mindless drones continuing to put them in office.

I'm voting republican

>>8701673

Yeah, unfettered capitalism produces the most happiness for the most people. Just look at the US during it's laissez-faire period, or China right now! I wish I could work in a factory for less than minimum-wage while people that move around money make enough per year to buy 150 mansions to store their gold in.

I'm not even american, but I thought almost all US presidents last the full term... Like the ones that don't really care, but vote anyway, just vote obama, or like the random asians/mexicans/etcs, will just vote obama.

>>8701715
>China right now!
Still a good sight prettier than China back then.

>>8701715
>unfettered capitalism
No one said that.

All that is required is a market where people can speak with money. It can be regulated as much as you'd like, as long as it still affords the consumer some choice.

If this were a communist country and you had coupons for cookies, then if there is a choice which cookies to get, then citizens can choose a choice they think is best. Then if manufacturers can respond to this to produce more of what people like, things work out.

>>8701705

That all you got?

>>8701716
I'm not even american, but I thought almost all US presidents last the full term... Like the ones that don't really care, but vote anyway, just vote caucasian, or like the random caucasians, will just vote caucasian.

Fair enough, communism is just as terrible as pure capitalism.

My point is, mixed market economies are the only possible longterm stable economies. People who honestly believe market forces will direct everything are fucking retarded.

>>8701733
I dunno, maybe you're just blind.

>>8701740
>People who honestly believe market forces will direct everything are fucking retarded.

Not true at all. Unless you mean market forces all by themselves. Of course you need fair rules to play the market economy game with.

Please delete this thread before the eagles show up.

>communism is just as terrible as pure capitalism.

hehehe, that's right, goy.

And don't forget, 6 million jews died in the holocaust.

HEY! DID YOU GUYS KNOW THAT CHE DUDE ON YOUR SHIRT IS A MURDERER?

MY MOM TOLD ME, BUT I THINK SHE WAS LYING. STUPID BITCH, AMIRITE COMRADES?

>>8701806
He didn't really need to be a murderer to not be worthy of the praise everyone gives him.

He surrendered like a coward after he told his men to fight to the death.

>>8701815
And he knew that 100% he'd be executed. At least he could give few words at that moment.

Hitler gets praised and put on a pedestal. Guevara gets the "lol murderer coward pussy" treatment.

Why does this guy keep causing americans anal pain for more than 50 years?

>>8701685
Oh come on, a nuclear winter every once in a while might be good for humanity and the gene pool.

Lets let Iran get a nuke and then watch the world burn.

>>8701840
9/11 being the catalyst to the patriot act isn't bad.

>>8701840
And then there's this faggot.

>>8701840
If Iran gets a nuke the only ones who will care are Israel. Maybe when they get a hundred we can start worrying.

>>8701773

But I don't care about the holocaust, or capitalism. You just can't have an economy based on pure capitalism or communism and expect it to work for any serious length of time.

Where the fuck is meido to delete this stupid politics thread? I come to /jp/ to escape reality.
