here you have it from your hero's mouth. spin away, Paulies, on why this doesn't show your guy is a total loon.

from The Hill:


Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) says he would consider putting the liberal congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) in his Cabinet if he were to win the presidency in 2012.

Paul said his libertarian political philosophy helps him connect with some on the far left � including Kucinich, who shares Paul�s general anti-war stance.

Paul joked that if he brought the Ohio congressman aboard in his administration, he might have to create a "Department of Peace."

"You've got to give credit to people who think," he said.

"Being pragmatic is about forming coalitions," Paul said at a breakfast sponsored by The Christian Science Monitor. "I probably work with coalitions better than the other candidates. I don't think I've said anything negative here about the president."
LMAO..

Talk about putting the cart before the horse.. WOW..

I dealt with him when I interfaced with him on the Hill.

He was frequently in error(lazy on the facts) but never in doubt.

Steve is a voice of reality and hands-on experience on this folks. As disconnected as Paul is with reality Kucinic is possibly worse.

How many times shall we go through this routine, jorge? Just review our previous threads on these topics.

===================

Translation...I have to remember my own stupidity so I'm not always forced to tell someone to go back and read my prior stupidity.


Jorge...now you know why they limit him to 6th graders and a curriculum he must adhere to.


Every time he brings up that moronic "empire building" issue I'm going to call his ass on it. He's the type that when laying sod, needs to keep reading the one sentence instruction: "GREEN SIDE UP."...


A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

I have and obviously it hasn't sunk in for you. You might want to "google" what you think "empire" means. Again can you please show us a comparable map of the "American Empire" to compare or are you just going to slither away?

Yes, I should know better than to discus anything with somebody not man enough to know when he's been proven wrong and instead tries to misdirect. But I'll be right there for you everytime you try and use that empire obsession of yours.

laugh How silly of you even to argue this point which is so openly admitted by your own heroes. OK, I'll find something for you: Here, from wikipedia:
Quote
Columnist Charles Krauthammer says, "People are now coming out of the closet on the word 'empire.'" This embrace of empire is made by many neoconservatives, including British historian Paul Johnson, and writers Dinesh D'Souza and Mark Steyn. It is also made by some liberal hawks, such as political scientist Zbigniew Brzezinski, and Michael Ignatieff.


For further reading, pick up a copy of Pat Buchanan's A Republic, Not An Empire.

Um, this thread reminded me of something. Back when the 2008 campaign spooled up, I watch a couple of the Commiecrat debates. I was instantly struck by the thought that Obama was a black Kucinich.
And that he'd be irrelevant were he white.
Turns out I wasn't that far off, was I?

I don't need to pick up a book to tell me the earth is flat either though there have been many books on the subject. The term emoire is as I described it and even presentes a picture for you and the dope-smoking kook to see. Like your hero Uncle Ho, just because you repeat a lie many times does not make it so. And I see you quoting Krauthammer, a dirty NEOCON according to you when it suits you. The yesterday when one of your kook Paulbot buddies called Reagan one, you didn't have the balls to call him on it. Classic

Krouthammer wasn't condemning the reference to American Empire. He was celebrating the fact that finally, under the Bush/Cheney regime, he and his ilk (neocons like you folks) could say it above a whisper.

Well when they US Flag is staked out all over the map and sections of the globe are painted blue (although you'd probably pick pink in honor of the Code Pink ladies)and under complete American military, political and financial control, their governments abolished in favor of a Colonial Governor then I'll cede the point. Otherwise I'll continue to expose you for the kook that you are.

The funny thing is he actually thinks he's making points rather than coming off like the moronic,wingnut that he is.

Ron Paul picking his cabinet is like me and fantasy football.
