- Taking Heat Over Ron Paul

- As expected, Ron Paul supporters have
been excoriating me via email and all over the Internet because I brought
up his vote to allow sexual deviants to openly serve in our military in
this column. Nothing new. This Ron Paul supporter says I'm "sort of an embarrassment" because of
my firm belief that what God says is His word and I will not "set
aside" God for any candidate. He was referring to this column I wrote in June 2008.
Every email basically said the same thing: Ron Paul is too important to
this country because he's going after the Federal Reserve, as if Ron Paul
invented the idea. One indignant female said in her email if it wasn't
for Ron Paul, I wouldn't even know about the Federal Reserve and how bad
it is for this country. Really?
When I ran for Congress in '94 & '96, that was the key item on my platform:
abolishing the Fed, the income tax, getting us out of the communist UN
and abolishing unconstitutional cabinets. The first time I ran I changed
to the American Independent Party (very conservative) because I knew I
couldn't beat Herger the first time as a Republican in the primary even
though I had voted Republican since I was 18 years old. I ended up with
the highest vote total for any independent in the state for the '94 general
election because so many Republicans changed their voter registration to
vote for me, but old Waffle Wally "won".
The second time I ran, I went back to the Republican Party. I knew I could
beat Herger; his votes for NAFTA and GATT angered a whole lot of his base
voters. Independent polling showed me only 5% - 7% behind Herger only three
weeks before the primary in March 1996 in the largest county; there were
no scandals or last minute revelations. On election night one minute after
the polls closed, Herger was announced the winner 86-14 in all ten
counties in the district. The numbers were exactly the same the next
morning even though counting by electronic voting machines allegedly continued
well past midnight. Of course, it didn't help that even though I was legally
on the ballot, my name was left off the ballot in the biggest precinct
in the largest county; people had to write in my name. It was surreal.
When I sent a formal complaint to the Republican Secretary of State, he
said sue the state. That would have required thousands of dollars, which
I didn't have left in my campaign account. That's when I left the Republican
Party and have been an independent voter ever since.
I campaigned for three years in that district on the issues cited above
and allegedly lost both times, but that's what electronic voting machines
and scanners are for - to steal our elections and keep the band aid pushers
in office. Here are a few examples of what was written about me during
my run for Congress and a couple of other items from the old dust
bin of history. The newspapers in that district sent their least experienced
reporters to cover me, so for the most part they accurately reported what
I said during interviews and debates.
The incumbent, Waffle Wally Herger, who sold out this country when he voted
for NAFTA and GATT, has been the big winner going on 21 years, sitting
on his backside collecting a paycheck for doing nothing but proposing more
band aids. Some of Herger's supporters tried to make an issue out of my
residency because I left California for a few years due to my husband being
transferred to Ft. Carson, Colorado, as the Director of Engineering and
Housing while he was still a Colonel in the Army. It didn't work. However,
with the exception of one small newspaper, all the big ones in that district
endorsed "their boy" over me; those are the exact words one editor
told me during my "big" interview.
Dozens and dozens of Republican candidates over the years have run on the
same platform. Every single one of us from many states allegedly have been
defeated during primaries except Ron Paul. But, he's lived in his district
for decades and enjoys strong support.
I can't count the number of emails I've received literally screeching we
must vote for Ron Paul because he will abolish the Federal Reserve,
get rid of the income tax, get us out of the UN and so forth. The only
problem being a president in this country has no constitutional authority
to do any of those things; Art. II, Sec. II. Not by Executive order or
otherwise. The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 was an act passed by the U.S.
Congress and only they can abolish it via legislation. While the Sixteenth
Amendment was never ratified by enough states, the income tax is enforced
using a law that doesn't exist; it also has to be abolished by Congress
as well as ending the U.S.'s participation in the UN. If Ron Paul were
to be elected, he can encourage his party to pursue those goals or even
veto spending bills, but since the "FED" is privately owned and
receives no funding from Congress that's a non option.
Besides, what's happening in this country economically is going to send
tens of millions of Americans into shock in the near future. Whoever gets
elected won't be sworn in until January 2013. What should have been done
decades ago will now visit more hell and misery on this country because
the "Fed" wasn't abolished. That's why it's so critical states
of the Union pass sound money bills, which they haven't except for a watered
down version in Utah.
Congressman Paul said this to justify voting to repeal
DADT:
"I have received several calls and visits from constituents who, in
spite of the heavy investment in their training, have been forced out of
the military simply because they were discovered to be homosexual,"
Paul said Friday. "To me, this seems like an awful waste. Personal
behavior that is disruptive should be subject to military discipline regardless
of whether the individual is heterosexual or homosexual. But to discharge
an otherwise well-trained, professional, and highly skilled member of the
military for these reasons is unfortunate and makes no financial sense."
Ron Paul is a pro-life doctor and I have supported him in the past because
he is for life, not murdering unborn babies. However, he knows how dangerous
fecal sex is and all the diseases associated with sodomy - not to mention
the spread of AIDS:
CDC: Homosexual men account for 61% of new HIV infections
but only 2% of population
If you read my column, Wait gunny - I have to change my diaper, which many
had a problem reading because of the revolting facts regarding "gay
sex", it is simply inconsistent for Ron Paul to support such dangerous
behavior. For him to continue to repeat sexual deviants are "born
that way" is to completely ignore science and proof there is no such
thing as a "gay gene".
Second, I have a problem with his logic that repealing DADT will save we
the taxpayers money by allowing sexual deviants to remain in the military.
For all the reasons I put forth in my gunny and the diaper column, that's
a sorry excuse if I ever heard one. If you owned a business, would you
hire employees you know in advance are going to cause a problem with the
rest of the workforce, cause a huge drain on financial resources (in this
case health care) and lower morale? As I have written so many times: Our
military is all volunteer. When individuals enlist, they know the rules
up front. Prior to DADT, sexual deviants were not allowed in the military.
After Billy Clinton's DADT, sodomites enlisted and then screamed they were
being discriminated against for being discharged because of their sexual preferences they
knew were taboo. Well, for now, the morally bankrupt have won one battle.
Here is where many libertarians have a problem with me: It's about what
God made very clear in the Holy Bible (KJV): sodomy is an abomination.
The vile things lesbians do to each other is also a sin. Ron Paul has a
different opinion, which he's entitled to:
Being 'gay'
a sin? Ron Paul can't say
"Only months after announcing his candidacy for president, Rep. Ron
Paul, R-Texas, declared that he could not judge homosexuality as a sin
and affirmed his support for the military's "don't ask, don't tell"
policy - a rule the Obama administration has indicated it plans to repeal
altogether. In an interview on "The American View" on Aug. 25,
2007, host John Lofton asked Paul, "Do you believe [homosexuality]
is a sin?"
"I'm not as judgmental about that probably because of my medical background,
so I don't see it in that simplistic terms," Paul said. "I think
it's a complex issue to decide whether it is sin or other problems with
the way people are born. It's, to me, too complex to give an answer as
simple as that."
While I don't try to shove my religion in anyone's face, I am a very devout
Christian. My relationship with God and Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior
is a part of who I am. A belief system scoffed at by many Ron Paul supporters,
but I will not put my soul in jeopardy just because people think Ron Paul
can somehow magically get rid of the Federal Reserve. It's the same as the
myth that Ronald Reagan's carefully scripted photo op challenging
Gorbechev to "tear down this wall" bringing about the collapse
of communism in the Soviet Union.
I know of one Christian pastor who vigorously endorses Ron Paul in his
columns as the only candidate who can save America. That certainly is his
choice, but for me, God's word trumps political candidates. Our destiny
lies in His hands because the battle we fight is good vs evil and God will
only bestow His blessings upon a moral nation.
Like Ron Paul, I want our troops brought home now, today, from the grotesque,
constitutional invasions and occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan. Get all
out troops out of Pakistan and this latest insanity in Libya. And, while
the repeal of DADT would have passed without Ron Paul's vote, to me it
was a slap in God's face and giving his support not only to sin, but to
endorse the further spreading of diseases because of the type of dangerous
sex preferred by sodomites. To do this to our military is unconscionable
- especially during those never ending, undeclared "wars" in
the Middle East.
When Bill Clinton shoved DADT down America's throat, Republicans were up
in arms! They were outraged! It was a huge controversy and the political
pounding against a Democrat was relentless.
Ron Paul, a Republican, votes to further cause massive problems in our
military by repealing DADT, but gets a free pass from a lot of Republicans,
many who identify themselves as Christians.
Now, whose the hypocrite?
One woman in her email even blamed me for the bill: "Why are you laying
the blame for this legislation at the feet of Ron Paul? He didn't even
sponsor the bill!! The SENATE passed it."
No where in my gunny/ diaper column did I "blame Ron Paul for the
bill" and what does the senate passing a bill have to do with it?
Ron Paul serves in the house, not the senate. His votes are a matter of
public record. She gets my favorite bumper sticker: It's time to pull over
and change the air in your head.
I share the same opinion of millions, including Ron Paul, that the "war
on drugs" is an insane waste of time and money and is putting "lesser
offenders" in prisons where they don't belong. I have and still support his bills to decriminalize
industrial hemp. I'm not going to go into it right now in great
depth, but it wasn't until rogue elements inside government agencies began
running drugs into this country that the problem mushroomed. Many may not
remember back in the late '90s when socialist congresswoman, Maxine Waters, began
to dig into the CIA's drug running, but if one takes the time
to read credible books and articles, you will come to the same conclusion:
a gutless Congress has turned a blind eye to it and laundering drug money
through the big banks on Wall Street.
Ron Paul wants all drugs legalized (cocaine, heroin, meth, etc). The argument
is about money and violence. Again, Ron Paul, is a medical doctor. He knows
how highly addictive those three drugs are and if he doesn't know the statistics
regarding violence and meth use (especially domestic violence), he needs
to get caught up. Addiction to those drugs isn't going to make people stop
using them just because they become cheap by making them legal. Addicts
will just be able to buy more. Here in the small town where I live, 82
children are in foster care because their parents are druggies. Do people
really believe making meth, heroin or cocaine legal and cheap is going
to get those addicted off the path of killing themselves in slow motion?
Ron Paul's message of freedom and liberty has been powerful, but, and again
this always gets me in trouble: hard core libertarians confuse licentiousness
with liberty. (licentiousness: sexually unrestrained; lascivious; libertine;
lewd; unrestrained by law or general morality; lawless; immoral; going
beyond customary or proper bounds or limits; disregarding rules.) Anyone
who claims porn, addiction to drugs like meth, cocaine, heroin and abortion
and sodomy are harmless as long as the person "doing it" doesn't
hurt someone else is either naive or is ignoring what the aforementioned
has done to our country over the past few decades.
And, speaking of socialists: "Rep. Ron Paul
(R-Texas) says he would consider putting the liberal congressman Dennis
Kucinich (D-Ohio) in his Cabinet if he wins the presidency in 2012."
I listed 72 members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) in my
Blind Loyalty booklet in back 1996. Both Mad Max Waters and Kucinich are members. No
individual who is a socialist should ever be allowed to serve in the U.S.
Congress because their political agenda is destroy this republic and they
cannot uphold their oath of office. Not to mention, Kucinich has a dangerous bill in the Housewhich clearly
shows either his ignorance on the subject or his desire to see the unconstitutional
"Federal" Reserve Banking System remain intact - just the opposite
of the bill to abolish it introduced by Ron Paul.
-
- Ron Paul, "champion of the Constitution", would
consider putting a socialist in his cabinet just because Kucinich is anti-war?
Third is the issue of Ron Paul and Obama/Soetoro's ineligibility over his
dual citizenship:

Dear Mr. Sorensen:
Thank you for contacting my office regarding Barack Obama. My staff has
researched the issue of his citizenship. Our [emphasis mine]
research has led us to conclude that the state of Hawaii has issued a valid
birth certificate showing that Barack Obama was born in the United States.
Of course, I remain committed to fighting for limited, constitutional government,
and I am actively opposing President Obama's big government agenda. Thank
you again for contacting my office. Please feel free to do so in the future
with any other questions, comments, or suggestions.
Sincerely,
Ron Paul
A valid birth certificate? Apparently Ron Paul hasn't seen Worldnetdaily's
coverage on that issue for the past year. For someone who has spend nearly
four decades defending the U.S. Constitution and on an issue that is tearing
this country apart, Dr. Paul believes - despite Obama/Soetoro's own admission
he was born with dual citizenship - that Barry was eligible to run. Oh,
come on.
For someone who is known as the "champion of the Constitution",
what did Ron Paul do on the one day it mattered most to stand up for that
document? He sat silent.
On January 9, 2009, despite the massive controversy raging across this
country over Obama/Soetoro's citizenship problem, Ron Paul and every single
member of Congress made no objection to the electoral college count and
a cheap thug from Chicago was declared president of this country. Not one
member of Congress, not Michelle Bachmann, not Ron Paul, not one of them
had the courage to stand up for the U.S. Constitution that day and stop
Obama/Soetoro from pulling off one of the greatest frauds in the history
of this country.[1]
-
- How do his supporters defend that? With more excuses
and I've heard them all; none of them impress me. I'm tired of hearing
it would have been dangerous for him, it would have ruined his career,
blah, blah, blah. Standing up for the Constitution isn't about a career,
it's about the oath Ron Paul took along with all the other outlaws who
were in Congress on that day of infamy. Respect is earned and on that day,
I lost a great deal of respect for Ron Paul. I own most of the books he's
written and recommend them. Ron Paul has had many critical bills that went
no where in Congress, but I supported them. Had I been elected to Congress
way back when, I would have introduced them myself. However, that does
not excuse his refusal to address such an obvious fraud as Obama/Soetoro's
eligibility.
As has been screamed at me in emails from his supporters, no candidate
is perfect. So very true. However, for the reasons stated above, I will
not vote for him again. Each of us has the right to support and vote for
the candidate of our choice. After looking at a candidate's voting record,
not 30 second sound bites or speeches, each of us must make the personal
decision of who to vote for even if others disagree. As the days progress
with the GOP candidates fighting it out, the most common complaint I get
in emails is there's no one to vote for, again. Hold your nose and vote
or I'm going to vote for one of them to vote against Obama/Soetoro. Anybody
but Obama. Another sad state of affairs.
I don't believe the Red in the White House will be the DNC nominee because
the lawsuits to keep him off the ballot will hit early next year, mark
my words. Barry's handlers know it and the clock is ticking. Despite the
worthless gas from the media and pundits from "both sides of the isle",
Hillary the Hun, will not run for president in 2012. She recently stated
for the third time she will not run for public office again. I believe
for health reasons; she is going back to advocacy work to further spread
her poison. Who does that leave for the Democrats? One of their old retreads?
Who knows, which is why I pay little attention to the meaningless hot air.
Sheriff Joe's investigation into Obama/Soetoro (new coverage), I believe, is going to blow this whole
thing wide open and hopefully Barry will be indicted and charged for all
his crimes, including wire fraud which carries decades in a federal prison
if convicted.
You can find the voting record for all the candidates running for president
if they have served in public office simply by typing into a search engine,
i.e,: Ron
Paul on the issues:
Protect all voluntary associations; don't define marriage. (Oct 2007)
Give illegals limbo status: a green card with an asterisk. (Apr 2011)
Sending 12M illegals home won't & shouldn't happen. (Apr 2011)
Yes, Congressman Paul. Let's give a free pass to those who break into our
house, steal our jobs and drain precious resources from the states on the
backs of hard working Americans by allowing illegals to stay here.
Below are several columns by Kelleigh Nelson on GOP candidates. She isn't
just a talented writer, Kelleigh is a meticulous researcher. You may be
disappointed, but you will be well informed to make a decision on election
day. Let me add one thing Kelleigh didn't cover about Hermann Cain:
Electing Cain would be like putting the fox in the hen house. Cain is a
former deputy chairman (1992-94) and chairman (1995-96) of the board of
directors to the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. He knows nothing
about the disabilities of our monetary system except his support for toxic
fiat currency. Cain also stated on his radio show that the "FED"
should not be audited. I don't know if he's received enough heat to change
his mind. I wouldn't hire someone who worked for my enemy.
His 9-9-9 proposal is more rubbish. 9% corporate tax, 9% income tax and
9% national sales tax, which would finally kill off our economy, although
it's just about DOA anyway. Double taxation: 9% sales tax and 9% income
tax. Say, there's a good deal! More money for the banking cartel!
If Cain had any inkling of the history of the "income" tax and
the intent of those who actually wrote the U.S. Constitution, he wouldn't
make such a proposal. Not to mention the fact that every penny extorted
by the IRS - every penny - goes to pay down the debt created by the thieves
in the Outlaw Congress and what are known as transfer payments: the illegal
stealing from us to give to the communist UN (United Nothing), the IMF
(International Monetary Fund), World Bank, BIS (Bank of International Settlements).
Not a penny taken from your paycheck by the IRS funds a single function of the federal government.
Every penny is from borrowing and that's why the "national" debt
is almost $15 trillion bux.
Additionally, like all the candidates, he makes statements that have no
constitutional basis as it relates to the authority given a president:
Cain: If I win, I'll prosecute CAIR
"Presidential candidate Herman Cain says that if he were in the Oval
Office he would prosecute the Council on American-Islamic Relations and
other Islamic groups in the U.S. that have been linked to the Palestinian
terrorist group Hamas and its parent, the Muslim Brotherhood."
I agree those America hating groups should be investigated. Is Cain running
for Attorney General? A president doesn't have the authority to prosecute
anyone.
That's the problem with Hermann Cain. No matter how nice or patriotic he
is, he either doesn't understand or he chooses (like Romney, Bachmann,
Perry, Saint Sarah Palin, Santorum and Huntsman) to ignore how the systems
are stealing us blind and continue to propose nothing but more of the same,
just packaged with different wrapping.
