I said nothing about control. I said "interference". Totally different thing.

So in your mind control and interference are not the same thing when it comes to government intervention?

There's plenty of government control. There is no government interference, for the reason stated above.

That is a matter of opinion, not fact. Care to back that up with some examples?

Has TGRR ever been well outside America's borders for any great length of time? I have, and that's why I say TGRR is full of it. Brown-eyed. Not yet endowed with indepth understanding.

I have to agree with that. I don't really believe you can have both. I am in favor of personal freedom and regulated corporations, because corporations will not regulate or police themselves, regardless of what conservatives believe. They have proven that, over and over and over.

Ron Paul is actually somewhat creepier than the people who were in charge during the Bush admin. Sure, Cheney was an evil fuck...but he was pretty indiscriminate in who he is was being an evil fuck to. Ron Paul's associations with the militia movement is...disturbing, given the prevalence of fundamentalist Christian, sexist and racist sentiment amongst those organizations. He is close friends with Gary North, for example, who thinks America should be under Biblical law (such as stoning adulterers to death and barring public office from anyone insufficiently Christian - which amusingly includes most mainstream Christian groups). And there are disturbing themes in the Ron Paul Survival Report, which he either knew about or was too incompetent to check on, neither of which looks good.
Wow. I didn't know that. That's scary.
