 | Ron Paul and the "Wasted Vote" nonsense Apologies for the crappy syncing. Here's a transcript: Reasons why Ron Paul won't win so don't vote for him makes NO sense. 1. If you are a Democrat, the front runners -- Barak & Hillary, have both promised military action against Iran, Barak even advocating nuclear action. Hillary & Barak also speak regularly at fundraisers for AIPAC [explained in video] If you are a Republican, the front runners (in fact virtually everyone that isn't Ron Paul) wants to keep these wars going, and that results in huge debts that can only be paid off in taxes. The historical Republican principle has been "stay out of wars" and "stay out of debt!" So if you're worried that voting for Ron Paul will cause you to "waste your vote," just remember that voting for these other candidates, who are pro-war, pro-debt, and pro-espionage, is an even bigger waste. 2. Assuming you don't have a problem with Clinton, Obama, Giuliani, or McCain, but you think their odds are better than RP's, and you don't think your one vote for Ron Paul would make enough of a difference to get him into office; just remember, your one vote isn't enough to get any of the others into office either! If you're so sure one of the others is bound to win anyway, what difference does it make if you vote Ron Paul? They'll still win, just like if you voted for them. But at least they'll win by less! Or, maybe enough of you will see this before the Republican primary, and enough of you will vote your conscience and Ron Paul will get elected. 3. If enough support for Ron Paul is recognized, future candidates may be forced to start implementing some (or maybe all!) of his policies, in order to steal support from libertarian-leaning candidates. I don't know if that's good or bad, but hey! let's just pretend it's good. 4. The top-tier candidates are very similar to each other, not to Ron Paul. In the past, people complained that Nader stole the election from Kerry, as if Kerry was closer to Nader than he was to Bush -- keep in mind, Kerry took money from the same IG's and corporations as Bush did, and he was pro-war and pro-Israel too. He just wanted to invade "differently" (BS). Today, we're seeing something similar. Top-tier candidates are promoting the same pro-war, pro-Israel, neoconservative ideology. Hilary gets donations from Rupert Murdoch. Anti-war activists criticize Barak Obama's Iran position. Giuliani & McCain want to spend spend spend! There's no truth to the "lesser of two evils" thing, they're ALL evil! So don't waste your vote on evils with higher probabilities (what? you wanna be able to say "I picked the winner"?) Waste your vote on a moral candidate with lesser probability! In the end, no matter which way you spin it, there's really no reason not to vote your conscience. SO -- for those of you who have come to realize that this time around, that better candidate is none other than Ron Paul -- register for the primary elections in your state and vote Ron Paul! If you're in a state with a closed primary, you're going to have to register as a Republican. I know some of you detest the idea, but remember it's for a good cause. Thanks.

She enjoyed bombarding Iraq too?!?! http://www.ontheissues.org/Senate/Hillary_Clinton.htmWar_+_Peace Voted for Iraq war based on available info; now would not.**(Apr 2007) Critic of Iraq war, but won't recant 2002 vote in its favor. (Nov 2006) Regrets Bush's handling of war, but not her war vote. (Oct 2006) Voted NO on redeploying troops out of Iraq by July 2007. (Jun 2006) Voted YES on investigating contract awards in Iraq & Afghanistan. (Nov 2005) Voted YES on requiring on-budget funding for Iraq, not emergency funding. (Apr 2005) Voted YES on $86 billion for military operations in Iraq & Afghanistan. (Oct 2003) Voted YES on authorizing use of military force against Iraq. (Oct 2002) Condemns anti-Muslim bigotry in name of anti-terrorism. (Oct 2001) **Fact that the "info" was already "available": http://www.iaea.org/NewsCenter/Statements/2003/ebsp2003n006.shtml Hillary Clinton speaking for AIPAC: http://www.senate.gov/~clinton/news/statements/record.cfm?id=268474 Conclusion: Obama & Clinton are not anti-war. They're fakes. And they speak for groups that spy on the American public. They are corrupt as hell. What's worse is they're Democrats, so on top of getting increased militarism you also get the continued liberal destruction of our economy. What could be more American than death AND taxes?!?! VOTE LIBERTY! VOTE RON PAUL. |

 | MISSISSAUGA KHAN'd MISSISSAUGA BETRAYED! A recent letter ot the editor of the Mississauga News says it all. "THE MISSISSAUGA NEWS Wasted vote Dear Editor: The Mississauga News Jan 10, 2007 Wasted vote Last year I took two hours out of my very busy work week to vote for the Liberals and Wajid Khan, and now I completely regret even voting. When I voted for the Liberals I voted for the party that I believed in and I did not vote for the conservatives, and now I find myself living in a riding under Tory rule. The Canadian judicial system is a complete joke. If a member of a political party find themselves in a position where they can no longer be loyal to their party, they should resign or sit as independent. Wajid Khan has clearly left the Liberals to further his own political career and obviously does not care about the people who voted him into parliament in the first place. A newsletter sent out by Wajid Khan last summer completely blasted Stephen Harper and the Conservatives and Wajid asked, "What is the one thing you would have Stephen Harper change?" That is an easy question. Allowing Wajid Khan to cross the floor. M. D. Mississauga" Signed, The (Is there NO BOTTOM to this BUCKET?!) Mississauga Muse |
