    It's like 200 vs 1 in here. I admire the fact that he's held it together this long against those odds. This is why I only lurk in the debate forum. Because I'm an "evil" republican. But I do enjoy the back and forth on here. Very informative.

    There's also the creepy but seemingly inevitable part where a winger is losing his **** and starts with detailed sexual references that read more like letters to penthouse than political arguments. (shiver) Yuck.

    Go back and read my paragraph (and the link within it) repeatedly until you understand that I have been against the war on drugs since the 1980s.

    Tool.

    you are either lying or confused - probably a combination of both.

    please provide proof that ron paul took $1.7 million dollars from the founder of paypal...ive asked you to do this in another thread and you ran away.

    im just trying to ensure that glynch is accurate...ron paul did not take $1.7 million anymore than obama took $1 million from bill maher.

    and why is the paypal guy bad, but bill maher isnt? why is ron paul bad for having super pacs, but obama isnt? why are the koch brothers bad, but george soros isnt?

    Northside Middle School.

    They are the best according to the cheerleaders. In reality we sucked.

    Because thiel is really horrible politically. He's one of these adolescent ayn rand jag-offs who basically has devoted his free time to recreating Rapture from the game bioshock. I don't have any interest in living in his objectivist wet dream universe and I doubt you or most non-crazy people would either.

    Bill Maher is your standard California liberal. He's made some dumb statements about vaccines and medicine but that's about it as far as openly being stupid. He's much better (and much funnier) than Thiel.

    Why are the Libertarian Koch brothers bad? Well, considering that you take every opportunity to distance yourself from them I don't need to explain that one. But anyway - what about Soros? Agree, Soros' currency speculation can be pitched as destabilizing (though an objectivist wouldn't think so...and would celebrate him.) to foreign markets, but his non-commercial activiites are generally pretty laudable, open socieites, democracy, human rights etc.

    The Koch's (other than glam-charity projects like Ballets, performing arts etc) tend to devote their "non-profit" political activities into one that directly align with their self interest - i.e., allowing them to put mercury in your water and tax themselves less for doing so.

    So what? It's frustrating when people (you) don't understand.
