Should be getting more exposure.





Quote:
The corrupting influences that special interests have over our political system have never been stronger. Politicians in Washington, D.C. are completely beholden to these special interest groups to fund their political campaigns. It is time that someone stands-up against the power of the big checks, the bundled checks and the corporate checks.

I am the only candidate with legislative, executive, and private-sector experience. Issues: Fair Trade. No Tax Loopholes. No Special Interests. Energy Innovation & Independence. $100 Donation Limit



I've researched his history, looked into his proposals, and looked at his beliefs and goals, and I have to say, if I was a citizen of the USA, and this guy somehow got the nomination for the GOP, that I'd vote republican.

I just can't understand why the good candidates get ignored while Perry and Bachmann get tons of undeserved coverage for their insanity.


Edited to fix video.

I've counted 2 so far(in my opinions at least), Buddy Roemer, and Gary Johnson. Ron Paul would be an ok choice, but I think that there's far more hype around him than is warranted or deserved.

We just clicked by the GOP debate. Why is Bachman dressed like an Admiral?

I'd vote for him too, but his main platform is to severely reform campaign finance rules. The big money boys that fund the GOP won't let him in.

I haven't researcged the guy but I've heard it said he's essentially Ron Paul without Ron Paul's cult following.

Which pretty much just makes him a random goof.

A name that means Good or Handsome? Still better than "Buddy."

If Obama turned water to wine, Varus would complain about his lack of originality.

This should surprise absolutely nobody.

Edited for better funny.

I seem to recall an old Navy joke (not about the clothing store), about how a "buddy" is someone who, when you can't get shore leave, will go into town and get two blow jobs and bring one back for you.

We had a cop killed on duty last spring named Buddy Christian.

We were like, seriously? The name is so heartstringy-tuggy that it's almost too much.

They named a road after him. (The previous name was just "Beaverdam Road" and the beavers in question moved out decades ago.)

So now I drive on Buddy Christian Way when I go visit a friend....

Ha. In the Navy you have your name written on the back of your pants so the guy behind you knows who you are.*

* Honest to (Whatever creation myth you believe in) explanation. Further explanation is that in the Navy chances are extremely high that you're going to be climbing lots of ladders, so you'll be looking at that more often than someone's chest for their name. That doesn't make it sound any less gay, though.

Off your govn approved meds today? Please show me where i've praised obama's friendliness.. But glad to see like every typical liberal you're willing to fabricate data and lie in order to make an idiotic point.


It wasn't being pointed out that you ever praised him for being friendly, because you haven't. It was being pointed out that you ***** incessantly about him being friendly. So basically, yeah, you've said he was friendly, but you haven't been saying it like it's a good thing, hence, you're lying when you say that he's not friendly, because you've complained about him being so.

Reading comprehension, you didn't do well with that in school, did you?
