    correct. Which is why I support my positions with evidence.

    Not at all. It is an explanation why you baseless, unsupported blather is meaningless and not worthy of consideration.​

    Your words are not proof and you've demonstrated you are not credible.

    Says the guy who claimed that 2% inflation every year for 40 years is an 80% increase in prices, then instead of admitting he was wrong, claimed he was lying:

    Who's the one making childlike excuses for being wrong? The fact that you'd rather be viewed as a liar instead of simply being viewed as incorrect is either a sign of trolling or mental illness!

    You've already admitted to lying, and it's obvious that this is a lie too. Nobody with an advanced degree in economics would claim that 2% inflation every year amounts to an 80% increase in prices.

    I think what you really have is Narcissitic Personality Disorder. Or you're just trolling.

    Folks can read and decide for themselves who is dishonest.

    Until your argument is destroyed and instead you focus on ad hominem logical fallacies to attack your opponent instead of disproving his argument.
    Much like we've seen in this thread and others.
    You've proven no such thing. That's nothing more than your baseless, unfounded opinion.
    I, along with other folks reading this forum, await your response to post #91.
    correct. Which is why I support my positions with evidence.
    And I don't resort to ignoring posts that refute my argument and instead launch false ad hominem attacks on my opponent's credibility, like you do.
    So have you:
    The fact that you continue to engage in ad hominems like this is just another example of how your credibility is completely shot.

    I can't speak to his emotional state however, some of what he says makes good sense to me, like understanding that Washington is not all about 'bipartisan ship' and shouldn't be because the intent of our system is is compromise through debate. The less legislation able to pass the freer the people are. Then there is this quote

    “Any effort to mandate or enforce the goal of making everyone free from want and fear through government action will guarantee the destruction of the concept of personal liberty,”


    That makes good sense to me too.

    But then...He says this..

    Paul argued, the U.S. should have worked with the Pakisitani government to arrest the al Qaeda leader and put him on trial, like “Blind Sheikh” Omar Abdel Rahman and Khalid Sheikh Mohammad, who still awaits trial in Guantánamo.

    He also seems to promote God in government with:

    “Certainly the drafters of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, both replete with references to God, would be aghast at the federal government’s hostility to religion. The establishment clause of the First Amendment was simply intended to forbid the creation of an official state church like the Church of England, not to drive religion out of public life.”


    Then in a NATIONAL DEBATE he says:

    I think this fence business is designed and may well be used against us and keep us in. In economic turmoil, the people want to leave with their capital. And there’s capital controls and there’s people control. So, every time you think of the fence keeping all those bad people out, think about those fences maybe being used against us, keeping us in.”

    It's like he has an 'Alex Jones' button or somehing.

    You admitted to intentionally posting inaccurate information. That's called lying and you admitted to it.

    You admitted to asserting false mathematical information on purpose, so I have no idea how that isn't considered lying.

    so, when an economist submits a hypothesis to start further investigation, he's lying?

    no wonder you didn't answer my earlier question about your education level

    Its Simple,Ron was 76,and 76 year old men are not elected,that being said,his positions were from the fringe,and were from a "finger-pointing" nature that he was above it and you the voters were the cause of this mess,

    any on here that believes that Paul Wasnt Allowe to win is "pish-posh",,he didnt resonate with the voters,I could see the point if he actually made a run against Romney,He simply didnt and couldnt garner enough votes to win the primary.

    So that leads us to the other Paul Question?why then he didnt do like Johnson and Jump the GOP ship and go all in with the Libertarians?
    I personally think he never actually wanted to be POTUS,but to start a movement and change the electorate,as we found out in this last election the Dems had the game covered by a nice margin.

    The upcoming midterms will be telling,if somehow the Dems capture a majority again,the USA will be headed for major changes that will be longlived.

    Dr Paul was never more than a parrot in 12 terms,A total abuser of the pork/earmarks and at the same time scolding his house for excessive spending

    another pathetic post from someone not aware of the facts.He didnt do what Johnson did because he tried that once in 88 running as an independent it he didnt get anywhere near as close as he did this time.he ran under the republican ticket even though he himself has said both parties are corrupt because the independent never wins.get with the program and wake the hell up.he did not win because the establishment sabotgoed his campaine making last minute rule changes at the RNC convention sabatoging his great strategey he got to win the republican nomination and romney stole the nomination from him in the ohio primarys where vote fraud happened.:weed:

    I don't think the respected Ron Paul, or Rand for that matter is emotionally suseptable as was the recently (Kruchev like fist pounding) Hillary Clinton.

    By your signature I see that your a Trther,and to come to "defense" of Mr Paul in this manner albeit lacking of actual facts to support your contention,,how again did Romney "steal" the primary?or was it Paul did not garner enough support of the electorate its that simple,,he lost,no conspiracy here,and in 88 he didnt "jump" from the GOP in mid election to the Libertarians he ran as one

    this just shows that its easy for the media to brainwash you,that you worship them to no end.no I gave you facts,you blatantly ignored them.If you had done any research,you would know that there were people that were told to go to a counting booth to count the votes and they said karl rove was in charge of counting the votes.how much your bosses paying you to keep blatantly ignoring facts and making up lies?

    oh and thanks for proving you ditched junior high school science classes because you obviously dont know anything at all about the laws of physics or you would know my user name is the truth.lol. I would challenge you to that debate but since you cowardly ignored my facts i presented how they sabatoged his campaine,i know you will do the same exact same thing there in that section so no since in bothering.

    your posts are that of a hypocrite because your posts always consist of baseless,unsupported meaningless blather not worthy of consideration. The good doctor hit the nail right on the head about you and your credibility being shot just liek all ron paul bashers.​

    Yeah Iriman,you need to look in the mirror when saying someone who lies.People prove that all the time in how you always do all the time and then you play dodgeball and refuse to acknowledge the black and white.
