Originally posted by utherpendragonSo what is the key to getting people to see this stuff if we are not willing to talk about it? After all, we have block heads who support these statists so if no one bothers to sound the alarm what is the alternative? Also, do you think Washington has been infested by statists? Are there any there who would not fit the statist or neostatist definition?
I have this same book ,its good reading.But,for many here, its like "throwing pearls to the swine".

Originally posted by utherpendragonI think of Ron Paul when I think of conservatives in Washington today. I keep remembering the presidential debates and how the Republicans treated him like some kind of crazed radical outsider. It was disgusting. I just wished the man had some charisma and better communicating abilites. I think it is what is needed if that kind of message is going to get out. As for people like Palin and company, I think anyone outside Washington looks like a conservative. Heck, most of the left posters on this site would look conservative if compared to the radical statists objectives of those in Washington today. That is one of the reasons I prefer governors to be elected over Senators as a rule.
She is not in washington but I think Palin is the best thing to come along since sliced bread! I like Steele,Huckabee,Ron Paul has some good ideas w/ some not so good . What say you? Is there any ?
Originally posted by whodeyI know what your saying about R.Paul. I like alot of what he stands for but he lacks the charisma and appeal to succeed in this media driven society.As far as Palin,I think her own party is more against her then the democrats.

Originally posted by utherpendragonJust like Ron Paul. Well I guess that tells us where the Republican party is at. Perhaps they should be renamed the Neo-Statist party?
