Huntington's disease is a really bad actor. I find him a sympathetic character in that sense.

Those who claim to want Liberty but...Good one, BP.<br /><br />Those who claim to want Liberty but oppose Paul blow my mind. With Liberty comes responsibility.<br /><br />Oh wait, I just answered the question I was going to ask...<br /><br />It's the responsibility thing, isn't it?<br /><br />Hate to break the news but, it's the responsibility thing that has lost us our liberty. "We ain't got none" We quit being responsible a long time ago. Proof? Look where we're at today and then ask yourself what you did to try to prevent it. :)<br /><br /><br />Besides, Paul without a good number of like minded folk in the congress would be like, well, like obama or Santorum or Mittens or any of the other members of the political machine, one of whom will certainly be our next President. Nothing would get done except through the signing of unconstitutional Executive Orders. And Paul won't do that. Why not? Because he believes in The Constitution. And guess what? He's THE ONLY ONE who believes in The Constitution. And he won't be elected because of what? He's a kook? (He's not) No, because he is a Libertarian. Libertarians believe in the concept of Liberty. Liberty requires responsibility. Amerikans do not want to be responsible. That would interfere with the NFL, NHL, NBA, MLB, MLS, NASCAR... Which ones did I miss?<br /><br />Meet the new Boss. He's the same as the old Boss. We won't get fooled again. LOL.<br /><br />Sadly, I think that there is only one inevitable ending to this story... It ain't gonna be pretty.<br /><br />Thanks for the space to rant, BP.<br /><br />Stay safe.<br /><br />:)Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04775073594938909298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-29747100797349474192012-02-21T17:09:15.517-05:002012-02-21T17:09:15.517-05:00Quoted and linked at http://greenmnts.blogspot.com...Quoted and linked at http://greenmnts.blogspot.com/2012/02/spread-this-far-and-wide.html<br /><br />Outstanding.Toaster 802https://www.blogger.com/profile/17034456844621365910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-91264229105645153652012-02-21T16:59:01.631-05:002012-02-21T16:59:01.631-05:00Dear Sir!
