2) Sourcing your information is highly recommended. Plagiarism will get you banned.
3) Please create a new thread for a new topic, even if you think it might not get a lot of responses. Do not create mega-threads.
4) If you think the subject of a thread is not important enough to merit a post, simply avoid posting in it. If enough people agree, it will fall off the page soon enough.

Oh yeah. He's crazy.
But when given the list of choices this year gave us, crazy wasn't such a bad alternative. I'll never vote for the lesser of two evils. I think it's wrong. I can live with crazy, though. Compared to evil or less evil, crazy doesn't seem so bad.

Except it really isn't evil. It's wrong, less wrong, and right about most things, but crazy fanatical on all the things he's wrong about. (Like claiming income tax is un-Constitutional. Except it has its own amendment...(16th)..)

So you still disagree then.
Thanks for the update. And you still take everything I say too literally. Was I calling the candidates evil, or was I simply using a phrase that many others are using to describe their choice in this election? ("The lesser of two evils.")

I wasn't taking it literally. I was just pointing out that crazy might be considered the lesser of
three evils, because when Ron Paul is wrong, he is
crazy wrong.

Please stop calling him that. It was old less than a month after he was elected, and he's been in office for five years now.
If I show up at your door, chances are you did something to bring me there.
