Slogans And Intentions

I was commenting on the sad state of the Republican Party and got this interesting comment from Bram.

Why do you think there is so much displeasure with the nominees? The party is convulsing right now.

When is the last time the Republicans actually delivered some economic freedom?

The Democratic Party is basically the opposite – social freedom / economic control – except that the never seem to deliver the social freedom.

Funny how Ron Paul puts them both on the defensive since neither can deliver on their core issues.

To which I replied (in part):

Bram has it down. Both parties have liberty slogans and totalitarian intentions. And Ron Paul is nailing it.

When the Illinois primary comes around I’m voting for Ron Paul if he is on the ballot. Despite the fact that he has no clue about foreign policy. Let those who think they are in charge take note.

Consent of the governed bitchez.
