Obama, Apologists

So I have spoken to several people who are strongly in favour of Obama, and basically all of their arguments hang entirely upon this one statement:

SO MUCH BETTER THAN BUSH, MAN.

And when posed with the fact that people elect candidates contingent upon campaign promises, Obama has fallen short. Generally, I like to give the example of his heightening of the war in Afghanistan, and — seriously — the only reply I ever get from them (before they quickly change the subject) is:

“Yeah….”

While I agree with this, I almost feel like trying to reclaim “capitalism” is much like libertarians trying to reclaim “liberal.” It just ain’t gonna happen.

College philosophy classes in a nut shell. AMEN (Taken with instagram)

Also, when people worship things just because they’re told they should.

But you know what’s worse? People who don’t capitalize letters and use “u” in place of “you.”

"As the United States officially ended the war in Iraq last month, President Obama spoke eloquently..."

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 21:23:05 -0500

“As the United States officially ended the war in Iraq last month, President Obama spoke eloquently at Fort Bragg, N.C., lauding troops for “your patriotism, your commitment to fulfill your mission, your abiding commitment to one another,” and offering words of grief for the nearly 4,500 members of the U.S. armed forces who died in Iraq. He did not, however, mention the sacrifices of the Iraqi people.

This inattention to civilian deaths in America’s wars isn’t unique to Iraq. There’s little evidence that the American public gives much thought to the people who live in the nations where our military interventions take place. Think about the memorials on the Mall honoring American sacrifices in Korea and Vietnam. These are powerful, sacred spots, but neither mentions the people of those countries who perished in the conflicts….

These attitudes have consequences. Perhaps the most important one — apart from the tensions created with the host governments, which have been quite vocal in protesting civilian casualties — is that indifference provides permission to our military and political leaders to pursue more interventions.”

“

Do not make the mistake of the ignorant who think that an individualist is a man who says: “I’ll do as I please at everybody else’s expense.” An individualist is a man who recognizes the inalienable individual rights of man—his own and those of others.

An individualist is a man who says: “I will not run anyone’s life—nor let anyone run mine. I will not rule nor be ruled. I will not be a master nor a slave. I will not sacrifice myself to anyone—nor sacrifice anyone to myself.”

Ron Paul on Gay Marriage

fuckmeinthebutthole:

joswilson81:

“I’m supportive of all voluntary associations and people can call it whatever they want. “

“That’s right. That’s your Right under the Constitution and it’s your Right in a free society”

“I don’t want the federal government having a marriage police. I want the states to deal with it. Really, why do we have to have a license to get married? Why don’t we just go to the church? What other individuals do, why can’t we permit them to do whatever they call it that is their problem not mine? Just so nobody else forces their definition of marriage on you. That is what we have to prevent.”

“But, I think the government should just be out of it. I think it should be done by the church or private contract and we shouldn’t have this argument - who’s married and who isn’t married. I have my s|andards but I shouldn’t have to impose my standards on others. Others have standards and they have no right to impose their marriage standards on me. And I just don’t like it. But, if we want to have something to say about marriage, it should be at the state level and not at the federal government. Just get the government out of it.”

Ron Paul refuses to sign the NOM (National Organization for Marriage) pledge
“NOM has reached out to the current crop of Republican presidential candidates to sign the groups pledge. The pledge supports a constitutional amendment that defines marriage as a union between a man and a woman as well as preventing same-sex couples from adopting children. Every candidate has signed the pledge except Ron Paul. Whether you agree with Ron Paul or not, there are times when he steps away from the party line and sticks to his ideology. Though Paul does recognize marriage as one man and one woman, he is against a federal amendment to ban same-sex marriage because it would take power away from the states to legislate the issue locally.” “CNN:Most of our closest allies, including Great Britain and Israel, allow gays and lesbians to openly serve in the military. Is it time to end Don’t ask, don’t tell policy and allow gays and lesbians to serve openly in the US military?

”Ron Paul: I think the current policy is a decent policy. And the problem that we have with dealing with this subject is we see people as groups, as they belong to certain groups and that they derive their rights as belonging to groups. We don’t get our rights because we’re gays or women or minorities. We get our rights from our creator as individuals. So every individual should be treated the same way. So if there is homosexual behavior in the military that is disruptive, it should be dealt with. But if there’s heterosexual sexual behavior that is disruptive, it should be dealt with. So it isn’t the issue of homosexuality, it’s the concept and the understanding of individual rights. If we understood that, we would not be dealing with this very important problem”

On June 8, 2009, the Hon. Ron Paul of Texas voted YES for passage of H.R. 2965 [111th]: Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Repeal Act of 2010

Ron Paul is SO ANTI-GAY omg
