Tells Magazine It's Just A Leaf; Spokesman Says Governor Was Joking

You get the sense that the country is desperate for someone to show us the way. Not the old way. Not the same way, but a NEW WAY. Think about this for a minute. What if we pulled all of our troops out of South Korea? They''ve been there for 50 years. Tens of thousands of them. What if we quit worrying about Iran, but instead, realized that its having a nuclear weapon will not mean the end of the world? What if we pulled all of our troops out of Iraq, and brought them all home? What if we realistically addressed the National Debt, and paid attention to REALLY DOING SOMETHING about stopping illegal immigration? These are the ideas Republican Presidential candidate, Dr. Ron Paul. He''s a ten term Congressman and a physician who has delivered over 4,000 babies. Ron Paul has been married to the same woman for more than 50 years, which means he doesn''t come to the race with the sort of baggage some of the other candidates for the White House do. Paul is given to mulling things over morally. He once was once a pious Lutheran, but now attends a Baptist church. He never travels alone with women, and once even dressed down an aide for using the expression "red-light district" in front of a female colleague. I support the 2008 candidacy of Congressman, Ron Paul for President of The United States. Candidates with the high level of personal integrity and track record of adherance to The Constitution Ron Paul always demonstrates only come around once in a lifetime, if we''re lucky. Go Ron!

Someones got to tell you what to do, your country is going down the tubes and you Americans don''''t seem to be doing anything about it. Now if what happens to the U.S. wasn''''t going to affect us we wouldn''''t give a rat''''s a-s-s but unfortunately that won''''t be the case.

You got that right.
Canada, Mexico, indeed all of both north and South American continents has depended on the United States military for protection for that last one hundred years.

I Just wish I could contest the rest of your comment, but I am afraid you may be right.

I don''t know about you, but I''m sick of no-win pseudo-wars, like The War on Drugs and The War on Terrorism. I''m sick of undeclared wars like The War in Iraq and unnecessary and protracted police actions like the one in Korea. I''m sick of income taxes, which are unconstitutional because they are are a direct tax and are not equally apportioned as the Constitution requires. I''m sick of back door national ID cards like The Real ID Act. I''m sick of warrantless domestic spying by the Department of Homeland Insecurity and the loss of my civil liberties as a result of Draconian, fear-based Laws with oxymoronic names like The Patrot Act. I''m sick of secret offshore prisons like the one in Guantanamo, where our government tortures prisoners, who have no right to redress of grievance, or to writ of habeus corpus. I''m also sick of the Federal Reserve (a secret group of private banks) manipulation of our worthless, fiat currency. support the 2008 candidacy of Dr. Ron Paul for President of The United States. I believe he''s our only hope to restore peace, prosperity and freedom in this country. Presidential candidates with the integrity and bearing the positive message of Dr. Paul only come around only once in a lifetime, if we''re lucky. The cause of freedom is too important to let anything stand in the way of our participation in this 21st Century political revolution.

The biggest influence in your childs life is YOU and if you are drinking and smoking in front of them, then you are being irresponsible
************************
You are completely right. You should be setting a good example in all things. Kindess to others, manners, decency, not using substances as a crutch to get you through life, etc.
But, these things should not be illegal. The illegality of these things are destructive to our society, which your children have to navigate.

I did my share of smoking and drinking on weekends, NOT everyday. And I NEVER did it in front of my kids. And when my kids got to the age that when they woke up in the night and we were partying and they started questioning why we were acting different, it stopped. Please don''t tell me that when you smoke and drink you don''t act different, because YOU DO.

There comes a time when you have to grow up and be responsible. I didn''t want my kids to start drinking and smoking because MOMMY and DADDY did it. And when it comes to smoking marijuana, it IS a drug and it DOES cause problems. It damages your lungs and your memory. Why would I want that for my child? When your child grows up and moves out, they can decide for themselves what they are going to do, but if you do it in front of them, then you are influencing them, bigtime. I also quit smoking cigarettes. I did not want them breathing in my smoke. As a child they can not control their world, but as a parent you can.

The biggest influence in your childs life is YOU and if you are drinking and smoking in front of them, then you are being irresponsible.

If it''''s OK for liberals to take a "dig" at Bush,
then it''''s OK for conservatives to take a dig" at Clinton.
************************
Bush is president, Clinton isn''t. Clinton hasn''t been president for seven years. He is gone. He couldn''t run for a third term. He has not been in office since January, 2001.
George Bush is now president. He was elected in November of 2000, and took office in Jan of 2001.
Repeat. Clinton is not president. Bush is.
