   Ouch is right: Is that your broken logic or his?

   Indeed Ron Paul has dropped the ball on this one. I look around for the other “libertarian” candidate….. …oh well, back to Ron Paul.

   As a RP cultist, I have to agree with you about the wisdom (or lack thereof) in those particular medical votes. Dr. Paul has made similar mistakes on other subjects as well, including a few votes regarding marriage law and abortion. That being said, the fact remains: Congressman Ron Paul of Texas is, quite simply, the most reliably libertarian candidate for President to run as a Republican in my lifetime, and that includes Reagan. John “100 years of occupation and curtailing political speech” McCain doesn’t even come close.

   BTW, if consistent unqualified and uncritical love of a candidate makes one a cultist, what do you call consistent unqualified un-charitable hatred?

   “heavy-handed government intervention in the health care market”…??? A pathetic accusation at best. This is a reference to ONE VOTE that you have misrepresented.

   Ron wasn’t voting for socialized health care; he wasn’t voting to spend trillions of taxpayer dollars and go into massive debt to support the elite’s mercantilistic aims; he simply voted yes to the idea that the purchaser (which just so happens to be the government) should bargain with the seller for fair prices, just as any other health insurance company would be expected to do. It wasn’t Paul who decided that the government should foray into the health insurance industry, but since it already has, it should at least function efficiently as such.

   I am a doctor, MBA, and mother of two.

   Perhaps you should research cults and new religious movements before you make such comparisons.

   The other Presidential campaigns are more cult-like because they are based on personalities. That is the dangerous phenonmenon. Liking Huckabee because he speaks well is frightenly ignorant.

   If you say we are a cult who believes in the Constitution or limited government, than I guess we had good cult members like Thomas Jefferson et al.

   If you are questioning Ron Paul integrity, or questioning the rationality of Ron Paul supporters because we don’t question his integrity, well perhaps you should know Dr. Paul has been married to the same woman for 50 years, three of his children are doctors, his brothers are ministers, he moderately drinks wine, he’s never even seen someone smoke marijuana let alone had done any drugs, he served as a flight surgeon in the Air Force, he was one of the first delegates to support Ronald Reagan and he was favorably spoken of by Reagan, Milton Friemdan and a host of others.
