It's a frightening world.

And one of the reasons I am growing to hate libertarians: they live in denial. Read the comments following. And for the record, I saw three kids last week, purchase "M" rated video games at a local Best Buy - with no ID check whatsoever...

But that's why libertarians are not conservatives. Conservatives acknowledge God's morality, libertarians shoot Him the middle finger...

Hate libertarians?

Well, I wouldn't know because I don't think we've actually seen a real libertarian lately...



Oh... wait, you mean ronpaul! Ha!

The more we hear from ronpaul and his paulists, it's clear they're ANARCHISTS, trying to pass as libertarians.

Children watching 'humping' action...
There's always been paintings of people doing it! Back when I was a teenager I saw a painting of a whole mess of Chinese 'humping' each other. That was way before the video games came out. I don't think these teenagers who buy the M rated games will become 'pure minded' cause government denies them access to such stuff. Kevin, Why does it bother you what other people's teenagers watch? Better they be sitting home watching it than off somewhere doing it... Wouldn't you think?

Parents should protect children ...
(of if their are no parents, grandparents or legal guardians).

One of the things wrong with this country is too many people think it's government's job to protect every one and everything.

The "children" and "senior citizens" are always applause winners and great to make someone feel holier than thou.

Who ever invented the term Nanny State was incredibly astute. But people love Nanny or Mother and love being taken care of, instead of taking repsonsibility for thier own lives, or the lives of their children.

"Ron Paul will not protect our children."

Good grief, are you serious. Ron Paul, I assume, protected his own children as well as he could.

It's not his job to protect the children.

This is called a difference in governmental philosophy.

Take care of your own children and leave mine alone.

Wow, that's amazing! :) You predicted that Ron Paul's rude and deceitful followers would flock here and be anything but First Amendment lovers! It's been well-documented all over the web!

Knight
You are about the last person on Earth who has any credence in telling anyone what makes one a real Republican.

Knight, when it comes to violent video games, the parents can still buy them for the kids, but as McCullough noted here, the kids bought the games themselves.

There's a difference between parents raising their children as they see fit, and undermining how parents bring up their kids. Businesses should not be engaged in the latter and aiding kids in the defiance of the will of their parents.

for lunatics running this asylum....
Let's see, we believe in smaller and unintrusive government, which was the Framers' ideal. And Ron Paul archtypically holds that view. So because he believes in the liberty that is defined by non-governmental involvement in people's lives, he therefore supports letting kids see pornography and violently graphic stuff? Uh..., No. He believes parents, not governmental stooges, should oversee the welfare of kids. There is no evidence that Ron Paul is other than thoughtful about the proper rearing and stewardship and protection of children.

Why I'm voting for Ron Paul
In the past couple of months I have become a Ron Paul supporter. I am a strong Christian and feel that Ron Paul is the better candidate than Mike Huckabee, even if he's not as outspoken about his faith. There are too many Republicans right now that are trying only to elect the candidate who has the same faith as they do and who preaches the most. Being a Christian has nothing to do with trying to tell other people what to believe or that they are wrong, or evil, or people who bash people who are gay, or something that is wrong. The truth is that everybody sins and nobody is perfect. Ron Paul believes that everybody should have the freedom of religion and just because he doesn't campaign on it and put other people down doesn't mean that he isn't pro-life and doesn't have srong morals. Ron Paul understands that people, not goverment should have more responsibility in everyday life. If everybody who said they would vote for Ron Paul if they thought it wouldn't be a wasted vote, would vote for him, I'm sure he would be in the top 2 or 3 right now. Vote Ron Paul, he's for freedom, peace, and life.

RONALD REAGAN QUOTE 1975
"If you analyze it I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism. I think conservatism is really a misnomer just as liberalism is a misnomer for the liberals–if we were back in the days of the Revolution, so-called conservatives today would be the Liberals and the liberals would be the Tories. The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is."

MISSING REAGAN LIBERTARIANISM???
The Reagan coalition comprised three strands of intellectual thought -- libertarianism, traditionalism and anti-communism.

Since Reagan's time, the social conservative wing has become ascendant, and the libertarian wing has diminished -- especially the libertarian wing focused upon the domestic scene.

For that reason, the growth of intrusive federal government and the danger it poses to freedom is not getting the attention it deserves. RON PAUL is the only candidate who understands this.


a Concerned American writes: Monday, January, 14, 2008 12:12 AM
Speaking of Misnomers . . .
What seems to pass for "libertarian" these days, especially as coming from Mr. Paul and his ilk, sounds more and more like "libertine." Which in turn sounds a lot like anarchism.

Origin of Libertine
Origin of the word "Libertine" for (a concerned idiot)


Libertine was originally a negative term, derived by John Calvin, for opponents of his policies in Geneva, Switzerland. This group, led by Ami Perrin, argued against Calvin's "insistence that church discipline should be enforced uniformly against all members of Genevan society".

I am sure that if John Calvin were living today Kevin McCullough and his concerned idiots would be some of his Puritanical followers and would probably have Ron Paul supporters burned at the stake for heresy. LOL

Darn libertarians!
The republican party needs a candidate that can inspire a grassroots movement. They need someone that can inspire the youth. As it stands now the democrats are overwhelmingly more popular among them. If the republicans can't do something about this, they're going to get wrecked in the next couple election cycles.

Oh, on a side note.....

I've begun selling bricks that we can throw at Ron Paul suuporters. The bricks have a message painted on them saying "Get out of our party, we don't want your vote!"

faux-conservatives of today...
sound like hard-core liberals more and more. This idiot McCullough wants more regs to "protect the children?"

Here's an idea: take a little responsibility and do it yourself, Kevin. Fed up with evil profit-motivated corporations selling filth to kids? Fine. Protest them. Picket them. Boycott them.

But I guess that's just too much to ask today's "conservative" who ironically sounds precisely like a Clinton liberal. Just turn every responsibility over to government - that's the ticket.

Just don't complain to me, Kev, when Hillary wins the White House and starts mandating racy sex ed in government-run schools a la Jocelyn Elders.

It really wasn't that long ago when conservatives were big on personal responsibility. Since they've gained power, they've changed their tune, and tried to empower government like it's going out of style, pushing their morals on everyone else.

Sad - the Republicans really have lost their way. And consequently, they've lost Congress, and will likely lose even more seats *and* the White House.

Facts
"And for the record, I saw three kids last week, purchase "M" rated video games at a local Best Buy - with no ID check whatsoever..."

Or was it one kid at a Circuit City buying an AO rated game? Or was it a teenager at the local gun shop buying a shotgun? Or was it me at the drugstore buying a pack of gum?

Just asking... y'know, given the care you've shown in reporting facts, it seems possible that any of these are what you actually witnessed.

(Also for the record, I wouldn't be surprised if this particular claim is completely accurate, but we'll never know... too bad you've completely undermined your credibility.)

Not about Paul, it's about your lies
Your article is so full of lies I can hardly believe it. On top of that, this has nothing to do with Ron Paul, you lying weasel. Most of us couldn't care less if Truther Paul fell off the face of the Earth.

It's about your made-up, lying, inaccurate, bogus article about Mass Effect. You lied. repeatedly and intentionally.

Michael Moore is more honest than you are. That should make you cringe.
Cooltruth writes: Monday, January, 14, 2008 2:50 PM
Kevin McCulloch hates kids...
He lets a Best Buy get away with selling M-rated video 'porn' to them without any mention of him saying something to management about it. Can it be that big of a problem to him if he watches it happen without saying anything about it? Is this just another of his sleazy attempts to smear Ron Paul? Kevin, Smearing my favorite candidate will NOT cause your favorite candidate to win! Just in case you haven't already figured that out...
al writes: Monday, January, 14, 2008 4:04 PM
I think I get it...
Kevie is trying to drive traffic to his inane blog by smearing Ron Paul. Unfortunately he raises nary a point that makes any sense whatsoever. Furthermore, he's a liberal in drag advocating pawning off resposibility of legislating decency onto government.

Ok, Kevie - you got a little traffic and name recognition. Now if you could just write a little more intelligently to gain a modicum of credibility...

Wait a sec
What part of acknowledging God's morality includes unapologetic lying? Does your Bible contain an extra book that says lying "for God" is OK? Did I miss the asterisk on Thou shalt not lie? No, well, maybe you're just a hypocrite and a liar.

Morality and God does not fit together
God, allow me to laugh at the so called morality that thing has ever done to the world... War in the name of the god and suffering in the name of the God. Lets leave that thing back some thousands of years where it belong and wake up to the modern developing society.

I think you are correct. Furthermore, we should be happy to oblige Kevin. I think we should give him so many hits that whenever someone types in "Ron Paul" in a search engine that KMC's lies and smears are the first things that show up.
=========

On a sidenote,

KMC,

Good to see you again. ;-) I haven't forgotten about you, just have been busy with other things. Trust me, I will do everything I can to get your moribund blog the hits it deserves in more ways than one.
