In his interview of the honorable Pat Buchanan, Glenn Beck asserts that Ron Paul is the “closest to the founding fathers.” So, are Ron Paul supporters, who Beck equates with terrorists also supporters of the Founding Fathers? If so, are the Founding Fathers terrorists?

Tonight’s debate was a despicable display of socialism and warmongering. Mike Huckabee wants to use our tax money to subsidize every project under the sun and Mars. Even Romney was shocked. He looked at Huckabee and said: “That is not your money to spend.” When asked about how long he would pledge to stay in Iraq, Thompson advocated staying in Iraq “as long as it takes to complete our mission.” This mission, of course, has been re-defined many times.

Ron Paul’s surge in the polls has given him a little more spotlight in debates. Paul spoke 4 times. McCain and Thompson also spoke 4 times; Romney and Giuliani spoke 9 times. In fact, the debate began with a discussion between Romney and Giuliani over illegal immigration. Each candidate accused one another of providing sanctuary cities. The discussion became so fruitless that even the audience began to despise the interaction.

On the other hand, Paul’s performance was clear and concise. It is always surprising to hear his cogent responses in the short time alloted to him. His knowledge of history and unwavering commitment to freedom and the Constitution places him on far higher level than all the other candidates (Tancredo is an exception to this criticism; though largely interventionist in his philosophy). In order to prove Ron Paul’s surge in the polls, McCain lashed out at him concerning Paul’s ardent opposition to the war. McCain accused Paul of being an isolationist. Paul corrected the ridiculous assertion from McCain and re-asserted the Founding Father’s commitment to trading with nations, but not seeking monsters over sea.

Paul’s most eloquent moment was when he corrected a candidate’s statement that Republicans go to Washington to change things, but end up being changed by Washington. Paul retorted that Washington never changed him: “I don’t think that applies to me… I never voted to raise taxes,” said Paul.

Once again, a large number of people have seen the unapologetic stance of a true patriot. The words of our future first lady describes this patriot:

So the American Dream came true for a boy who delivered newspapers, a teen-ager who mowed lawns, delivered milk, delivered furniture, delivered laundry, and delivered mail, and for a man who then delivered babies. Now that dream continues with a man who is trying to deliver the message that freedom works and that patriotism must not grow weak in the hearts of all Americans. And liberty reigns to help us hang on to our Republic for which the Founders gave their last measure of devotion.

Ron Paul’s Winning Ad

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows Mike Huckabee back in single digits and Ron Paul gaining another percentage point of support in the very unsettled race for the Republican Presidential Nomination.

Bravo, Bravissimo…

Shepherd Smith from Fox News interviewed Ron Paul on this clip. Among many things, he asked Paul what would his message be to President Musharaff concerning terrorists’ possibly obtaining Pakistan’s nuclear weapons. Paul never replies without first giving us a history of American intervention in Middle Eastern politics. The US has aided Pakistan with over 10 billion dollars. Paul’s answer was classic: “No more money pal we’ve given you 10 billion and your flunking the course.” “Musharaff is a puppet of ours,” says Paul. This is why the people are trying to overtake that government. They do not want to know that one of their own is supporting the pro-Israel agenda of the United States. This is the theory of blowback. When you try to impose democracy and overthrow dictators, you receive the fury of the Middle East. Paul once again re-asserts the conspicuous fact uttered by the Founders: Stay away from foreign entanglements.

I have seen V for Vendetta a few times. Any message that opposes the status governmental quo is worth listening. One of the central emphases of the Guy Fawkes’ day is an opposition to any form of totalitarianism, though the means pursued to accomplish this purpose is immoral and ultimately contrary to the message of liberty. As Catholics for Ron Paul reminded me:

Yes Ron Paul is a hero that is going against the state to seek freedom and repair a structural injustice within our system. But the film V for Vendetta is an openly anti-Catholic film that bizarrely glorifies a Catholic anti-establishment figure from history who sought to liberate Catholics from an anti-Catholic tyrannical regime, and puts him in a film which is overtly anti-Catholic and anti-Christian. How does this fit with Ron Paul and his message?

This is not the message I want to convey to anyone and, as CFRP concludes, this message is inconsistent with Ron Paul’s message of religious freedom. Further, Ron Paul would never embrace a message that opposes the Christian faith. Though the symbolism behind the date is probably not the most desirable for a Ron Paul donation explosion, nevertheless it will suit our purposes in this great day in campaigning history.

As of 7:44AM, we have raised over $614,000. The day has just begun.

Update: 9:20AM – $906,000

Update: 11:30AM – $1.2 Million
