Getting More Lunatic, Day By Day!!

Looks like Newt's campaign is tanking and Ron Paul will be the next in the lime light. Here is a piece from one of my Facebook friends........

If you really want to know how far "out there" Ron Paul, check out his vote. You dont have to take anyone's word for it, but you can see his voting record. Here it is:

In May 1999, Paul voted NO on strengthening the Social Security Lockbox. The man who preaches about government responsibility wants politicians to take money from the Social Security fund for other uses. In other words, he calls legal taxation ‘theft,’ but he approves of the very real theft of retirement money from hard working Americans.

In July 2009, Paul voted NO on allowing shareholders (company owners) to vote on executive compensation. Apparently, Paul has no problem assisting the greedy corporate bastards of Wall Street while ordinary Americans suffer. Paul voted the same way when a similar bill came up for a vote in 2007, just before those same executives crashed the economy with their greed.

In April 2009, Paul voted NO on enforcing anti-gay hate crimes. Paul hates the LGBT community and civil rights. And apparently he supports hate crimes.

In May 2009, Paul voted NO on $40B for green public schools. Not only does this show Paul’s unwillingness to help rebuild American infrastructure, it demonstrates his disdain for energy efficiency that would cost his Koch pals profits.

In June 2009, Paul voted NO on enforcing limits on CO2 global warming pollution. Paul must really love pollution.

In September 2008, Paul voted NO on tax credits for renewable electricity, demonstrating again that Paul is the lackey of big oil and big coal.

In May 2008, Paul voted NO on tax incentives for energy production and conservation. Considering America has an energy crisis, you would think Paul would be all for saving energy.

In February 2008, Paul voted NO on tax incentives for renewable energy. Helping his Koch buddies appears to be more important to Paul than an energy independent America which does not have to rely on Saudi Oil.

In May 2007, Paul voted NO on criminalizing oil cartels like OPEC. Texas politicians love Middle Eastern oil.

In January 2007, Paul voted NO on removing oil and gas exploration subsidies. This shows how biased Paul is when it comes to energy. He votes against tax incentives for renewable energy companies but refuses to take billions of taxpayer dollars away from big oil.
Paul approves of the government interfering and picking and choosing which private businesses should be allowed to make a profit.

In June 2008, Paul voted NO on $9.7B for Amtrak improvements and operation through 2013. See, unlike President Eisenhower, Paul really doesn’t care about building infrastructure in America.

In November 2007, Paul voted NO on $23B for waterway infrastructure. Who cares if America's infrastructure crumbles?

In June 2009, Paul voted NO on allowing up to four weeks of paid parental leave for federal employees. So much for family values. Paul doesn’t even want to allow employees to spend time with their newborn baby's.

In April 2003, Paul voted NO on establishing nationwide AMBER alert system for missing kids. Apparently, missing kids in the hands of pedophiles are of no concern to Ron Paul.

In May 2007, Paul voted NO on requiring lobbyist disclosure of bundled donations. Paul is pro-lobbyist. Did you ever wonder how much they pay him to vote their way?

In April 2007, Paul voted NO on granting Washington DC an Electoral vote or a vote in Congress. Ron Paul is against fair representation for people living in D.C.

In January 2009, Paul voted NO on expanding the Children’s Health Insurance Program. So Paul doesn’t care if your child goes missing, and he doesn’t care if your child is sick or hurt either.

In March 2008, Paul voted NO on requiring FISA warrants for wiretaps in the US, but not suspending warrants for wiretaps abroad. In other words, Paul has no problem suspending the Constitution in America but remains concerned about the rights of terrorists abroad.

In January 2007, Paul voted NO on increasing minimum wage to $7.25. So he is fine with corporate execs making billions off the backs of their employees, but he has a problem with the rest of us making a decent living.
