So, How's That Workin' For Ya?

This Memorial Day means a lot to me, especially on the eve of the primary elections. Much has been sacrificed for that which too many of us take for granted today. Our founding fathers made it happen. There was some in-house squabbling in 1861 to 1865, (the South has always vowed to "rise again"......and they probably SHOULD, along with the rest of us).

We most likely didn't need to get involved in World War I. Our fathers and uncles came from behind to win World War II in just 3 and a half years. America never stood taller. Every conflict since then has been a U.N. Resolution.

We don't work for the U.N., and I wish McCain and Obama understood that.

I don't ever want to see us all under ONE world flag. Washington, Adams and Jefferson didn't want it, Lincoln through Reagan didn't want it, and neither Does Ron Paul.

This particular Memorial Day is very somber for me. I was wounded and "orange-sprayed" myself, back in '68, and I don't want our country GIVEN AWAY.

Because I'd finally reached the "Popeye attitude,".....("That's all I can stands, I can't stands no more!")..........I jumped aboard the Ron Paul movement, and for the first time in my life, I've really gotten politically active. Mainly because I have a great wife, wonderful kids and grandkids, who will have enough to take on as it is, without them having to learn Spanish and Chinese, and that's what's coming if the thieves and backstabbers in Washington D.C. are allowed to continue.

Primary is Tuesday. This past week, I've finished getting road signs put out, pamphlets delivered, and I've talked to people. Seeing the magnetic signs on my car, some people approached ME, asking information about Congressman Paul, and naturally, I was glad to give out info and DVD's, but got angry on occasion, also. If the mainstream media wasn't so left wing biased, NO ONE would have to ask me, "Who's Ron Paul?" That alone, is shameful.

Of those I've talked to one-on-one, most have been very receptive, genuinely wanting to make an informed choice on Tuesday. Others couldn't care less, and will go with the names they see on TV all the time. And hey.........that's good.........freedom of choice......(as of 2008 anyway).

When I've talked to those who didn't even want to HEAR about Ron, I have to assume they're content with our current government. The taxes, the illegals, the war, the economy...I guess everything's ok. McCain's an extension of Bush, Obama tells us what he wants to do, but can't tell us anything he's accomplished thus far as a Senator, so we just have to take his word, his charm and personality.

Unlike "Moe. Larry and Curly," Ron's voting record in the Congress BACKS UP everyting he says.

Folks, the old "Bazookaman" here, doesn't know where YOU stand, but the following list is VALIDATED by Ron Paul's Congressional voting record: He has NEVER:

voted to raise taxes

voted for an unbalanced budget

voted to raise Congressional pay

taken a government-paid junket

He voted AGAINST the Iraq War, (but voted FOR getting Bin Laden)

He voted AGAINST keeping us in the 1-world-order United nations

He will ELIMINATE the IRS as well as the Death Tax

He voted AGAINST amnesty for illegals

He voted AGAINST welfare for illegals

He voted AGAINST birthright citizenship

He voted AGAINST the Patriot Act

He voted AGAINST the "National I.D. Card"

He voted AGAINST the Assault Weapons Ban

He voted AGAINST tax dollars to the anti-gun U.N.

He voted AGAINST taxes on tips

He does NOT support "Socialized Medicine"

He voted AGAINST NAFTA and is deadset AGAINST the NAU

Congressman Paul SUPPORTS the following:

Our Constitution in its entirety

Making all medical expenses tax deductible

Allowing patients to buy cheaper prescription drugs from other countries

Health freedom and alternative medicines

He supports the 1st Amendment. McCain/Feingold does NOT

He supports the 2nd Amendment. The Democrats do not (McCain is shaky here as well).

He voted to allow pilots to carry guns in cockpits

He wants ALL of our overseas bases closed, with our military folks guarding OUR shores, not everyone else's

Our tax dollars are for AMERICA, as per the Constitution, our job isn't to help everyone ELSE's economy---as per Ron Paul (and our 9th Amendment).

Ron says "We aren't the world's policeman, and we need to stay out of things that don't concern us." (Didn't George Washington himself mention something about "staying out of foreign affairs"?)

Ron Paul says "America FIRST", before it's gone

The way things are going in this country, we may never have this opportunity again. Let's do something RIGHT for a change......and we NEED change. Vote for RON PAUL........for yourself, for our kids......for our grandkids...........for our country. As in....OUR country.

Unless of course you're satisfied with business as usual. If you're ok with having your wallet fleeced, if you don't mind the illegals, and China's economy takeover, if it's alright with you that our government keeps giving billions to foreign countries while we're paying four bucks a gallon and heading into a recession, if you don't mind being spied on and controlled, then by all means..........go vote for McCain or Obama. Next time you visit a Veteran's Cemetary, though; just remember to tell them "Thanks, but no thanks."

TWO FINAL QUESTIONS..............How do YOU feel about the above list of issues............but most importantly..........where does "YOUR CANDIDATE" stand?

"GIVE IT A REST, will ya Bazookaman?" I'm voting for the mainstream boys..........I'm supporting the names I KNOW about, and I've ALWAYS gone along with the majority! Do you understand?"

Yep. Sure do. And as Dr. Phil says......"How's that been workin' for ya?"
