Would You Vote for Rand Paul Now? He's for legal MJ, and running for president

[UncleBuck]

Keep spewing the propaganda. the real unemployment rate is around 23%,

no it's not.

from the BLS just a month or so ago 700k people dropped out of the work force

no, it was less than 100k.

, we only have a labor participation rate, again according to your own government is only at 60%,there are at least 100 million americans that are not working that could be working,

yeah, i'm sure 10 year old children and 80 year old grandmas can be working so easily.

that number is declining because we had a baby boom starting exactly 70 years ago, and people retire at 65.

you are beyond retarded and full of shit.

 

[UncleBuck]

Sky,

Posting the same picture over and over of Rand Paul getting up from a dinner table sheds no light on the merits (or lack thereof) of his pursuit of the presidency. Or of his support for MJ.

no need to keep lying, murdoch.

"the thing i've said is not to legalize" - rend pawl

Yeah, and he recently signed on to support progress toward MJ legalization. He's evolving a bit. Would he make a good prez? I don't know. Time and media will grill him like he's never been grilled before over the next few months. So let's see what falls out of the trees before we judge him completely unfit. I would say the same thing about Elizabeth Warren, if she was running. And I wish she was.

I cant help but wonder how long before the feds start cracking down on those breaking the above rules.
For instance NGR is blatantly selling seeds all over the US. Considering one of the major issues people had about legalizing was MJ spilling over into non-legal states I suspect it is just a matter of time and a lot of these dispensaries will be getting raided.

Along with their customers

Stop using only PART of that quote, its irresponsible and very 'foxnews' like. Here is what Paul actually said regarding legalization:

"Q: You would like to relax some of the laws for people who possess and are smoking marijuana, and synthetic recreational drugs. Why?

PAUL: The main thing I've said is not to legalize them but not to incarcerate people for extended periods of time. With Senator Leahy, we have a bill on mandatory minimums. There are people in jail for 50 years for nonviolent crimes. And that's a huge mistake. Our prisons are full of nonviolent criminals. I don't want to encourage people to do it. Marijuana takes away your incentive to work. I don't want to promote that but I also don't want to put people in jail who make the mistake. There are a lot of young people who do this and then later on, they get married and they quit; I don't want to put them in jail and ruin their lives. The last two presidents could conceivably have been put in jail for their drug use, and it would have ruined their lives. They got lucky, but a lot of poor kids, particularly in the inner city, don't get lucky."

Favors legalizing medical marijuana
How conservative is he? The 47-year-old Paul wants to abolish the federal departments of education, commerce and energy, as well as the income tax.
Like Palin, with whom Paul now stands atop the Tea Party cake, he is opposed to all government bailouts and earmarks, and President Obama's "socialist" health care law. He favors a constitutional amendment banning abortion, even in cases of rape and incest.

But in a libertarian twist, he also favors legalizing medical marijuana.

everything he goes on to talk about has already been done by obama and holder though.

the main takeaway is that rend pawl does not want to legalize. the secondary thing is that he's plagiarizing obama and holder, just like he plagiarizes wikipedia.

a "libertarian" that wants to make all abortion illegal, even when the woman was raped?

yeah, sounds like a shit ton of liberty to me.

 

[max420thc]

no it's not.



no, it was less than 100k.

you are beyond retarded and full of shit.

So you must get a talking points sheet from the democrat national headquarters every morning, you idiots all sound like parrots reading from the same sheet of paper,
the month before last the economy had 700 thousand people drop out of the work force, of that 700 THOUSAND only 30 thousand of them were baby boomers retiring,
Everyone else is retiring on the obamao program, Go sell your bull shit someplace else,,it doesn't work with informed people

still no citation of anything. just a link to "shadowstats".

yeah, if you're using it, i'm sure it's reliable.

probably way more reliable than calling tens of thousands of randomly chosen households and asking them point blank.

retard. try citing your bullshit so i can laugh at your source.

since when has obamao hitler and holder goebles wanted to do away with the IRS, since when has either one of them openly advocated legalization of marijuana? since when has one of them wanted to shut down entire departments of government to include the IRS>?
HELL no obamao hitler wants to use the IRS to investigate their political opponents, Nixon was a saint compared to these two criminals,
Name me one person other than Rand Paul who wants to at least audit the federal reserve?
Difference is night and day between obamao or eric the withholder of evidence, those to clowns are criminals.
they should be doing life in prison for fast and furious,everyone around them should be in prison,
Obamao is unfit for command is what we would have called him in the military,he would have been court martialed and put in prison,

goddamn you are stupid. did you even bother to read the rest of the quote about getting rid of mandatory minimums and lessening sentencing for non-violent offenders?

that is what i was referencing, which should have been obvious as i quoted it in my post you fucking retard.

in any case, i will put you down as another racist bigoted retard in favor of rend pawl. i'm sure you won't be the only racist bigot flocking to him.

Its all bad info to you unless it comes from the DNC or huff po

 

[UncleBuck]

no, i'll accept the BLS as a good source of info.

racist morons like you have tried to tell me that the BLS only pumps out lies, but i can go to the store and check on the price of eggs or chicken or bread and compare it to BLS averages and see that their data is spot on.

ditto with their unemployment figures. they literally just call a scientifically selected sample of tens of thousands of households every month and ask them what their work situation is. it is completely verifiable and repeatable.

so if you could just cite your numbers from a reliable source of information, rather than some right wing conspiracy group selling gold on their website and preying on the fears of retards like you, that would be great.

everyone who does not think like you is a racist, far as I can tell you are the biggest racist on rollitup,that's all you do is run around calling people racist,
if you sling enough of that kind of mud it gets to where it doesn't stick,
your probably just like every other commiecrat I know of that thinks if you throw enough shit at a wall eventually something sticks,
you done wore out your race card,

with the amount of hatred i've seen you direct at homosexuals, calling them "fags" and "queers" and worse, to call you merely bigoted is an understatement.

i also noticed you called reverend wright a racist for condemning the racist past of america. why would you do that?

the only people i've seen do anything like that were quite racist, like kynes or desert dude or red1966.

prove me wrong.

 

[UncleBuck]

yet you are completely unable to cite that.

don't try shadowstats either, they have been debunked over and over.

show me the BLS stating that 700,000 people dropped out of the workforce, and that only 30,000 of them were hitting retirement age (kinda hard to believe, since 30,000 baby boomers hit retirement age every single day).

If you looked at the data before you call it BS you would know its not from a right wing organization, you would have also seen the governments reported lies,
I also didn't know the BLS did inflation reports,,you moron
