Well HB, the USA has a long history of politicians invoking the Bible, praying, talking about Jesus etc, what is new or different here?

Is Texas a theocracy?

So the bible thumping Texas, will someday in the future become a theocracy, it was much more secular and less religious in the past?

We all have to be afraid of something I guess.

as an ignorant outsider.

besides the loony margins of ron paul, which republicans are demanding a scaling back of the millitary and a reduction in the laws that protect the status quo of established corporations ?

and which dude has the strength of character and vision to get the federal power and then use it to disempower himself... this is once in a millenia kind of "greatness" to my perspective

The canary didn't die because this mine is dangerous, it died because it's lazy and wasn't raised with a proper work ethic.

I have a problem with privatized prisons also. But unfortunately most of them are private.

prisons are an ugly thing to run at a profit as it creates all sorts of twisted incentives.

im more of a rock breaking slavery on useless public monuments fan, which sound ghastly because of the word slavery but would be a preferable outcome for me than (a) being locked in a 2x2 dark box or (b) being an unpaid factory worker busted on flimsy charges to increase the cheap workforce.

actually, doesnt have to be rock breaking slavery building public infrastructure, any non for profit social improvement activity is fine... rubbish cleanup, building parks for kids....

Well thanks. You have to know which polls matter and what they mean.

The Tea Party is the most favorable political movement in America. Even though it is a plurality. Happy to occupy that spot. The Tea Party is also the most mobilized movement, despite the fact they don't even have dial up modems while Tinker will tell you Obama is an internet God, God of technology. All the technology has resulted in no dial up teabaggings. Impressive. We just use smoke signals. We mobilize and then feed Satan Sandwiches to people we don't like. Amazing organization. No headquarters, no leaders, no nothing, just everything happens. Almost like ESP.

Congress rates low. but that doesn't matter, the GOP lead the Democrats in the generic ballot. That is what matters.

A low favorable rating is bad for a President, makes it hard for him to get re-elected. And looking at Obama's internals and his electoral college, if I was a Democrat I would be rather queasy.

Yes, they need to work on their name recognition. Ron Paul has done so and benefited.

Frankly Ron Paul would have done much better if he had been more diplomatic in his Iraq War protestations. That was an error on his part. Held him back.
