Leaving this here for Maizuru.

1. 😆 😆 😆 I sure hope Ush doesn't close this thread because it is clearly a troll thread...but I like it.

2. Just because he does not support the "police-iness" of the UN over US affairs, does not mean he won't make use of such resources. The system is there, he can still take advantage of it whether or not he likes it. It does make him seem like a hypocrite, though.

I only just heard about it.

how come really liberal people love to bash things they don't know about. what's your experience with the u.n. Symmetric? Military? I hate this far wing thing. So little knowledge. So much bashing.

Paul-ites, Assemble!

No, I think Raisen is just a troll without any real ideology.

could be true, my post was all inference

Well, what leads me to believe that he isn't a Paulite is that he doesn't use "Ron Paul" anywhere in his post, which Paulites never fail to do.

I just saw the reactionary knee-jerk rambling with no real point and thought -- Paulite

Well I suppose there's something to that.

I think the vast majority of Ron Paul supporters are like what I was when I was briefly a Ron Paul acolyte: people who really don't grasp the implications of Ron Paul's philosophy and just embrace him because he's different from most politicians and thus must be superior.

Agreed, Paul actually still likely is the closest of any mainstream politician to where I would fall politically, but like you said, a lot of the excitement I had for him at first was about him just representing something different; like, Libertarianism doesn't exist much in Canada either.

But, ya, I think once you start looking at just how dramatic some of Paul's policies actually would be, it is hard to be that into him.

that story is pretty messed up as well... that Paul would go to any governing body rather than engage in the free-market to obtain RonPaul.com is comical, really

I found an update. The official UN response boils down to "You're a dick."

From a legal standpoint I feel like Ron Paul ought to have had a real case. Ron Paul is both his name and the way he advertises his work and political activism. Apparently he also has "Ron Paul" formally registered in some way, which the UN admits several times in the report.

Ron Paul supporters in a nutshell:

He better not go up on Rick Schawartz’s wall of shame.

Personally,…this makes a RDNH nit that bad a thing to me.

Ron Paul is a hero and true statesman par excellence.

If Ron Paul is a REVERSE DOMAIN NAME HIJACKER…

than it must be a good thing to be one.

Sorry…but the rule of law is DEAD.

This case proves it!

I can just imagine if Ron Paul got convicted for embezzlement:
"If Ron Paul is an embezzler

than it must be a good thing to be one."

Very honest and probably very accurate.

I see nothing wrong with that 😎

Except it's more like saying: "Butter is neither wise nor neutral, butter is full of corruption and rampant anti-pancakeism."

And then going "But hey, butter can help me swallow my pancakes, so it's okay."
