Change your avatar to a dunce cap. I think it is well deserved.

Ahaha. Funny one.

I think you may have pinned me down with your description, as sad as it sounds to admit that.

 So now Huckleberry the nut-job is screaming that his supernatural beliefs are more correct than Mitts and he thinks this will gain him ground within his party? Anytime Satin comes into an argument you gotta ask:
 Does anyone really want this kind of cuckoo debate in the white house??
 I really hope he wins the nomination. Any near sane person could beat this crackpot.

As long as we keep electing more and more pathologically religious conservative Republicans, we're going to hear about Satan more and more.

Huckabee said: "And we ought to declare that we will be free of energy consumption in this country within a decade, bold as that is." http://sierraclub.typepad.com/cleanenergywatch/2007/12/cbs-evening-new.html

Let's give the guy a break and assume what he really meant to say was that the U.S. should be free of imported energy within a decade.

Anyone have any idea of how difficult this would be? What specific actions should be taken? What would it cost?

Meanwhile, his "economic policy" is a 30 (or 36) percent sales tax.

Has he said anything sensible?

And yet he's the one with all the momentum in the GOP pack. What does that tell us about the GOP candidates this time around?

He may be more consistent that others. I don't know. I don't know of any blatant flip-flops he's made.

I purused his campaign website. I've been ridiculed for doing that with other candidates because, you know, they are all liars anyway. But maybe Paul is unique. Perhaps he's the only honest one of the bunch. So maybe his website is okay.

I can't find many solutions there. What I find are a lot of problems. He's a problem identifier. But his solutions, IMHO, are either non-existent or nuts. To the extent he talks about the deficit, he wants to abolish the IRS and the Federal Reserve system. Oh yeah, and return to the gold standard. These are not solutions. How does abolishing the IRS end the deficit, exactly?

He complains that the FDA isn't doing its job to protect Americans from "dangerous drugs, genetically modified foods, dangerous pesticides and other chemicals in the food supply. His solution? Opposing legislation to increase the FDA's legal power. I don't get it.

He proposes radical surgery on a system that has produced a pretty good standard of living. That is what seems to get lost on most discussions of Paul. His advocates think everything stinks, the world stinks, America stinks, and Paul is going to put everything right with his radical ideas.

Okay, sometimes he's not radical. I read his section on the environment and it makes some sense, even if his support of governmental subsidies for alternative fuels runs counter to his anti-government, Libertarian, free enterprize rhetoric. I guess no one can be 100 percent consistent, eh?

I think our economy has been on a really good run since WWII. We have a deficit problem because we gave the tax cut fanatics too much power. It's really pretty simple, and radical "solutions" are not needed.

Agreed. Especially when alot of his ideas come from the founding fathers and the Constitution.
