Ron Paul on the upcoming Iraq War Funding Bill

On Tuesday, March 20th Ron Paul spoke on the House Floor in opposition to the $124 billion dollar bill for funding the Iraq war.

"The $124 billion supplemental appropriation is a good bill to oppose." he said Tuesday. "I am pleased that many of my colleagues will join me in voting against this measure."

Dr. Paul went on to state that congress is "responsible for making policy, by debating and declaring war, raising and equipping armies, funding military operations, and ending conflicts that do not serve our national interests."

You can view the video of the speech here (windows media player required).

GOP presidential candidate would 'reinstate Constitution'

"I wanna be President because I have this dream, I'd like to reinstate the Constitution and restore the Republic," said Paul. "And I think the Republican party and all of Washington have lost their way."

Rep Ron Paul (R-TX) Announces '08 Presidential Candidacy

Rep Ron Paul will announce candidacy for Republican nomination on C-SPANS Washington Journal. This man understands the rules by which our country is meant to be governed, the U.S. Constitution. A strict constructionist, Paul will undoubtedly make some other candidates squirm, as he takes them to task on their unconstitutional records.

RAW Memorial February 2007
date to be announced


Wow, it happened. I can't say I'm surprised but damn if I don't feel this. I've learned so much from this man in his writings, which I'm still to this day working on reading every single one.

A hero has fallen, and I don't know how to feel. Perhaps its Bob's last words posted to his blog the day before he died that make it so difficult to be sad.

"Various medical authorities swarm in and out of here predicting I have between two days and two months to live. I think they are guessing. I remain cheerful and unimpressed. I look forward without dogmatic optimism but without dread. I love you all and I deeply implore you to keep the lasagna flying."

"Please pardon my levity, I don't see how to take death seriously. It seems absurd."

RAW


All I know is that I will do everything in my power to attend his memorial. It almost seems like my MO lately to attend these things.

If you've never picked up one of his books, and have no idea why I'm so torn up about this, go to amazon.com and buy a copy of "The Illuminatus! Trilogy"

Then, read it. If you like it, read anything hes ever written, and you'll like that too.

I can thank this man for moving the circuits in my brain every time I read one of his books, thus reshaping my world view and eventually, reaffirming it. When I first picked up illuminatus I was a young punk rocker socialist, and now I'm one of those "radical individualist libertarians" who reads books on Cabala, Philosophy, Psychology, Politics, Taoism, Physics, Religion, and Literature from the likes of Pound, Yeats, Joyce, and many others he's memed out in his books, blogs, and even film!

So, my plan, lets make history remember this man. Anyone in?
