Meanwhile in Louisiana

Quote
WASHINGTON -- Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, dominated the Louisiana Republican caucuses held Saturday. The results guarantee he will have a strong presence in the state's delegation to the Republican National Convention in August, even if he has little hope of winning the party's presidential nomination.

I predict hilarity in the coming months.

He may not win.....but he may get enough clout to swing Romney the right direction....esp. in picking a VP or Cabinet positions....

Impressed yet befogged, they grasped at his vivid leading phrases, seeing only their surface meaning, and missing the deeper current of his thought.

I'm not a part of the "Ron Paul for President" movement . . . but I really could see him doing some good as Secretary of the Treasury, Budget Director, or Chairman of the Federal Reserve.

Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.
