Journal Taco Cowboy's Journal: Comparing Barack Hussein Obama to Edward Snowden 5
Mr. Barack Hussein Obama is the President of the United States. He currently lives in the White House, and enjoys all the privileges of the presidency, including 24/7 security protection (including that of the protection from food poisoning).
Mr. Edward Snowden currently lives in an undisclosed location somewhere in Russia. He currently is under 24/7 threat from the United States of America for allegation of "treason".
One is currently the "President" and the other is currently labeled as a "fugitive".
For the past several months, revelations from the so-called "fugitive" has deeply troubled that "President", so much so that, few hours ago, that "President" had to come out to admit that the United States of America has spied on millions of people for no reason whatsoever.
It took MONTHS for that so-called "President" to admit his own wrongdoing, but even when that "President" has confessed to his own sin, Mr. Snowden, the "fugitive", is still under constant threat.
This is year 2014. The 14th years into the 21st century, and yet, our society still treats people with integrity, such as Mr. Edward Snowden, as a "fugitive". Meanwhile a man with no integrity whatsoever still gets to live inside the White House.
Is this the United States of America the founding fathers had envisioned ?
Or has the United States of America turned into the very DICTATORIAL MONSTER the founding fathers was fighting against ?

only the CNN sheeple haven't realized this already.
anyone who has followed ron paul possibly realized much of this years ago, long before anyone knew the name "edward snowden".
the democrats and republicans have both been two of the most corrupt and treasonous gangs in not only american, but world history. even corrupt "third-world" governments and dictatorships appear ethical compared to these two.
the tea party is possibly a small beacon of light in the united states political system, and despite the contin

i really feel sorry for you and your fellow libertarians, but unless you get out of the united states you will also bear the brunt of the cost along with all the sheeple.
perhaps how you frame your arguments might have been part of the reason why you were banned from the gop-related site. i'm not sure what you posted that got you banned, but even in your reply here you focus on religion and wealth in your criticism of romney, whi

Religion to me is a non-sequitur.
What I posted there is to point out that Romney offered NOTHING NEW to the podium, but on the other hand Ron Paul had a lot of new ideas to bring into the ring.
I got flamed left, right and center, and basically what they were saying is that "the central committee knows best" --- it's like the time machine got dialed back to the 1950's, with that sitcom "Father knows best".
With mentality like that, what's the difference of those who support the GOP from the sheeple who suppor

If religion is a non-sequitur, then why mention it? To many (especially in the United States) religion is a source of flame-bait, so while I think you are right that Romney offered nothing new, the manner in which you present that argument is important if you wish to convince others.
There's a good chance you would have been flamed the same regardless (both republican and democrat sheeple are pretty stupid) but I'm just sayin' to give yourself the best chance.
