    This picture is so sad on so many different levels… Poor Ron, it looks like someone stole his lollipop.

  2. Deep Thought says:

    Or the proposed health care bill.

  3. sopranomom says:

    What???? A conservative view lol?????? Isn’t this one of the signs of the appo…. apycol….. apoko…. uh… the end of the world?

  4. Sarah says:

    No, its not a conservative! Its a….*GASP!* MODERATE!!! God forbid anyone should not just vote for things because its the party line but because its the best thing for the people!

  5. Alverant says:

    Then why is Paul there? I don’t think he’s read the Constitution either. Especially the parts about non-establishment of religion and a well regulated militia.

  6. Deep Thought says:

    Ron Paul throws a party, and you bring…

  7. clamboy says:

    “The Congress shall have Power to declare Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attained.” (last paragraph of Article 3, Section 3)

    Think about how many members of Congress can quickly and clearly explain what that means. Then shudder.

    • Hell, I had to look “Corruption of Blood” up, it sounds like some kind of vampire thing:

      Corruption of Blood
      Corruption of Blood was part of ancient English penalty for treason. It was usually part of a Bill of Attainder, which normally sentenced the accused to death. The corruption of blood would forbid the accused’s family from inhereting his property. Such bills and punishments were often inflicted upon Tories by colonial governments immediately following independence.

      • viking gal says:

        That sounds like it follows those old laws where if someone was convicted of treason, they killed his whole extended family.
        *thinks of creepy uncle and shudders*

        • bluedog says:

          Actually, it says “…NO attainder of treason may work…” Meaning that the Constitution itself outlaws “Corruption of Blood”, but allows forfeiture during the life of the attainder (the person who committed the treason) – so someone found guilty of treason would lose all his/her property (and most likely his/her life as well) but his/her family members and descendants wouldn’t have to worry about having the crime of treason of their relative passed onto them.

          So really, this part of the Constitution is protecting the family of the attainder by not allowing what was, at the time, a common practice by British Kings.

      • clamboy says:

        I figured that that was what it meant (after thinking for a while), but I didn’t that it was standard practice after independence. Good for those Constitution writers to recognize the wrongness of the practice! Ain’t the Enlightenment wunnerful?

  8. Sodapop says:

    I love Ron Paul, but I have not laughed this hard since I saw him in the new Bruno movie.

    • KelliKat says:

      I came to see if this reference had been made. I nearly hate to admit it, but that movie made me LOL. Also, cringe.

  9. tobo says:

    Kucinich would be there… He carries around a copy in his pocket!

  10. gina says:

    I voted for ron paul and would happily do it again
    your awesome!

  11. Nineteen Kilo says:

    Looks like all his Rand-freak supporters who read the Constitution are there, too.

  12. tim says:

    paultards are so hilarious. not in the way they think they’re funny, however.

  13. Blurgle says:

    Better caption: Ron Paul holds a party for all the members of Congress as absolutely bugnuts insane as he is.

  14. Ceefax says:

    Gosh, I can’t wait until Ron Paul rides in on his magical unicorn and fixes all of the worlds problems with ideas that could have been written on a postage stamp.

  15. Chrisfs says:

    Sad to not be allowed in at your own party

  16. Olegs says:

    Thank you, interesting!

    Visit and observe our company high quality exclusive furniture.

  17. forge says:

    If this is meant to say the “living Constitution” is a MYTH, or thereabouts, well, go f*ck yourself. Otherwise, cool! Great lol. I love Paul, he’s the only one who says anything close to the way things really are.

  18. NegroSaki says:

    Damn, looks like Ronny’s all alone.

  19. Me says:

    I hate that he’s alone.

  20. WinstonSmith2600 says:

    All we need to do is start enforcing treason laws for civil servants and then we wont have as many problems with cops or people in office. BTW, the punishment for treason is life in prison or execution.

    Life in prison or execution for anyone that votes for a unconstitutional bill, passes an unconstitutional EO, or arrests/convicts someone based on an unconstitutional law.

    • wicket the great says:

      Thats the ticket, we just have to imprison those that we disagree with…how American of you. Did they call you ’special’ when you were younger, or did they just let you believe you were ‘regular’?

      Misinterpretting the Constitution….you’re doing it RIGHT!

  21. Ivan says:

    Ron Paul is incredibly ugly and totally insane. His are the politics of the anarchists who are at the fringe of both political extremes. Yes Ron we don’t want to go back to the gold standard. The man is pure fascist.

  22. dzent1 says:

    We could certainly use more like Ron Paul. He’s a good man.
