The Friends of Ron Paul Congressional Massacre

You may recall some of these Congressional House members: Walter Jones of North Carolina, Justin Amash of Michigan, David Schweikert of Arizona and  Tim Huelskamp of Kansas.

Some are House members that were endorsed by Ron Paul in the recent election, others were in general agreement with him. They all have one thing in common, now, the GOP Steering Committee has via the Congressional equivalent of a Richard Nixon Saturday Night Massacre removed them from key Congressional committees.

Roll Call has the details:

Speaker John A. Boehner initiated today a small purge of rebellious Republicans — mostly conservatives — from prominent committees; it’s the latest instance of the Ohio Republican’s clamping down on his fractious conference. 
The decisions were made by the GOP Steering Committee at a Monday meeting, which reviewed a spreadsheet listing each GOP lawmaker and how often he or she had voted with leadership, three sources said.
Reps. David Schweikert of Arizona and Walter Jones of North Carolina were booted from the Financial Services Committee. Reps. Justin Amash of Michigan and Tim Huelskamp of Kansas were removed from the Budget Committee.
According to a source, Schweikert was told that he was ousted in part because his “votes were not in lockstep with leadership.”
Michael Steel, a spokesman for Boehner, said, “The Steering Committee makes decisions based on a range of factors.”…
The shuffling is the latest sign that Boehner is flexing his muscle with the right flank of his conference as he seeks a united front during tense fiscal cliff negotiations with President Barack Obama.
A GOP strategist said, “This is a move that the whip team has been advocating for some time. They are using all of the tools at their disposal.”

“I don’t like ass kissers, flag wavers or team players. I like people who buck the system. Individualists. I often warn people: “Somewhere along the way, someone is going to tell you, ‘There is no “I” in team.’ What you should tell them is, ‘Maybe not. But there is an “I” in independence, individuality and integrity.’” Avoid teams at all cost. Keep your circle small. Never join a group that has a name. If they say, “We’re the So-and-Sos,” take a walk. And if, somehow, you must join, if it’s unavoidable, such as a union or a trade association, go ahead and join. But don’t participate; it will be your death. And if they tell you you’re not a team player, congratulate them on being observant.” - George Carlin

“There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result from marijuana usage. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers and any others.”

“Reefer makes darkies think they’re as good as white men.”

“…the primary reason to outlaw marijuana is its effect on the degenerate races.”

“Marijuana is the most violence-causing drug in the history of mankind.”

By Henry Anslinger, first Commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics and chief proponent of marijuana prohibition. (via lost-and-searching-in-america)

So I heard some rumors about Ron Paul tonight. My opinion of him has dropped off ever since hearing that he accepts Social Security money, and if this latest development is true, then he’s a sell-out and nothing more in my opinion. I want to look further in to it and make a post here once I’ve fully read up on it, but I think I’m all Internetted out for tonight, so I’ll do it tomorrow.

What is this latest development?

And what’s wrong with him accepting SocSec? He paid for it, he deserves to get it.

 imaurel replied to your post: So I heard some rumors about Ron Paul tonight. My…

Social security is merely money taken form you and put into a “savings” (so they say if they didnt keep stealing it) Accepting money back that’s yours isnt an issue. Look how he said no to congressional pension.
Ahh, I see. I keep confusing Social Security and the way it works with SSI and junk like that, which I see abused a lot, especially now that I’ve been working in inner-city Dayton all summer.
But still, you would think Ron Paul would rather go for a private retirement fund, though I do understand his position on it upon further though; the people who paid into it deserve to get it, even if we are opposed to the program and seek to remove it or whatever.
But still. The guy’s got plenty of money. And privatization is what we’re aiming for. But whatever. Moving on.
I heard (as I said, I haven’t confirmed this yet, so don’t quote me on it) that Ron Paul has been confirmed as Mitt Romney’s campaing running-mate / likely VP. Which just screams no bueno to me.

Also wrong, Paul Ryan has been chosen as Mitts VP. And he is no bueno, but that’s been well-known for some time. Paul Ryan being VP is no smack to the face.
I understand his name is awfully close, though. All these Pauls, but Pauls the other guys first name, and Ron Pauls last name.

Although, I’d say the congressional Pension is the biggest sign that he’s not quite a sell-out (that thing where congressmen basically get paid for life, which he called “immoral”, because it freaking is) We also have to take into account how he’s worked to dissolve social security. Not by taking away the money who have paid for it, and further helping people to simply be ‘stolen from’, but by working to help the rest of us ‘opt out’. It was a no-go, as any real move to get rid of the ponzi schemes is, but I liked the plan.
