CITY TARGETS MARIJUANA DISPENSARY FOR VIOLATING ITS OWN BUSINESS LICENSE
Support Dr. Ron Paul and save this great nation.
Last link (before Google Books bends to gov't Will and drops the title):

The district left out that Hof was brought to Paul's Reno rally by a member of the media and the campaign's statements regarding the "endorsement". Shameful reporting to spin voters away from Dr. Paul's message of Peace, Freedom and Prosperity.
The Reno Gazette Journal has the full story.

Please visit www.thecaseforronpaul.com and judge for yourself.
I can’t imagine why people think Ron Paul’s campaign attracts conspiracy-minded nutjobs.
As for the Paul spokesman’s statement-- oh please. The spokesman coughs up some pro forma pro-Jesus fluff, which gives him an opportunity to remind Republican voters Dr. Paul is “a devout Christian”, but the campaign isn’t turning down the whorehouse money-- and that’s the only thing that would give those words any real meaning. (As devout Christians know, “faith, if it hath not works, is dead” (James 2:24))
I can’t imagine why people think Ron Paul’s campaign attracts the politically naïve.
Learn from Cleaner 44, people-- he comes off as rational and not ignorant of how politics works (caveat: I haven’t seen his website yet).
Yeah, I agree with you 100% there. I have faith that those prostitutes are going to work up a lot of fiat FRNs for Ron!
Seriously though, in order to have faith you have to be free. Without freedom, you cannot choose. Without choice, you cannot have works. Without works, you cannot have faith.
Paul is for the freedom of people to choose. I imagine this is why Hof likes Ron. Its also why I like Ron. You have to allow people to do bad things, provided they don't hurt anyone else in the process, so the good things are all that much better. If society outlawed all vice, we would look much like Saudi Arabia.
So, get ready to wear a burka and get lashes for calling a teddy bear the wrong name! Don't think that we are much different from our alleged enemies. Your comments might just prove you are one of them, just a different flavor.
But to suggest that the U.S., even given all the assaults on the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, is in any plausible danger of devolving into any sort of theocratic state with religious-based dress codes and the threat of physical punishment for those who offend the state-sanctioned faith is, at best, utter nonsense. The only place any American citizen is in danger of being whipped for blasphemy by his/her government is in the delusions of a paranoid mind.
And can you name a single presidential candidate who is campaigning. explicitly or implicitly, on “outlaw[ing] all vice”? Of course not. Not even the televangelist who ran in ‘88, Pat Robertson, had that in his platform.
I can’t imagine why people think Ron Paul’s campaign attracts the irrational.
You PAUL BRENNAN are stereotyping me and everyone else in this movement and you clearly don't get what fuels it. Its not a bunch of nut jobs as you would like to con everyone into believing. Sure, there are a lot of types that are pissed off about Waco and Ruby Ridge. Those people are scared of the government to begin with so any rational person can see why they'd like to support someone like Ron. It really is about freedom. If you are too irrational to get it PAUL BRENNAN, thats your problem not ours.
Frankly PAUL BRENNAN, I am hoping you are being disingenuous with your remarks. Anything else would have to reflectly poorly on your intelligence.
