Vwoorp---Vwoorp--Vwoorp

My name is Travis Lampke, and I am snuggly (i.e. Big). My snuggliness is one of my favorite things about me (The snuggle part, not the fat part). I have often been likened to a large teddy bear (like...really often), and while this used to bother me, I've gotten used to it. (Comes with the territory) Cuz you know what? (What?) Teddy Bears are fucking adorable. (They are) Oh yeah, I'm 21, into Theatre, Blink 182, and Neil Patrick Harris. (Sex) Also, I'm in love. (A lot) Also, dolphins are adorable.
I've lived in Bloomington, Indiana my entire life. I'm about to start training to become a licensed Massage Therapist. Don't worry, if you're my friend, you still get free massages.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

Ron Paul fails to vote against NDAA (the bill authorizing indefinite detention of American citizens)

But I thought he was going to save us all from the Big Government menace? 

In Paul’s defense, he is running for President and has been campaigning like crazy in Iowa and New Hampshire in order to secure those primaries. He probably understood the bill was going to pass anyways and instead chose to focus his energies on his campaign, where he could arguably have a much greater impact.

You don’t run a campaign on the concept of absolute liberty and then fail to vote against the gravest attack on our civil liberties since the McCarthy era. Is Paul too busy to protect liberty? What a principled guy….

What in the fuck.

When You’re running for President, you have obligations.  If a vote gets called while you are out of the state, with commitments to appear at events in the state that holds the first primary in only 16 days, there’s not much you can do.  Not being able to get to Washington due to campaign commitments is not the same as voting for a bill.

    This is just like the Paulbots who are still calling on Congress to audit the Fed after Ron Paul got his bill to audit...
