2008 Candidates Forum: The Real Story

I would like to mention that there was a Candidates Forum in which Peden spoke a few days ago here in Victoria, Texas. It was televised live for District 14.

Peden claimed then and still claims that Ron Paul was a no show.

Congressman Paul WAS NOT INVITED to this forum and I am positive that Peden knew that (and most likely had a hand in it).

Second - Mr. Peden took that opportunity to smear Ron Paul for a full two minutes, instead of ever actually saying what HE stood for.

Chris Peden likes to talk about what he thinks of Ron Paul  but he NEVER actually says what he wants or stands for.

A congressman is supposed to represent his district and Ron Paul does just that.

70% of the people in this District (and America) OPPOSE the war and Bush.

That being said, if Dr. Paul's voting record is only 37% in line with President Bush, then I would say that he does his job EFFECTIVELY.

Speaking of being effective, Mr. Peden fought LULAC (and lost) trying to get a simple city ordinance passed in his hometown. He wanted English to be the official language there, because well - there wasn't anything more important to fight for I guess.

If Peden cannot get a tiny little ordinance passed in a small town, how does he think he will ever make it in Washington?

Another gripe Peden has is that Ron Paul fights for the people of his District and votes "no" on many things just to make a point. I ask Chris Peden: Then what exactly are you doing by saying on your website that even though you lost the battle with LULAC, that you will continue to fight it?

Isn't there anything more important in the District than a ridiculous "English Only" ordinance?

I would also like to inform the Peden campaign that you can't just post campaign signs anywhere you feel like it. You have to ask permission.

This is a growing problem in Victoria. Most all of Peden's signs have been placed on private property without permission (right next to a Ron Paul sign).  I am pretty sure there are laws you are breaking – but instead of getting a lawyer, wasting money, and suing you over something like that (as you are currently doing) – I am just letting you know this way.

Also – why on earth would Peden have a “Fundraiser” on March 2 – two days before the election?

I say it is just a way to get back the campaign money (over $150,000) that he loaned himself. Don’t fall for it people.

I am a Freedom supporter. I support Ron Paul and his ideals.

I will continue to support Ron Paul and is message long after this election is over.

I stand FOR something...

Why don't you try the same?

More so - if you do not like what I have to say here, then don't take the time to click on my blog, and then my profile, and then the comment area, and then to finally enter that godforsaken security code at the bottom.

Just use all of that anger and energy to do some good. It takes a lot more muscles and energy to frown that it does to smile.

You seem to be the "typical" Ron Paul supporter.. You should actually do MORE research on your candidate and find out how many bills he has actually gotten PASSED ... what GOOD has he actually done ? what changes has he made ? I mean really...And when did you get your LAW degree ? From your profile it doesnt seem you have ever even had a job  ! Oh wait you were in the reserves.. and that is once a month deal....When is the last time YOU volunteered for anything ? How many times have you went to lend a hand at any of the many natural disasters that have happened in the us and mexico in the past 5 years ? Have you ever even looked out side of Shiner and VIctoria to see what this big ole world is about ? wake up ..little gal !
