Upc Politician against Ron Paul
 
Check out this news regarding my long-time friend, Chris Peden.

Is the UPC and politics a good mix??? He has been getting coverage on NPR because of his opposition to Ron Paul.

He is running for U.S. Congressman

I hope he has a pretty thick skin. The Ron Paulites are a mean bunch when they get stirred up. But good for him. He seems like someone with a lot of ideas and a track record for keeping taxes under control.

Got news for ya... certain individuals in ANY adamant group of political supporters fit that bill.


I'm a Ron Paul supporter but I don't let it get me cross or stirred up when people disagree with him.

The other day I heard on the news that the latest poll has him up 10 points over Ron Paul.

It seems like that while Ron Paul's constituents like a conservative they had no real idea how wacky he was on the war in Iraq and weak on defense. Now that he has made his non interventionist peacenik international policy the cornerstone of his Presidential bid the folks back home had all of this shoved in their face and many don't like it.

Is Chris Peden related to Jerry Peden? Jery was assistant pastor at the church I attended at one time.
