Reposting per directions of Moderator / Admin. No previous thread link provided - noted previous search shortcomings with apology in advance in previous posting.

Once again, of interest in this video for me was the speech given by Glen Massie, USMC veteran and Iowa state representative.

Noted the various flavors of oaths - all with a basis in reference to the Constitution.

Ah lets see there were 250 - 500 vets and friends there.......not even as many as show up for that stink’n liberal Romney.
Again it is Paul and his supporters that say he is getting all this monetary support, show me the link to the actual FEC reporting data.

I wonder if Ron Paul thinks the Vet should be charged with “War Crimes” since he calls the action(s) in Afghanistan, Iraq illegal.

Like on many other issues, the sly Ron Paul plays it both sides of the fence, like

Freedom = Legalize Drugs Now!
Reduce International Ties = Sell Israel into the hands of it’s enemies

Recently Paul was asked was WWII a just war, should the US have been involved. HIs answer? NO. When pressed about stopping the Holocaust, he said it was not right to endanger American lives to stop it.

Ron Paul.
Just Flat Wrong, but sly enough to wrap it in the cloak of the Constitution. Take the skin of a Truth (the paper of the constitution) and stuff it with the lies of Racism, Self-Interest and Greed.

Cleaning the cobwebs from my sleepy brain, I’ll ask just so I can be sure.

You’re saying you support RUPaul ?

I like small government. I am 62 years old and the government has done nothing but grow my entire life, under both Republicans and Democrats.
