My comments reflect my view of Ron Paul's positions, which are spelled out by his own words. He wants to cut funding for the War, (which in effect stabs our troops in the back),

That is a distortion, because removing the troops from Iraq is _not_ stabbing them in the back. You falsely attributed violence to Dr. Paul.

No, but cutting funding for them while they're still there most certainly IS.

You falsely attributed violence to Dr. Paul.

I falsely attributed NOTHING, and only a child would mis-read a rhetorical statement which has been used literally thousands of times in the past with a referral to an actual violent act.

How old are you?

"That is a distortion, because removing the troops from Iraq is _not_ stabbing them in the back. "

Difference of opinion - IMHO it is harming our military, and hamring *us* to wimp out on Iraq. If you want to support our troops, well and fully, support *all* the troops up to the Generals and CIC, and support the mission to successful completion.

It's sad indeed that Ron Paul followed the Democrats with their non-binding 'under cut the Iraq surge' bill.
