He started the newsletter in the late ‘80s when he was still in office. He left office and stopped working on it, putting it on auto-pilot.
If it was his newsletter with his name and reputation associated with it, as it appears to have been, he was either extremely foolish and irresponsible... or... he agreed with what was written in it. In either case, he isn’t off the hook.
Up front, I am not necessarily a Ron Paul supporter, but maybe, just maybe, Mr. Paul is reading the Constitution and returning the power to make those laws back to the several States, where it is MOST appropriate.
Washington, FedGov, is NOT the answer to all our problems. Acting Local or Statewide is better, as the solutions can be tailored to the local needs.
So, perhaps, Mr. Paul IS against the pedophiles, et al, but believes that increasing FedGov’s powers isn’t the way to go. Just my .02
Unfortunately that is all too true with a lot of those who can only sing one note.
When he is right, he is right. There is no one in Washington D.C. who can match his consistent commitment to limit the reach of government. Him being wrong on the WOT does not change this fact.
Don't we all worship the great god Democracy? Why shouldn't we try to set up other countries with a despicable form of government that we were warned to never adopt?
“I don’t care how invested you are in the Iraq war, Ron Paul takes his oath to protect and defend the Constitution more seriously than any other congress-critter out there.”
That he does.
I guess you guys have forgotten the Free Republic Motto:
R equals Gooood. D equals Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.
Go ask any "top tier candidate" supporter if you need clarification.
“Most of the “conservatives” on FR consider the Constitution quite fungible. It only is an issue when there’s a (D) at 1600.”
Unfortunately this is all too true.
Well, he’s been off the hook with his voters, who are 1/8th Black and 1/8th Hispanic. Nobody cares down there. His story that he fired the man is accepted.
I would be glad for him to get national media coverage to answer the question.
Uh, dude...got news for you, Israel is like another U.S. state...like Idaho, or Wisconsin...they have over a hundred thousand Americans living there...so, yes, it’s a good argument. I guess you are anti-semitic too?
Yes, he is. Ron Paul hates Jews, hates Israel too.
Wow...Ron Paul is nuttier than I thought! I didn’t know about his racist views, that’s highly interesting. Thanks for your post.
