More Hits From the Ron Paul Experience! A delightful appearance on 9/11 Truther Alex Jones' wackadoo radio show.
Let's see:
1. He supports Dennis Kucinich's desire for a fresh, Truther-friendly investigation into the "cover up" of 9/11.
2. He goes on Truther radio shows.
3. He suggests, Trutherifically, that the US will phony up a fake attack by Iran on our troops (probably killing Americans, as we may have done on 9/11) in order to have a pretext to bomb the mullahs. So, you know, if Iran actually does fire on American warships, his supporters will know it's actually all a contrivance by the US government. (As was Iran's taking of British hostages, presumably. As was the Khobar Towers bombing, presumably.)
But he's not a Truther, oh no, and he's definitely not a conspiracy nutter or John Bircher crank. Nor is he some kind of Dogmatically Dopey Barroom Ideologue.
No, he's a Serious American Candidate with all sorts of Important Principles about Limited Constitutional Government and the Gold Standard and Suchlike Things.
Whatever. If I wanted a fruitcake candidate, I'd've supported Alan Freakin' Keyes in 2000 (or 1996, or 2002, or 2004, or any of the six thousand other times he's run haplessly for public office).
More! "Powerful banking interests" behind the creation of the American central banking system (which has no place Under Our Constitution (TM), by the way).
THIS is your candidate???
Okay, so now you're posting "Stuff that other people have said about Ron Paul" as your argument against Ron Paul.
HELLO, Appeal to Authority, Popularity, Ridicule, and Bandwagon Logical Fallacies all wrapped into one! I guess I was correct in my estimation that you haven't even the faintest familiarity with the Science of Logic, whatsoever.
Well, I suppose I'll violate the wisdom of King Solomon's Proverbs, and answer a Fool according to his Folly: Let's see what National Review, the cornerstone magazine of the Conservative Movement since the 1950's, has to say about Ron Paul:
Nits aside, the broad outlook there is conservative in a way we don’t often see from a presidential candidate. It is, in fact, conservatism of exceptional purity. Unlike the product in that automobile commercial, this is your father’s conservatism — the Old-Time Religion. What is there among Ron Paul’s policy prescriptions that the young William F. Buckley would have disagreed with?

RON PAUL. "Conservatism of Exceptional Purity".
This IS your Father's Oldsmobile.
