The Ron Paul Political Report

October 15 1991

Volume V Number 10

Page 7

American Values?

During the Iraq war, American troops were instructed to use specially equipped tanks to bulldoze the trenches that held Iraqi soldiers- Not a single American was hurt, so meager was the resistance. Thousands of Iraqis, teenagers coerced into the army by the dictator Hussein, were buried alive, while the unprecedented military tactic was hidden from the public through media censorship. Captain Benny Williams, who Led the charge was awarded the Silver Star for his role. Also hidden: the apparent fact that many of the rag-tag teenage soldiers were trying to surrender as they were entombed.

Got some tough talk? I'm here now. Let's hear your tough talk if you've got something meaningful to say.

He's a Paulestinian, Allegra.

He has gas where a man's guts ought to be, and tapwater in place of a spine.

....and I didn’t say it didn’t happen.

Who friggin’ cares if they use a bulldozer to kill guys in a trench......while getting shot at? Not me. I was trained to actually kill the enemy.....to kill the guy shooting at me and my guys. ...not to worry about what some politician seeking air-time was gonna say about it from the safety fo 10000 miles of separation from the action.

Would you rather me and my troops have to clear the trenches the old fashioned hand-hand and bayonet manner...and have me lose half my guys?

Can we please allow our highly trained killing machines to actually kill the enemy without whining about it afterwards?

Nawwww.....there’s gotta be a war crime in there for a politician to rant about.

So Paul just quickly rehashed a long story into a 2 paragraph blurb in a newsletter. 16 years later a Washington DC thinktank employee trudges down to the Library of Congress and reads through dozens of Ron Paul’s publications. He finds the six best smear tactic articles, misquotes them through omission, posts them on FreeRepublic with incendiary misrepresentative thread titles, then promptly disappears from FR without defending his smear campaign.

That's right.

16 years.

Because Ron Paul has refused to release the content of his newsletters.

He contends that even asking is accusing him of antisemitism.

What possible reason could Paul have for concealing the content of his newsletters?

Maybe we should have gone after them with flame throwers and killed them by burning them alive like WWII, eh?...THEY WERE THE ENEMY...And we killed them....That is not a war crime. Ron Paul is a whack job.

The criticism at the time was that our troops should have dismounted, to give the Iraqis a fair chance to kill them I suppose. Quite a recomendation for Commander in Chief. If suffocation is disallowed, I suppose we abandon all anti-submarine efforts.

If you think that slander of American troops based on a complete lack of understaning of the use breaching equipment and laws of war is a serious criticism, you need help.
Were I a neocon, I would love the stupidity of paultards in discrediting their cause.

The Elite Republican plan of action for Ron Paul

Convince everyone Ron Paul is a crazy, racist, senile old man. All his supporters are dirty hippies that are all on drugs and are anti-Semite wackos.

Get the word out that voters in Iowa should vote for anyone they want, EXCEPT FOR Ron Paul. If they vote for him, the state will be a disgrace and the rest of America will hate Iowa forever.

If he wins, it will not even matter! The Republican leaders will ignore him and his crazy anti-American supporters and focus on the second and third place candidates.

Make sure that all media reporting includes the following: "There is no way Ron Paul will be the nominee. Remember you will be informed at the proper time who to support. (Remember McCain was broke around the NH primary and that didn't matter, it was his turn. You all did well supporting the Maverick.)

Drugs, never once forget Drugs, Ron Paul wants your children to use them! He want to flood the streets with released addicts and pushers along with TONS of cocaine. He really does love Heroin.

Remember, Your vote will only matter when you vote for who we choose, we know what is best for you! Relax, the Republicans have it all under control!
