This is very simple and not at all complex.
It’s about the Benjamins. Your Benjamins, that is.
RP wants to end all foreign aid - and Israel is the 2nd largest recipient of US foreign aid. Other Americans want to continue to send our taxes to foreign countries. And they are willing to play the race card to keep the cash flowing.
I’m not a Paulista because his foreign policy isn’t going to work, not after the last 100 years of American diplomacy and war. But he ain’t a racist. I have a problem with the liars and manipulators who use that kind of unfounded smear.
Kucinich/Paul = The American Monster Raving Loony Party Ticket
Should be fun to listen to what the Paul supporters here have to say.
Is it any wonder that Rudy, the probable GOP nominee, has proudly accepted the support of "blame America for 911" types like Pat Robertson?
not sure Ron Paul is interested in playing VP with him.
QUESTIONER: Congressman, if you were not running, right now, for office, is there a current candidate that you would identify with most and who would you vote for yourself?
RP: ... theres been some that hinted that they might run... thats Chuck Hagel... I dont know a lot about his other programs, but because foreign policy to me is so important
... on the Democratic side, it just happens that Dennis Kucinich is a good friend of mine
see the video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPindngYxvk

Final Vote: 411 YEAS, 2 NAYS, 11 PRESENT, 8 NV.
Who are those two nays? None other than Congressmen Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich. H RES 548
H RES 557 BILL TITLE: Strongly condemning the United Nations Human Rights Council for ignoring severe human rights abuses in various countries, while choosing to unfairly target Israel by including it as the only country permanently placed on the Councils agenda

Who are those two nays? You guessed itCongressmen Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich.

I’m not that surprised by Rudy accepting such an endorsement.
But, this thread isn’t about him. It’s about Kucinich and Paul. Two of the most anti-Israel Congressmen in the nation. And I would rather be endorsed by Pat Robertson than by David Duke.
I don't think he's a racist.
I do think he's comfortable from racists and antisemites. The only candidate of either party comfortable with support from the hate community I can think of.
That's not a smear, it's a fact.
Giuliani was thoroughly dealt with here. At this time, an aggressive foreign policy to deal with the middle east trumps all other issues.
At least Giuliani is right on this issue. Ron Paul is way off the cliff. His position is not only fatal politically to Conservatives, but fatal for our nation.
Ron Paul and his supporters should GTFO!
One kinda good thing for Ron Paul...I saw an interview with him this week. He said he wouldn’t support a Democrat for President or run as a third-party candidate.
I guess Abe Forman was getting nostalgic for the sight of his name in print. Kucinich is a laughing stock even in his own party, speculating on such matters amounts to mental masturbation.
One called Sean Hannity’s radio program yesterday, defending Ron Paul supporters, saying that they were not all a bunch of 9/11 Truthers like Hannity said earlier in the program. At first the caller sounded normal, but within minutes he was spewing 9/11 Truther garbage proving Hannity was right all along.
His name can never be in print too much.
Most other Conservative talk shows are ignoring nut-ball-paul.
Paul didn't embrace Duke's support and proudly pose with him in a feel-good press conference. If he had, you'd have a valid point. Rudy, on the other hand, did embrace Robertson's point. Rudy (like Paul) can't help who endorses him but he can help who he embraces as an ally. That is the crux of the difference. BTW, Duke also endorsed GHWB.
There's undoubtedly be some Paul supporters on this forum trying to convince everyone that a Kucinich/Paul (or the reverse) 3rd party ticket would siphon more Republican votes than Democrat votes.
From the I’ll do/say anything to be President Department?
If Ron Paul isn’t available maybe Kucinich can get the other Paul—Paul Findley. He’s only 86.
This kind of thing speaks volumes about Ron Paul. Kucinich we already have understood for a long time.
There are still a disturbing number of people supporting Giuliani here.
And, no...the Middle East does not trump all other issues. It’s important, but other issues are just as important.
