An idiot from a “9/11 Truth” group cornered Ron Paul recently and asked why he hasn’t “come out about the truth about 9/11.”
Paul’s answer: he has too much to do, and he can’t handle the controversy....

Well, I'm not the one who did the linking. That said, Johnson is on the right side of some issues, such as Israel and Islamo-fascism, and the wrong side of others. But I'm sure that to call Ron Paul a Truther is ludicrous.
You've got a lot of names to call people.
Look, when you respond “What of it?” to the fact that Ron Paul and others have basically alluded to the fact that we somehow “deserved” what happened on 911. Or that this whole nation “deserves” the ills that Obama is trying to load on it you are getting on my fighting side.
God never said for the lost within a nation to humble themselves and pray. God said “if MY people, who are called by MY name” humble themselves in prayer, then he would heal their land.
There is nothing in their about spouting off and claiming that any of that kind of cr@p wis deserved. That is for God to say and sure not for anyone else to say about their own country in general.
We have risked fortunes and families and lives and livelyhoods to free OTHER people around the world. And that’s a fact.
Well, I am not a “truther” but I know that RP has a big following amongst them.
RP may not want to say anything that would alienate some of his base.
As far as I know, RP has never made any statement that would indicate that he himself is a “truther”.
RP never said “we deserved it”. He said US presence on Saudi Arabia was motivation to the terrorists.
If you watch one country go commie and fail after another decade after decade and then you decide to do the same thing, you get what you deserve. I think Americans will get what they deserve from electing socialists.
How can a country that elects socialists not deserve the socialism they enact?
GB,
Try to win the debate with ideas, not anger and insults. Your way is self-defeating.
If you are right, your idea will win.

And what will you get?
“Ron Paul is not a Truther - if by “Truther” you mean someone who thinks 9/11 was an inside job. If you attend any speeches the guy gives, you’ll see that he says it was a bunch of arabs pissed off at the US for our foreign policy.”
He HAS said that it was an inside job, and he has even said that he’s willing to team up with dennis kucinich (of all people) to conduct a new investigation.
In fact many of the senile old coot’s supporters are troofers themselves:

I guess I got to be a slave to the tyrannical imperial federal government of the USSA.
My bad, jalisco555. Meant to hit subby’s post.
Uh Oh
“He said US presence on Saudi Arabia was motivation to the terrorists.”
The mere fact that we breathe is motivation enough for them.
We have several at here at FR who are troofers. When you call them out you get silence.
“Truther” you mean someone who thinks 9/11 was an inside job”
Exactly how did someone who thinks 9/11 was an inside job become a “Truther”
I don’t think it was an inside job but I believe there was more to it than we have been told.
Two events that stand out in my mind are a C141 leaving Charleston, SC, heading northeast like a missile was on it’s tail, shortly after the attacks. Remember that because I had never seen a C141 flown like that before and have often wondered where it was going in such a hurry.
The second thing I remember where reports of people running/being sought in South Carolina through Alabama. Nothing ever came of these reports, were ghosts being chased (possibly) or were things going on that have never been revealed.
I think the Anthrax Attacks are the stranger part of it and am in no way convinced it wasn’t related to 9/11. Does that make me a “Truther”.
Responding to a tin foil hat wearing interviewer does not imply a belief in the assertions being made by the questioner.
RP has made his beliefs very clear, and 9/11 being an “inside job” is not it.
He has stated NUMEROUS TIMES that there should be another investigation into 9/11.
Like when? I would like to read the quotes and examine the context.
Thanks, ~SC
Iraq is hardly classified as a "war" these days.
I've seen "war" in Iraq and this ain't it.
I think you're being too generous to Congressman Paul, and I actually like the guy. If he doesn't believe in the 9/11 Truth garbage then he should have the courage to politely but clearly state as much. He likes to trumpet his commitment to principle but then he plays along with these people so as to not risk losing their support.
Of course, you can't expect perfection out of anyone, and certainly not from politicians.
