And yet there are myriad FReepers who still sing this guy’s praises.

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

Just what is a neocon FReeper?

Nothing. The term has no meaning whatsoever anymore. It's just an empty pejorative thrown around by mindless political neophytes.

[massgopguy]

Neocon is code for Jews. Ron Paul is Lyndon LeRouche’s clone.

[packrat35]

Always some knucklehead paulista shows up to defend him no matter how stupid.

[padre35]

Tragic to be sure, the permenant loss of Israeli sovereign lands is far more destructive in the medium and long term.

In this way I agree with Ron Paul’s view on foreign aid, imho the Israeli’s should be allowed to do whatever they need to do to protect their country with -0- interference on the part of the US, the flip side of that is no US aid to Israel either.

The culture in DC is if they send Israel money, the US may as well sit in on the Knesset and Cabinet.

Isolationism? Yeah maybe, then again the US Gov is functionally bankrupt.

Calling Cheney or any other gentile is a cover for their antisemitism. The thinking is, the Iraq war was manufactured and sold by Zionists for the benefit of the Jewish state — therefore anyone who supported it is a filthy, Jew-loving neocon. But if you call them on their Nazi-like tendencies, they cry "Cheney's not a Jew!".

It's a little game they picked up from their Nazi masters.

Ooooh!
Nice!

[fightinJAG]

Ron, please shut up.

This is one of the reasons I am not a Ron Paul fan, he is a phony and a fool as far as I am concerned. Dick Cheney helped in liberating over 27 million people from a tyrannical terrorist supporting fanatic. What the hell has Ron Paul done with his life except suck off the government tit?

[John D]

Ron Paul, Osama Obama, two peas in a pod. Not a dimes worth of difference between them as far as our national security. Both blame America for any problem in the world and are both surrender monkeys.

[Candor7]

Dick Cheney is doing EXACTLY what needs to be done.Paul is a pu$$y, he mouths off but does little thats effective. Just get out of the way Ron, or you be doned run over.

There is a media battle happening, and Cheney is winning it with truth.

[caww]

Beautiful contrast! Nailed it!

[vox_freedom]

With a hat tip to whomever produced this graphic.

[Uncle Ivan]

Ron Paul did his level best to split the GOP by bringing in the insane truther crowd, neo-Nazis, liberal anti-war types, all of which have the blame America first mentality that he shares, along with a strong dose of Antisemitism.

Paul needs to retire, go back to Texas, and STFU. I'd rather have a democrat in his seat than his anti-American ass.

[okie01]

Ron Paul has learned from the example of Pat Buchanan.

There's a fringe out there that will buy your books and contribute to your PAC if you just say what they want to hear.

You might say Paul is practicing capitalism on the tangent...

[John D]

I'd rather have a democrat in his seat than his anti-American ass.

There is a democrat, at least a person who acts like a democrat sitting in that seat.

[ColdWater]

Ron Paul’s right.

If Ron Paul had his way, .... Never mind, the thoughts are too frightening to put in a post.

[roses of sharon]

Na, foreign aid to the Pals and others never seems to make it into the talking points...this is not in the conversation of the “realists” in their quest for stability in the ME.

Israel is the problem, Israel's “occupation and oppression” is the only problem.

And the fastest and most effective way to get there is to destroy Israel's citizenry physically and mentally. This accomplishes the goals of Jews moving their families out, and Jews pressuring and electing a government that promise “peace” with the terrorists and “respect” from the UN, Europe, and the world.

[Matchett-PI]

"Ron Paul’s right. Neocon RINOs like Cheney need to shut up first."

Alex Jones, is that you?

Neither Ron Paul, Lew Rockwell, nor any of the other darlings of those whop hang out on web sites like PrisonPlanet could polish Cheney's shoes, troll.

My sense is that Cheney needs to differentiate those things the Bush admin did well from those things in which they either did poorly or did in such a way that parallels can be drawn to Obama mistakes.

On the Surge: that was a Bush success and Cheney should vigorously defend their initiation of the surge strategy against enormous opposition.

On the Bailout: the Bush admin actually began that fiasco, so it doesn’t make sense to complain about Obama bailouts.

On the Budget: the Bush admin had the House & Senate and they managed record overspending. Keep quiet on this one.

On Unemployment: the Bush admin has one of the best records in modern American history. I’d hit Obama hard on this one.

On Explosives on Plane: too easy to bring up the shoe-bomber. Be sure to be balanced on this.
