Truly a shame, how in the end, "Helicopter" Ben's got all foreign aid covered. Bank on it.

Long ago Bill Buckley drummed the anti-Semites out of the conservative movement, and the movement thrived as a result. But the Jew-haters have returned. For years the Texas crackpot, Ron Paul, has been attacking America and Israel as imperialist powers — the Great Satan and the Little Satan, and calling for America’s retreat from the battle against our totalitarian enemies. At the recent CPAC conference Paul’s Jew-hating storm-troopers swarmed the Freedom Center’s table to vent their spleen against Israel as a Nazi state. Now Paul is making a priority of withdrawing aid for Israel — the only democracy in the Middle East and the only reliable ally of the United States. Here is an alert from Gary Bauer about the amendment Ron Paul is proposing which may be voted on today.

Special Alert
Representative Ron Paul (R-TX) has just introduced an amendment to end all U.S. aid to Israel. The amendment could be voted on before the day is over. I need your help right now to stop this ill-conceived proposal!

Don’t be deceived. This Ron Paul proposal would not lower our budget deficit. By abandoning Israel while its enemies are gaining strength, the risk of a major war in the Middle East would increase. A major war would cost the U.S. billions and billions of dollars as we have already seen in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The U.S. gives billions of dollars a year to foreign countries that hate us and regularly vote against us at the United Nations. But, Israel votes with the U.S. 97% of the time.

Ron Paul won the CPAC straw poll from his loyal college kids who are primarily interested in the legalization of drugs.
Donald Trump told the crowd during his speech last week that Ron Paul will never be elected president. Ron Paul would be 77 years old if elected.
Horowitz is quite correct that William F. Buckley elevated the conservative movement greatly by working to exclude racists, anti-semites, Birchers and the like.
>> What makes you think Conservatives want to have anything to do with him? <<
Well, Ron sure seems to have a lot of supporters here on FR. And I’ve read time and again that FR is supposed to be a conservative place — no room for libertarians, homos, etc.
Thanks for posting. I don’t think all his supporters realize how disgusting he really is.
So, that’s it? Done? Convicted?
Pathetic. Not that there are ever hysterical Jews that see a Nazi in every well done cheeseburger. No Sir, each and everyone, and each and ever scree is but always pure. Right?
Actually, that’s just the first... there are dozens upon dozens of pages of quotes much worse. That was just the first on the list and I am too lazy to transcribe all the other scans but you can google them and find images of the old newsletters.
I also found that one pretty telling and funny in several ways, both his opinions of the Israelis controlling our government to the ‘first person’ language (going against the ‘he didn’t write it argument’) to the Bohemian Grove and Skull and Bones conspiracy theories.
Ron Paul is definitely an enigma. I’ve met him on a couple of occasions, and he is as kind, pleasant, friendly, and sincere as any person you could meet. He has some really sound libertarian values.
But somehow he just goes bonkers on some things. I’d never support Paul for anything past his current congressional seat, but I still can’t help kind of liking the guy.
I think one needs to read Richard Maybury’s economics books to understand Ron Paul.
Non-interventionist, libertarian, free market, concerned with defense and not being involved with “Chaos-stan” which is what the old world is all about.
Trade with em but stay out of their business and avoid alliances.
Do not take from others and keep your word are the bottom line principles.
Sorry, I like to have first person evidence to slander a person, and I like to have the full context of a statement.

Oct. 11, 1996, Austin American-Statesman:
Paul’s aide, Eric Rittberg, said — as a Jew — he was “outraged and insulted by the senseless, anti-Semitic statements Mr. Morris is making.”
“Lefty is taking statements out of context,” Sullivan said. “When you are not looking at things in context, you can make anyone look horrible.”
You smoke alot of pot, don’t you?
Of course you are right about the muzzies. However before 1948 they were happily supplying us all the oil we wanted to buy and in fact United States was feared, respected and revered. When Israel was created by displacing Palestinian Arabs, that was the catalyst to hype up hatred of Jews and their main supporter, the US.
I've heard him on the topic many of foreign aid and all I've ever heard is that we should end it all. Here, for instance, is an article he wrote on it True Foreign Aid.
It's fine to dislike Ron Paul, even to think he's a "POS", but at least report his positions honestly.
I did happen to catch his son Rand Paul who has suggested ending all foreign aid. It was the interviewer, in this case Wolf Blitzer, who brought up Israel right after Hati as the two examples of nations that would be harmed.
Those sound extremist. Like the principles you would find in a healthy Republic - a Free Republic....something that the free, soveriegn citizens of that Republic (AKA Republicans) would espouse. In any case, to call into question the virtues of empire is treason you understand.
Israel are God's chosen people. They have no enemy of importance but God. They have no friend of importance but God. The modern state of Israel is not a sacred manifestation. That state does not need our protection. The geography of Israel is not sacred either, it is not the "Holy Land"
Exodus 19:5
Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
Romans 9
6 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
7 Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.
8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.
In any case, to call into question the virtues of empire is treason you understand.
Seems that way sometimes. I have read Mayburys books and teach them to my children. I wish I could get his newletter but it is out of my price range.
And you are jealous? At my age,(old)it keeps my cancer therapy from beating me up. Kinda like George Washington (he smoked for wooden teeth) and Queen Elizabeth (she smoked to relieve menstrual and then menopausal cramping.
But its not a lot, just when I feel like barfing.
Now, about you. Looks like my post was more than a meth head like you could understand! I mean, you’re handle indicates that you either really like Oscar, or your finger was really twitchy on the mouse when you hit ENTER.
But, its all good.
Take care now!
