Interesting that he doesn’t remember a thing.

According to Paul...no cross words, but can’t remember what was being said the moment the picture was taken.

I don’t read too much into that. He’s looking more and more like a doddering old isolationist, but he really might not remember exactly what was being said.

This, however, ought to confirm that he wasn’t being “battered.”

If a battery was being committed, he’d remember that.

Are you sure? He may have been so shocked by the assault he blacked out. Happens all the time.

Yes, Globalism is working out really well for the USA, isn’t it?

Wow! Pretty cool and classy response by Ron Paul to inquiries as to what happened. Staying above the petty and personal is what he’s doing here. Good move...

Me thinks that all the other candidates have been watching this...and know for certain now that Perry has hot buttons that can be easily pushed that reveal who he is. The next debate should be interesting...

=8-)

Maybe Perry was saying, “Hey ... I saw the internet attack ad you launched on me today... but don’t worry.... you’re pretty irrelevant, so I’m not going to waste the campaign funds to attack you.”

Yeah... I see the Paultards advancing the meme that Perry has an anger problem. That’s what Wisconsin libs tried to do to Justice Prosser.

So completely naive and dangerous isolation is going to be great for US?

Rand Paul said that the exchange between Perry and his father was actually friendly: http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/hannity/index.html#/v/1150083970001/rand-paul-on-hannity/?playlist_id=158694 (He apparently got that information form his father’s campaign staff)

It starts at the 50 second mark.

Although a picture is often worth a thousand words, sometimes none of those words are true.

Yup, it's possible. And it's also possible that Paul blacks out all the time anyway, even when not being assaulted.

Globalism has sucked the American economy dry.

That is the goal and you’ve nearly completed it.

...YEA! We send our best and brightest warriors to every hell hole in the world to find "Our Enemies". So what if some of them die? We'll just tell their loved ones they were heroes, and that will make up for it. So what if it costs trillions? We can just print more Monopoly money and keep jobs in the Military Industrial Complex!!! /sarc

...Sorry gh, my rant broke down towards the end... (-;]

Now look Ron, you don't need a tin foil hat.
There's no such thing as UFOs and little green men.

Ron Paul may be smarter than I thought. It does not matter what he or Perry say about this incident. There is a picture that gives an image of a younger man pointing his finger in the face of an old man....

AND Perry is willing to address Social Security... This picture, ‘image’ IS NOT going to help Perry, given the LONG record liberals have of accusing Republicans of trying to cheat old people out of their social security....

Not everyone in this nation pays attention to political games.

I gave up cable tv awhile ago and occasionally see clips from Fox News and I always wonder, when I do, why such animosity towards Hannity here on FR (at least from some). I think Hannity is very, very good. Sure he’s no Rush Limbaugh, sure he’s no Mark Levin, but he’s very, very good.

I like Sean Hannity.

...and 50 plus years of globe trotting stop the towers from being hit? Let’s just send all the troops overseas and leave Homeland Security to take care of us!!!
