Guilt by assocation does not make for good fact checking. Sorry.

Dude, they agree with each other on the show.

And associations do matter.

Would you say the same thing about people who hang out with Rev Wright? Or members of the KKK? Or self declared NAZIS?

“Have you heard the words of those who attacked us on 9/11 as to why they did so?”

Not this $hit again....
You folks would have been the ones apologizing to Hirohito and Yamamoto after Pearl Harbor was attacked. We probably “had it coming” then also...

It is one thing to ascribe motives to the attackers on account of our actions on their turf. It is another to assert our own leaders plotted and carried out the 9/11 attacks. Please direct me to some link or evidence where Ron Paul asserts the latter. Thanks!

Not at all. But I don't believe everything I hear and read, either. Ain't no way I'm going to “apologize” to those who attacked us on 9/11. If I had my way, those boys would have had their nuts cut off before they ever entered the States.

Watched the whole thing. Paul does not in any way assert that our own government planned and executed the attacks. I would expect the fed to cover its tracks inasmuch as they are complicit in setting up shop on rattlesnake turf.

But I must yield to the truth that militant Muslims are a genuine threat, not to be underestimated on a temporal basis. Same goes for socialists and communists. In the greater scheme of things, Ron Paul does not concern me in the least when it comes to governance, nor do the other contenders with the exception of Zero . . . who needs to GO AWAY.

So the crackpot Paul refused to let anyone write his speeches yet for decades he claims he did not write the racist vile newsletters that had his name on them? More Ron Paul BS.

I love revoking all executive orders. I’ve always said that if given the power, I’d do the same thing. The vetoes, too. I’ve occasionally said that if I ever somehow stumbled into that office, my first act would be to send an intern down to the office supply store to get a lot of ink pads and a lot of rubber stamps saying “VETO”.

Who knows? Given the timeframe - about 15-25 years ago, who really cares?

I realize of course that on anti-Ron Paul threads the fact that he might have picked his nose 10 years ago is of paramount importance, but for most folks it’s ancient history.

Who cares? The American people should care. Each one should be studying his entire resume’ and easily determining that he is not worthy of the position he is applying for. The “who cares” is what got us Obama.

I care for my family and country about a racist incompetent libertarian kook running for office who has a naive and very dangerous foreign policy, nutty drug policy, supports OWS, frequents conspiracy nut shows, blames the US for 9/11, and is a nut that nobody in Congress respects or could work with.

Ron Paul is NOT conservative, NOT Tea Party, and NOT GOP. He is the streetcorner crazy that people cross the street to avoid.

We lived in Pauls district from ‘63 till ‘79. We never voted for him then and won't vote for him now. He has some good ideas and some nutty ideas, too nutty.

It took a long for RuPaul’s moonbattery to see the light of day.

“Ron Paul is NOT conservative, NOT Tea Party, and NOT GOP. He is the streetcorner crazy that people cross the street to avoid.”

So I guess you’ll be voting for mittens in the general then. Because that’s the way this is shaping up: mittens, barky and Ron Paul as 3rd party.

You make a lot of assumptions, huh?

But if you want to know, I DO NOT vote for liberals, blatant RINOs, or dangerous crazies.

We’ll see. I expect to see a lot of folks who talked the talk about mittens to vote for him. And that will be very entertaining to watch them rationalize that decision next fall.

It is just really sad that a crackpot is polluting the GOP field during the needed vetting of serious candidates of across the GOP political spectrum. While Romney and his enablers need to be defeated by conservatives, Paul and his cult are sucking the oxygen out of the primary process.

I think the oxygen was sucked out the process the day Sarah Palin decided not to run.

Now we’re just making tradeoffs.
