Howdie Doodie?
Someone pass the jelly.......
Mmmmm.... IHOP.
Neither -
the Texas Congressman was asked his opinion on Cindy Sheehan’s recent comments that the U.S. is in danger of a staged terror attack or a Gulf of Tonkin style provocation that will validate the Neo-Con agenda and lead to the implementation of the infrastructure of martial law that Bush recently signed into law via executive order, as well as public pronouncements from prominent officials that the West needs terrorism to save a doomed foreign policy.
“I think we’re in great danger of it,” responded the Congressman, “We’re in danger in many ways, the attack on our civil liberties here at home, the foreign policy that’s in shambles and our obligations overseas and commitment which endangers our troops and our national defense.”
Hed was responding to a direct question.
Of course no one disputes that in 1964 the wh played fast and loose with the facts to get congress to vote for war, right?
And validating the LIHOP/MIHOP "truther" position in doing so.
But I hear that he does well with Scientologists, club-footed albinos, and members of the Area 51 Fan Club.
As Rosie O’Donnell said a few months ago “the Gulf of Tonkin, google it”, who knew she got a gig writing for Ron Paul.
Hare Hare Krishna Krishna to all...
I think he’s finally jumped the shark...........
How come they’re called Hairy Krishnas when they have no Hair?.......
I guess their infallible leader told them...
Paulie? You won't see him no more.
I certainly don’t understand why any one would be surprised. Ron Paul is listed as a ‘contributor’ at lewrockwell.com and antiwar.com. Both of these sites insist that the US Government is not above inciting a war just to increase it’s degree of control.
Loser.

Well there you have it. Ron Paul would rather see a nuclear Iran than see a preemptive first strike.
Tell us brother Ron, how many days or weeks would it be before Iran would supply it’s proxy terrorists with it newly developed toy?
Add any os these names to nuclear Ron. Al Qaeda, Taliban, Hamas, Fatah, Islam...
Nuclear Al Qaeda... sound like a good idea Ron?
Give Iran a first strike innoculation, but I’ll never join you. And after tbis I’ll certainly view you in a different light.
Ron Paul: U.S. In “Great Danger” Of Staged Terror

Presidential candidate Ron Paul says the U.S. is in “great danger” of a staged terror attack or a Gulf of Tonkin style provocation while also warning that a major collapse of the American economy is on the horizon and could be precipitated by the bombing of Iran and the closure of the Persian Gulf.
Speaking to The Alex Jones Show, the Texas Congressman was asked his opinion on Cindy Sheehan’s recent comments that the U.S. is in danger of a staged terror attack or a Gulf of Tonkin style provocation that will validate the Neo-Con agenda and lead to the implementation of the infrastructure of martial law that Bush recently signed into law via executive order, as well as public pronouncements from prominent officials that the West needs terrorism to save a doomed foreign policy.
“I think we’re in great danger of it,” responded the Congressman, “We’re in danger in many ways, the attack on our civil liberties here at home, the foreign policy that’s in shambles and our obligations overseas and commitment which endangers our troops and our national defense.”
“Every day we’re in worse shape and right now there’s an orchestrated effort to blame the Iranians for everything that’s gone wrong in Iraq and we’re quite concerned that the attack will be on Iran and that will jeopardize so many more of our troops, so I would say that we’re in much greater danger than we even were four or five years ago,” asserted Paul.
The presidential candidate expressed his despair that the situation in Iraq will not change until there is a total collapse of the American economy.
“There’s no way we can afford what we’re doing, whether it’s domestic spending or the international spending and very few people talk about the real cost of this economically speaking....this is unsustainable and it will be a threat to our dollar,” said Paul, adding that the onset of the meltdown could be sparked by the bombing of Iran and the closure of the Persian Gulf.
The Congressman added that the collapse was in its early stages with the major indication being a reduction in the living standard of middle class Americans but that “one single major world event” could change things overnight and precipitate a major downturn.
Paul added that there had “not been a national discussion on monetary policy in many many years” and the increasingly bleak outlook for the U.S. economy was also bringing more attention to the solutions the Congressman has proposed for reducing the burden of the mammoth national deficit.
Paul said that national and world events, especially the degrading situation in Iraq, were attracting support for his presidential campaign due to his resolute position on embracing a non-interventionist foreign policy.
The Congressman concluded by surmising that record lows in approval ratings for Bush, Cheney and Congress showed that, “The American people are alive and well and disgusted yet they haven’t had good alternatives....it’s justifiable, they are looking for true answers and options and quite frankly I think that’s probably one of the reasons why our campaign is growing by leaps and bounds right now.”

He stated that "since Iran is ten years away from developing a nuclear bomb" (a dubious claim to begin with) we should not be ready to attack them.
He then went on to speculate that a "Gulf of Tonkin" type attack could soon be staged, by the US or the Israelis, to justify an attack on Iraq.
He's firmly out there on the moon with the other bats.
