I find it troubling that Paul does not denounce the notion 9/11 was an inside job. His response here is “bigger fish to fry,” so maybe he does not ascribe much credibility to truthers in the first place? No other candidate on the GOP side has been more consistently dedicated to smaller government.
People seem to confuse the fact that the 9/11 attacks were motiviated by our foregin policy with the notion we took it upon ourselves to make Muslims look bad; planning and carrying out the 9/11 attacks ourselves. Painful as it is, the former is not an unreasonable fact to acknowledge. The latter is preposterous.
I have yet to hear Ron Paul patently say the USA planned and carried out the 9/11 attacks, but have neard many people make that inference by virtue of Paul’s consistent, anti-fed statements. I don’t think he would have a problem with a smaller, highly trained military that would have castrated Atta and his buddies before they even crossed our border.
While it is true that when one votes, he votes for everything the candidate represents, never in this life will we enjoy a candidate who subsumes into principle all that is good. I’ve had to hold my nose in every election in my lifetime except Ronald Reagan.
When did it become to “conservative” to blindly swallow what the federal government was spewing?
Lemmings. All lemmings.
