LOL On ‘The Five’ today, Gutsfeld (sp) remarked when talking about Paul in the debate last night, ‘Paul was his usual self. Never fails to say something that makes sense followed by something stupid. It’s like ordering steak topped by necco wafers.

I actually think he has support because people do not know who he really is. It’s like they are projecting who they think he is, without even listing to him or reading his words.
I have had conversations with these supporters, showed them links to his own words, and they refuse to beleive he actually said what is right in front of them. So weird.

When Paul started to response to Bachmann I thought he was going CAPTAIN QUIGG for a minute. I was expecting him to reach into his pocket any second for the steel balls.

Here’s the scary part: the Paulbots may have the best ground game in Iowa, and that’s critical to winning the caucuses. Frank Luntz was on Hannity this afternoon; he’s been part of more than a few political campaigns and said he was “stunned” at Paul’s level of organization, which will generate a big turnout at the caucuses. In fact, Luntz said he expects Paul to rise in the Iowa polls (contrary to what most pundits are saying) and might even win the caucuses next month.

Don’t get me wrong; the winner in Iowa is almost never the GOP nominee, and Paul’s chances of winning the nomination are approximately zero. But it’s a sideshow the GOP doesn’t need, and it it means the eventual nominee will have to spend more time and effort beating back the lunatic fringe in his own party—not that I believe many of Paul’s volunteers are actually Republicans or conservatives.

Because the media loves the sideshow...to them, there’s nothing more entertaining than a GOP presidential candidate running to the left of Obama on foreign policy. They will gladly include Paul as long as he keeps running, even if he’s 80, 84, 88 or even 110. From their perspective, there’s no way Paul could be suffering from dementia, as long as he’s reciting some of their talking points.

Yes. Several iraqi artillery shell casings that were not fused were found to have traces of sarin on them. Also, this little gem: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25546334/ns/world_news-mideast_n_africa/t/secret-us-mission-hauls-uranium-iraq/

Yes.

Do we really have iron clad intelligence coimg out of Iran?
Taht they are enriching uranium past the 20% needed for power? Absolutely.
That they are building IRBMS and developing ICBMs? The Iranians are showing these off.

I sincerely doubt that PaulTards were Ross Perot supporters.

On April 22, 2009, Ross Perot was made an Honorary Green Beret at the John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center in Fayetteville, North Carolina, that also honored the OSS, Alamo Scouts and the First Special Service Force, elite World War Two units that were inducted into the "1st Special Forces" Regiment.

In May 2009, he was appointed an honorary chairman of The OSS Society. On October 15, 2009, the U.S. Military Academy at West Point awarded him with the distinguished Sylvanus Thayer Award.

On Oct. 2, 2010, Perot was given the William J. Donovan Award from the OSS Society at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Washington, D.C. He is the 26th receipent of the award.

Just prior to the 1979 Iranian Revolution, the government of Iran imprisoned two EDS employees in a contract dispute. Perot organized and sponsored their rescue. The rescue team was led by retired U.S. Army Special Forces Colonel Arthur D. "Bull" Simons. When the team was unable to find a way to extract their two prisoners, they decided to wait for a mob of pro-Ayatollah revolutionaries to storm the jail and free all 10,000 inmates, many of whom were political prisoners. The two prisoners then connected with the rescue team, and the team spirited them out of Iran via a risky border crossing into Turkey.

Perot became heavily involved in the Vietnam War POW/MIA issue. He believed that hundreds of American servicemen were left behind in Southeast Asia at the end of the U.S. involvement in the war, and that government officials were covering up POW/MIA investigations in order to avoid revealing a drug smuggling operation used to finance a secret war in Laos. Perot engaged in unauthorized back-channel discussions with Vietnamese officials in the late 1980s, which led to fractured relations between Perot and the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations. In 1990, Perot reached agreement with Vietnam's Foreign Ministry to become its business agent in the event that diplomatic relations were normalized. Perot also launched private investigations of, and attacks upon, U.S. Department of Defense official Richard Armitage.

Whether you agree with his actions or not whether he was crazy or not he was hardly a Ron Paul. He spent a lot of his own time and money trying to help POWs in Vietnam.

PAUL: To declare war on 1.2 billion Muslims and say all Muslims are the same, this is dangerous talk. Yeah, there are some radicals. But they don't come here to kill us because we're free and prosperous. Do they go to the Switzerland and Sweden? PAUL: I mean that's absurd! What is the whole world about the drone being in Iran and we're begging and pleading and how we're gonna start a war to get this drone back? Why were we fly a drone over Iran? Why do we have to bomb so many countries? You're trying to dramatize this that we have to go and treat Iran like we've treated Iraq and kill a million Iraqis and 8,000-some Americans have died since we've gone to war. You cannot solve these problems with war!

This simply does not make sense...sounds like the equivalent of flailing of the arms to make noise to distract from the fact you aren't answering the question or responding to the points made by another candidate.

As I told my wife Ron Paul probably because of his own experience or personal philosophy pushes for a world as he does as to what should be among nations. He surely lacks an understanding of how the world outside of his small world that seems to not affect him in Texas actually operates. I sometimes believe that Paul’s resolution of Pearl Harbor would have been to tell the Japs not to do it again before discussing their beefs. Young folks who live in their own one sided and time limited world really don’t see a need to be forceful against danger or aggression and fit Paul’s idea of the world. Of course their own actions are not such as shown by ‘Occupants’.

You may also be correct T. I was thinking more in the light of mind set of supporters. Projection.
So R, I may have missed you point completely then.
paulbots are a very strange lot, living in some other world for sure.

I think the majority of PaulTards were barely out of diapers when Perot ran I think. I can't speak for other Perot supporters but I voted for him and I never held him in fanatical esteem. I simply liked his calls for financial responsibility and accountability and no-nonsense law and order mindset. That in spite of my opinion that drugs should be decriminalized.

Compared to "One World Order - I quit the NRA" GHW Bush or used-car salesman Clinton he looked good to me.

Reagan = Aircraft carrier , Paul = leaky canoe. Media knows he will sink so why bother. But man they feared and hated Reagan.
