It’s insanity. They’re all “Paultards” and “Paulbots” and loopy. That must be it. I bet you all convince a lot of people thinking about Ron Paul as a primary candidate to vote your way. Good work there! /sarc

It’s comments like yours, insulting the man instead of addressing the man’s politics, that made it so easy for me to vote Republican back when Reagan was being called senile, crazy, and fascist. So keep up the good work, get those independents rushing into your big tent!

And fwiw, I didn’t support Ross Perot and most Paul supporters I have met weren’t even able to vote while Perot was a factor. But this ‘crazy’ crap was leveled against Perot, too, and Perot has turned out to have been pretty prescient regarding the results of NAFTA and our national debt. I think that’s maybe the biggest failure your ‘insanity’ comments have when you spout them about Ron Paul—he’s been ‘crazy’ so long an awful lot of the folks behind the podiums up there are sounding like him. When all you’ve got is the “he’s got a wacky foreign policy” critique in an election that turns on domestic policy, I guess people like y’all are in deep $#!#.

RP said: To declare war on 1.2 billion Muslims and say all Muslims are the same, this is dangerous talk.

No one has proposed that. It's insane to argue against a completely false straw man.

RP says: "we killed a million Iraqis."

That is wildly false. It's insane to say that.

RP says: "they want to kill us because we're bombing them."

In the entire history of the U.S. we have not so much as thrown a firecracker at Iran. His statements are utterly insane.

Paul misstated Clappers testimony last night. Clapper didn’t say Iran DIDN’T have nukes or was close to getting them.

He said he DIDN’T KNOW if they did or were.

Frankly I would trust the MOSSAD over Clapper anyday.

Obama’s intelligence chief ignorant of U.K. terror arrests?

Paul is crazy. This is not an insult. I’m simply pointing out that “Dr. Paul” says things that are provably false and uses them as ammunition *against* the United States. Bachmann was correct when she said that he was dangerously naive. Paul might have reasonably coherent answers on domestic policy. The problem is that his foreign policy answers - which have ranged from naive to insane to dangerous - are an automatic disqualifier. I don’t care how well you can remodel my house if you aren’t going to luck the f***ing door.

Get this through your head. Ron Paul is *not* Presidential material.

There was a big difference between Ross Perot and the surrender monkey. Ross Perot did not want to see our military destroyed. Nor did he blame America for every problem in the world. Ross Perot wanted America safe through strength. Cut and Run thinks if we appease our enemies enough they will leave us alone.
How did that work for England under Nevile Chamberlain?
The most important duty of a president is to keep America safe. Cut and Run thinks the best way for us to be safe is to surrender.
