What about the ones who are actually aliens?

Sarah Palin said she wasn't surprised at Rick Santorum's success in Iowa, and warned that the GOP should not take Ron Paul's supporters lightly.
Speaking on Fox News before Iowa's final numbers were in, she called Santorum "spot-on" with his policies toward Iran and praised his "social conservative" positions.
Her strongest comments came for Paul, however, saying "the GOP had better not marginalize Ron Paul and his supporters after this" because "a lot of Americans are war-weary and we are broke" and Paul has reached that constituency well. She warned that the GOP "better work with them."

Yes, lets not alienate those voters who believe the USA brought 9/11 on themselves.
I tend to agree with you to a large extent, but there are fellow Tea partiers in my chapter who are Paul supporters.
As for the rest of it, I saw it best expressed on another blog that Paul supporters tend to marginalize themselves....
because “a lot of Americans are war-weary and we are broke” and Paul has reached that constituency well.
Being war weary is one thing. Being ignorant of the fact that Iran and the islamofacists will not stop trying to destroy America or not caring because “war is not the answer” is another thing..
Gee Sarah when did you become a racist anti-Semite?
I wonder if that is what the German people said about Hitlers thugs.
Also true.
I agree with you. I first noticed their tactic during the 2008 primaries, when Google paid campaign workers to go in to New Hampshire and promote Wrong Paul. I truly wonder where his abundant funding comes from.
“Personally I think a real honest discussion of the issues would disarm him.”
Yes, but then who would you scream Paulbot! Hippy! Nutjob! at?
i would vote for ron paul over the other liberal rino Rep. - i made fun of him in the past, but better him than Milt or any of the others
Lol. You’re gonna get it now.
In my opinion, I have always suspected that she is a libertarian and promotes the libertarian agenda. She has done as good or better job of sowing dissension in GOP as has Wrong Paul.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they eventually team up as a 3rd party ticket.
So, is GB correct that Rue Paul is promoted by S0r0$?
I’ve never supported Ron Paul for president before, he has run several times and I’ve always support someone else even thou he is my Congressman. This time I can support him or Newt, things are that bad.
I sort of agree and sort of disagree with Sarah Palin.
Those wanting Ron Paul supporters to join with them, in favor of someone else, need to divide the Ron Paul supporters - separating the “wheat from the chaff”;
by appealing to the economic-Libertarians and those who agree with Paul’s general concern for our personal Liberty (we can at least ask ourselves if everything about our post 9/11 national security regime fully respects our essential Liberty?),
and not by trying to appeal to the Paul supporters among the 9/11 Truthers, the antiwar enthusiasts, or the transcendental-mediators and isolationist peace-niks.
In all fairness, one can say the same thing about a lot of conservatives.
It's also a lesson that a lot of conservatives could learn, especially here on FR.
The answer is simple. Wrong Paul and the libertarians have their own party, the Libertarian Party. That is where they belong, but they have viewed GOP as a convenient vehicle to get their candidates elected to office, Rand Paul being one prime example. Have a look at Campaign for Liberty, if you have not already.
It is fundamentally dishonest on the part of adamantly anti-war, anti-military, anti-Israel, isolationists like Wrong Paul and the Libertarians to pose as GOP.... WHEN THEY ARE NOT.
What Palin is declaring is an aggressive campaign of infiltration of the Republican Party, which FReepers have experienced at the local and state levels, as well as within Tea Party groups.
The LP is where far right meets far left, in a particularly nasty and un-American fashion, in my opinion.
Your doctor meant for you to take those pills every day. Maybe write yourself a reminder where you can see it, like on the liquor cabinet.
