Ron Paul Says Surge Failed, & We Lost In Southern Iraq

Needs Of The Many ^

[vaper69]

This guy is becoming even more of an idiot than I thought. It's ok to want out of Iraq, but it's another thing to lie about it in order to get votes.

He was properly smacked by McCain for his comments. To which Ron Paul supporters tried to boo McCain, but were drowned out with cheers for McCain as McCain schooled Paul on the facts of Vietnam.

I will post video as soon as I have it, and the latest numbers of a decline in violence in Iraq. Which Paul says is because the Brits are pulling out of Basra. Problem is that the violence in Basra declined 80% WHILE the Brits were there. They are pulling out because there is no more need for them there.

Update:

Here is a graph that shows the decline in violence in Iraq since the surge.

We Lost? We did? And this baboon wants to be the Commander in Chief?????

Ron Paul cannot be trusted to defend America. He has no intent to do so. Simple as that.

I thought he said that the violence was down in the south cuz Al Sadr had the region controlled and that’s why the Brits were able to pull out?

I think you are so right.

What an unmitigated load of crap.

Ron Paul is as bad as Nancy and Harry, if not worse.

The best way to get rid of Nutsy Fagan is for the Dem nomination race to heat up - no cross-party voting in the primaries that way.

Unfortunately, he’s going to do well enough in NH to stay in for a while longer (remember the LP’s Free State Project?).

I think he actually said violence was down because the Brits moved out and the Sadr army moved in.

[Jet Jaguar]

” Already, part of their country has been taken back. In the south, they claim the surge has worked, but the surge really hasn’t worked. There’s less violence, but al-Sadr has essentially won in the south.

The British are leaving. The brigade of Al Sadr now is in charge, so they are getting their country back. They’re in charge up north — the Shia — the people in the north are in charge, as well, and there’s no violence up there or nearly as much.”

The violence is significantly down all over Iraq. What's Paul's leftist-mantra excuse for the huge drop in incidents in Anbar Province? In Baghdad? In Mosul? In Tal Afar? I could go on, but you get my drift.

The sad thing is, Ron Paul can say any outlandish, moonbatty thing he wants and his followers will eat it right up without question.

The mark of a true cult leader.

Not only is Ron Paul losing his grip on reality, he may be downright dangerous.

The only thing more embarrassing than Run Paul is his support here on FreeRepublic.

My goodness, even Murtha is coming around. Does this mean Ron Paul is worse?

[SunkenCiv]

MRSA, oops, I mean Murtha, and Ron Paul are idealogically in overlap; however, MRSA is canny enough to understand when to hold ‘em and when to fold ‘em. That old crook has another, hmm, three? five? years to go.
