“Abolish the Federal Income Tax is NeoLeft?”

No. It was a discussion about Paul's insane 9/11 logic and foreign policy which mirror that of the NeoLeft. I earlier remarked that he was like McGovern when it came to his foreign policy.

This is a transcript I lifted from Michelle Malkin regarding Paul stating Democrats would do a better job with oversight and further lending credence to the 9/11 truther movement.

CALLER: I want a complete, impartial, and totally independent investigation of the events of September 11, 2001 . I’m tired of this bogus garbage about terrorism. Ask Michael Meacher about how he feels about this bogus war on terrorism. Can you comment on that please?

HON. DR. RON PAUL: Well, that would be nice to have. Unfortunately, we don’t have that in place. It will be a little bit better now with the Democrats now in charge of oversight. But you know, for top level policy there’s not a whole lot of difference between the two policies so a real investigation isn’t going to happen. But I think we have to keep pushing for it. And like you and others, we see the investigations that have been done so far as more or less cover-up and no real explanation of what went on.

Well, I happen to disagree with you on some policy matters. I do realize that his foreign policy, especially regarding terrorism, really has turned a lot of people off (most) here on FR.

Most here cannot or will not accept in any fashion any discussion at all about “blowback”. I personally can try to wrap my head around that. Most here do say 100% no to any of that. I recognize this. Ron Paul would do well to steer clear of “blowback” discussions.

I’m finding antiwar Dems these days even rejecting the blowback theory now that Obama is basically doing the same stuff as Bush on the antiterrorist front. They didn’t like it when Bush did it, but now that Obama is doing it, it’s ok.
