Newt the tough guy, always eager for war but never served, in fact had several deferments according to Ron?
He said he had a wife and baby but Ron said so did he and he went so what does that mean?
Romney also on the stage I think. He kept quiet.
How original. Now we pay other countries to fight our wars
Ah, good ol’ “Code Pink” Ron Paul. The picture of him posing with that group seems to have disappeared. That would make for another “flashback.”
Tough guy? Had there ever been bigger wimp? He said Bill Clinton made him melt, and bowed down to Nancy Pelosi.
There is more on this but here are some highlights.
Ron Paul was drafted as a doctor.
Gingrich never had problems with the draft.
According to the San Diego Union
“Gingrich registered for the draft when he turned 18 in 1961 and was contacted by his draft board to fill out a general information questionnaire in mid-1963. Upon reviewing the questionnaire, the board gave him a deferment on the basis of having a child, Selective Service System officials said Tuesday after reviewing ledgers from the era.
boy sure wish i had a guy like Ron Paul to vote for today. turned out to be right on so many things. i like that testy moment when they attacked him as a libertarian, but he answered that he was defending what was in the ‘Constitution.’ a lot of American boys and young men might still be alive today.
all that gope international ‘policing’ and ‘nation building’ bled America dry in foreign wars. obiden is just finishing the job on our own soil by opening our borders to invasion with gope blessing. so now it’s not only our military age men who are being destroyed. it’s our school age children.
Why does the guy in that video call Ron Paul a combat veteran?
This type of story really brings out the liberaltarians...
“””He said he had a wife and baby but Ron said so did he and he went so what does that mean?”””
There was a rule change about men with children, it was changed after Ron Paul was drafted as a peacetime doctor for the Air Force.
I wonder how Ron Paul feels about his own son not serving?
From the San Diego Union.
“THE FACTS: It’s true that Paul was a husband and father when he served as an active-duty Air Force doctor from 1963-1965. He turned 18 in 1953, finished medical school in 1961 and was drafted in 1962 under a law that said fathers had to serve unless their induction would cause their dependents extreme hardship.
But the draft was changed the following year, giving all fathers a pass without having to prove hardship. Gingrich registered for the draft when he turned 18 in 1961 and was contacted by his draft board to fill out a general information questionnaire in mid-1963. Upon reviewing the questionnaire, the board gave him a deferment on the basis of having a child, Selective Service System officials said Tuesday after reviewing ledgers from the era.”

Odd that you posted this guy’s dishonest video but aren’t interested in the corrections to it.
I believe you are unclear on what a republican form of government means. Old men don’t go to war. Some already served, some didn’t; but when elected they can start one and sometimes it is necessary, like Iran now. Should we have military age only vote whether to go to war or not?
