Challenges to the U.S. (Paul Craig Roberts' Last NewsMax Column?)

Poor Paul no longer shows up on the pundits page on NewsMax. I've enjoyed posting his nonsense since even FR's doom and gloomers like Willie Green (may he whine in peace) and A.Pole realized that Paul had gone insane.

I thought perhaps he was taking a break for the New Year, but he seems to have scribbled 8 columns so far this year for VDARE, so we might not see any more of his "wisdom" on Free Republic.

Paul's last hurrah? Ping!!

[AnAmericanMother]

Anybody who starts out his column treating fiction as truth has no place to go but downhill.

[COEXERJ145]

Obligatory graphic.

>>>>Congress appropriated funds for building concentration camps in the United States

Anyone have a link for more about this?

What's this article about? I don't feel like wasting my time on it . . . if you read it, my sympathies.

[dighton]

There was no debate in Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia, and none today in the United States.

So, PCR, how are things in the concentration camp?

[Columbine]

It's amazing how many people lap up every bit of his garbage and think they've heard the truth.

[Toddsterpatriot]

What's this article about?

Bush bad....bla...bla...Bush Hitler....bla...bla...Bush destroying our rights....Bush destroying our freedom......bla....bla.

The same as all his other columns.

Anyone have a link for more about this?

The only links are in Paul's addled mind.

I've read The Daughter of Time. It's a good read, well written. But it's FICTION. The "innocence of Richard III" crowd, like the "Bacon wrote Shakespeare" crowd and the "Flat Earth" crowd, will be with us always.

And so, apparently, will Paul Craig Roberts.

He says he's concerned about truth and then he tosses out one whopper after another.

[Sherman Logan]

Tey makes the point that if a 20th century mystery writer can detect the truth about a 15th century murder, historians have no excuse to persist in writing in school textbooks that Richard murdered his nephews.

Remarkably large IF.

Nobody knows who murdered the little princes. The theory that Henry VII did it is based on the highly unlikely theory that Richard III would keep them locked up incommunicado as his support eroded because of suspicion he'd bumped them off.

If you stop by the trade/economics threads, periodically one of the True Believers™ posts a link.

[Sherman Logan]

There was no debate in Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia, and none today in the United States.

Good. I'm tired of y'all debating with me. :)

[roses of sharon]

Paul forgets that its only his liberal friends and their constituents for whom history begins when they wake up in the morning.

Not Free Republic.

...but he seems to have scribbled 8 columns so far this year for VDARE, so we might not see any more of his "wisdom" on Free Republic.

Good riddance to bad trash. At least with VDARE, he's finally with his own kind. Even the insane need company.

[wideawake]

Obviously he's a lunatic.

But he repeats here a couple of tropes popular among palaeocon leftists and other leftists.

(1) President Lincoln never said before, during or after the Civil War that his goal was to free the slaves. His stated goal was to preserve the Union and he said openly that freeing the slaves or keeping them in bondage was a subordinate concern to this goal.

(2) President Bush never said that his goal was freedom in Iraq. He said that his goal was the removal of a dictator whose regime was inimical to US interests and US security. Freedom for Iraqis was a positive externality.

[Night Hides Not]

Just like some great opuses (opii?) I've read here on FreeRepublic, PCR goes out with a bang.

Seriously though, he needs to put his bong down. His grasp of history is tenuous, at best.

[Calpernia]

NewsMax carries enough good articles to make me want to know what the basis of that comment is.
