Geez, is that all?!
Well, I guess he's OK then.
Interesting Side Note: "Truther" radio shows are used to discuss and disseminate paranoid "Truther" theories, re: 9/11.
Sort of what makes them "Truther" radio shows in the first place, actually.
But you knew this, of course.
A. He goes on truther radio shows. Assuming that's true, my guess is that Paul will go on any radio show, so that doesn't really bother me. B. He thinks the US will fabricate an incident to go to war with Iran. Well, not sure, but if we are planning to go to war you can bet we would try to at least provoke them into attacking first. C. He thinks the government was in on the WTC buildings collapse. This is a big one, anyone who believe that is a total nutjob. I would renounce my support of Paul if he believes that. OF course, it is not there at the link.
A nice way of getting around the fact that you posted something about Paul that you can not now back up.
Or, do you believe that any time anyone goes on a radio show it is proof he believes everything the host believes?
I am absolutely right in my assessment of the Ron Paul supporters. They are a sad story and they are extremely delusional to think that Ron Paul a defeatist and a traitor who wants to surrender to the terrorists in Iraq has any chance in the "real" world of winning the Republican primaries for President. They keep mentioning a stupid MSNBC poll hit by a majority of left wing lunatics to bump up Paul numbers. Let us get real here.
Here is a link to a video by Student Scholars For 9/11 Truth where Paul promises to talk to Dennis Kucinich about setting up a new investigation to look into 9/11.
Ron Paul meets Student Scholars for 9/11 Truth
(the discussion is at the very end, about 1:30 left, after his speech)
Are these the same people who claimed the Gulf of Tonkin incident was just a government plot to enlist public support for our war in SE Asia?
Washington, D.C., 1 December 2005 - The largest U.S. intelligence agency, the National Security Agency, today declassified over 140 formerly top secret documents — histories, chronologies, signals intelligence [SIGINT] reports, and oral history interviews — on the August 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident. Included in the release is a controversial article by Agency historian Robert J. Hanyok on SIGINT and the Tonkin Gulf which confirms what historians have long argued: that there was no second attack on U.S. ships in Tonkin on August 4, 1964. According to National Security Archive research fellow John Prados, “the American people have long deserved to know the full truth about the Gulf of Tonkin incident. The National Security Agency is to be commended for releasing this piece of the puzzle.

Ron Paul didn’t win Jack Sh!t. His chances are the same now as they were before. Zero.
Sorry, meant to ping you to post 86.
... answering what was, at base, a profoundly intellectually dishonest query on your part, actually.
Or, do you believe that any time anyone goes on a radio show it is proof he believes everything the host believes?
Plainly, you have either never actually listened to a "truther" broadcast, or else are simply being disingenuous (and not all that cleverly, either). "Truthers" do not seek out, encourage or even so much as allow for the presentation of "non-Truther" (i.e., sane) viewpoints on their programs. It's All Tin Foil! All the Time! -- period, full stop, end of sentence.
They give you air time: they agree with what you have to gibber on the topic. And RP's demonstrable willingness to do precisely that irrevocably marks him as just another twitchy, unblinking, black helicopter-dreading cartoon character -- this season's designated Buchanan, or Perot.
Good for a giggle. Nothing more.
And Ron Paul is the RIGHT Candidate for the anti American terrorists.
You know, I honestly don't know what's worse, his agreeing to a new 9-11 investigation, or his glowing praise of Dennis freakin Kucinich.
The man's insane.
Enough of this Ron Paul crap. Perhaps he can explain why he was only one (of two) republicans in the House to vote FOR an Iraqi withdrawal bill. Oh, and he joined 169 other Democrats to do it. He keeps great company, no?
Because he thinks that we shouldn't be meddling in Iraq on principle, and, that it does not do us any good. That every day we are there, it is just more US soldiers dying.
Now, I am not saying he is correct, or even that I agree with him.. I don't really. But, you asked for an explanation, and there it is.
The man's insane.
I spent the entire first half of my life (a quarter of a century) growing up in the Deep South.
Any damnfool crazy (or desperate) enough to genuinely believe, in their secretmost heart of hearts, that RP's bug-eyed conspiracy mongering, re: "the truth" behind 9/11, might have even so much as a micro-chance of finding favor with the majority of unabashedly patriotic conservative voters in places such as (for instance) Nashville, or Louisville, or Atlanta, is in for the coronary thrombosis-inducing shock of their politically whey-faced and unsuspecting lives.
"Bubba" don't play dat. ;)
Iraq Petition Presses for Withdrawal of U.S. Troops
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/05/11/world/middleeast/11cnd-iraq.html
BAGHDAD, May 11 — A majority of Iraq’s parliament has signed a petition for a legislative timetable governing a withdrawal of American troops from Iraq, several parliamentarians said today.
Officials in the Sadrist bloc said that 144 of parliament’s 275 members — including Sunni and Shiite Arabs and at least one Kurd — had signed the petition.
The petition mirrors the demands by some Democratic lawmakers in Washington for a timetable for the gradual withdrawal of American troops from Iraq.
The anti-American Shiite cleric Moktada al-Sadr sponsored the petition
For some reason, whenever Ron Paul was shown during the debate...I kept thinking of Pat PAULsen. The whole package somehow fit.
KDD, do you believe that Paul should get together with Dennis Kucinich and sponsor another investigation into 9-11?
I was born and have lived in the deep south for over half a century and I think you have been TrappedInLiberalSeattle so long that you have taken on the characteristics of the leftists you hob nob with there. You certainly do not speak(write)as a southern gentleman would...rather you shriek like one of those San Francisco gay pride anarchist loonies.
