Video clip of her easily dissecting the whack-job "truther" movement on FOX's The Big Story, here.
Enjoy. ;)
He's not helping his cause by being a total nut-case......the Dennis Kucinich of the Republican Party.
Not only is he nutty, he looks screwy and sounds even worse......definitely not pluses in a presidential campaign.
It's all the Paul bashers got.
They can't refute Paul on the issues or question his rock-solid committment to the Constitution, so they have to resort to ad-hominems.
it's all about truthyness...
So why did he vote in favor of the WOT in Afghanistan then, genius.
You hit it dead on.
Hey...he's your guy. You explain him.
I would never attempt to explain the actions of someone in his condition.
The problem with RP is not whether what he said is true or not. The problem is that he showed a grievous lack of discretion and demonstrated gross political negligence. That alone justifies yanking him from further debates.
I am freakin’ fed up with the absolute misrepresentation of what Dr. Paul said.
Those who say he said we deserved 9/11 are liars or stupid.
He would never win ther big one?? So, why all the fuss?
Most of them are not true conservatives...You will know
the right one, conservative, by the end of the year..all
Pres. elections have wannabes...for later in the mix for
top Cabinet posts...JK
How did Paul give terrorists a pass?
I heard him explain what might have provoked them. I did NOT hear him suggest that justifies what they did.
Please tell us how Paul disses the Constitution. I’m unaware of him doing so.
He’s not “my guy” but I’ll be damned if someone who adheres to the Constitution the most is going to get criticized on this Forum that supports the Constitution.
If we pull out of Iraq, and out of the ME as Mr. Paul suggests, it will be a VICTORY for the terrorists, not just a retreat on our part. We toppled two terrorist supporting regimes. Even most democrats aren’t stupid enough to pull the rug out before we finish the missions.
The constitution was not intended to be a suicide pact or an excuse to be the world’s patsies. Did their status as founders stop Jefferson, Adams, Madison, and Monroe from projecting US military power in our national interests?
And if Mr. Paul is so keen on listening to what the terrorists have said in the past, maybe he ought to try listening to them now: declaring Iraq to be the #1 priority to defeat the infidel.
Paul supports the troops. What he (and the Founders) don’t support is the nation-building & propping up regimes aspect of it.
Those who say he said we deserved 9/11 are liars or stupid.
You could hear quite a few 'baaaahs' when the mob cheered Guiliani's so-called 'smackdown' of Paul (which really had no substance to it).
There is a huge difference between someone how disagrees for the war on constitutional principles and someone (a typical liberal kook) who disagrees with the war on pacifist and other irrational grounds.
A liberal is 'patriotic' in the sense that they want to mold and re-make America into a socialist, communist dystopia. That's truly unpatriotic, against the spirit of the country.
Ron Paul is patriotic in the sense of seeking to restore America to it's constitutional roots, to actually follow the Constitution. That's patriotic, and that's respectable.
Of all places for him to be jeered at like some kind of lunatic. Talk about shouting a good man down. Extremely sad.
Ironically, a more Constitutional government would diminish the ridiculous amount of democratic power the masses have - the power they're using to wreck the country.
I support the Iraq war, but I respect Ron Paul and his position because I know he's basing his disagreement on Constitutional principals.
He's not out there to win the presidency, he's out there to educate and expose people to constitutional principles. Something everybody here should respect.
