You know, you were a favorite of mine when you were posting those translations of captured Iraqi documents. But on these Ron Paul threads, you just wade in with the insults and trollish behavior.
Step back, take a deep breath, and really thhink about what Dr. Paul said. He wasn't blaiming us or making excuses for Al Queda. He isn't advocating running away from a fight or any kind of "head in the sand" barricade mentality.
He's neither a traitor nor a lunacic, but possibly that lasast real Constitutionalist in Congress.

No, I am afraid that is exactly what he was saying. And don't forget that when an American traitor -- er, politician -- says such things inside the USA, it is trumpted across the Middle East as evidence that the USA is wrong, and Muslim murderers and terrorists are correct. DO YOU HONESTLY THINK THAT ANY ISLAMIC PROPAGANDIST WILL PASS UP SUCH AN OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW THAT THE USA IS EVIL? At the very least, Ron Paul should be disqualified as President because he is naive and foolish in saying things that our enemies will use. Those statements will be used to recruit terrorists and combatants to kill Americans and American soldiers. Ron Paul's comments will directly lead to the death of Americans, by energizing and motivating and recruiting Islamic fighters.
As to Ron Paul being a Constitutionalist, I am afraid he is not. Ron Paul is an anti-Constitutionalist. Ron Paul does not accept the power that the Constitution entrusts to the Congress. Ron Paul's position was argued at the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia and REJECTED by the Constitutional Convention. Ron Paul is an advocate of the Articles of Confederation that the Constitution replaced.
Paul is simply flat wrong on what the Constitution says. Paul's reading of the Constitution is nothing short of bizarre. Now, the Congress does not read the Constitution correctly, either. But the solution to one bizarre theory is not an equally bizarre and unpersuasive theory that no one will take seriously.
