CALLER: I want a complete, impartial, and totally independent investigation of the events of September 11, 2001 . I’m tired of this bogus garbage about terrorism. Ask Michael Meacher about how he feels about this bogus war on terrorism. Can you comment on that please?
HON. DR. RON PAUL: Well, that would be nice to have. Unfortunately, we don’t have that in place. IT WILL BE A LITTLE BIT BETTER NOW WITH THE DEMOCRATS NOW IN CHARGE OF OVERSIGHT. But you know, for top level policy there’s not a whole lot of difference between the two policies so a real investigation isn’t going to happen. But I think we have to keep pushing for it. And like you and others, we see the investigations that have been done so far as more or less cover-up and no real explanation of what went on.

OK, fair enough. So he wasn’t at a Truther-sponsored event. Clearly the truther, and he isn’t the only one if you look at the Houston 9/11 Truther website, feels he is validated by Paul. Now are you telling me this truther changed the audio to mislead as to what Paul was saying in the interview?
Which just so happens to be THE ENTIRE REASON OF MY POSTING ON THIS THREAD - HER TRUTHERISM.
OMG — would you PLEASE look at the bottom of her blog — the UPDATE section where she links to another blogger’s mp3 recording of Dr. Ron stating this nonsense on a truther’s radio show, in response to a truther’s question?
I am freakin dizzy from the spinning.
So, how do you read it now? Just so dirtboy can't spin that to his advantage like he is trying to do in post #476.

Try this personal attack:
You, on the other hand, I suspect will never once admit you’re wrong. Ever. About anything.
Rather two-faced of you.
I've wasted enough time with y'all on this thread. Maeve made it impossible for you to deny what I was saying all along. My work here is done.
Come on dirtboy, it is from the Ron Paul playbook. Make statement, then deny it or vice versa.
State you are against pork, then ask for it..
State you want to abolish the DOE, then vote for government regulations on school lunches.......
See how it works? If you close you eyes it is like John Kerry all over again. Flip meets flop.
You really do have trouble reading, don’t you?
What NAME did I call you? Come on, define it for me.
So dizzy you had to post that three times?
He only thinks he’s spinning it to his advantage. He knows he has no logic or reason to impart to this discussion, so he’s started out calling names and hasn’t let up yet.
I swear, the Ron Paul threads are like play time at the kindergarten downstairs. (And the Paulnuts aren’t the kids.)
It appears that is the case and worse. Heck, you can't even use their own quotes against them. They just change the meaning of the words to be what they want them to be, nothing more, nothing less.
OK, Joooooooos are Semites, too, and since so many conspiracy theorists blame them it was a logical assumption. Instead of being coy, why don’t you tell us what you think happened. Do you think there was another Islamic government involved? Do you think government agencies allowed this to happen intentionally? What, specifically, do you find “unbelievable”?
Read this:
In reading 51, I don’t see anywhere where it gives the President plenipotentiary powers. It states that the other branches of government will coordinate their Continuance of Operation plans with the Executive branch, but I read it to only insofar as to make sure that those branches also have adequate COOP procedures in place.
Quote:
To sum it up for everyone, it pretty much says that it gives the President powers over the three other parties. In the case of a disaster (hurricane, earthquake, bombing, cheney shooting some one) Bush can now appoint himself as the ruler(dictator) of the U.S.
It does NOT say that anywhere in the document you linked, despite what the twisted minds online are saying. What it says, and this is what is taken out of context on conspiracy web sites, is:
Quote:
(6) The President shall lead the activities of the Federal Government for ensuring constitutional government.
The following is the remainder of that paragraph:
Quote:
In order to advise and assist the President in that function, the Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism (APHS/CT) is hereby designated as the National Continuity Coordinator. The National Continuity Coordinator, in coordination with the Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs (APNSA), without exercising directive authority, shall coordinate the development and implementation of continuity policy for executive departments and agencies. The Continuity Policy Coordination Committee (CPCC), chaired by a Senior Director from the Homeland Security Council staff, designated by the National Continuity Coordinator, shall be the main day-to-day forum for such policy coordination.
This applies ONLY to the Executive Branch. Later (and this is what is conspicuously absent on the conspiracy sites), it says:
Quote:
(9) Recognizing that each branch of the Federal Government is responsible for its own continuity programs, an official designated by the Chief of Staff to the President shall ensure that the executive branch’s COOP and COG policies in support of ECG efforts are appropriately coordinated with those of the legislative and judicial branches in order to ensure interoperability and allocate national assets efficiently to maintain a functioning Federal Government.
COOP = Continuity of Operations
COG= Continuity of Government
ECG = Enduring Constitutional Government

Which of you complained and got Maeve suspended?
I posted once pal. Computer glitch. Please talk about that for 15 posts though instead of the opening post, which is what this thread is about.
‘They just change the meaning of the words to be what they want them to be, nothing more, nothing less.’
Yep. Then again, if you were a Paulie Girl, you’d soon realize thats the ONLY WAY to spin what this clown offers up in debates....(chuckle)
Why was Maeve suspended?
Hey not me. You forget God was watching her.
[rolling eyes]
I don’t think God’s a mod here.
