Ron Paul: Things Will Be Better Now the Democrats Are In Charge
You know, I was pleased when Ron Paul joined the Republican Party, and welcomed his idea of pushing libertarian ideas into the Republican mainstream. But... he’s showing his kooky side right now.
Dr. Ron Paul, Texas Congressman exploring a run for President, appeared on The Alex Jones Show Wednesday [MP3 link] and had the following to say about 9/11:
“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.
JACK BLOOD, GUEST HOST: I think it’s fair to say that of all the candidates out there, the one most interested in reopening the investigation and clearing the questions is Dr. Paul; and you should be commended for that.

Please explain why he made these comments. Oooh oooh I know, he wants to prove Al Qaeda did it.
I have asked about a dozen or so times for this comment to be explained and all I get is a bunch of he-denied-it nonsense.
Cracker jack campaign he has going on there.
The only rational explanation for those comments is that he expects the Dem's, as the opposition party, to do a better investigatory job on what is apparently an unresolved issue. What issues are unresolved have not been addressed, and should, by Paul, not his supporters.
Because he believes there was some CYA going on. Not of a conspiracy, but of incompetence and negligence. That POV is quite common. You see it all the time on FR.
Oooh oooh I know, he wants to prove Al Qaeda did it.
No need. Ron Paul, like everyone else already accepts that fact.
I have asked about a dozen or so times for this comment to be explained and all I get is a bunch of he-denied-it nonsense.
It's been explained over and over again. Don't blame me because you don't get it.
Have you contacted his campaign and asked them?
If so, what was their reply?
If not....
I'll bet that if you are sincere about wanting an answer, they will be pleased to provide one.
please be sure to let us know what you find out!
