Anyone who watched the Fox News-sponsored presidential debate Sunday night surely took notice of the booing that ensued during Ron Paul's discussion of America's policy of interventionism and meddling in the affairs of other nations. Certainly nobody likes to be booed, but are those boos indicative of a candidate who represents a positive future for America?
Paul correctly noted that America's foreign policy is outrageously expensive, and without huge funding funneled towards an already-bureaucratic military, we simply will not be able to afford our current course of action around the world.
Paul also opined, much to the disgust of the Republican audience, that America cannot so much as defend our own cities, but yet we are prancing around the world. Add to that the fact that the United States appears clearly unable or unwilling to protect our own borders, but yet we feel it necessary to defend the borders of other nations.

In a word, NO.
Ron Paul’s boos are boos. No need to spin it. The guy is a freak.
What is this, someone’s idea of a trick question?
The answer is NO.
When ElRon’s mouth opens, it’s to pass brain-farts. That makes reasonable people boo in disgust.
In a word yes.
No. Republicans boo Paul because he is a RINO and sounds more like Dennis Kucinich than any real conservative.
Must agree with his fierce denfense of the Constitution, but he gave me palpitations when he told Hannity that he wouldn’t necessarily support wichever Republican gets the nomination.
Yeah turn logic on its head. We are that stupid.
Paul: The Founders advised against interventionism Unless, you know, it involved Indian tribes, British forts in the old Northwest, North African pirates, Royal Navy incursions, etc. The man, again, sounds nuts, and he got thoroughly booed.
The best thing about Ron Paul is that the democrats who are supporting him (former Deaniacs?)have swelled his head so big that his ego will tell him to run for president on the Libertarian line in the General and he will be a spoiler for Hillary the way nader was for Gore.
Americans still boo traitors
Americans still boo traitors
They’re not booing, they’re saying “Mooooooo-vers!”
Ron Paul is such an idiot he even makes Dennis Kucinich look almost normal.
Why don’t you go spam somewhere else from the DNC HQ?? Your a joke!
Pray for W and Our Troops
Clearly the audience of those attending the Fox debate in person was biased against Ron Paul. But how does it happen that the establishment paper, USA Today said a couple of days ago that Paul is now a first tier candidate? And how come the AP story of the Values debate omitted to name who came in third (of course the AP is part of the thought control apparatus), while the Reuters story of the same debate mentioned that Ron Paul was third with 15 percent, ahead of almost all the others?>
The fact is that Paul was the only one who discussed the basic fact of inflation of our currency by the Federal Reserve, which steals from us all, and other extremely important basic facts confronting our nation.>
I wish many of today’s Freepers had attended the 1993 (hope this was correct year) Freeper Washington Monument rally for impeachment of Bill Clinton, as I did, for giving China our military secrets, BEFORE Lewinsky affair, and would ask how come George W. Bush never prosecuted Clinton for all his treason!
