according to his interview this morning on FOX news, Christians and Patriots cause Fascism
LOL. I realize reading may beyond some but he was quoting Sinclair Lewis. It was a general statement but history has proven that also to be the case before.

So you agree with the premise that 'Christians and Patriots cause Fascism'?

A transcript will be out, they're excited about it at some of his sites.

Christians suck, you know that, so do patriots.

Go Ron Go!

Naah, it's not a cult.

I'll take the liberty of posting a Lew Rockwell link to the comment, despite the site being banned. LR isn't a hate site and sometimes sites banned on FR are the only places you can find out what Ron said. Not an easy one to spin, but the paulies will be up to it.

Ron Paul quotes Sinclair Lewis on Faux News

No but I believe there are those that would call themselves Christian and nationalists using the drapery of patriotism that can bring a form of fascism to this nation. Too many are willing to hand over freedom already because that's what's needed to ensure our 'safety' and because party leadership suggested that would be the 'right' course of action. It is one thing to be a Christian and a patriot. It is an entirely different matter to be a 'Christian' and a 'patriot'. Neither Lewis nor Dr. Paul were insinuating otherwise. But you knew that already didn't you...
