I see.

So when the ad says, "Ron Paul salutes and supports our troops who protect and defend our freedom"--what does that mean?

Paul doesn't believe our troops our defending our freedom in Iraq. He doesn't believe our troops who died in Vietnam or Korea died for our freedom.

How can Paul claim that our troops defend our freedoms when he's on the record as saying so many troops have not?

The ad doesn't square with Paul's beliefs. It is supremely dishonest and a bit of disgraceful pandering.

It means exactly that.

I'm sorry that explanations over the Cold War or Vietnam couldn't fit into a 30-second ad.
