Ron Paul Would Open America’s Doors to Sharia

In Turkey last week, police wanted to check to see how gullible their citizens were. So they tested them by knocking on doors and screaming: “I’m a thief who has come to rob you. Now open your door.” The police were shocked to find that the vast majority of people actually opened their doors anyway. The police then warned the foolish people to be more cautious.

Ron Paul would have opened his door and invited the thief in. Paul wouldn’t have called the police, instead he’d invite the thief in to have a verbal battle over ideas. That’s basically what Ron Paul told Sean Hannity this Wednesday on Fox News. Except Paul said if he were President, and Sharia enforcers came knocking, he’d open the doors of America for a friendly debate over ideals. Opening your door to a thief is stupid and dangerous for one house. Opening America to Sharia is stupid and dangerous for an entire nation.

When Hannity asked Paul about the spread of Sharia in America, Paul initially downplayed the possibility but then said America is to blame if it happens. (Video here):

Hannity: Do you not agree there is a desire among Islamic extremists to have an Islamic Caliphate, Sharia Law and conquering the world? ‘Cause that’s their stated goal. I mean that’s what they say they want.

Paul: I think it would mean this many (hold up fingers to show small amount) but because we’re over there their numbers grow. You have radicals in all religions. And if there is some way to incite them, their numbers will grow. So their numbers have grown, but they use us to do that…

So Ron Paul says Sharia won’t spread but then blames America if it does.

Ron Paul is a NUT and those who support him are foolish to do so.

Libertarians are terminally stupid sociallly. Like liberals only worse. That is why they should never have power in the Republican party. One evil party is enough. Libertarians need to be sidelined in their own little nasty world.

Senseless fear mongering - based on something that will never happen.

I guess that is true because in all the time cut and run has been in Washington he has gotten NOTHING he supports accomplished, except earmarks, but then he SAYS he is against them.

Did you vote for the Compassionate Conservative who loved his Muslum friends?

Yes, but I would NEVER vote for an anti-American like cut and run who would spend all his time kissing their a$$es.

Then you’ve got a clear idea of just how bad our selection of leaders actually is, don’t you?
