So – Are You Offended By This?
The Hayride ^ | 22 December 2011 | MacAoidh

I am. Anybody who supports Ron Paul after seeing this isn’t just not a Republican; they’re not a patriotic American. George McGovern would find this guy’s foreign policy borderline treason.

I'm not offended by the truth, and neither should you or anyone else. The truth is, "War is a racket." (2 time MOH winner Smedley Butler). You should ask yourself why we aren't talking about the financial crisis, the theft of trillions from the SS by our politicians, theft in the form of bail-outs to banks, theft in the form of foreign aid to known terrorist groups and governments?

Paul is not anti-American as you accuse him to be, and does not side with Al Qaeda or any other terrorist group. And no I am not a Paul supporter, the only two I might support are either Newt or Rick Perry, which feels like trying to pick up dog poop from the clean end.

Yes he is principled and if his principles are enacted you/ your children will become the servants of the next empire that rises in the wake of American retreat. You think Ron Paul’s happy thought world will keep the conquistadors at bay? So you choose, what nation state do you most hope takes the reigns as the global leader... please choose wisely.

Guess you did not get the memo, now that Ron Paul is leading in Iowa, the LSM says that these caucuses are meaningless.

Paul is right about one thing...........we’re headed to the poor house and at some point will no longer be capable of paying for our military kinetic actions.

What is critical to our national security is our fiscal security. None of the other candidates appear to be willing to make the hard fiscal decisions..............they all want to continue the Bread and Circuses it’s just a matter to what degree.

My fear is that Ron Paul will pull a Ross Perot and run as a third party candidate, thus handing Obama the election on a silver platter. And considering the two unappealing old RINO’s who we currently have as frontrunners, it wouldn’t be hard to do. Sarah, please get back into the race. Your country badly needs you.

Ron Paul is a veteran. He’s not attacking the military. What he is attacking is unconstitutional action on the part of President Obama.

So what? John "The Rat-Basturd, Traitor" Kerry was also a vet, but he single-handedly did more damage to the military (and our country) than any other Anti-Vietnam Leftist and that includes Jane Fonda, all the while pretending he was not anti-military.

As a Nam Vet I don't consider either Paul or Kerry, or anyone who attacks our Republic and Military, "Brothers;" they are back-stabbing, bottom-feeding, scumbags.

BS - this is ready-made propaganda against our military that the enemy is likely spreading around already. If RP is too dense to see this obvious truth, then he’s a dolt and shouldn’t be running for Commander in Chief.

There are plenty of ways to criticize BHO - comparing our troops to communist Chinese or Russians is despicable.

My God, people - the many hateful views of this man need to be shown to the electorate - far too many only think he’s just for the Constitutiom and against the Federal Reserve.

The MSM probably won’t do it and perhaps the only candidate with the guts to do it (if he’s aware of it) is Newt.

Not to defend Paul, but the fine print indicates this was not put out by the Paul campaign...though it is certainly something that could have been.

You are not allowed to say this: Ron Paul has legitimate points. As Pat Buchanan found out before him - no deviation from the (Dem) Party line!

I couldn’t watch it through to the end, but you really should watch at least some of it - you’ll be motivated to spread the word about this piece of trash (and his video as well).

What do you think Rush, Levin or Thomas Sowell would think of this? (That’s a rhetorical question, btw).

Ron Paul has opposed foreign wars forever and continues to. Democrats opposed foreign wars until Obama was president. Domestic energy production is the best way to defeat the terrorists — their weapons are bought with our money.

Interesting that on Red Eye right now, they’re talking about RP’s newsletters.

Ron Paul is a kook.

Imagine that the U.S. sponsored and harbored terrorist cells that killed thousands of Chinese civilians and his analogy might have an ounce of credibility.
