RON PAUL: Well, I havent thought about it completely, but you know, it reminds me of what Sinclair, uh, Lewis once said, he said when Fascism comes to this country, it will be wrapped in the flag, carrying a cross. I dont know whether thats a fair assessment or not, but you wonder about using a cross like he is the only Christian, or implying that subtly. So, uh, I dont think I would ever use anything like that.

He quotes a socialist, athiest, and alcoholic in denigration of the flag and the cross when asked about Huckabee’s Christmas message. Sheesh. Are you an employee that has to pretend you don’t see the problem or that it’s a bone-headed move politically?
As I said...
It would seem to me that it's only "politically stupid" if the majority of the audience is subject to fits of hypersensitivity and/or overreaction - it would be expected of them to categorize any remarks Ron Paul makes in that context. As evidenced.
Now we've gone from Ron Paul "attacking" religion and patriotism to accusing someone of being a clueless employee of his campaign.
I think I've proven my point here.
