Rand Paul: Iran Wants Nukes Because It “Feels Threatened”
David Horowitz's NewsRealblog ^ | Calvin Freiburger

Posted on 02/16/2010 2:05:11 PM PST by Michael van der Galien

It turns out that crackpot Ron Paul’s son Rand can understand why poor, innocent Iran might want nuclear weapons—they feel “threatened” by big, bad America (hat tip to Rand Paul: Too Kooky for Kentucky for the video):

Watch it at NRB - sorry, can't embed videos here at FR.

Palin is obligated to McCain, but the Rand Paul endorsement was just ridiculous.

At least she tempered it by saying she only agrees with him on economic issues.

Which at this time are non-trivial.

If Paul wins the primary, with Palin’s help, it hurts the national conservative movement.

Best of luck to Sarah in her future endeavors, but high office will not be one of them.

What's there to address? What, Rand was speaking on “behalf” of his father, therefor, it's not what Rand believes? Something like that?

Yes, pretending that this thread is a Rand Paul quote is nonsense, I don't know how he feels on the question, but to pretend that as a spokesmen for a presidential candidate in 2007 when he was saying HE thinks, HE believes to the audience is not relevant to anything.

Hmmm...isn’t that what you think of Paulbots? Tell me:
- where does the Constitution justify attacking a sovereign nation that hasn’t attacked us?
- please tell me which president really started this policy of foreign military intervention (hint WW) and explain how he was “conservative”.
- explain why it is smarter to do as the dems do with social b.s. programs but in regards to foreign affairs. That is, twist the words to fit your favored policy.

Right on observation. As soon as they say things like “Palin is not presidential material” I know immediately I’m dealing with an effete snob libertarian.

And Robert Gibbs is a Reagan Conservative. When a candidate says he has the same "principles" as his father, I take him at his word. Case Closed.

The Iranian power structure is made up of sociopathic thugs.

You can believe what you want but this thread is not about a Rand Paul quote.

You are so correct. Aiding and hiding members of AL Qaeda after 9/11 and fuding and arming the Shi'ites killing Americans in Iraq don't count. Those comments about destroying the Great Satan mean nothing.

- please tell me which president really started this policy of foreign military intervention (hint WW) and explain how he was “conservative”.
What do you have against Jefferson?

- explain why it is smarter to do as the dems do with social b.s. programs but in regards to foreign affairs. That is, twist the words to fit your favored policy.
Pot calling kettle black.
