Ron Paul on Michele Bachmann: ‘She Hates Muslims’
The Blaze ^ | December 17, 2011 | Madeleine Morgenstern

Posted on 12/17/2011 9:29:45 AM PST by risen_feenix

epublican presidential hopeful Ron Paul took some strong digs at his fellow candidates Friday, saying Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann “hates Muslims” and former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum doesn’t like “gay people and Muslims.”

Paul made his comments on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” when the host asked him for his take on the other GOP contenders in the field.

On Bachmann, the Texas congressman said: “She doesn’t like Muslims, she hates Muslims, she wants to go get them.”

“Wow, okay, that’s not good,” Leno said.

And Santorum?

“Gay people and Muslims,” Paul answered.

Hating Islam and Homo’s is a good thing.

“She doesn’t like Muslims, she hates Muslims, she wants to go get them.”

I don’t know about the rest of you guys, but I watched the video of Ron Paul on Leno and I have to say it reinforces what I said a week or so ago.

Whomever it is that Ron Paul brought on board to handle communications, appearances, speaking engagements, etc. - is one very effective dude or team.

1. His video ads have been EXTREMELY effective.
2. This Leno appearance was brilliant.

Go watch the clip...they’re on Youtube....

When they get to the point where Leno asks about the other candidates...

...it’s side remark comedy time.

Ron doesn’t smirk, yell, or go off on a tangent - he’s just leans in a bit with a slight smile and says, “She hates Muslims...”

...in vein similar to when people roll their eyes and say, “There goes Uncle Ron!”

Ron Pauls’ team prepped him to do it in this manner as a way of dishing it back in a way that is all too familiar - the targets know this.

Ron’s messages hasn’t changed. What has changed this time around - like it or not - is the person or team that handles him public communications wise.

If this person or team is getting paid, they are certainly earning every penny.

"Not only funny, but perfect!"

Yup, that the first thing I thought.

All that Constitutional stuff and a sense of humor too!

The old guy is surprisingly sharp-witted.

"..trying to make Islam an innocent victim of dhimmi hysteria. "

Any other headline, and most FReepers here would be taking the anti-muslim side.

Boggles the mind.

I not only criticise Islam, I denigrate, castigate, ridicule, point and laugh at, and defacate on Islam.

I will only use a Koran that is 2-ply.

And when I get my legally-obtained Constitutionally-protected firearm next month, I will use pictures of bomb-throwing child-raping camel-humping Muslims to sight my weapon in.

And I defy this little Libertarian rat-screw to stop my Constitutionally-protected free speech.

Ron Paul is a blithering idiot who only gets media coverage because the lame stream media wants to keep him in the forefront. There was a time in this country when someone like Paul would have been laughed into oblivion, and the only press coverage he would have received was from the ads which he paid for.

How can Ron Paul be so blind as not not see the many, many, many assaults on human lives, human dignity and human rights that are perpetrated every day by Muslims in dozens of countries. The information is out there if he really wanted to look.

Ron Paul is either senile or abysmally ignorant.

I challenge him to read the following book and come back and repeat inanities.

The history of islam (and muslims) is inseoerable and well documented. My personal experiences prompted me to begin a lifetime study of islam --- beginning in the early 60s.

For those with access to the first edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica, 1771, look up Mahometans (Vol 3.)

For a wider sweep of the history and atrocities of the sickest of cultures, read

Jihad in the West --- Muslim Conquests From the 7th to the 21st Centuries, by Paul Fregosi, 1998.

I doubt that even the most senile of politicians would repeat those inanities, considering that the vast majority of muslims today, given the opportunity, would display the same mindset and murderous demeanor.
As demonstrated worldwide daily.

Rep. Paul should be ashamed of himself for this leftist-sounding smear against a colleague.

Ron Paul is an ignorant man. I will be glad to see him fade away in the New Year.

Context is important, unless of course it doesn’t further your agenda.

Disliking Muslims is well on the way to becoming a Human Rights violation under UN treaty, soon as they figure a way to exempt the hatred of Christianity from the law.

I knew she had to have some redeeming qualities.

As for on Paul, he’s still cranky over that verbal beat-down she inflicted on him Thursday night. He’s nuts!

I may hate Google, but kudos to them for this one:

That solidifies it for me, Bachmann/Santorum in 2012.

What’s not to like about Muslims, —right?/

A few beheadings, suicide bombings, stonings for having unmarried sex, Honor killings, an apostasy law that says anyone who leaves Islam must die,a rule that every infidel must be enslaved or killed.Constant moaning and whining about being mistreated while mistreating everyone.

What’s not to like?.

And idiots and fools in the UN, Europe, South America and the United States who listen to them and are too ignorant to see their end game.

We are being hoisted on our own pitards.
Destroyed by our own laws of Religious Freedom.
While our Religions are being destroyed piecemeal by Homosexuals, ACLU,and Atheists.

It all must be some some sort of plan being run out of hell.

I had an MRI of the old brain recently. They said it showed mild vascular disease. I just hope I don’t end up like Ron Paul after a few more years.

I’d rather just quietly “loose my marbles”...

Ron Paul is either a flake, senile, or lack principles. Either way, he has joined the PC commissariat.

Paul first made his claim about Bachmann during the last debate, after Bachmann showed his ignorance in Iran.
