You lie. No other way to put it. And you lie even after you have been shown clearly that you are lying. Ron Paul did NOT “blame America for 9/11” and it is a stupid, vicious lie to claim that anything he said in the debates does so. I am getting fed up with single digit IQ dunderheads who are so bereft of the ability to simply parse out a plain english sentence that they turn a clear documented truth (actions do have consequences, and the middle east is no exception) into some mewling “it is all our fault” attempt to “blame America.” It is NOT what he said, and you people have heard tons of people, from Ron Paul supporters to the NRO (which is NOT a Paul supporter) explain to you in painstaking detail why it is not so. Yet you continue to prance around like some retard version of Archimedes,dripping wet and shrieking “EUREKA” as though you have just discovered an irrefutable axiom.
I once saw a brain damaged chimp in the zoo that behaved in the same manner, endlessly fascinated by the rubber band he stretched, captivated by the fact that it continually returned to its original shape. So it is with the “blame America first” paulietroll caterwaulers. No matter how many times or by how many people or how clearly it is explained to them they insist on howling at the moon like some deranged inbred cur and spitting out the slobber just long enough to intone “Ron Paul says 9/11 is our fault!”
I swear I don’t see how they can manage to remember their passwords to log in.
I will first say that I agree, Dr. Paul did not say “9/11 was America’s fault” so maybe that will grant me leave from the single IQ point dunderhead group.
However, he cited out policy which is what we have as a nation. Right or wrong that then put’s him in the “Blame America” bin, no matter how much he explains around it.
Above in post 123, JTN wants us to see through the Lebanese gentleman’s eyes the actions of the US. It is all in perception, so I guess I learned something from the post (something I already was well aware of) The general perception is that Ron Paul blames America, and since he did actually place the blame squarely on the shoulders of the policy and it is “we the people” he is indeed blaming us.
Maybe he has a point, maybe not, but perhaps the strategic thing may have been to keep it low given that he is running for the Republican nomination, not the Democratic one. Perhaps he should have waited until he had the bully pulpit of the White House to present his ideas in this particular case.
As it is, justified or not, he has lumped himself in the Moveon.org and such in the eyes of many. The average Republican sitting in a crowd watching Ron Paul is going to run like hell when they look to their side and see the green haired freaky kid with the “Stop the War/Impeach Bush/Paul 2008” sign, no matter how much sense Paul makes.
But what do I know, I am a single digit IQ dunderhead. Must go play with that magic rubber band now.
