Ron Paul
All of the chatter that has been created over the Ron Paul and Rudy Giuliani exchange at the Republican debate further shows how out of touch the party is, especially on the topics of terrorism and Iraq. Basically Ron Paul was saying that one of the main reasons 9-11 happened is that our bad foreign policy decisions in the Middle East over the past 50 years has consequences and has made people angry. This sent Mr. 9-11 in to some kind of fit about how dare Ron Paul say that America could be the cause or reason for being attacked and told him he should take that back. Ron Paul not only did not take back but pointed to the fact is all you have to do is look at the quotes of Osama Bin Laden and they said that they did like what we did to Iraq for 10 years, having troops in Saudi Arabia, and numerous other other blunders the west has made over there. The media for the most part sided with Rudy on this saying that this was his shining moment and saying Ron Paul said that 9-11 was America's fault and that we brought this on ourselves. It is like all they heard was blah blah 9-11 our fault blah blah blah. All this nonsense plays into Republican talking point of they hate us for our freedom, and that because America always means well and our intentions are good and because of that we can do no wrong. To attack America or American ideals is to attack freedom and liberty itself. It's just amazing Ron Paul is far from liberal, but because he dared question our foreign policy he is some left wing tin foil hat wearing moonbat. The Republicans need to ease up on that testosterone and red meat diet, maybe try decaf.
