A former Ron Paul staffer named Eric Dondero, who worked closely with the Texas congressman and presidential candidate over the course of 15 years, has issued a statement in which he both defends his old boss from charges of racism and anti-Semitism and reveals damning new details about about the "sheer lunacy of [Paul's] foreign policy views". First, Dondero claims that his old boss is such an extreme isolationist that "he strenuously does not believe the United States had any business getting involved in fighting Hitler in WWII. He expressed to me countless times, that 'saving the Jews,' was absolutely none of our business." Second, Dondero writes that that Paul himself is a 9/11 conspiracy theorist: And lastly, Dondero reveals that Paul wanted to vote against the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 but lacked the courage of his convictions to do so: Ron Paul was opposed to the War in Afghanistan, and to any military reaction to the attacks of 9/11.He engaged in conspiracy theories including perhaps the attacks were coordinated with the CIA, and that the Bush administration might have known about the attacks ahead of time. He expressed no sympathies whatsoever for those who died on 9/11, and pretty much forbade us staffers from engaging in any sort of memorial expressions, or openly asserting pro-military statements in support of the Bush administration.
There is much more information I could give you on the sheer lunacy of his foreign policy views. Let me just concentrate on one in specific. And I will state this with absolute certainty:

The official story reegarding what, exactly? Be specific when you ask a question.
I'll believe that a corporation is a person 1 second after Texas executes one...
9-11...that's pretty specific
Bull. Different aspects were examined by different groups.
I'll believe that a corporation is a person 1 second after Texas executes one...
I didn't realize the government had issued a number of different versions/statements concerning what happedned that day...thanks for playing...
Another refuge who has problems with the subtleties of plain English. NIST 9/11 Commission Are they the same source?

Happy Quanzaa: If they weren't they wouldn't be Troofers. You believe everything the government tells you? Who killed JFK? You think it was Oswald, despite every shred of evidence indicating that not only did he not do it, but he was acting as a low-level operative for the CIA...? You believe the "magic bullet" theory? Do you accept the Warren Commission report? Do you believe the "Gulf of Tonkin" incident occured? If you answered "no" to any of the above question, then it is not so difficult to understand why people might be unwilling to blindly accept the "official" explanation of 9/11. Ron Paul has never he believes the more outlandish theories (remote- controlled airplanes, a Jewish conspiracy, et.al.), but he has stated that many questions remain unanswered, and there should be further investigation. Such a position is not in the realm of "Conspiracy Theory," but a well-thought out position. [One need only look at the testimony of Sibel Edmonds, to start wondering whether all the facts were revealed.]
“Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, and then say 'what should be the reward of such sacrifices?' Bid us and our posterity bow the knee, supplicate the friendship and plough, and sow, and reap, to glut the avarice of the men who have let loose on us the dogs of war to riot in our blood and hunt us from the face of the earth? If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!” -- Samuel Adams --

Despite your gibberish, I can't think of another candidate who's nomination would guarentee Obama's re-election more easily than Ron Paul.
the FACT remains...without the "Paul" votes, the RNC candidate CAN NOT win. Those are the FACTS! Lets just play your game though...lets say Romney, Santorum, Perry wins the presidency 1) is the TSA going to be dismantled 2) the IRS going to be phased out 3) the Federal Reserve phased out 4) unconstitutional agencies abolished 5) these fake wars ended 6) NDAA repealed 7) Patriot Act repealed 8) 1 Trillion in spending cut the first year 9) Obamacare repealed See...it doesn't really matter if Obama or _______________ wins, NOTHING will change, NOTHING! ALL the players are owned, lock, stock and barrel by those wanting world government...except Paul. You want limited, Constitutional government, Paul is the ONLY one advocating that, you want world government, loss of freedom, crushing debt, endless wars, unaccountable government...vote ANYONE else...they're ALL the same. And I disagree completely with you're premise about Obama being a shoe-in if he is head to head against Paul...I know a LOT of former Democrats that are waking up to the two party fraud also, they're VERY disgusted with Obama and like the freedom and liberty message Paul brings to the table. The fact you don't see the fraud doesn't mean MILLIONS of others don't...educate yourself.
EXACTLY.

1) is the TSA going to be dismanteled 2) the IRS going to be phased out 3) the Federal Reserve phased out yada, yada, yada... Paul would be a dictator then.
Economics is a social phenomenon and in no way a “science”, no matter how desperately its high priests would like to have it believed otherwise. It is, instead, a branch of anthropology and the sooner that is recognized and accepted, the better off human-kind in general and the world of academic economics, in particular, shall be proximity1 We probably will see widespread civil disorder in the 1980s, as a direct result of our faltering economic system. Ron Paul
...no, Paul would simply be performing his OATH, something the others lied about, enforcing and protecting the Constitution...that means abolishing those agencies that aren't Constitutional. Don't they ALL swear to do this??
Does the Constitution say that the President can eliminate what Congress has created - like the Department of Education?

Ron Paul
I'd like to see some evidence to support that absurd notion.
I find it ironic that he can declare an agency "unconstitutional" without understanding that the USCON explicitly grants Congress the power to create departments of the federal government and puts very little prohibition on what those departments might oversee.
I'll believe that a corporation is a person 1 second after Texas executes one...
If you believe the RNC "chosen" candidate can win when Paul just came in 3rd place in Iowa, you just keep on fantasying. How is YOUR choice going to be ANY different than the Kenyan in office...I'm VERY curious!
if congress has overstepped it's authority in creating these agencies then it should be reigned in, and those departments disbanded. Is the dept of education one of the enumerated powers granted the federal government in the Constitution...no!...it is an issue that belongs with the states.
...so, under that pretext, the TSA, Homeland Security, the dept overseeing Obamacare, the NDAA, the Patriot act etc...are ALL Constitutional...In essence Congress could create a dept called the 3rd Reich and it would be Constitutional...I don't think so. Most of these issues belong with the states NOT the federal government...whose powers are limited and very well enumerated.
Actually RP has quite a Democrat following especially among those disappointed in Obama's continued war mongering. And they are registering as Pubbies in order to vote for him in the primaries. Which is why your words don't match your actions.
"ROTFLMAO... Perfect! She longs... for someone to Teabag her. a man that squats on top of a women's face and lowers his genitals into her mouth during sex, known as "teabagging" She aches for it"... ~~~JWpegler. Head Tea Bagger and Tea Party supporter extraordinaire, explicitly expressing his fantasies in public about other posters.
The Congress can create a department. What that department may do is then contingent upon the powers conferred to it as being congruent to the USCON. There could be a Department the Third Riech of the Congress so desired. That department may not create or enforce a relgiion, restrict speech or publishing, adminster cruel or unusual punishment, take without compensation etc etc etc. There is only ONE federal department explictly created in the USCON. My money says that you don't even know what it is.
I'll believe that a corporation is a person 1 second after Texas executes one...
A Berfer and a Truther?!? Tell me you believe in the Clinton Death List too...oh please please tell me it is so...
I'll believe that a corporation is a person 1 second after Texas executes one...
Without some research I'd venture to say Treasury...
Post office.
I'll believe that a corporation is a person 1 second after Texas executes one...
...not really. It doesn't matter where he was born, he could have been born on the white house steps. To qualify for president, BOTH parents MUST be citizens of the US...by obama's own admission, his father was a British subject, making him ineligible to hold office.
I should have known that...THANKS War! I hate brain cramps. And on a side note...we may disagree on issues but I appreciate your courtesy and civility.
It is well established US law that parentage has nothing to do with citizenship in the US ecept in the very narrowly defined case of the children of foreign ambassadors and attaches. US citizenship is based jus soli not jus sanguinis. It is also well established law that there are only two classes of citizens...natural born and naturalized. He's natural born and he's POTUS.
I'll believe that a corporation is a person 1 second after Texas executes one...
No worries x2. Happy New Year//

You continue to make the mistake of thinking you think.

So...you keep *thinking* that you're not an asshole...even though everyone BELIEVES that you are...

Its not that hard to skew the results when the number of college students in a state out number the number of caucus goers. There are easily thirty thousand students at the University of Iowa alone. Thats why Ron Paul doesn't even compete in states with a population over a million.
Is 'quite the following' a quantifiable number or just something you made up out of thin air?
right on the money.
I'm just curious TB...which part of the Constitution do you hate so much you want it ignored...or is it you just hate the whole thing? I'm curious?
No you're just...stupid.
Pathetic dodge...don't think it went unnoticed. Classic...avoid the question at ALL costs and then call childish names. How old ARE you?
...so you believe the governments "official" story?
