Former Ron Paul Campaign Coordinator Declares Against Him Ouch! Two butt stompin's in less than 24 hours. Say goodbye, Ron!
Asking a candidate to step down because someone things that they look too old or too frail makes for a bad arguement. Take issue with the candidate's platform and topics and don't resort to ad hominem attacks. What's next, will someone tell a candidate to step down because they don't like their gender or how much hair they have?
I think that boot is firmly on the other foot. The republicans supporting torture, the crowd cheering. Frightening. If any of those men are elected, your police sate will be ready for prime time. But it doesn't matter because Hillary will be president and get it done her own way.
Even worse is when someone attempts to suggest those are the only reasons, in light of what happened, is dishonest. Just because you don't care about your country or fellow countrymen and would rather see 200,000 of them killed instead of ruffing up one of your buds with "enhanced interrogation techniques" doesn't mean everyone agrees. Remember, not everyone supports terrorists with tender loving care.
So you admit a tender side for your terrorist buds, again? Good for you! Don't be shy, when you know you support them, just spit it right out. You're not the only one here that does, so you have a good support system. Congrats for coming out of the closet!
ok.... so you don't support human rights. Well the rest of us will fight for human rights, like the most important one - the right to live.
As soon as Muslim terrorists stop murdering people of every race and religion who isn't their brand of Islam, I'll buy into the foreign policy argument.
torture is against the geneva conventions...but when radical islamic militants don't fall under those guidelines, the geneve conventions don't apply....why don't we make you happy and just let them all go, I'm sure they will go peacefully.
For starters about 25% of the Fox News viewers: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,272493,00.html With more than 40,000 votes submitted via text message, 29 percent said former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney made the best showing of all 10 GOP presidential hopefuls who made their cases to the American people at the University of South Carolina's Koger Center for the Arts in Columbia, S.C. Texas Rep. Ron Paul, who ignited controversy at the debate with remarks that U.S. policy had invited the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, came in second with 25 percent. Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who strongly admonished Paul for his comments, came in third place with 19 percent. Arizona Sen. John McCain, who is the frontrunner in South Carolina polls, came in sixth with 5 percent. Paul is 4% away from the first place winner. Sounds like a lot of people liked what he had to say.
What are you talking about?? At what point have I defended torture? Oh, nevermind you won't find where I did, because I never have.
Why be coy? Everyone reading this can see you responded to my post number five. I hope you guys keep assuming everyone else is really stupid.
Stompings? The FOX News phone in poll showed Ron Paul far ahead of Giuliani. And this Aid? His opinion is meaningless and will be forgotten in a few days. His opinion holds as much weight as yours, or anyone elses, and it does nothing to discredit the argument Ron Paul made. Ron Paul brought a logical argument to the debate and Giuliani pandered to the crowd with a baseless response. The 9/11 commission, which has unanimously been found to be accurate, is what Ron Paul was talking about when he said that US involvement in the Mid East is what ultimately motivates retaliation attacks. Giuliani didn't respond to his argument intelligently, or discredit anything he said, all he basically said was, "I don't believe it, and you're wrong". What kind of response is that? His response didn't even show that he understood the argument.
No he did not. He invoked the beaten wife defense. And compounded it with some very bad knowledge of American history. Not to mention Islamic history.
I think FoxNews should accuratize poll results. It's not acceptable to allow Average Joe decide on poll results, considering that TV watchers are not experts. This poll shows that if we leave the decision in hands of unqualified voters, the results can be disastrous for our well-being, security, and our children's future
