It should be enough to remove him from all consideration as a candidate for the presidency. Here is what Paul said about 9/11. They attack us because we’ve been over there. We’ve been bombing Iraq for 10 years… Right now, we’re building an embassy in Iraq that is bigger than the Vatican. We’re building 14 permanent bases. What would we say here if China was doing this in our country or in the Gulf of Mexico? We would be objecting. They are delighted that we’re over there because — Osama bin Laden has said ‘I’m glad you’re over on our sand because we can target you so much easier.’ They have already now, since that time they’ve killed 3,400 of our men and I don’t think it was necessary. Never mind Paul’s argument from ‘moral equivalence’ that likens American base building to Chinese base building—both nations act exactly the same upon the world stage, don’t you know? Never mind his using a quote from bin-Laden to bolster his case. The man has no idea of the issues involved in the Middle East, is entirely ignorant of its history and should never be trusted with the responsibilities of commander-in-chief. Paul’s response concerning 9/11 is suited to Michael Moore, not to any rational being. He blames his own nation for 9/11. This is the kook argument, castigating the US for all the evils of the world. A very quick history lesson is in order. As Doctor Johnson said, we need to be reminded more than instructed. Islam is an imperialist religion. It makes no secret of this and indeed it boasts about this. The Islamic lands around the Mediterranean were once Christian and were taken by Islam in a series of unprovoked wars from AD 630-732. All except the tiny redoubt of Israel remain Islamic still. The United States had her first contact with Islam in a wars with the Barbary Pirates (1801-05, 1815). Islam attacked our ships, took hostages, demanded tribute and beheaded prisoners. Sound familiar? In other words, before Iraq, before US support of Israel, before any US involvement in the Middle East, Islam was attacking us. It attacks us still. All of this is basic 8th grade US History. Did Paul not pass that year? Ron Paul would be a Republican president, yet he does not know the basic facts about why his own nation fights. He should not be allowed anywhere near the White House. (Captain Ed comments on Ron Paul.) But the Buffoon Of The Year award goes to Ron Paul. His contention that America deserved the 9/11 attack should end his political career. Hopefully it will convince the next forum to exclude him from the proceedings. Paul made everyone else look tolerable, and had most of us yearning for a vaudeville hook.
Poster Comment: There is a new kid in town at elpee. His style and interests strangely mirror that of our resident disruptor BeAChooser. He just signed up and this would make sense seeing how little wiggle room and how unpleasent it has gotten here for BAC. Take a look at the short searh of 'pinfish' and judge for yourself. http://libertypost.org/cgi-bin/latestcomments.cgi?SNSearch=1&Fm=pinfish&To=&LPNum=2&

Well, the posting of opinion and strained interpretation as "fact" certainly looks familiar. The contention that a few pirates represent all of Islam is a good example. Paul is the only declared GOP candidate that seems to understand world history and foreign relations. Calling him a kook is a dead giveaway that the poster is a kook. The style is very, very familiar.
Indeed. I agree. There are other style ans word usage simularities. So much so I think BAC protesteth a wee bit too much about the central notion of this thread. Namely, just who pinfish is.
