Ron Paul

Once-Peaceful Canada Turns Militaristic; Blowback Follows

(20)

You're entitled to your opinion, even when it is wrong and based on things you can't and do not understand.

You can rant at DC all you want; I am neither a spokesman nor a defender of the beltway. If you'd try listening instead of hurling insults, you might have been able to come to the conclusion a long time ago.

I let up on you now, since clearly you're not handling disagreement very wel...

Ron Paul

Once-Peaceful Canada Turns Militaristic; Blowback Follows

(20)

You still can't prove that the WMD found (some of which was reported to Congress in 2004 in an open hearing) as reported from by abundant sources in the open press were not violations of UNSCR 687, can you? Of course not. Remember, I'm not someone who 'knows somebody who said,' as you volunteer to being yourself--I was there. Once again, all you can quote is what you hear; I can attest to what I saw.

Also, if you'd go back to the beginning, I NEVER said what was found justified the invasion of Iraq. All I EVER said was that we found WMD in Iraq, and that it was a lie to say we had not. I've even pointed out repeatedly that we did NOT find the new labs, new weapons production, and a thriving nuclear program that the world intelligence agencies (including ours) thought we'd find.

You're so far behind the curve that it is hardly worth responding to. Read some recent news for goodness sake. The burden remains on you to prove that:

1) The weapons found by Staff Sgt Eric J Duling in August 2008 near Taji, Iraq, were maintained and/or scheduled for destruction in accordance with UNSC 687 and subsequent resolutions;
2) The sarin from a shell near Baghdad’s Yarmouk neighborhood ...

As usual, you're just ranting. I have extensive direct foreign policy experience, but you wouldn't know that because you don't know me whatsoever. I've also been 'boots on the ground' in a wide variety of places where, had it not been for the United States, genocide would have continued unabated. I'll put my foreign policy credentials and experience up against Ron Paul's any day of the week.

If you'd been following along from the beginning you would have seen that I've been the one getting personally attacked from the start. None of these people know me, but have called me a 'poser', a 'liar', and on and on.

Well, the mistake is that your comment is directed at me and not Hart since certainly his comments are the most 'trollish' of all. However, I think troll is applied in general to those with whom one segment disagrees and is thus a meaningless critique.

As for Ron Paul, I've commented many times here before that I agree with much of his domestic policy, but that his and the Libertarian foreign policy v...

You've not been following what I've been saying over the years, which is clearly evident by your attacks and comment that I'm "pushing DC lies." I do not agree with Ron Paul or the Libertarians when it comes to foreign policy. I think both widely miss the mark.

Thanks Josu O. I appreciate your comments and defense. I have found that most of the people here, such as Hart and his supporters, do not appreciate being challenged and certainly do not like even the slightest criticism of Ron Paul. In early comments, I have supported much of what Ron Paul has said on domestic policy, which the writers here ignore. I do not embrace Ron Paul nor the Libertarians view on fore...

It is clear from your very first sentence that you are insulting, attacking, and being far from civil as is required by the comments policy. Clearly 24hrGold agreed with me.

Secondly, you remember in error. All I ever said on WMD was that I was there and I saw it--not that I know someone who knows someone who knows someone. So you're wrong there also.

Thirdly, you're the one that said the...

More Guns Plus Less War Equals Real Security

Ron Paul is indeed correct with respect to gun control. "Gun control" is merely a euphemism for "confiscation." That's why it is so vigorously resisted.

Actually, you ARE wrong because I say you're wrong. Why? Because I have first-hand experience on the ground in Iraq, and you apparently have NONE.

You're just wrong, and you should simply admit it and move on, instead of deluding yourself. As I stated long ago and is documented as fact if you care to do the research; we found WMD in Iraq--just not Saddam's VX. That is the ONLY point I've been telling you from the beginning, and it is correct. You might not like it, but you can't erase that fact by imagining that support from others on this form will ma...

You can disagree with a person's point of view--even call it "hooey" if you choose, but personal attacks on some one you don't even know, as well as unsubstantiated claims that the person is a 'liar,' are not "commentary"--they're abuse. You may not agree with Jim C or my point of view, but the truly childish act is to personally attack some one you don't even know.

I could not tell you my source since you wouldn't believe it, but I was there--so I had first-hand information that was classified. It remained classified because the insurgents had captured some of this stuff but didn't know they had it, and they were using it to make IEDs the same way they used regular artillery rounds. We didn't want them to know they had WMD.
