Comments on: Ron Paul Redux http://ccannizzaro.com/2007/ron-paul-redux/ "To explain the unknown by the known is a logical procedure; to explain the known by the unknown is a form of theological lunacy."

It's clear that Ron Paul is the only one who can hold this country true to its founding values, and bring us back to the liberty and prosperity that we all desire. Ron Paul 2008!

And thanks to alec for the great link! And Paul, I think that's a point that very few voters (especially the so-called "values voters") are consciously aware of, as illustrated during the town hall debate between Bush and Kerry in 2004.

But how's this for a soundbyte? Ron Paul's Comment: <blockquote>Experts, scholars, administration officials and bi-partisan investigators all tell us that 50 years of interventionism in the Middle East has compromised the security of America. To deny that bad policy has serious negative repercussions is to deny reality. During our debate in South Carolina, I continued to make the case that we must change foreign policy to secure our nation. Mr. Giuliani attacked me, calling my position ‘absurd,’ and said that he had ‘never heard’ such a thing. Mr. Giuliani is not really interested in discussing foreign policy. Instead, he wants to shout down anyone who doesn’t agree with him. He attacks my patriotism, inferring that if I do not support war, then I do not love America. We have heard these arguments before. They are arguments of ignorance and authoritarianism. Today, I stood with Michael Scheuer, the man who spearheaded the CIA’s efforts to capture Osama Bin Laden, and perhaps the most qualified expert to speak about the blowback caused by American foreign policy. I cited leading scholars, the 9-11 Commission, the CIA and even Paul Wolfowitz. Rudy Giuliani’s ignorance on foreign policy is alarming. I hope he pays attention and learns.</blockquote> Well, maybe it's not exactly a soundbyte. No problem, JD. But how’s this for a soundbyte?
