2007 FL CNN/ YouTube Republican Debate (Part 5)

[friendsofjeremy]

McCain and Paul were both-I think-in their 30's during WW2, so they should both know, lol.

Seriously though, what McCain is trying to push on Paul is ridiculously false.

[RKAddict101]

Actually, Hitler came to power mainly because of the terrible treatment of the Versailles Treaty. Had the U.S. not entered in World War I and Wilson not have changed the original intent of the treaty, Germany would not have been in such a bad place that they would have resorted to letting such a terrible dictator take over.

[bigtap03]

Clearly wall street and the military industrial complex owns both the democrats and the republicans! Gravel Kucinich Bernie sanders and Ron Paul are the leaders we need to fix the problem, get corporations and lobbyists out of washington.

[Willredd94]

kucinich and sanders are socialists. But Ron Paul and Mike Gravel i will definitely accept.

[bb6f44]

Fuck that phony McCain. Ron Paul pwnz that douche.

[UnionKid15]

VOTE Mitt Romney in 2012!! Hope and change that we CAN believe in..!!

[NYJared04]

@UnionKid15

MITT ROMNEY??!!

Mitt Romney is just another big spending Repbulican and HE'S FOR OPEN BORDERS!!

[UnionKid15]

Umm, excuse me, but, he was my governor, as I do live in Massachusetts, and, I know what he is capable of, it truly is hope and change that we can believe in. God bless and take care.

-Josh..!!

[NYJared04]

@UnionKid15

Tom Tancredo and Ron Paul have the best records on taxes, spending, gun control, healthcare, and immigration. The rest don't even match with the exception of Duncan Hunter.

[UnionKid15]

I like Tom Tancredo but he is a bit too over the top for me. Duncan Hunter I like as well, though, his stance on immigration has to be the best of them all and dude, Ron Paul is a nut and a looney, so, sorry, haha. Have A Very Merry Christmas, man.

God bless and take care.

-Josh..!!

[david121090]

mccain is so fucking stupid lol. Ron Paul 2012

[darkmeateater]

Huckabee/Tancredo '08

[Zazierx]

anyone notice how the republicans seem to all hate each other?

[RRbattlefield]

Tom Tancredo or Duncin Hunter for 2008!!!!

[paulc1939]

Any fair tax law requires two things. First, it must be progressive -- billionaires should have a higher tax rate than middle income families. Second, everyone who earns the same amount should pay the exact same tax e.g., every family earning $100K should be taxed the same.

[hrishikeshks]

Hey dumbass, that's not a fair tax.

[paulc1939]

Wow, such an intellectual response! I changed mind.

[hrishikeshks]

Your grammar and complete misunderstanding of the most simple of economic ideas proves you have no mind.

[paulc1939]

Again, instead of trying to belittle me, please point out what is unfair about requiring those who benefit most from our system paying more; and what is fair about different tax bills for families earning the same income?

Note: there is nothing grammatically incorrect with my previous comments.

[goulwinds]

Even David Petraeus, the commanding general of American Army, said that the war cannot be won militarily. McCain should just shut up and start quoting people who really understand the situation.

The only person I can listen to is Ron Paul. He speaks the truth

[poe8171]

Exactly how do you 'win' McCain? We've already lost morally. Paul only wants to get our boys home from a war that isn't ours to fight now. Let the Iraqis take care of their own backyard.

[poe8171]

Hey Romney, where exactly IS Brazilia? He must have graduated from Yale with Bushie.

[poe8171]

Fair Tax is baloney, 23% is almost the same as the income tax. I love that these morons are slamming each other

[swoopracerX]

YYEEEAAAHHH!!! McCain JUST BITCHED SLAPPED RON PAUL!!

[ericsilentbob]

RON PAUL 2008!!!!

Mccain sucks.

[depechemallrat]

politics makes me sooo horny

[mistersumthing]

tancredo is such a cheezeball

[myniggle]

Thanks Hobobob for having all parts in order - appreciate it.

[syrisgone]

Huckabee would replace the IRS and Income tax with what he calls a Flat Tax.

In his words, this would not lower, or raise our taxes.

Yeah, he would change absolutely nothing but what the tax is called.

[pyromaniacjon]

Hehe. He said Brazillia. xD

Where's that?

6:58

[pyromaniacjon]

Nevermind, just looked it up.

[sjkelleyusarmy]

americans do not quit especially soldiers as one mr Ron paul we do not want to lose the war and we are getting through to the iraqi people we've change our strategy and the surge is working attacks on iraqis and americans are down and its only a matter of time until its a safe nation and remember germany was not a safe place after WW II while we occupied but its not talked about

[abinator3000]

so are you

[IloveUSA1950]

ok just give me your medicine. I m sure the medicine u have is much much stronger than mine. thanks a lot, whore.

[dakillabassist]

how did WE allow Hitler to come to power, WE are not Great Britain, or France WE did not appease Nazi Germany by giving them the Sudetenland. John Mccain is a war-monger and should not be alowed to run this country.

[IBJMN48]

Allowed Hitler!!!! You've got to be joking!! If John McCain wants to get into a war so bad, I suggest he go and fight again and leave our sons and daughters alone!!

[sjkelleyusarmy]

rememeber your sons and daughter made a decision to fight for and defend this nation we are not drafted in this nation and my mother has said the same things to me and i say to her i am a proud american soldier and i would gladly die for my country and for our freedoms here at home not because i love war i dont i hate it but some americans take thoughs burdens so the rest dont

[IBJMN48]

True, they did volunteer. However, this is an illegal war. They have a responsibility to stand up and say no!! After walking down QL 1 between MoDuc-Duc Pho, I hate war but hate even more the way the goverment treats our vets. (Such as wanting them to pay back a bonus if they are wounded and can't stay in - not to mention the Walter Reed incident. Sorry, we'll have to agree to disagree but I do HIGHLY respect the way you disagreed with me, without all the name calling, etc, etc.

John

[ballin76er]

It takes a gallon of diesel fuel to produce 1.3 gallons fuel from corn, which is ethanol. It's also 100% alcohol, which makes fuel burn quicker, so is it really conservation that oil and gas companies are after, or more fuel sales at higher prices.

[SJSR45]

HEMP

corn for energy does not workj

[DCUPtoejuice]

farming for energy is a false hope. Wake up Mitt.

[wellyes]

Agreed. bio fuel, like hydrogen, requires far more energy and resources to produce than the energy it produces itself. It's no wonder the big three automobile companies are following such a futile path. They know these energy sources will never pan out, and therefore, pose zero threat to oil production.

The best source of new energy is solar, which is renewable and essentially free with the infrastructure in place.

[ClemyNX]

And we could never replace all oil consumption with bio fuel, all fields should be used for this purpose only leaving no place for food culture.

[DCUPtoejuice]

The military takes an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. It is wrong for our leaders in Washington to send them into a pre-emptive battle with a nation that posed no imminent threat to the U.S.

[KraftTakt]

Hey, Mccain, guess what, World war 2 was none of Americas buisness either. Why did the USA under Rossevelt gave weapons and money to massmurdering Stalins Soviets, even before they entered the War? All America did was giving half of Europe to the communists and being stuck with their ideology even in America. Hey, another great example of not working interventionism, John!

[SomethingSea]

Besides, wasn't it Bush who said yes to the war?

[SomethingSea]

Boy, the dollar's shit now.

[saibjai]

this is better than american idol by far

[SomethingSea]

lol and far worse than the standard presidential debate that we would hope for too! ;)

[IloveUSA1950]

ok. just follow John Lennon.

[IloveUSA1950]

thank u whore.

[micfranklin]

Isolationism didn't cause WWII, Hitler and his fascist ideals did. You'd think with McCain being a veteran he'd at least know his history.

[hunhun505]

you said it!

[inertia186]

Looks like McCain needs a reading list.

[rmccay88]

@micfranklin

Haha agreed. It was funny how McCain went out of his way to bring that up.

On a separate note, I am from the south and it drives me crazy how people support Huckabee down here just because he use to be a pastor. I am a Christian and everything but I can't imagine anything sillier than voting for the elected leader of this country based off of something like that.

[looseluke82]

"McCain" just felt a little macho, so he took a cheap shot at Paul. Stay on the topic, John! Also, I thought this was a debate... not a history lesson from the VET about BIG BAD HITLER! Get out of the 20th century, brobro.

[PresidentRich]

McCan is an ignorant assclown. He needs to think carefully before he stupidly attacks Paul and gets pwned like he did here.

[leomytreoandjim]

McCain smart shit.

[Strav777]

Romney doesn't have the $ support from military that Paul does. There is a reason for that. Not many want to fight in a war over commercial interests/oil - the military is being used as it has been most of the 20th century, in wars that benefit the military industrial complex and big banks who fund them. Let the booer's enlist.

[SomethingSea]

Besides, wasn't it Bush who said yes to the war?

[IloveUSA1950]

crazy

[IloveUSA1950]

just like he said. Isolationism in the 20th century caused the Second World War!!! and just like he said! Our great men and women in Iraq they keep saying that! Just! LET! US! WIN!!! you crazy anti war fanatics!!! just shut the fuck up. go to hell just like crazy John Lennon.Next Repulican administration, We have to fully support our troops in Iraq just for their wish. Let Us Win!! goddamn it.

[TristateTripper]

Define "Win" as it pertains to Iraq.

[IloveUSA1950]

stabilize security in Iraq, and kill all the Islamic fanatics. most good mulims around the world, they don't support crazy fanatics terrorists in Iraq or even Iran.(they call themselves freedom fighter, Jihad fighter(soldier of holy war). but as we know they are not! they are keep killing innocent Iraqi people. same brothers as a muslim)that is the definition of winning in Iraq. do u agree? huh? you tell me!

[IloveUSA1950]

shut the fuck up u cocksucker! you must think you are really smarter than some people right? I think you are the most dumbass in the whole world.

[crisoner]

Romney the great white hope?

After 8 years of Bush why would we want this guy?

[observer75]

That's a lie and you're a lair.

[savageUSA]

Why is it that every time someone challenges Ron Paul on the war,they bring up WW2? WW2 was DECLARED by Hitler on US. We just INVADED Iraq with LIES! Ron Paul is a fellow veteran, McCain. He is not hurt by cheap shots. Hear the crowd Booo McCain???

[yoda6574]

Mccains actually right, we allowed Hitler to invade three areas, before we did anything. Paul is wrong. Get over it.

[Tr0x315]

It's COMPLETELY different. You shouldn't even be allowed to compare World War II to the "War on Terror". Hitler posed a real and proven threat. Maybe Saddam did at some point (i.e. 15 years ago) but the US "dealt" with that. It's sickening to hear those two things compared.

[yoda6574]

Actually, a comparison can be made. Paul is advocating from staying out of the Iraq War, staying out of places where its not our "business.' These same people were saying it wasn't our business then, too. We appeased Hitler. So should we appease the terrorists now? Should we say it isnt our "business" now?

[RideMyBMW]

"Paul is advocating from staying out of the Iraq War, staying out of places where its not our "business.'" - YODA

Dude, its apparently working for Chinese foreign policy...

[success5B7]

Hitler was a real threat to the Allies. The war in Irag is purely for oil. If you still believe that Irag war is a war on Terrorism, you must be truly dumb.

[loseit54612]

I disagree. Bush started the war for oil. That was obviously not good. However, our soldiers continue to fight in Iraq to supress terrorism and to help the people of Iraq.

[PoopStar32]

You guys are both idiots.

[loseit54612]

wow. what an intellignet comeback. good job!

...ignorant loser

[IloveUSA1950]

just shut the fuck up u cocksucker. u motherfucking crazy anti war mad john lennon follwer isolationist. because like u crazy people, great American values are under threat!

[TristateTripper]

Dude u need to stop getting so emotional when you offer rebuttals. People won't take u seriously.

[whereareyou1]

McCain did good and Ron Paul did ok not his best but ok think he done better in other debates.This debate he got trampled on and McCain did handle him wether you like it or not.Good I'm ready for 15 thumbs dowm by the same person with 15 acounts from a paul soupporter.

[SomethingSea]

Weird... 15 accounts just to put 15 thumb downs...

Some people have less of a life than me!

[Howlinblind]

Ron Paul just water boarded McCain LOL

Ron Paul Pat Bucannan 2008

[cdmsystem]

McCain stepped in a pile, he's sane then insane?

Ron Paul Had this one hands down.

Mitt is dumber than the President we have now.

[coltanium]

boom SHAKA-LAKA on ron paul. you all know mccain was right and mccain is not even my man.

[TristateTripper]

no he wasn't. isolationism did not cause WWII, and anyone who thinks so is WOEFULLY ignorant of history.

[brnoamik]

McCain should be challenging Mitt & Rudy...instead he targets Paul. What a fuckin moron. lol

[LetItBurnnn]

anderson is a lamo

[ShawnHydedotcom]

Pathetic, McCain taking twisted cheap shots at Ron Paul. McCain and Fred Tompson are clueless. I hate when candidates say stuff like I've done such and such better than anyone else here and point to the rest of the people running.

Watch "The Future of Food" farm subsidies is bad it makes it worse on the farmers.

[doncorleon818]

McCain is totally clueless. The time of Hitler is NOTHING like today.  That guy needs a real history lesson. Ron Paul is the only GOP candidate I support.

[sociald100]

I cant argue with that. He didnt do himself any favors in this debate so far.

[unsung1984]

McCain is an idiot.

[NY2216]

Can't argue with that.
