Anyone who has studied any of our history and economics beyond their pro-big-govt compulsory state indoctrinations this past 100yrs, will know that McCain is a lying POS; Hitler was backed by American "capitalists" in the early 30's, just as they had the Russian Revolution.
And BTW, WW1 and it's inhumane Treaty of Versaille against Germany who'd already promised a cease fire w/England who rejected it because they knew they could fool the US into bailing them out via subterfuge, caused WW2.

I don't blame you for your ignorance or being a plant, with such a "stupid" question. I blame the lack of education you received in school. Probably, if your state, where Presidente Buch, is from, concentrated more on educating those Americans like you, instead of breaking Immigration laws, putting Border Patrol agents in jail for doing their job, etc.. you would have had a more rewarding and better education. So "seekster", I don't blame you. Your a product of your enviroment, unfortunately.
Ron Pauls "a good number of them buy into the conspiracy theory." is he just ignorant or stupid. US Military,Pauls' BIGGEST BACKERS, according to someone named, "seekster??" are majorily, conspiracy nuts. And your right seekster, OBL and Saddam, weren't our allies; we also never funded OBL against Russia; OBL, never got mad at America, for setting boots down in Saudi, when he originally wanted to protect Kuwait from (his friend Saddam's army??) during the first Gulf War. Your stupidity shows.
Seekster???, you plant, is a good thing for Ron Paul, in my opinion. When your own Party, can use you to LEAD THE TEXAS "GREAT RONALD" REAGAN DELEGATION, TO A PRESIDENCY, and consider you the "Constitutional Representative", then the Rep. Party must know your good. A few years later, Paul becomes even a stronger, respectable player in the Rep.Party. Now those who control the Rep. Party, (those profiting on dead soldiers) are scared of this VETERAN/Doctor, Anti-War, Constitutionalist.
For all of you who watched the Youtube Debate, I want to know why, out of all the questionair videos, the only one that doesn't have the persons name, written on the screen, is one DIRECTED AT RON PAUL, ABOUT CONSPIRACY THEORIES? No other candidate had this type of unanimous questioner. Talk about Conspiracy. Was this intentionally directed at Paul, so he couldn't "FACE HIS ACCUSER" OR NO ONE COULD ASK THE GUY, WHO SET HIM UP TO IT? Or is the guy, a scared plant, for anothe candidate.

That POS was an actor. Look at him and his expression at the end.Also, I believe it was this very same debate I watched live aired the Hilary homo planting a question, who gives a fuck about Romney though. Still, CNN had corruption in the air that night. They didnt air that Hilary homo afterwards and in the post debate discussion Coopers like "we didnt know that etc" and they cut that from that question from reruns but the original airing obviously draws a larger audience.
That's true. That was the night that the Hillary Plant was found. That is why, as outrageous of a sell out, FAUX News, Sean Hannity, Orielly, Geraldo Rivera, etc.. is, CNN is just as bad. They are both owned by Global lobbiest, who are profiting on the backs of dying American soldiers. If this wasn't the case, wouldn't these American Businessmen/women, support the 1 Candidate that wants a secure and prospurous America?? Its no coincidence is it?
why are republicans talking about immigration when we have bigger problems like uhm........global warming? or even mortgage problems? what's up with that?
Because they are mostly white guys who are xenophobic & afraid of anyone who isn't white, wealthy, American, or male. They also don't want to talk about real problems because their economic policies & their chest-beating foreign policies suck, & their concern for the planet that keeps us all alive is always trumped by bigger profits for the ruling class & corporate CEO's. They CREATE issues, like gay marriage, to avoid letting people see how bad their policies on real issues are.
While I can agree with you that our foreign relation policies suck, I would like to address this:
"They CREATE issues, like gay marriage, to avoid letting people see how bad their policies on real issues are."
The last time I checked, it was shit-eating, asshole rimming homosexuals who created gay marriage in the first place. To blame a political party on "creating" a problem like gay marriage is totally absurd.
Steve...That's not what he is saying. They blew up the issue for the sake of argument, does it really matter what people do in their personal time and lives? Using degrading comments like that is completely disgusting, besides I know plenty of couples who enjoy similar activities. Open up your skull and break free some our Christian social stereotypes. For the sake of us all.
Ron Paul doesn't know how to run a campaign. He is just sitting on 20 million dollars and not doing anything. He got a dismal 10% in the Iowa caucus and probably wont get much more. His poor campaign organization will lead to many disillusioned young voters.
meh, i'd say 3/4's of it is the media hating on RP. he has a blimp, he has ads. but the news doesnt mention his name ever, and they even leave him out of debates. so unless you're a internet surfer you probably wouldnt know about him or his ideas.
He did take a stand. He took the stand that it's not the presidents job to decide that and it's not. You have no idea how our government is supposed to work. Oh yeah, and abortion is wrong. I'm glad my mom didn't abort me so I can tell people like you the harsh truth. Sorry if a life is an inconvenience to you, but that life that's aborted would one day be an adult and maybe a great world changing person. Doesn't matter if they were aborted just after conception or in the 2nd or 3rd trimester.
WTF i never said that i supported abortion i think that abortion is the most evil thing to ever exsist and abortion past the 1st trimester should be counted as murder! so back the fuck up on your power trip
Mccain is really starting to piss me off. He tries to take stabs at ron paul in every debate and they always backfire. His view of history is so warped. Go Ron Go!!!
Oh my god, why does Mccain have to bring in his stupid "I fought in Vietnam" crap to every debate? Seriously, who the fuck cares? This is war, Mr. Mccain. Is that what anyone wants? Shit, talk normally and discuss the real issues instead of bragging whatever the hell you did in Vietnam and asking for people's sympathy for being a POW. What a fake candidate...
McCain is such a retard...his facts are all wrong...he should just quit the candidacy..or be banned from youtube debates...wow I can't stand such a dumbass!
I just loved it when Ron looked down at McCain, very much like a condescending father, when the stupid bastard brought up the Hitler card into the game...like "uh-uh, not a chance buddie"
Well, I'm with Ron Paul on some things and definitely NOT with him on other things. I just love how the Republicans have bastardized the idea of government as a force of good that works for the public interest. Excuse me, Ron, but if this country's bridges are in such poor state of repair, who is going to pay for their repair?? With your anti-tax mentality, it's no wonder the republican party is such a terrible party at leading this country.
The income tax does NOT pay for highways. According to a study done for Regan the income tax mainly goes to pay the intrest generated by the federal reserve. Anti tax and anti income tax are two totally diffrent things. The beast of the federal government is feed through taxation, restrain the flow of money and slay the beast.
Excuse me, I did not specify "income tax" per say. I merely said mentioned TAXES. Taxes of ANYKIND are necessary to build and repair the infrastructure of a nation unless you privatize everything and see where that get's you?? The federal government is seen as a beast by republicans and people like you and could care less that the government employs people and pays their salaries. Slay the beast and you slay people.
However it is not taxes of anykind that are USED to pay for infrastructure, it is gas taxes and tolls. And as far as seeing the federal government as a beast, it is obvious to those who look, those who are not in it's employ and need it's power and scope to pay their own bills. It's is not the FG's duty to pay salaries and provide for their well being, it is the duty of the FG to defend our liberty and protect us from invasion. Go far enough down the line and the two become mutually exclusive.
It is the duty of the government to defend liberty, protect us from invasion AND provide social security! (among other services). The fact is, you're a strict conservative and want to go back to 1776 when we live in 2007 and the times have changed, buddy! The federal government is needed more than EVER before to provide services to the American people which the private market FAILS to do without costing the citizens more than they can afford to pay.
The times may have changed but humanity has not, where positions of power are to be had they will be sought by thieves and cretins. The problem with these noble ideas of welfare is that those who promise riches often provide only ruin. In a time where we are on the cusp of dictatorship arguing for more power in the hands of the federal government is follie. At the state level programs of welfare are more controllable and graft easier to address.
BTW the only reason I want to go back to 1776 is because it fits in more closely with my hygienic habits. I bath once a week whether I need to or not. LOL. I'm a Mennonite hacker an Amish cracker, and my horse gets better MPG than you car!
You, my dear horse, are referring to corruption. Human corruption. It is endemic in anykind of economy, capitalist, socialist or communist. The private market is filled with greed, greed and more greed and would be even more corrupt if it weren't for government.
Wilbur what are you DOING behind me?!? Government is there to protect us from that greed used in illegal ways, but when government is the provider of services, and carries with it the force of the gun, to whom to go as an arbritator? I am not an anarchist, I believe in the rule of law, the rule of just law I should say, but I think you would agree that our government does not abide by the law and so I am leary of giving any more power than is necessary.
The TROOPS aren't winning, they are dying and wasting billions of tax dollars; the war is NOT a success, democracy (especially America's psuedo version of it) will not prevail in Iraq anytime soon.
Either that applause track is fake or people are just plain fucking stupid. Clap some more, idiots.
Imy: Have you been to Iraq yourself? No, didn't think so. I'm an OIF veteran and a Lcpl in the USMC and I will gladly tell you about Iraq. The bottom line, is we are there now and we have a mission to accomplish. We have won every battle and we overthrew Saddam Hussein, who could in time have been the next Hitler.
Have you seen faces of neocons when Ron Paul confirms about CFR existence and progress with North American Union. This bastards are really whant to do this and their whant to do this in secrecy. They were very unpleased that this question have appeared.
Hey BolshevikPower, so what if some Arabs want us in the middle east. Its not our job. The US should not be the moral/political police of the world. If you want change in your country, make it happen yourself, don't ask the US to intervene. The last thing you want is US intervention, because then the US will control you/your governmnet.
Help them or help ourselves to their resources and land?
And nobility is greatness through blood, ordained by God, exactly the kind of mentality we shucked off 231 years ago. At least I thought so :( We are only better because we have a better system of government, and it was not ordained by God but taken from noblity by great men.
Opps. Sorry BloshevikPower, I removed your comment on how immigrations is a non issue, I meant to reply.
Immigration might not look like it is an issue form over in Qatar, but here in the States it's a real issue. We are losing our national identity and our government is ignoring the rule of law when it benefits them and their corporate backers. How is that not a serious issue?
Seriously? Dude this is not Europe, the rise in price is partially due to increased demand, aka China, India, and other third world middle class growth, but mostly because of speculated flow disruptions due to.... what? US war and ME reaction to it. Jeese louise, there hasn't been a major increse in taxes in the US! There's no way the rise in price is due to taxes....
The federal government hasn't. But its all the separate taxes that have made things more expensive... i.e. city taxes, county taxes, state taxes. It adds up.
I live in Qatar where they have THE main base for military operations in Iraq. I have never heard from the soldiers that they want to come home. You people who want them to come home are slapping them in the face; all the hard work and people that have died trying to save the Iraqi peoples' freedom will be in vain.
And wow this guy can't remember who the Kurds are. Those are the one's we tried to save in Desert Storm. Plus CNN totally screwed up the whole debate.
People who want the soldiers to come home are NOT slapping them in the face. You're just wrong, sorry. If you truly believe that I suggest you tell that to the soldiers who overwhelmingly support Ron Paul, as he has raised more money from the troops than all the other Republicans combined. America is a country where the civilians are the ones who decide when and where to deploy military force not the military.
I don't understand what you said there. You said it wasn't a slap in the face and left it at that.
These people have seen their friends, brothers, and sisters die in Iraq. How would it not be a slap in the face to say, "Hey. Quit whatever you are doing. And come home. You know all those soldiers that died? Doesn't matter anymore. We shouldn't have sent you guys in the first place."
Then Iraq goes back to being controlled by a dictator. The Kurds will still be discriminated. Thousands of people will die. The insurgents have said themselves that they do not want the democratic government in power.
All of it. All these deaths. All the reasons you want
I live in the Middle East. I think I know Arabs pretty well. They want us here. They want us to help Islam gain its credibility again and they want us to take out all the extremists.
Then Iraq goes back to being controlled by a dictator. The Kurds will still be discriminated. Thousands of people will die. The insurgents have said themselves that they do not want the democratic government in power.
It doesn't make any sense at all. We've used enough money on this. Let's not waste it all.
I think that argument of 'even if it was a screwup to go in, if we pull out now we'll have nothing to show for it' is BS. Exactly what goals do you think we can archive through the barrel of a gun in Iraq? Can we make them democratic? If so can we direct that democratic fervor to principles we agree with? If the Iraq's where to vote in a theocratic government would that be a victory for democracy? Ultimately we are just trying to strengthen our empire.
Millions of Iraqis have died in the chaos since Saddam was toppled. Wake up, and realize that this is completely a war for profit for a select few. The mission of taking out Saddam WAS accomplished. Now its just finishing up the infrastructure to nab every last drop of oil out of the region, while the conflict is sparked by Al'CIAda and is burning brighter than ever. Meanwhile, our nation's economy is on the way out, with China and friends in the buyout waiting room as our dollar sinks.
Look at who the troops support. If what you say is true then McCain would have the troops behind him..... he doesn't. The fundrasing comming from the troops goes first to Ron Paul then to others who have at least voiced opposition to the war. So are the troops slaping themselvs in the face then?
Sure OIL had a lot to do with it. Controlling the oil resources....Putting permanent bases up so that we can close the ones in Arabia down, and destabilize the middle east so that Israel doesn't have to contend with strong arab nations.
The Iraq war was planned out even before 9/11. Wake up.
Bolshevik: 12 Billion to various places, including Halliburton, Blackwater, etc.
The oil isn't instantly collected and sold like Sonic running through golden coins. Yet, Take a good look at where the oil market is and where its heading. This is the oil rush. Exxon made a 340 billion profit in 2005.
This from a guy that has the name Bolshevik power. We aren't there to save the Iraqi people, our mission is to fight terrorism, remember? We're out to get the f#ckers that attacked us on 9/11, so what are we doing in Iraq?
McCain must have consulted with Karl Rove for this stunt. "Let us win?" what a joke! How about this..."Let US win...the people" This war is illegal and it is a huge failure. Game over. McCain is trying to save face. McCain blew his chance in 2000. McCain is a puppet.
It was sickening how CNN smeared the Paul/ McCain argument over Iraq and deicided it was ok to eliminate Ron Paul's best comeback and made McCain look like the winner
I really don't see what the media has against Ron Paul, oh well, he's 3-0 in the debates, first against Guliani, then Huckabee, now McCain, all of the lost, because all they do is repeat Bush's bullshit and RP actually argues intelligently with common sense and facts
I think McCain's attack on Paul was hilarious! I ran into one of my friends who had just returned from serving a year in Iraq and he said a lot of soldiers compare Bush to Hitler! It doesn't sound like McCain listened to the soldiers while he was with them.
This was his strongest debate yet. He really is showing great leadership in taking the reigns of this revolution and become such a beacon of hope! Lets keep it going :)
nothing but a CNN setup, listen to those phony accents and obscure questions they planted (and they make sure to ask Ron Paul questions that make him look awkward), although it's all good because it gives Paul press, and because no matter what you can't keep freedom down: RON PAUL '08 !!!!! "Washington didn't change me"
I agree. He always gets the "I'm gonna paint you with the conspiracy-kook-extreme-rightwing-radical" questions. But, see how well he handles the question calmly, intelligently, and difusses all attempts to make him look like a nut. I LOVE IT!!!
I'm from Canada and I really hope Ron Paul wins. I must say the US media could use some improvements. They seem to only be interested in candidates that can deliver their positions in 20 seconds or less. Why would anyone elect a leader who has a position that can be described in 20 seconds! I haven't seen any televised speeches in the presidential race, are there any? It also seems strange to me that Guliani and Romney can make bold faced lies and that they go unchallenged.
It's so refreshing to see a candidate just rub the CFR issue right in the faces of CFR member Giuliani, CFR member McCain, CFR member Thonpson, and CFR bitch Romney.
Dr. Paul turns towards all four of them when he says "I don't like this trend towards international government". 1:48
McCain dident speak to me, and im in the army. I actually support Ron Paul, i really believe our economy is much more important than continuing the war in Iraq. Our debt is just ridiculous, and Ron is the only one that understands how money works, and has a common sence way of fixing things.Not to say he is the only one with a chance of beating the democrats, because a vote for any other republican wont even matter at the end.
I PRAY that among Rons LOYAL military and ex-military supporters there is also a group of hardcore COMMANDOS who have already started organizing some sort of body guard defense for this great man
In supporting this man, and his sacred ideals, we are going to have to sacrifice to PROTECT him also.
I urge those close to Ron Paul to begin acting and planning NOW for the VERY REAL eventuality that powerful people are going to want to silence him in the near future.
I know a lot of people, including myself, feel the same way. Please God, protect this man from harm. After the CFR / NAU answer I am afraid for his safety now more than ever. David Rockefeller probably shit his pants when he heard that response.
You are so right. The elite do not play when it comes to the final stages of this life long goal of global socialism. This is it folks...support this man or fight later. If he loses this election, watch gun sales go through the roof as people start arming up. Lets help others escape the Real Matrix as fast as possible...long live the REPUBLIC!!
72 years of age and more COGNITIVE than any other person on TV,let alone in politics.
Ron does not WAVER..Ron does not Bicker..Ron does not throw stones..he just asks you to OPEN YOUR EYES and PAY ATTENTION to what has happened..to try to (god forbid) LEARN from the mistakes of your ancestors and, in the case of our founding fathers, acknowledge the WISDOM of some of our ancestors.
You know the very best part of this clip.. Is when Ron Paul straight up says "this country is in a revolution". He took the slogan created by the people and rammed it home. Way to go Dr. Paul! I cannot wait to see the blimp with that huge "Ron Paul" on the side! That is going to be millions worth of publicity! All true grass roots too!
Ron Paul is the most knowledgeable candidate by far. Maybe that is because he is one of the few congressmen who actually read the bills before voting. That's why he knows so many are unconstitutional. The rest might vote the same way if they actually did their job.
Go Ron Paul! McCain got booed down for attacking Ron!! He got owned by Paul! Did anyone else see that knowing grin Paul had?? :)
I think it was a great question! You could never get that kind of answer out of any other candidate, for those who listen closely, and no other candidate would tell the truth, that the conspiracy theory is that some are calling it a conspiracy theory insted of F*&%*# FACT!
I'm sickened by CNN's tactics. How can the American people learn about ALL the candidates when they did not get equal opportunity to speak? In term of speaking segments this is how it stacked up:
7 each for Tancredo and Hunter
9 for Paul
11 for Thompson
12 each for Huckabee and McCain
19 for Romney
20 for Giuliani
Once I figure out the actual airtime the unfairness will be even more stark!
This was not a debate. This was a biased ad campaign based upon CNN's choices.
love the paid clones they put in the front rows. Are they suppose to be ideal republicans? Disgusting!

Oh my god, why does Mccain have to bring in his stupid "I fought in Vietnam" crap to every debate? Seriously, who the fuck cares? This is war, Mr. Mccain. Is that what anyone wants? Shit, talk normally and discuss the real issues instead of bragging whatever the hell you did in Vietnam and asking for people's sympathy for being a POW. What a fake candidate...

Well, I'm with Ron Paul on some things and definitely NOT with him on other things. I just love how the Republicans have bastardized the idea of government as a force of good that works for the public interest. Excuse me, Ron, but if this country's bridges are in such poor state of repair, who is going to pay for their repair?? With your anti-tax mentality, it's no wonder the republican party is such a terrible party at leading this country.
cutis1000 4 years ago
The income tax does NOT pay for highways. According to a study done for Regan the income tax mainly goes to pay the intrest generated by the federal reserve. Anti tax and anti income tax are two totally diffrent things. The beast of the federal government is feed through taxation, restrain the flow of money and slay the beast.
sudsmanJ 4 years ago
Excuse me, I did not specify "income tax" per say. I merely said mentioned TAXES. Taxes of ANYKIND are necessary to build and repair the infrastructure of a nation unless you privatize everything and see where that get's you?? The federal government is seen as a beast by republicans and people like you and could care less that the government employs people and pays their salaries. Slay the beast and you slay people.
cutis1000 4 years ago
However it is not taxes of anykind that are USED to pay for infrastructure, it is gas taxes and tolls. And as far as seeing the federal government as a beast, it is obvious to those who look, those who are not in it's employ and need it's power and scope to pay their own bills. It's is not the FG's duty to pay salaries and provide for their well being, it is the duty of the FG to defend our liberty and protect us from invasion. Go far enough down the line and the two become mutually exclusive.
sudsmanJ 4 years ago
It is the duty of the government to defend liberty, protect us from invasion AND provide social security! (among other services). The fact is, you're a strict conservative and want to go back to 1776 when we live in 2007 and the times have changed, buddy! The federal government is needed more than EVER before to provide services to the American people which the private market FAILS to do without costing the citizens more than they can afford to pay.
cutis1000 4 years ago
The times may have changed but humanity has not, where positions of power are to be had they will be sought by thieves and cretins. The problem with these noble ideas of welfare is that those who promise riches often provide only ruin. In a time where we are on the cusp of dictatorship arguing for more power in the hands of the federal government is follie. At the state level programs of welfare are more controllable and graft easier to address.

BTW the only reason I want to go back to 1776 is because it fits in more closely with my hygienic habits. I bath once a week whether I need to or not. LOL. I'm a Mennonite hacker an Amish cracker, and my horse gets better MPG than you car!
sudsmanJ 4 years ago
You, my dear horse, are referring to corruption. Human corruption. It is endemic in anykind of economy, capitalist, socialist or communist. The private market is filled with greed, greed and more greed and would be even more corrupt if it weren't for government.
cutis1000 4 years ago
Wilbur what are you DOING behind me?!? Government is there to protect us from that greed used in illegal ways, but when government is the provider of services, and carries with it the force of the gun, to whom to go as an arbritator? I am not an anarchist, I believe in the rule of law, the rule of just law I should say, but I think you would agree that our government does not abide by the law and so I am leary of giving any more power than is necessary.

Hey BolshevikPower, so what if some Arabs want us in the middle east. Its not our job. The US should not be the moral/political police of the world. If you want change in your country, make it happen yourself, don't ask the US to intervene. The last thing you want is US intervention, because then the US will control you/your governmnet.

It's French for the nobility obliges. The US is the nobility of the world. And we are obliged to help those less fortunate.

And nobility is greatness through blood, ordained by God, exactly the kind of mentality we shucked off 231 years ago. At least I thought so :( We are only better because we have a better system of government, and it was not ordained by God but taken from noblity by great men.

Opps. Sorry BloshevikPower, I removed your comment on how immigrations is a non issue, I meant to reply.
Immigration might not look like it is an issue form over in Qatar, but here in the States it's a real issue. We are losing our national identity and our government is ignoring the rule of law when it benefits them and their corporate backers. How is that not a serious issue?
sudsmanJ 4 years ago
Well sorry. I didn't mean to say it like that. It's not AS big an issue I don't think compared to energy prices, War in Iraq among other things.
They just spent a real long time debating that when they could have debated something a little more worth while.

Taxes buddy.

BolshevikPower 4 years ago
Seriously? Dude this is not Europe, the rise in price is partially due to increased demand, aka China, India, and other third world middle class growth, but mostly because of speculated flow disruptions due to.... what? US war and ME reaction to it. Jeese louise, there hasn't been a major increse in taxes in the US! There's no way the rise in price is due to taxes....
sudsmanJ 4 years ago
The federal government hasn't. But its all the separate taxes that have made things more expensive... i.e. city taxes, county taxes, state taxes. It adds up.
BolshevikPower 4 years ago
I live in Qatar where they have THE main base for military operations in Iraq. I have never heard from the soldiers that they want to come home. You people who want them to come home are slapping them in the face; all the hard work and people that have died trying to save the Iraqi peoples' freedom will be in vain.
And wow this guy can't remember who the Kurds are. Those are the one's we tried to save in Desert Storm. Plus CNN totally screwed up the whole debate.
BolshevikPower 4 years ago
People who want the soldiers to come home are NOT slapping them in the face. You're just wrong, sorry. If you truly believe that I suggest you tell that to the soldiers who overwhelmingly support Ron Paul, as he has raised more money from the troops than all the other Republicans combined. America is a country where the civilians are the ones who decide when and where to deploy military force not the military.
sudsmanJ 4 years ago
I don't understand what you said there. You said it wasn't a slap in the face and left it at that.
These people have seen their friends, brothers, and sisters die in Iraq. How would it not be a slap in the face to say, "Hey. Quit whatever you are doing. And come home. You know all those soldiers that died? Doesn't matter anymore. We shouldn't have sent you guys in the first place."

I think that argument of 'even if it was a screwup to go in, if we pull out now we'll have nothing to show for it' is BS. Exactly what goals do you think we can archive through the barrel of a gun in Iraq? Can we make them democratic? If so can we direct that democratic fervor to principles we agree with? If the Iraq's where to vote in a theocratic government would that be a victory for democracy? Ultimately we are just trying to strengthen our empire.
sudsmanJ 4 years ago
Millions of Iraqis have died in the chaos since Saddam was toppled. Wake up, and realize that this is completely a war for profit for a select few. The mission of taking out Saddam WAS accomplished. Now its just finishing up the infrastructure to nab every last drop of oil out of the region, while the conflict is sparked by Al'CIAda and is burning brighter than ever. Meanwhile, our nation's economy is on the way out, with China and friends in the buyout waiting room as our dollar sinks.

Oil was not the reason the US came in here.
They spend more than 12 Billion dollars A MONTH, to keep the troops in Iraq. There is no way in hell that Iraq can create that much oil as revenue.
And Israel? Why would we be in Iraq for Israel's sake?
BolshevikPower 4 years ago
Sure OIL had a lot to do with it. Controlling the oil resources....Putting permanent bases up so that we can close the ones in Arabia down, and destabilize the middle east so that Israel doesn't have to contend with strong arab nations.
The Iraq war was planned out even before 9/11. Wake up.
timeactor 4 years ago
Bolshevik: 12 Billion to various places, including Halliburton, Blackwater, etc.
The oil isn't instantly collected and sold like Sonic running through golden coins. Yet, Take a good look at where the oil market is and where its heading. This is the oil rush. Exxon made a 340 billion profit in 2005.

I haven't seen any televised speeches in the presidential race, are there any? It also seems strange to me that Guliani and Romney can make bold faced lies and that they go unchallenged.

Ron Paul is the most knowledgeable candidate by far. Maybe that is because he is one of the few congressmen who actually read the bills before voting. That's why he knows so many are unconstitutional. The rest might vote the same way if they actually did their job.
