Nation Building (Ron Paul vs. George Bush and Dick Cheney)

[Pazrayna]

They must have put flouride in their water.

[lolhahah21]

Thumbs up if you thought of Family Guy when Ron Paul said Quagmire!

[gerty335]

Ron Paul maybe out of step with the Republican party, but we still want him to sit in the white house at this point.

[reed311]

Same party, same idiots.

[royaladam]

Ron the fact that Reagan he let Marines die in 1983 in Lebanon & IN HIS WATCH!

[athabascka]

So basically, Ron Paul wanted to hand over Iraq to al Qaeda in 2007. A reckless, stupid and shortsighted policy of an ideologue, not a rational thinking human. He deserves zero attention and zero respect.

[NRPBrute]

@athabascka Ron Paul didn't want to invade Iraq in the first place you jackass. Get your facts straight before you talk shit. You deserve zero respect and zero attention. 

[athabascka]

@NRPBrute: Wanting to allow a dictator who committed genocide to continue ruling a terrorized people is bad enough. But then wanting to hand over Iraq to jihadists? A new safe haven for al Qaeda? All this from a man who thought al Qaeda attacked us because we were bombing Iraq.. One of the goals of the jihadists is to restore the Islamic Caliphate of the 13th century. A part of that would be overthrowing any government in the region, including the "infidel" Saddam Hussein. Ron Paul knows nothing

[Madfoot713]

@athabascka "All this from a man who thought al Qaeda attacked us because we were bombing Iraq.."

A huge oversimplification of a complex issue. CIA reports support Ron Paul's theory of blowback.

[NRPBrute]

@athabascka Have you ever heard of Pol Pot? Why didn't you great freedom loving people ever go after him? Oh....there was no oil to be had in his nation.

[athabascka]

@NRPBrute: Yeah, I've heard all those stupid comments a thousand times. It was all for oil. The real problem in the world is George Bush, not the Islamic threat to secular civilization. Saddam Hussein should have been allowed to get away with genocide, never seeing a trial, living a rich and privilaged life until his death as the masses around him suffer under brutal dictatorship, eventually handing control to his two psychopathic rapist sons. Any standard of morality underminds your position.

[NRPBrute]

@athabascka Hey retard, that would have never even been an option had the United States not invaded another country under false pretenses. You warmongers and your interventionist foreign policy is what has dragged the US into the conflicts in the Middle East.

[athabascka]

@NRPBrute: Well it was an option that Ron Paul believed we should take, giving Iraq to al Qaeda. And it was stupid. You naive Ron Paul fans think the US has no interests in the world to fight for. And it does.

[NRPBrute]

@athabascka You naive warmongers think we are better off interfering in countries halfway around the world. Like their people will never take offense to it.

[doooobies332]

Was there a point to this video?? Any politician could be cast in a shitty light if you took news clippings out of context over a period of 8 years.

[antimatter7629]

I'm pretty sure what Ron Paul was referring to was George Bush senior not George W. Bush.

[csasba]

Dick Cheney should be in jail.

[mutantstrain]

The present Republican party is a quagmire

[rasl04]

9/11 also should never be used as an excuse for expanding federal power and stomping on the Constitution

[quezcatol]

If you dont understand what I refer to then you're retarded.

Seriously you're.

[quezcatol]

Why do you include Bush Speech from 2000?

I recall him saying he changed his mind after 9/11 that they cant stand aside anymore.

So whats the point?

[ghostandgoblins]

America is falling apart. Thats the point. Thats always been the point. The war is not needed for the safety of US. America can only be and is being pulled apart from the inside. No country on this planet can harm USA, no external organisation. What that clip from 2000 showed was common sense. In times of trouble you do not abandon common sense. So you think the events of 9/11 has shown the value/need for nation building? Nation building has nothing to do with protecting your country. Idiot.

[quezcatol]

"Nation building has nothing to do with protecting your country." and then this moron writes "Idiot".

Read a history book about what happend with germany after ww1 and after ww2.

You dumbfuck.

[ghostandgoblins]

/facepalm. Fuck i am the idiot for even thinking i was dealing with some one capable of thought. I feel dirty. Please just forget i said anything. You are right. ww2. Awesome. Good bye.

[seonf]

why is it when a republican changes his mind it's ok but when a democrat changes it he's a flip flopper?

[Bugstomper2]

Let's see. The voting system was mostly computerized. No receipts. Well, that's easy to rig the elections then. Tell me a few people can't control the world? New World Order baby!

[tsloaner01]

what was the country thinking electing george bush

[Sepero1]

Um, that he wasn't a liar?

[CoolaCreations]

oh but 9/11 changed everything *rolls eyes*

[moybutter]

I'm tired of hearing this excuse. 9/11 doesn't mean that the president has the green light to go to war with whoever he wants. It doesn't mean that we go to war wrecklessly with countries that are no threat to us.

[ms15303]

This needs to be played and heard far and wide. Great job.

[coffeewithchess]

Awesome, AWESOME job making this video!

[arsyfoox]

wdf? they knew it all along and still got in? Morons. Or are they? Let's look at the Halliburton income statistics? How are their stock doing now?

[friedenmeister]

get your money ready for the 16th of december. the fundraiser is going to be huge. teaparty07 dot com

[ziyonex]

Well, I don't know how people can forget this shit so easily. Logically, I cannot comprehend it. Since I am only 18, and have just gotten into politics, I can exclude from those who have "forgotten". But seriously people, this is ridiculous.. given past events, how can you not see this ongoing pattern slapping you in the face?

[BobaFettTDG]

Great stuff. More people need to hear this message. Thanks for sharing!

Americans in general seem to have very short memories. I'm sure it has a lot to do with the media and lack of accurate and fair reporting. Thanks to the internet people are waking up to this and can obtain historical information quickly.

[Carlitos1010]

How can people forget so easily? it wasn't even a decade ago.... are we really a country of 6 year olds?

[apc3161]

Awesome man. Great video
