  • bachman wants compensation for destroying iraq and libya and murdering civilians? what a dipshit someone punch her in the mouth!

  • NO SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL!!!!!!!!!!!

    HOLY SHIT

    I LOVE THIS MAN...the best of the bunch..

    God Bless him and his courage-Wish i was american so i'd get to vote for him

  • I love Ron Paul, but I disagree with him on this Important issue.

    We NEED to support Israel. What? Should we let the Palestians take Israel over, so that they can soon defeat the US.? It makes no sense. Besides, Israel is God's chosen nation, we need to defend them!

  • Good Speech Ron Paul

  • It should not be the job of any country to liberate another country....

    Also when she says liberated she really means, when we went in and bombed civilians for oil.

  • can anyone tell me exactly how much israel has received in foreign aid, in dollars and cents, and what has america got out of it? is it value for money?

  • Ron Paul had a good nap prior to this debate!

    When he is on he is on.

    But,, you seldom see the out takes of him in Wa. DC falling asleep.

  • I think it's time for Santorum, Perry and Bachman to bow out.

  • Why vote for a candidate that mimicks and imitates Ron Paul's platform, when you can just vote for Ron Paul in 2012 ?

  • Lol Bachmann has trouble keeping her mouth from hanging open

  • there stealing rons idears if you vote for them they will flip flop. why would rommny repeal obama care he invented it

  • According to Michele Bachman: "Hey, Mr. Iraqi, sorry for blowing up your country, but in that process, we also made your country free. You're welcome. Now, before you start rebuilding and cleaning up our mess, here's a bill for our trouble. Failure to pay your bill promptly will result in a collection agency to get involved, causing a downgrade in your credit rating. We hope you enjoy capitalism and democracy as much as we do."

    Sincerely,

    America

  • @duvalinhn u would have a point if u are talking to sadaam hussein. but if ure talking to Maliki, he NEVER HAD A CHANCE as long as sadaam was n power. he was in exile. and his poeple were being oppressed. thats why they were so happy to hang sadaam. there is hatred between the sunnis and the shias. the only thing they agree on is how much they hate jews. so YES it would be fitting to hand Maliki a bill. so the woman with the irritating voice who talks out of her nose was right this time.

  • @derrickbanes i guess if you can hand maliki a bill then they can do the same...what would be the bill for all the deaths hundreds of thousands if not millions of innocent iraqi's since bush said "they have wmd's and nukes, so lets get em'?

  • @plwpahi hundreds of thousands lives lost during this war, but millions would have been lost had the Shiites tried an uprising without intervention. thats goes for maliki and al-sadr. they feared sadaam hussein's revolutionary guard. either the u.s. would have gotten involved just like it did in libya. but on in iran fo

  • @derrickbanes OIL!!! if these wars were truly for humanitarianism reasons then go and take out all the evil dictators in the world, not just the ones that don't want to trade their OIL for U.S. dollars anymore. What happened to Capitalism and the Free Market? Don't forget, less Iraqi's died under Saddam than than they did under Bush's invasion for WMD's and until 1991 he had the full support of the american government in everything he did. So does that make america the same of worse than him?

  • @plwpahi the latter part of your writing has some truth to it but you miss hte point of WHY we supported him back then.. Iran has been an enemy of the u.s. for a long time so thats why sadaam had our support. but the first part of your statement u need 2go back and read your history unless you are counting the iraqis that were killed by the loyalists of sadaam. when people make that statement it leaves the impressione that americans killed thousands of innocent iraqi civilians

  • @derrickbanes i'm sorry but america, is, responsible for thousands of civilian deaths in iraq. directly and indirectly. because the vast majority of those deaths would not have taken place if not for the invasion. an invasion that was built on false intell, which, sadly, only makes america's responsibility even greater.

  • Ronald Reagan is dead. I wish GOP would stop sucking his dick every election, thinking that lowering taxes will solve all our problems. 

  • Michele Bachmann suggests that Iraq should reimburse us for invading them due to bad intel. Is she fucking crazy?

  • Ron Paul's MoneyBomb donation starts Oct. 19 and runs 72 hours. Please anyone who can afford to donate, even $1, please do so. This rally is to prove to the mainstream media that we will not be manipulated. We will not allow the mainstream media to decide who is electable and who isn't. We will not allow the mainstream media to censor information. Support Ron Paul and let the mainstream media know that WE THE PEOPLE, not them, will decide who is electable.

    Please donate ronpaul2012[dot]com

  • The beautiful "Arab Spring" has sprung in Libya, Ghaddafi is dead, and Michelle Bachman wants the US military to be (reimboursed) mercenaries? When an evil despot massacres citizens in the streets we will only help if we are paid? Most Americans don't even have a passport, have never stepped outside the country, and therefore have very little understanding of how the world is affected by US foreign policy!

  • The only good thing about all these candidates standing on either side of Ron Paul is this. When you have one guy telling the truth, and all other candidates just using talking points and lieing, he seems even that more genuine and credible.

  • When politicians pledge allegiance to israel in that way they are not talking to the american public but rather begging from the money rich pro-israel lobby groups such as AIPAC for campaign donation and the support from the zionist owned right wing media.

  • Yep we go around trying to shape the world with our money and expect them to love us only IF we give them money, why the hell doesn't Israel love us regardless of whether we give money to them or not, what a bunch of greedy welfare statists in Israel dependent on American welfare. Why should anyone get any welfare from us, it's foreign welfare NOT foreign aid, what a joke. Santorum gets burned in this exchange with Paul.

  • What a bunch of fucking hypocritical, religious idiots.

    OH NO WE CAN'T CUT MONEY TO ISRAEL WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE IT'S THERE SO THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS CAN HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @vielbosheit - dumb observation - be smarter

  • @mollkatless I don't think you should be telling people to "be smarter" if you're the type of individual who judges someone else's intelligence based on which aspect of a YouTube video they decide to comment on.

  • Gawd, she's stoopid! ...and so is the person who told her to wear that horribly blinding white jacket! lol...please, Bachmann, just shut the fuck up!

  • ok two this I going to say is fuck Israel..... Israel does shit for the US. How about EU and UK? shit I think we done far more for the US than Israel.

  • wow... Now Michelle Bachmann is stealing stuff from Donald Trump. If you listen to anything Trump says (check out his youtube page) all he talks about is having countries reimburse the US for the liberations. Get your own material Bachmann.

  • Reimburse, are you kidding me? The Iraqis and Libyans didn't ask for the us to"liberate them" Oh yeah they owe us so much for the many thousands of men, women and children we bombed as they slepted! The only country who needs to pay us back is ISRAEL! Ron Paul is the only candidate like always who makes any sense in these debates!

  • Comment removed

  • Israel is NOT our friend, they are just taking advantage of our military til we go broke. Would israel come and defend us if we were attacked by some foreign countries and needed help? NO FUCKING WAY.

  • People WAKE THE FUCK UP. Vote RON PAUL. Michelle Bauchman, "We need to look to Iraq for reimbursement for liberating them" Iraqi's fucking HATE us! Our military being there has caused the deaths of over 500,000 INNOCENT civilians. And your saying they should REIMBURSE US?? People... are you really that fucking stupid? Listen to the soldiers! Listen to ADAM VS THE MAN. Listen to IVAW (Iraqi veterans against the war) We have caused nothing but pain and suffering in Iraq! Wake up people!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I keep waiting for Michelle Bachman to add a "doncha know" at the end of a sentence like someone else she reminds us of.

  • Michelle Bachmann should reimburse us for the brain cells we lost listening to her. The media should make her the oddball out of the group, instead of Romney.

  • Iraq should reimburse us for "liberating" them? Haha.  Oh wait you're serious, let me laugh louder.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­!!!!!!!!!!!

  • To have themselves declared a state without going through the proper channels? WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT RICK?? The UN **IS** the proper channel for that!

  • not only did Reagan negotiate with terrorist, but also brought millions of KILOS OF COCAINE INTO THIS COUNTRY IN THE PROCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did Santorum really bring up IRAN-CONTRA??????? Iran was an ENEMY at the time we made the deal with them, which in its self under the embargos in place at the time, was a CRIME!!!!!!! Ron Paul can really be a snake when he nneds to. in a good way.

  • What do we do if the Iraqis and Libyans decide they don't owe us anything? Politely leave a bill at the door?

  • Using American soldiers as their auxiliaries in the Middle East is all the aid Israel needs.

  • Liberated Iraq? woman, what the hell do you smoke?

  • Has Israel ever done anything for the US?

  • Man Ron Paul has guts man I respect that guy!

  • @afg96 - respect him all you want - just don't waste a vote on him

  • @mollkatless why?

  • @afg96 - to begin with you live in canada so you can't vote here anyway. If you did live here, and voted for paul it would be a wasted vote. He will not win, he won't win the primary, he would have almost no appeal to independents and conservative dems - obama would beat him easily, and we don't need four more years of obama

  • @mollkatless Well that is true I do live in Canada but I never said I would vote since I can't. I just support him any way I can. I think that Rick Perry and Romney are both NWO operatives and they are just like Obama. Also Herman Cain is a black racist who hates on Muslims for now reason. I mean what is his problem? Did he forgot where he come form? He should STFU and know that he has his slave masters last name Cain. Who will you vote for?

  • Over 100,000 Iraqi civilians have died since the war started, and Bachman seriously has the audacity to want them to repay us? I'm speechless.

  • @Davidace327 I was thinking the same thing!

  • Israel doesn't need our foreign aid. Paul is right.

  • why do the Palestinians have to "be approved" to be a sovereign nation?

  • @imthebigbadwolf because they live in other sovereign nations

  • Completely agree with Perry on cutting funding to the U.N.

  • "Reimbursed by Iraq and Libya" Are you fucking kidding me? These places are dirt poor as shit and war torn like crazy. The last thing that they're concerned about (or even having the capacity to do) is "reimbursing" the U.S.

  • oh yeah, which one of the 4 million displaced iraqis are going to donate to reimburse the contract killers? so sickening, can't believe the crowd, must be a buncha plants

  • Around 4:00 mark, did Bachmann make an implicit argument for imperialism?

  • @palatiality Yes but is anyone REALLY listening to Santorum? ( :

  • USA gave Israel more than 4 TRILLION DOLLARS FOR FREE.

    Did Other Non-jewish Nations In The Middle East & Elsewhere Get That??

    Israel Receives Ships Full Of Weapons, Weapon Delivery Systems, Aircrafts, Wmd's, Chemical Weapons (phosphorus Bombs, Napalm, Depleted Uranium) And Biological Weapons (nerve Agents, Toxins, Sarin Gas) And Nuclear Weapons, From USa & EU

    Israel Makes USA/EU Support The Blockade & Death Of Concentration Camp Gaza & Illegal Settlements Taking Over Concentration Camp West Bank

  • Defund the UN???? WHAT?

  • Israel our greatest ally? No, China is our greatest ally. Israel can go fuck itself.

  • How can everyone except Ron Paul say "lets TAX TAX TAX and give it to Israel" then act like they are conservative? What the heck is conservative about taxing the American people into oblivion to hand free money to Israel or any other country? How about Israel tax it's own people and give us the money!

  • @midtra52 hell yes! i agree exactly

  • we need to start growing local gardens for the starving here in America stop the corporate control of our food!!!! in my small county 1 in 5 people are starving... these are desperate times we need to make use of our lands and another market we could have is trading HEMP it is not a drug please people Jack Herer's book The Emperor Wears No Clothes is a great educational read you can find it online and info here on youtube! please educate youself

  • Ron Paul and Rick Perry are lefties ! Japan pays tans of money to have the U.S military stay to protect from China and North Korea! Remember we didn't ask them and you wanted to. Japan will be independent and kick America out ?

    I tell you, China has a plan to take over the world and then what happen. Ron should go back to old folks house and Perry can go with him!

  • If you think we should be paying foriegn aid your ARE A BRAINWASHED IDIOT! Why the hell should money coming out of my paycheck go to a rich asshole leader in another country, go away Bachman friggin RINO.

  • who are these moronic people clapping a jeering in the audiance - God help America if they are genuine people - idiot morons if they are real people its no wonder people like cain and romney get votes ffs IMBECILES

  • Ron Paul know's the way.

  • Let Ron Paul cook!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Yeah, thats right Santorum you pussy, just call every body a criminal at GITMO cause somebody else said so....fuckin moron!

  • The audience didn't like Ron Paul saying that those at Gitmo weren't terrorists did they. They haven't been tried?! How would we like it if another country called you a terrorist, snatched you up and indefinitely locked you up without ever giving you a trial. I think most people would have a problem with that.

  • Comment removed

  • Bachmann is still running?

  • i did not expect perry say defund the united nations, thats pretty awesome go perry kudos~

  • Wait, is Bachmann suggesting the Iraqis and Libyans pay us for bombing them? And they call Paul a loony...

  • Ha ha Classic,peewee Herman cain said hostages at Guantanamo bay LOL Plus RON PAUL is Kicking their asses all over the place.

  • Iraq needs to "reimburse" us for what we did, Michele? So you're saying that you want them to kill roughly 1 million American citizens to level the playing field, because that's exactly what we did to them!

  • Damn Zionists. Gotta play to the Jew vote by saying you love Israel, right cowards?! Fuck em. Let them fend for themselves!!!

  • I cant imagine anyone voting for these clueless idiots

  • Herman Cain said there are hostages in Guantanamo Bay!!!!

  • Ron Paul is the ONLY person on this panel with any semblance of sense. The rest of them are a bunch of myopic buffoons. This is an embarrassment. The LAST thing the u.s. should be doing is sending money to those big-nosed terrorist Jew bastards.

  • Ron Paul asked a powerful question at the end there about the double standards in negotiating with terrorists.

  • As with much else in the debate, Ron Paul is the only candidate who makes any sense to the GOP & Dems alike. On foreign aide, the rest here & in the White House are blatant militarists & empire builders who are controlled & financed by the profiteering international banking & corporate monopolies. The FED cannot be reformed, it must be eliminated & Ron Paul is the one that will do it. America needs to wake up to the Occupy movements & the increasing world wide demand for economic justice.

  • My apologies, but americans are idiots.

    I cant believe that there still people out there thinking that USA loans money to other countries.

    Thats a lie. Huge lie.. IMF and FED are the problem.

    Its sad to see that USA constitution, which I always admired is now goin down the drain.

    Americans need to wake up.

    Ron Paul is the only hope we have left, if he doesnt get elected perhaps we deserve to suffer for 4 more years.

    If he doesnt get elected Im moving to Canada or Brazil.

  • FUCKING SANTORUM DICKED STFU AND LET HIM SPEAK!

  • Comment removed

  • Since wen did Israel become are top ally? We need Germany as are top ally and Japan! .

  • Grandpa Ron on fire....ha,ha,ha...with Regan and Iranians he just knock this bunch of dolls down on the ground.

  • Isn't UK the U.S's biggest ally?, I don't remember Israel sending troops to go into Iraq or Afghanistan. You guys have got to stop sucking off Israel all the time, the biggest damn terrorists in the world. Why the hell do they need foreign aid, they have they're own economy they are not a 3rd world nation, they are stealing land and killing people with the money you give them! damn idiots, LOOK AT THE PEOPLE CLAPPING IN THE AUDIENCE, MY GOD YOU AMERICANS, GOD REALLY DOES NEED TO HELP YOU GUYS

  • @hasj2 Considering all the massive anti-Americanism over here in the UK, sadly, no, I don't think we can necessarily be counted on by the US, these days.

  • Every Candidate But Ron Paul is stupid, misleading, war mongering, lying, cliche, policy changing, imbeciles!

    Saying that Israel is Americas greatest ally is ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS, it only takes a little bit of research to realise that Israel has done nothing but damage to the United States. Why are people so stupid! It baffles me..

  • Cut funding towards Israel NOW. They do NOTHING for us. We're broke. We need to stop treating other countries like our children by giving them what you could call allowances and fund OUR PEOPLE so we can have MORE JOBS to help out OUR NATION!!! Do they borrow money to help us? and if you say yes, do they go bankrupt to do so? We have and it's about damn time it STOPPED!!!

    America is a "ship with a hole in it" and Ron Paul will be the one to "point the SHIP in the right direction!"

  • how is Israel our greatest ally?

    why not countries in Europe or Japan? or for that matter, we have so discombobulated the economy, it would almost perversely be China that serves as our greatest "partner!" how does Israel figure into all this?

  • @qncsc I guess, because more Europeans countries have begun looking to China. The Europeans know that the time of the American Empire is at an end. The US have no money and they still keep spending - I agree with Ron Paul, you should stop having all those bases around the World. Close bases, and spend money differently, and look at your country instead - spend the money on your country. Your biggest weakness is the border between the US and Mexico.

  • @qncsc heard of Zionist gov't?

  • @qncsc Don't you know that Jesus Christ (second coming) will save Christian politicians... from the rapture only if Israel is in Jewish hands when the apocalypse comes. Israel is also a nuke platform against the soviets exactly like Cuba was for them during and after the cold war. Oh almost forgot, how silly of me... even if Israel is a parasite for America (6 million dollars a day), they are the ones who give the most funds to elect their puppet politifcians into your White House.

  • @qncsc Israel is a hero in the middle east of upholding democratic values. 

  • @qncsc they don't, its the jewish controlled media that has brainwash the people of the of this country into believing the lie, why does our greatest ally spy on us more than our enemies?

  • @qncsc israel steals us military technology and selling it china, jews are good but isreal is just like every other country 

  • If Israel is our greatest ally shouldn't they be giving us foreign aid? lol

  • bachmann a fool cut all aid to israel

  • I don't agree with Ron Paul on many issue, but kudos to him for mentioning the fact that Reagan negotiated with terrorists.

  • why fubnding UN?

  • fuk isreal  go palestine

  • de fund UN

    awesome

  • Gingrich is clearly the most experienced, with the most knowledge of the issues, and he's tough enough to say things how they are. The best man in the debate, hands down. The best choice.

  • bachman needs to get her dumbass in the kitchen, CUT BACK ON FORIEGN AID, this dumb bitch needs to fucking kill over, dumb bitch!

  • fuck romney stupid dumbfuck!

  • wow, rick perry, "de -funding united nations" rick perry you got my props! man good response but still RON PAUL 2012

  • Bachman wants Iraq to compensate America for its "Liberation" LOL

  • Ron Paul RULES!!!!

  • When it comes to BRAIN POWER, Rick Perry is George W’s twin!!!

  • NVM I LIKE RON PAUL'S THEORY BETTER CUT AID TO ISRAEL!!!!

  • All these Fing war mongers put their asses on the front line and marky my words the wars would end tomorrow. Israel our friends. They are the very reason why all the arab countries hate us. They terrorize Palestenian people and they occupy Palestenian land. We send them money so they can terrorize some more. You wonder why the world hates us?? WHo are these morons in this crowd clapping. You morons are the reason why the world hates us and we are 15 trillion in debt.

  • Listen to Cain....what a cunt! He says you need to clarify who your friends are, peace through strength, stop giving money to your enemies, surround yourself with smart people ( from another speach) ...it's all platitudes and sound bite BS! 999? WTF!

  • I LIKE RICK PERRYS THOUGHT THO, STOP GIVING AID TO THE U.N

  • What the fuck has Israel done for us lately?

  • @pennjersey83 Nothing. The only reasons we support them is because the Jewish-American population is such a strong political force and because they are also a wedge in the Mid East. Without them we have no true allies in the region. I support a Palestinian state all the way.

  • When was the last war that Israel was sending troops to help out my brothers and sisters in the armed forces of the US?

  • @EKLLC Good question...I'll answer that for you...never. They do however love to attack you and try and blame it on someone else....remember the USS Liberty. The Lavon Affair...and we can't forget the Israeli Mossad agents celebrating the attacks on 9/11 and the van with more Israelis driving around with explosives in NY in 9/11....hmmm, wonder what the explosives were for?

  • This Israel worship by the republicunts is sickening.

  • @Solaris2291 It's not just the Republicorps...the democrats are just as bad. They all want AIPAC'S money...and they are willing to say whatever and do whatever they think that Israel wants for it....even if that means paying for your friendship with them in blood and treasure.

  • isreal is our greatest ally? are you fucking retarded? did they barrow money from china? no we did,,, did isreal go into iraq or afganistan or libya or wherever the hell else we are in africa? this bitch is ignorant or stupid

  • @3:32 How exactly is Israel our greatest ally? If by taking the most of our money to fend off countries we send slightly less money while giving un-christian Christians the tools to limit freedom through the old testament means they are our greatest ally, then yup Israel is our greatest ally. If we go by what Israel actually gives us in a mutually beneficial relationship......nothing. They give us nothing.

  • The media, and "pollsters", and those who make predictions and build candidate popularity should read the comments on this debate video.. Dont actually watch the debates because it is mostly the same old trash.. but just notice.. There is not a single positive comment for anyone other than Ron Paul. I think that is pretty accurate with how Americans feel. He isnt perfect, nor his policies Im sure, but atleast he is honest with us. We APPRECIATE that.

  • @MrRedwings80 - I have personally made comments for someone else, and seen them in other debate videos as well. So that isn't entirely accurate, nor are the numbers that come and post here necessarily an indication. Gingrich is far more sensible overall for the nation. Yes, Paul is honest - always thought so. Yes, great fiscally, and Constitutionally. However, he's VERY weak on defense and foreign issues. That weakness is why he never gets elected. Other areas, I really like him.

  • Look at Ron Pauls reaction as they align their shadowed opinions up towards his level of understanding. His facial expression is like, *heph - Lying deceiver's!*

    If Ron was absent from these debates, who knows what they would be discussing at this point. Their love for Obama care?

  • I still dont understand why Israel is our greatest allies... didnt they capture some US hostages back in the 70's?

  • Ron Paul is the only one being real about everything. The media here in Houston doesnt even show him on the news and hes from texas.. Shame on us.. Ron Paul for president 2012!! I have to watch him on youtube if I miss the debate.

  • Sorry, but I'm not sure I understand why the US send money to Israel anyway.

    Is America the kid at school who has to pay the other kids to be friends?

  • i liked how he threw in the the people from Guantanamo are not terrorists - we haven't convicted them of anything. yikes!

  • ronnie aint getting any Jew money for his campaign...lolz, that's why he can't win...unless we deport the wallstreet jews, soros

  • Mitt, Perry and Cain are the top tier and the least conservative in the bunch.

  • @defgill Cain is a flip flopping and/or liar. Hes got tea party support (which says enough), but hes too much of a looney to gain national acceptance.

    Romney, Perry, and Paul are the true top tier conservatives.

  • @IndianPrince04 You may be right. Paul is probably the most conservative fiscally speaking but for social conservatives it's between Romney and Perry.

  • @defgill Fuck Romney and Perry, Ron Paul is the only true patriot!

  • @McCullough227 True that! But he needs social conservatives to come to his side also. And don't go bashing religion if you reply because I'm for liberty and I'm a Catholic and an independent conservative. Morality, like Santorum says, also needs to be looked at (starting at the family and moral values)

  • @IndianPrince04 - As a Tea Party type, I don't want Cain, OR Romney, or Perry, or really, Paul, though any of them would get my support over Cain. The one I like best is Gingrich, followed by Santorum. Cain isn't honest, as you say, and neither are Perry and Romney. Paul is great on some issues, weak on others. Gingrich has the experience, the knowledge, and the grit to get the job done right, and Santorum would make a great running mate.

  • Americans don't want the truth because the truth hurts. Keep believing this neo con fantasy it will do nothing, but destroy the country.

  • ...she wants to get reimbursed for liberating Iraq... what a complete moron. yeah, come to Canada - based on lies, then bomb the crap out of my home, hurt my children, rape our women, poison our lands, steal our resources - and then FORCE me to pay the fucking bill! What a fucking monkey.

  • Love Ron Paul's reaction 2:14: they doesn't cut jack shit hahahah (that's what he is thinking)

  • "hostages in guantanamo bay".......freudian slip Cain?

  • Its amazing how even Ron has to dance around the Aid to Isreal question, although I know he really wants to say "Fuck No!"

  • Ron Paul knows wtf he is talking about. everyone else is talking straight up bs. and Romney is playing middle man and just saying what we want to hear. and all you who actually believe 100 hundred percent of this bs are fucking idiots. you want proof. look at all the fuckign idiots who where on the obama ban wagon. look at all the bush fuckers who where on that band wagon. those two said so much shit. what did they actually accomplish?
