Obviously Lew agrees that this was a legitimate concern (even if he won't admit it) if he felt the need to "clarify" on his blog. And the Guardian isn't some MSM outlet - they employ Glenn Greenwald for example and regularly cover anti-Empire topics
Ron Paul has never had theocratic beliefs. He is religious, but he believes in religious freedom and tolerance. Gary North, on the other hand, thinks homosexuals and pornographers should be executed.
You clearly didn't read the part where he says he wants to create a "political order" with no religious liberty for anyone who isn't Christian. Or you just have no ability to comprehend what you read.
Oh please. Freedom of speech means I can also call out Gary for his views, and Ron for giving them a platform. If a Neo-Nazi was playing a large role in the Ron Paul curriculum, would you wave away concerns with "well, that's free speech for you?"
And Ron's hands-off approach to things that use...
True, I'm waiting to see how it turns out. But North was the guy they used for the video announcement, implying that he has an important position. I can almost guarantee you that between him and Woods (a devout Catholic, though a good scholar and not a theocrat like North), the kids will be...
"So let us be blunt about it: we must use the doctrine of religious liberty to gain independence for Christian schools until we train up a generation of people who know that there is no religious neutrality, no neutral law, no neutral education, and no neutral civil government. Then they will...
It also promises religious, anti-science BS out of the mouth of Gary North, who thinks the Old Testament should be law. Ron Paul has made another mistake lining up beside a complete loon
It was Stossel saying good stuff but much too passive-agressively as usual, and O'Reilly revealing his own ignorance.
"He'd let Iran get nuclear weapons!!!!!"
O'Reilly also seemed mean-spirited. Like he was out to crush Ron
^No shit? You mean they don't want to admit that they had been sharing a neighborhood with a mass-murderer and the world's most wanted man?
The Pakistanis hate America. They are the most anti-American country in the region. Now, they may have some very good reasons too, but they will go out of...
Wouldn't this raid be justified under the 2001 authorization of force (that RP voted for)? It gave the Prez authority to go after anyone responsible for the attacks
I agree this was a mistake. He should really consider the consequences of what he's saying.
He's also making himself seem ignorant. The "consensus" is that Pakistanis can't be fully trusted (whether that is true or not) and his answer is that he would basically rely on the Pakistani's.
How...
