Official CNN Tea Party Express Debate Thread

[phill4paul]

Ron defending the palestinian criminals? Ummm? I hate AIPAC but the Palestinians aren't innocent either.

Umm. No. Are you watching the same debate?

 

[speciallyblend]

perry co-ops bring them home haha

 

[Napoleon's Shadow]

Sadly, we just lost the election.

Not at all. In fact this just lit things up!

 

[wstrucke]

Paul should say women's rights are crucial in a free society that treats individuals equally, but there is ALWAYS a feel-good pretense for continued occupation.

He might say that if they asked him a damned question.

Why this individual still isn't banned, at least for tonight?!

tea-o-cons

Do you know how corrupt the PLO is? I'd boo as well. Ron answered the question masterfully until he started defending the Palestinians.

 

[IterTemporis]

People are so ignorant, it is just amazing..

How dare they boo him..

 

[cucucachu0000]

Sadly, we just lost the election.

wasnt that said last time he did the same thing? polls have been jumping ever since.

Ron not very good at articulating it to the dumb ass public... He needs to fix his suit... and wear a decent tie too.

All you have to do is ask the foreign citizens of foreign countries what they think of the occupying, the force government changes, the bombing killing and destroying of nations.

Almost all of them want us out of their nation... hell 75% of the Japanese people want us out of their country and that's an ally for 50 years.

 

[Chieppa1]

If they hated us because we are free and rich, why don't they hate Switzerland?

 

[pauliticalfan]

Frothy shouldn't even be on that stage.

Ron defending the palestinian criminals? Ummm? I hate AIPAC but the Palestinians aren't innocent either.

He didn't say that. He specifically said that it wasn't he who believed this, it was Bin Laden, and we need to know the reasoning behind 9/11.

 

[anaconda]

Did ya see Santorum gesture towards Ron, shake his head, and mutter repeatedly out loud: "Ron Paul, Ron Paul,..."

 

[belian78]

Wow.. I'm truly stunned by the party that I associate myself with just to vote for Ron. Last debate they nearly fell over themselves to ovate Perry when he talked about straight up excuting people. Tonight, they boo a man that speaks about wanting to know the motivations behind a problem in order to solve it. I'm truly stunned and ashamed.

 

[Tim724]

sheesh, that got heavy....not sure how it will play out. Dr Paul did go a little far quoting Bin Laden as if it is Bin Laden's wisdom we need to follow.

 

[afwjam]

Ron defending the palestinian criminals? Ummm? I hate AIPAC but the Palestinians aren't innocent either.

Ron did not defend them, he was stating Osama bin ladens reasons for attacking us, the very concept the CIA confirmed.

 

[MRK]

Sadly, we just lost the election.

Give me a break. There was nothing wrong with what Paul said. Just some people booing every few seconds to make him look bad before he could finish his statement, where he was of course again limited to 30 seconds, while Flip Romney and Pricey Perry get endless rebuttals back and forth without even being prompted until they are out of breath .

 

[silentshout]

Well, the idiots booing him are wrong, wrong, wrong.

 

[jumpyg1258]

If they hated us because we are free and rich, why don't they hate Switzerland?

That was my exact thinking of what Ron should have came out with.

 

[scootman369]

Paul gave a very good and articulate response. If the audience simply accept that their spoon fed reality about how the evil Muslims attacked us because they are free and can't accept other alternatives, then that's their own problem.
