Dr Paul is correct. Let the boat owners install 50 caliber machine guns on their boats, or even 7.62mm M60s, and this problem will be solved in 2 seconds.

Private ship security would be a perfectly good use for those Blackwater guys.

Howdy,

Good video but Congressman Paul looks like a carrot.

Oh it's pathetic. There's always something stupidly wrong with every single video.

 

[Feelgood]

Money bomb for a new video department?

 

[He Who Pawns]

Dr Paul has plenty of cash!

He just needs to get a video nerd in there for a day to get him set up properly.

They an HD camera and some decent lighting.

I posted the video on Liberty Maven and someone just commented with the following:

At about 51 seconds into the video, Paul says, "...remember the foolish attempt (bad video edit attempt here) and Clinton went into Somalia..."

BUSH SR. ORDERED 25,000 TROOPS INTO SOMOLIA DEC,9TH 1992!!! IT WAS BUSH SR.! IT WAS Daddy BUSH!! BUSH SR.!! CLINTON got us out of Somalia!!! GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!! and STOP THE VIDEO EDITING!!

The Campaign for Liberty needs truth and transparency. If you lie about your opponent, you'll only harden your opponent's position. AND THE CAMPAIGN NEEDS ALL THE SUPPORT IT CAN GET! Including Americans who may have supported Clinton and who are currently Democrats. The Campaign can win on the facts! Why pull this political BS!?​

So, is this true?

Feel free to reply to this person:

I think this person is right (partially), but RP wasn't talking about the overall troop deployment. He was talking about the incident that happened there under Clinton's watch following the deployment right? Not sure though...


Enjoy.
