You don't know what Paul would do with the military? You seem to know his policy position on 1001 other things, but not on the military? GZ™

Andrew Sullivan points out the expected smearing of Ron Paul is well underway....Perhaps it would be a good exercise for all of us to quote candidates on what they actually said..not on what we think they meant or wished they had said..or how we think people must have heard what was said.....Its easy in this day and age to get actual transcripts and text.. _______________________________________ Smearing Paul 18 May 2007 11:21 am This dialogue between John Gbson and Michelle Malkin actually takes it as a premise that Ron Paul stated that Bush knew about 9/11 in advance. Here's Gibson: According to a recent Rasmussen Report poll, 35 percent of Democrats think President Bush knew about the 9/11 attacks beforehand. The so-called 9/11 Truth Movement has already infected people like Rosie O'Donnell and one in three Democrats, and many other people, Americans evidently, including Congressman Ron Paul. How on earth did Gibson get that from the debate on his own cable channel? Here is Malkin: I'm glad that this moment provided great TV for FOX News — it was a very instructive exchange — but Ron Paul really has no business being on stage as a legitimate representative of Republicans, because the 9/11 truth virus is something that infects only a very small proportion of people that would identify themselves as conservative or Republican. And as you say, John, this is far more prevalent, this strain of 9/11 truth virus, on the left, and in much of the mainstream of the Democratic Party as that Rasmussen poll showed. Gibson and Malkin owe Paul an apology. They are knowingly smearing under the guise of journalism. andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com
