jumping to negative conclusions about "the way he thinks" by declining to differentiate between non-interventionists and blame-America-firsters. That's an excellent and very important point. Those two attitudes are very different. I'd take it a step further - "blame-America-firsters" in a free America have as much right to speak their minds as anyone else. I have no problem with that. It is another issue that such opinions should not be left unchallenged. And indeed, the line between the "b-A-f'rs" and "Blowback" theorists is so thin as to be just about non-existent. Rep. Ron Paul so far appears to be in rather questionable company on this important and revealing issue. There's no way of telling short of a greater explanation from Paul just what he thinks. Yes, he should speak on this subject. It will keep coming up anyway. Maybe he is having too much fun with the TV shows and with fund raising... doesn't want to rock the boat for now. That, actually would be pretty smart on his part - in any case... :)
