It really bugs me that one of the fiscally-responsible, libertarian Republicans in Congress is this wacky. Perhaps with the breed being so rare, it is more subject to anomalies? Like albino pandas?

Don't look now, but Paul's son, Rand, is running for the Senate in Tennesee......
And he is just as screwy as his dad.

That video shows nothing. He's leaving some sort of auditorium space, he's tired, there's some loud music blaring, and he may not even know what the question is supposed to mean. There are reasonable questions about 9/11, the commission, the not-under-oath testimony of Bush (who wouldn't appear without Cheney), the various intelligence agencies, what they knew etc. RP may have thought that's what she's asking about. Who knows? There's no way to tell from that brief video.

Ya gotta love how these truthers rise do the defense of Ron Paul by insisting that he isn't one of them. How this man for whom they'd crawl through broken glass and bear his love-children is technically a "sheeple".

It's funnier still how they don't recognize what they're saying before, or even after, they say it.

It appears that I must withdraw this statement. I have read over all four of your posts and it appears you are not a quite a truther. I apologize for the confusion.

My beliefs about Ron Paul remain, however. Despite the loud music and distractions you referred to, he obviously picked up the first question (about the IMF and the Fed) quite easily. I doubt he suddenly had a hearing failure in that environment that was coincidentally timed with the 9/11 twoof question. His answer to that question makes perfect sense in context as well.

His answer was also almost exactly what we hear from the twoofers who post here when we ask them why don't they do something about it. Either it's too much hassle, or its too hard or there's no point in bringing it up with prosecutors and law enforcement who work for the government or their are washing their hair that night or some other lame excuse.

Ron Paul is just as paranoid, divorced from reality and downright chicken@#$% as his tinfoiler followers.

RP just wants troofers to continue throwing money at Campaign for Liberty and thinking he's a double-secret troofer and can't admit to the troof right now... which gets Paul heaps of admiration when it would get anyone else a preemptive conviction for treason that would be enforced if the revolution ever happens. A good politician never cuts ties with a reliable fundraising outlet. Pretty much every time I've heard Paul on Alex Jones, he answers the nuttier stuff that AJ throws out with similarly crafted placating non-answers and tries to pull it back to "the Fed sucks" and "Campaign for Liberty needs your money!"
