I tuned into this show about half-way into it and they were talking about putting in a “Garden of Forgiveness” at the site of the twin towers in New York. They talked to number of women, I believe three, who lost family members that day and back the idea of this garden. I would love to know the party affiliation of these women. One of them happens to mention war among a number of things that occur because of our lack of forgiveness. Gee, do ya’ think she might be talking about the Iraq War? And then it gets really outrageous when the story moves to Lebanon(Hezbollah Central) and shows a “Garden of Forgiveness” being constructed there. The woman behind the construction has the gall to talk about how the hard feelings of Muslims have to do with unresolved anger over the Crusades. Aaaaargh!!!! I suppose you are now going to tell me that Muslims never invaded lands before that and forced people to convert, you stupid bitch! Just remember, when you see this kind of leftwing, just love the terrorists, kind of garbage on television, its your tax money that is paying for it.






Well this is an old blog post, but I found it randomly through Google so here’s a response in defense of Ron Paul’s position.
According to this article from Fox News - http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,85446,00.html
“…the presence of American forces here has long been an irritant for Saudi rulers facing strong anti-American sentiment among a growing and increasingly restive population. Fifteen of the 19 alleged Sept. 11 hijackers were Saudis, and Saudi-born Osama bin Laden cites the U.S. military presence in his homeland as a reason for his hatred of America.”
Even if our troops were there at the invitation of the Saudi government, it well-known that their government does not represent the will of the people. Apparently Bin Laden perceived our presence there as an occupation.
Also, Ron Paul votes against every appropriations bill. However, because his district is paying loads of taxes, just like every other district, it is Ron Paul’s duty to represent his constituents and try to get some of that money back in the form of earmarks. If Ron Paul did not submit the earmarks, that money, which has already been appropriated, would be taken by an earmark for another district or just spent without oversight by the Executive branch.
