what Ron Paul should have said to Rudy re: 9-11 statement
"I'll retract my statement when you stop cynically exploiting that tragedy to help your political cause..."

Ron Paul had said that 9-11 happened because of US interventionist policy in the middle east and Rudy took umbrage in his showboating fashion...

5. Don't call him that
He certainly doesn't deserve that sort of respect.

6. Does Rudy Support Torture?
What the heck did he mean, by allowing interrogators to use "any technique they know"

7. Ron Paul should have come back strong...
...but he didn't. He should have elaborated on what the CIA says about blowback. He should have raised his voice like Guiliani did and presented facts. He didn't, so Guiliani made him look back and the Fox pundits are already vouching for him to leave.

8. Yeah but who is winning the Fox pole ?
Rudy didn't answer Paul's response, which was really a history lesson. Rudy just pulled his pecker out and beat Paul over the head with it for effect...which then got all the mouth breathing wingnut knuckle draggers excited. Again... who won the Fox pole....

9. Torture? Do you mean "enhanced techniques"?
That's the new crock of crap buzz word.

10. Even though Ron was right
He put himself in a position to be spanked by Giuliani and the other candidates.
