Bachmann Says Ron Paul Would Be a ‘Dangerous’ President

Bachmann Says Ron Paul Would Be a Dangerous President

Republican candidate for president Texas Rep. Ron Paul took shots at rival candidates Rick Santorum and Michele Bachmann Friday, telling Jay Leno that the Minnesota congresswoman “hates muslims.”

Bachmann has responded with accusations of her own directed at Paul, saying that his presidency would be “very dangerous” considering the congressman’s foreign policy views.

She delivered some harsh rhetoric, saying, unlike Paul, she would not “wait for the United States to have a city taken out by a nuclear weapon.” Here‘s video of Bachmann’s remarks from an interview with CBS News/National Journal’s Rodney Hawkins:

      That’s right, Woods. Bachmann and Santorum are off my list because of their determination to keep our troops in danger for the same old tired unreason used by Bush and those who must have a vested interest (or big stock holdings) in military intervention.

      People are waking up to the Global Elite and their Military / Industrial Complex.

      Watch this 13 minute Video to learn the TRUTH about the middle east.
      This explains Ron Paul’s foreign policy and his knowledge about middle-eastern history, and why anyone else like Bachmann, who is a global elite minion, Neo-Con progressive and a ex-federal tax attorney, should not be President.
      If she is not a minion with an agenda, then the only other explanation is that she really is ignorant, and bereft of any history of middle eastern foreign policy.

      This is a MUST SEE / MAKE VIRAL video to wake people up !!!!!

      I said this 2 days ago on another blog, guess it was a perfect inditement of the Warmongering Bachman:

      Some might say, “What will you do if Iran gets a Nuclear Weapon”? I say “I will fear no evil: for thou art with me.”

      War mongering in the form of juxaposing massive American death with say Ron Paul’s stance not to “Presume Guilty until Proven Innocent”, is a form of terrorism. Those that want us to visualize a nuclear mushroom cloud rising on an American city are spreading Terror and Fear.

      In that fear is CONTROL. Look at what control we allowed you “representatives” to give up in fear after 9/11, look at all the Liberty we gave up.

For someone who claims to be a devout Christian, why do you have no faith in God. The bible has told us many times that Israels enemies will rise and surround her. It also says that none shall conqueror her, for the Lord thy God will smitten any who oppose her. Do you really believe God would allow Iran to get a Nuclear Bomb much less use it on the nation of Israel. You are all being deceived by Satan to continue his evil ways. Trust in the Lord Michelle, he never fails. If we don’t fix America folks there will no longer be any freedom left on the planet. The shining city on the hill is on fire and no one seems to care except Ron Paul. Fix America first then we can worry about the rest of the world. Ron Paul has my support and my vote.

      …For years the Republican presidential candidate referred to herself as “Dr. Michele Bachmann.” The problem? She’s not a doctor. And that’s not the only detail from her past that Bachmann has — to put it charitably — trouble remembering. It seems, at least, that some of the things Bachmann tells people about herself conflict with what reporters have found when fact-checking the statements…
      Seems she’s quite the habitual liar! This article also nicely debunks other things she has lied about, like:

      * Being a tax litigation attorney
      * Descending from a long line of Iowa prairie teachers
      * Being in charge of 23 foster kids at once

      There is absolutely no way a republican like her, who has lied so much, can ever trump Obama in the general election. She has so many lies under the rug that the Liberal media will use against her.

He has an administration with no leadership (or he agrees with their ignorance), just like ron paul has a newsletter with no leadership (or he agrees with their ignorance).

    America can be guaranteed that if ron paul were elected president (which thankfully will never happen) that within 18 months of his election the US would experience a nuclear detonation within our border. That is assured, because he is incapable of leading on foreign policy.

    Now, the most significant issue. ron paul childishly believes that the entire world functions with the same core values as the USA. They don’t! He is simply too dumb to comprehend that. For instance, in the Middle East a cultural imperative is lying. It is expected in all business dealings. If you don’t lie, You WILL be taken advantage of even to the extent of being annihilated. ron paul does not get that concept. He simple does not comprehend the culture. Another cultural norm; In the Middle East death has more value than life. That is why they so easily persuade people to commit suicide. The US media foolishly believe the suicide bombers are willing to die because they have nothing to loose. That is faulty logic. They are willing to die because they millenia old culture teaches them that death holds more value than life. ron paul is too stupid to comprehend that reality. He is a

We give them money, we sell them weapons, we train their troops and guess what they use all of that against us. The United States Government is our worst enemy. If we stopped financially supporting these people and stopped buying their oil guess what the problem would dissolve. Is Radical Islam evil, absolutely, they have been killing each other off for centuries. As for the Muslims that are here in this country, are there good ones Yes, are there bad ones Yes. I have many clients that are good Muslims and have assimilated into our society. They are afraid to speak out against the bad ones because they know the bad ones are supported by our own Government.

      JEFFERSON, you sound like a PaulBot. Ron Paul has some very questionable (to say the least) items in his newsletters, of which he claims he himself is the editor. Check out http://www.weeklystandard.com/articles/company-ron-paul-keeps_613474.html regarding the racism allegations. The Weekly Standard is hardly the MSM and not at all leftist.

      I understand PaulBots. Ron Paul puts himself out there as some total iconoclast, ready for minimalist government and neo-isolationism to reduce the load on the U.S. economy. And yet, he is completely unprepared and clueless of what it takes for the U.S. to function in a global economy. He is clueless regarding the international challenges the U.S. faces or, for that matter, what it takes to keep the U.S. united.

      Regarding Israel, pro-Israel folks don‘t have a huge problem with Paul’s stand on cutting all foreign aid, including Israel. The U.S. benefits at least as much as Israel out of that arrangement, including battle testing, intelligence updates, and system improvements. The problem with Paul re:Israel is that Paul continues to blame Israel for the jihad against the U.S., including 9/11, and that Paul remains determinedly ignorant on the threat of Iran. Ron Paul is the most effective apologist for the Islamist Republic of Iran in the U.S. today!

      You must be a Progressive bot also known as useful idiot by your communist overlords. 

      Ron Paul has clearly explained he did not write those comments nor does he support them. Be honest about that. 

      The Weekly Standard is Bill Krystal’s rag that is Pro Intervention. The Weekly Standard is for MORE Government both in fiscal areas and in foreign areas. More Government equals Progressive. 

      Ron Paul believes like the Constitution in the least intervention by Government, both domestically and foreign, the better. Ron Paul would restore economic prosperity for the USA. 

      As for Israel, Israel is it’s own country and believes in Self Reliance and Independence. Those wanting to say we must war for Israel are wanting to tell Israel what to do and using her for a scapegoat, neither you do to a friend. 

      Paul blames our intervening in the ‘53 coup of the elected Iranian president and our backing, aiding, and supporting with weapons of Saddam in 80-88 Iran vs Iraq war to be the reason Iran detests America.  

      Ron Paul actually understand jihad, al-Qaeda, is caused by our intervening for Saudi Arabia against our once friend Iraq. He understands meddling around in countries not favorable to us can cause indirect harmful consequences. 

      Would Americans raise up in the name of God if Saudi Arabia was brought in, built a base in Texas and was in charge of protecting our borders? You know they would and therefore should understand jihad….

      I don’t think any good nation can be built and exist outside of Christ, so I do not believe in man made nation building. The assumption that the world can be trusted if you leave it alone is false. It is true that when a mans ways please the Lord, He will make even his enemies to be at peace with him.

      It may not be your assumption, but there are those who think that we, the United States, have brought all our enemies upon ourselves because of our foreign policies or meddling. There are people and cultures that would destroy our country with no rationale or justification. Some have a history of destroying their own.

      Regarding foreign intervention, using our military to police those who are not self policing is a waste. It takes more than a democracy to create freedom. Consider all the tyrants that were voted in.
      There are exceptions when there is virtue in an outside use of force to intervene and protect the innocent from being decimated by the tyrannical, but not indefinitely. The military exists to win the battle, not to police.

      The United States is far from flawless, but still seems to be the country of choice to flee too, not from. But remove the entitlements from being an incentive. “Entitlements”, what a misnomer.

      Does sending troops into Afghanistan, a country which actively harbored and supported terrorists, and deposing their government increase or decrease the capabilities to organize a massive terrorist attack? The guy and his underwear was just one isolated individual. 9/11 was a massive, highly coordinated attack that called for 20 people just to carry it out (though only 19 actually made it onto the planes). Before we invaded Afghanistan, the Taliban sponsored Al-Qaeda was responsible for two embassy bombings (note not military bases), the attack on the Coal, and both WTC attacks. What attacks have they done since other than attacking the troops we sent to stop them.

    That is the foreign policy of Michelle, all the other neo-cons and the big government liberals. Ron Paul stands on the side of peace, prosperity, friendship with all, entangling alliances with none, defensive wars not offensive pre-emptive ones and civil liberties for all. You make the choice….

And won’t work for me – in my ‘olden age’… Have a high school bud who replied to my question: “So, you must be really happy with the prez and his Military actions?” And this friend, Retired Marine, bleeds GOP, responded, “Yes, I think he’s doing a good job in that regard. I am a Neocon and a Warmonger…and I want someone who will toe the line.”

      Of course Bachman would wait until one of our cities were nuked, she would have no choice as the congress would need to declare war to do anything, unless she hold the president can attack who ever they want, when ever they want. If that is the case, then how would she be different then Obama?
      We do not need a king or queen. If Iran is that dangerous, why is she not pushing Obama to take action? None of them are, they are full of it. All talk. We don‘t need to attack anybody and we don’t have the funds to do it. How about gather our forces, re-supply and repair and get some actual, current intel. If they are that worried why haven’t they sent in the seals or CIA to take care of the situation? It is all BS.

    Whose image of Iran aligns most with our own Department of Defense? Paul or Bachmann? Decide for yourself.

    US Department of Defense: “At present Iran‘s forces are sufficent to deter or defend against conventional threats from Iran’s weaker neighbors such as post-war Iraq, the GCC, Azerbaijan or Afghanistan but lack the air power and logistical ability to power much beyond Iran’s boarders or to confront regional powers such as Turkey or Israel.”

    I wish Paul didn’t come off like a wuss or a “blame America” type. He isn’t. His views are consistent and consistently correct. He’s got an image problem on this particular issue though. The press knows it and the other candidates know it. That’s why it is always the focus as he starts to make headway. Regardless, he would make a very interesting and probably great President. Far better than Gingrich or Romney. And the others, regardless of what you think of them, are an even a bigger long-shot than Paul. A vote for Newt of Mitt is just a vote for the status-quo. A somewhat slower version of what we’ve already got. Socialism-lite. If you truly believe in the greatness of what America is SUPPOSED to be, then quit getting scared into voting for the lesser of two evils. Man-up and try to see what a return to actual liberty feels like.

    Dangerous would be to have Michelle Bachmann as a President. She cannot get her facts straight and over reacts constantly. Here are two simple mistakes and there are plenty more. 

    John Wayne wasn’t born in Waterloo. 
    The vaccines don’t cause retardation. 

    She is fear-mongering about Iran and she is for telling Israel what to do, both of which I also cannot support..

    She cannot answer why Iran hasn’t simply bought a Nuke from Russia if they wanted to nuke us. 

    She does not listen to BiBi that Israel wants US to mind our own business and NOT intervene on their behalf. 

    It almost sounds as if Bachmann is using Israel as the scapegoat to go to war with Iran. That is not how you treat your friends. 

    If she was HONEST she would say she doesn‘t like Muslims because she doesn’t and it’s part of her presidential platform. 

    If she was HONEST she would say she doesn‘t like homos because she doesn’t and it’s part of her presidential platform. 

    Over reaction, fear-mongering, scapegoating, and dishonesty is not someone I can vote for. Bachmann is not fit to be President. No way!

      Ron Paul supporters are generally more educated about issues than any other candidate’s supporters. You are certainly free to believe and think what you would like. For me I like to look for a little thing called the TRUTH. That brings me back to Ron Paul time and time again. It is not about the label, it‘s about what’s inside and what’s real. I know that Christians aren’t supposed to want to kill and blow up their enemies- we are to turn the other cheek and LOVE our enemies. Now that would convert Muslims. Drones and Hellfire missiles are NOT going to do it. I want to go back to living in a free country that respects and honors the bill of rights and the rights that were given to us by our Creator. Ron Paul’s supporters are individuals- not a group.

      NEO-Con which means “New Conservative” was used by Democrats for Democrats who joined with Progressive Republicans in support of Intervention in Vietnam. Republicans who support Intervention champion the name even today. 

      Intervention=More Government whether intervening thru welfare or thru military action. 
      Intervention is to the LEFT of the Constitution. 

      As for the Muslim and homos hating of Michelle:

      Her platform for President of the USA is based upon disliking Muslims and Homos. This cannot be denied and anyone doing so is dishonest. 

      Ron Paul’s support of Non-intervention is not weak, it’s secure and will keep us safe. 

      Government intervening in other nation’s problems make us weak and unsafe as well as BROKE. 

      Your support of Intervention puts you to the LEFT of the Constitution. It makes you for MORE Government.

    So, apparently Paul was correct when he claimed that Bachmann hates Muslims. Notice she immediately jumped on the “they’ll blow us up” argument. If we maintain our strategic missile defense program, and keep our navy at home they can’t touch us. Pray those gays away Michelle.

      The world already is Nuclear armed. Pakistan has them, so does North Korea. Arguably the craziest regimes in the world. Pakistan is a suicide bomb away from being controlled by Al Qaeda/Taliban. We are in no way prepared to defend against any attack. When was the last time anybody updated our fallout shelters? When was the last time they were even opened or inspected. Russians last year started to repair and improve theirs.

      True and now look at how we treat Pakistan and North Korea. We treat these regimes as allies or are more lenient when criticizing them for fear of nuclear retaliation. Do you think we would dare sanction a nuclear Iran? Of course not. We don’t sanction NK last time I checked.
