National Intelligence Estimate Shows America Cannot Afford to Make the Same Mistakes with Iran that Were Made With Iraq

Fox News was up to it's old tricks again last week when during the Republican Debates they checked in with their "focus group". This group, we were led to believe, was your basic everyday undecided Republican voter. Interestingly the guy pictured above, went out of his way to call Ron Paul "certifiably insane".

Watching the Republican debate on Fox tonight I was forced to confront this question. Has 7 years of Bush and the Neocons rotted the brains of "conservatives"? The answer is yes.

Anti-war.com's Scott Horton (one of the more informed interviewers) talks with former CIA Bin Laden expert ­Michael Scheuer about the latest Bin Laden tape, Ron Paul, Pakistan and more.

LISTEN

Here is Dr. Paul's appearance with O'reilly.

WATCH

Now I know you thought Fox News was fair and balanced and all. I know you thought Chris Wallace's "marching to the beat of Al Qaeda" editorializing, Hannity's "you made me mad" drivel, Rudy's amplified gigglingand the phony regular folk at the diner bits were innocent enough.

Larry King discuses the latest Bin Laden tape with an expert panel. Michael Scheuer comments on Ron Paul at the very end of this clip stating that all the Democrats and Republicans except Paul are marching to Bin Laden's drum.

 
Ron Paul was on Michael Medved's talk radio show this week. You can listen to the interview HERE, the show date is Aug. 27 2007. (Direct link to mp3 if you cant find it.)
If you are so inclined you can add to the 27 pages of discussion at Ron Paul Forums HERE. 
 

Ron Paul has routinely used the US experience in Vietnam as an example of how ending intervention in a sovereign nation's affairs led to far better results than the intervention itself.
