Wooo, woo, woo. Thats un-American talk right there! We are America! We can do what we want without consequence! A-M-E-R-I-C-A!!!!!! 'Merica!
Paul: Have you ever read the reasons they attacked us? They attack us because we’ve been over there; we’ve been bombing Iraq for 10 years. We’ve been in the Middle East….I’m suggesting that we listen to the people who attacked us and the reason they did it, and they are delighted that we’re over there.
Giuliani: May I comment on that? That’s really an extraordinary statement. That’s an extraordinary statement, as someone who lived through the attack of September 11, that we invited the attack because we were attacking Iraq. I don’t think I’ve heard that before, and I’ve heard some pretty absurd explanations for September 11th. (Applause, cheers.) And I would ask the Congressman to withdraw that comment and tell us that he didn’t really mean that. (Applause.)
Paul refused saying, in part: “If we think that we can do what we want around the world and not incite hatred, then we have a problem. They don’t come here to attack us because we’re rich and we’re free. They come and they attack us because we’re over there.”
Ron Paul Tells The Truth About Attacks By Terrorists; Giuliani Exposed As Clueless, Unfit To Be President
I think this was the exact moment that i realized Giuliani was a idiot last election......
