Forgive me if I made you feel nasty. I thought it strange you weren't aware that Romney was the last hope for many folks in the 08 primary. I see now you joined in 2009. Folks sent him gobs of cash and then he just quit. That allowed McAmnesty by default.

Really, Google is easy.

Ron Paul

Libertarian Congressman Ron Paul is breaking with many of his fellow Republicans - among them his son Rand - to support the creation of the planned Islamic cultural center near the former site of the World Trade Center that has come to be known as the "ground zero mosque."
In a statement decrying "demagogy" around the issue, the former Republican presidential candidate wrote late last week that "the debate should have provided the conservative defenders of property rights with a perfect example of how the right to own property also protects the 1st Amendment rights of assembly and religion by supporting the building of the mosque."
"Instead, we hear lip service given to the property rights position while demanding that the need to be 'sensitive' requires an all-out assault on the building of a mosque, several blocks from 'ground zero,'" Paul continues.
He goes on to argue that "the neo-conservatives who demand continual war in the Middle East and Central Asia...never miss a chance to use hatred toward Muslims to rally support for the ill conceived preventative wars."
Adds Paul: "It is repeatedly said that 64% of the people, after listening to the political demagogues, don't want the mosque to be built. What would we do if 75% of the people insist that no more Catholic churches be built in New York City? The point being is that majorities can become oppressors of minority rights as well as individual dictators."
"This is all about hate and Islamaphobia," he argues.
The statement is particularly notable in light of comments on the issue by Paul's son, Kentucky Republican Senate nominee Rand Paul. Rand Paul has said that while he is hesitant to get involved in a local issue, he does not believe the cultural center should be built; "the Muslim community would better serve the healing process by making a donation to the memorial fund for the victims of September 11th," he said.
(By the way, Paul's Democratic opponent in the Senate race, Jack Conway, also opposes the center.)
Rand Paul got in trouble early in his general election campaign for staking out typically-Libertarian positions, most notably in questioning parts of the Civil Rights Act and Americans with Disabilities Act. He subsequently adopted more traditionally-Republican rhetoric and declined to embrace his father's full-throated opposition to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, among other causes important to many libertarians.

Are you aware that George W. Bush said that the Koran and Islam are equal to Christianity, and said it while visiting a mosque here in the USA?

I don't subscribe to Islam, and feel it is definitely a threat to our way of life, as I do millions of illegal aliens now living among us who refuse to assimilate to our language and culture.

But here is an interesting endorsement of Paul by Michael Scheuer, former CIA Chief during Bush's "War On Terror." Also, Ron Paul has a huge following in the Active Duty US Armed Forces, FYI.

Oh come on, it was a joke. This is why I usually just post articles and rarely comment.
