Whether he knows it or not, Republican candidate for president Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) has effectively ended his chances to win the Republican nomination for president because of his idiotic defense of those two terrorists in Yemen who were blown to Hell last Friday.
BTW, good job President Obama. (That’s makes three times that Barack Obama did something right since becoming President.)
Paul said that because they were American citizens, that they should have been brought to trial here in the United States.
That might have been the plan if they were still living in the Unites States instead of Yemen. I mean, how hard would it have been to go to their safe-house, arrest them, and frog-march them to federal court? And take the risk that Attorney General Eric Holder might drop the charges on them like he did for the Black Panthers in Philadelphia?
Ron Paul brings to the discussion a whole new way to fight a war which is, if the enemy is an American citizen, then taking out the command and control is not part of the rules of engagement.
