Isn't it funny how eager flailing candidates like McCain and Giuliani are to pounce on Ron Paul, thinking he's an easy target? Yet again at the debates, Paul's patriotism was called into question because he simply, honestly opposes the War in Iraq. McCain had the gall to say that Paul's position was like "the same sort of appeasement that allowed Hitler to take power and WWII to happen." The audience, which was more animated than usual, right booed and Paul easily swats down McCain childish plea to "let the troops win." Check out the video to your right for more.
