Thread: Anti-War Group Releases Ad Hailing Ron Paul

Americans Against Escalation In Iraq, the major umbrella group organizing activism against the Iraq war, is pushing out an ad later today blasting the GOP '08 frontrunners for their claims about Iraq during yesterday's CNBC debate, and praising Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) as "the only GOP candidate who gets it on Iraq." Take a look:


Well I think that this will send him soaring in the polls.

He's the only real anti-war candidate so who else could they support??

The Dems have totally abandoned leaving Iraq:

This is the kiss of death for R Paul's campaign. The Republicans will go after him because he is showing that the only thing the other candidates have to offer is four more years of Bush policies.

I think the Republicans going after him would be a good thing. It would get his name out there. His biggest hurdle right now is that his name is not on the lips of America.

Well, we'll then see if democratic voters will actually man up and vote for the only candidate that agrees with him on what polls say is the number one issue. Or we will see if they are so addicted to "free money" that once they get in that booth pushing the "Hillary" button will be automatic for them.

It's more of a plus for him really. That'd really help define his political image in that area. And since the war is so unpopular, he'd be prime for the Republicans. What I want to see is how he'd bring back the troops at the face of international criticism (if he'd be elected).

I wonder if he'd be able to live up to his promises. If he can, he's ideal.

Read your history people, he will be shot. All anti-war activists without an exercise video have been so far.

But Jesus do I love Ron Paul.

This is another undeclared war, the comanderinquestion makes he rules. He will bring them home today! No question about it.

This may create some havoc, but we have that now.

I love his ability to take the obvious angles on arguments that we ALL ignore, such as this issue. He believes that the people saying there will be havoc when we leave are the same people who said the Occupat....Invas.... LIBERATION would be a cakewalk, and that is some REAL truth for a change...

Don't you agree Chris?
