Quote from Haroki:
So Rudy actually said that the 9/11 report was absurd and never heard of it? Or are you extrapolating from his statement that he thought that RP's statement was absurd?
Quote from achilles28:
Paul parroted the terrorists rationale for 911 as laid out in the 9/11 Report and by Senior CIA Terror Officials.
Rudy called his comments absurd.
The implication - Rudy never read the report.
OR fancies himself more learned on the roots of 911 then the CIA or the 911 Commission.
Which is more likely? No brainer.
Quote from Haroki:
Well, Ratboy already answered the question for me - he extrapolated.......
Also, RP is also in concert with what OBL himself has said, in general about what he wants to do to the west, what he said in his proclamation of jihad, etc.......
To state that RG doesn't know what the 9/11 Commission Report says is patently absurd. That's the no-brainer. He used the oppurtunity to spin RP's statement to make him look like he blames the US for 9/11. It was quick thinking - politics at its' finest.
It was an on the spot hit piece by RG to make RP look like a fool, and to make him look like a guy unskilled enough to be Prezzzz.
So - which is more likely?
Your scenario, where Rudy doesn't know what the 9/11 report says...
or
Rudy DOES know, and used Paul's statement for political gain when he saw the oppurtunity to make another guy look foolish, and more importantly, make a stir during the debate that makes him look better...
Like you said, no brainer....

There are a few conclusions that can be drawn from the fact that Paul received 13,000 out of 15,000 online votes.
If this guy got as much money to spend on his campaign as Obama or Clinton he would really be a threat.

Quote from OldTrader:
The only "hate" I see around here is the hate and diatribe Paul supporters put out to anyone who isn't a "believer" in Paul.
Yea, and you just called me a terrorist because I slammed the neocon agenda.
Oldtrader, I really hope you wake the fuck up for your own sake.
