A hitpiece from a Daily Caller (http://dailycaller.com/2011/02/21/ron-pauls-poor-policy-and-poorer-defenders/) writer related to the YAF flap was just posted a few moments ago.



Reminiscent of the Islamist Takfiri-Salafists who spend their time declaring fellow Muslims apostates (they often murder those they don’t find Islamic enough), Ron Paul’s supporters, who claim to be the only “real” followers of the Constitution, continually label our effort against America’s Islamist enemies in Afghanistan as “illegal.” Nothing could be further from the truth. Congress and Senate voted on and approved of a law (Public Law 107-40) to authorize military force against the perpetrators of 9/11. When Thomas Jefferson fought against the pirates of the Barbary Coast, he approached Congress in a similar way.

Don't give these guys attention. You can't get everyone. So some guy named Phillip Smyth doesn't like us - so what?

Putting it here will probably double the number of views he gets.

jeff frazee has an article there as well. They asked him to debate on foreign policy. He essentially said 'Sure, just as soon as you grow up.'

Except Thomas Jefferson didn't then say "Ok! We're not going to build an entire democracy in North Africa!"
