Ron Paul Twitter Account

Drudge has linked this now to stir some trouble. No doubt this will cause a storm..

Intended in IMHO. This was not Ron. If Drudge has already linked this then it is a set up.

I follow Ron Paul on facebook and noticed weird posts, of an idiotic quality, and clearly not what Ron would post, I think starting two weeks ago. The new guy managing this social networks is clearly an idiot.

Whoever is behind this shit needs to pick battles more wisely. I doubt Ron has much security any more and dead mercenaries have a lot of mercenary friends.

Another ghostwriter scandal. Imagine that!

Why on earth does he have people tweeting things in his name?

It is what someone in his position is supposed to do.

"Live by the sword, die by the sword" is what the dumbest, stupidest, most delusional people around here would say in this context. There's no way that Ron actually said this. Ugh. How said and pathetic.

Um. No. "My heart weeps for this young men and women," is what Ron said for our soldiers who bare physical and mental wounds thanks to our senseless foreign policy. He would never tweet anything like this, personally.

Ron would hardly express sympathy for a thug like Chris Kyle. He'd likely express sorrow for the PTSD suffering soldier who shot him, though.

Well, I have to say I agree with the sentiment though, that idolizing what he did, the way people were at the time, was indefensible. I think in a time of war, you know, you expect solemn regret. The media really disgusted me, the way they were treating war kills as if it were a sport or video game. And it was disturbing to hear people I knew then starting to talk about it with the same emotional detachment that they would talk about a football player. It's not the first time the media has exploited a deceased or emotionally vulnerable solider, and it won't be the last. The whole thing is really sad.

I think it's odd though, for Ron (if that truly was him) to call out a particular person like that rather than the idea/situation itself. I don't think he wrote it.

He shares nearly every blog entry an LRC contributor uploads to LRC.

Seriously, a ridiculous tweet for someone to post using Ron's account.

Which ever one of you posted it (and I am sure you're reading this to see the blowback as we know most of you also lurk the forum), you need to tweet a clarification.
