Ron Paul in 2009 – No, I wouldn’t risk American lives to end the Holocaust “allegedly”

ron-paul-nutjobNo wonder so many occutards love Ron Paul. Paulbots will do all they can spin this, and those “newsletters” that were reported last week, but it’s just another fine example of Paul’s isolationist views. This is fine for some, and great for anti-semities. but it wouldn’t fly with the vast majority of Americans.  No one probably heard about this before the Big Government story posted by Jeffrey Scott Shapiro. If you choose not to believe it, that’s cool, but Shapiro claims it’s true, and that he made several calls to Paul’s congressional office and campaign office last week and this morning but they were ignored.

On the evening of Sept. 16, 2009, I was invited to a function for Rand Paul’s U.S. Senate campaign at the headquarters of Americans for Tax Reform.

I had been invited by a friend of mine via Facebook who was a passionate supporter of Ron Paul. Within minutes of arriving, I saw Rep. Paul enter the room, followed by an entourage of several college students.

I immediately walked up to Paul and introduced myself, and Paul smiled at me and shook my hand. I told him that I had always wanted to ask him a question, and that it was a hypothetical question, but I would appreciate his answer nonetheless. Paul smiled, and welcomed the question. At this point there were about 15 people surrounding us, listening.

And so I asked Congressman Paul: if he were President of the United States during World War II, and as president he knew what we now know about the Holocaust, but the Third Reich presented no threat to the U.S., would he have sent American troops to Nazi Germany purely as a moral imperative to save the Jews?”

And the Congressman answered:

“No, I wouldn’t. I wouldn’t risk American lives to do that. If someone wants to do that on their own because they want to do that, well, that’s fine, but I wouldn’t do that.”
