A picture of Santorum in 2006 speaking to dispensational, Isreal-firster Evangelicals at a "Christians United for Israel" (CUFI, which I believe is run by John Hagee) rally. Israeli flag in the background.

>>>...A major recipient of campaign money from pro-Israel sources, Santorum said criticizing Israel was “anti-Semitism.”

To play the devil's advocate here, I've read this site the past few weeks and find it an interesting take on Paul. The author seems to be an old democrat , liking FDR and JFK as a more likely type hero. It seems he's partial to Lyndon Larouche as well. I don't agree with this blogger's political stance but found it somewhat worthwhile reading.

He was also a strong ally for Israel and American Jews. In 2003, Santorum and fellow Republicans heard from Hillel, the Anti-Defamation League, and the Zionist Organization of America to determine how to combat anti-Semitism in American colleges.[46] Santorum drafted language on "ideological diversity," which Race & Class magazine suggested was tantamount to "policing thought."[47] Inside Higher Ed suggested that he was pandering to David Horowitz and had no deep-seated position on the legislation.[48]

Schools not teaching proIsrael ideology to loose government funding.

Now tie this in with the recent passage of that new defense bill (pushed by Zionists and neocons) making citizens subject to detainment by the military based on whim without due process (iow martial law) and criticism of Israel or voicing antiwar sentiments may become criminal or at least suspect activites.

Ron Paul's view on who the major players are behind the neo con and the zionist movements.

I probably know less of American politics than I ought, to comment on this, but I do know one fact of Catholic social teaching - It is not libertarian, as Ron Paul is. Since the time of Rerum Novarum during the pontificate of Pope Leo XII, the Catholic Church has expounded a social philosophy that is truly unique.

Chris Ferrara, editor of the traditionalist publication, the Remnant, commented on libertarianism vis-a-vis Catholic thought, rather unnecessarily angrily, I thought, to a former colleague here.

Quote

But it is quite another thing to claim, as you do, that you are exercising legitimate freedom in the Church—no, you are not—and, far worse, to engage in a campaign to persuade faithful Catholics that what your Institute preaches—a form of economic and social liberalism condemned by a long line of Popes (cf. Pius XI, Ubi Arcano Dei, n. 61)—is “perfectly compatible” with traditional Roman Catholicism.

Whatever the issue, Mises and Rothbard are clearly at odds with the teaching of Christ and His Church.

Ron Paul - War Propaganda

I would vote for anyone who can beat Obama, but Ron Paul according to the Internet is a FreeMason of the highest rank.

Doubt he could beat Obama even if he wasn't a Mason.

That's nothing but a false rumor. Ron Paul denied ever being a Mason, as did his son Rand. Not only that, but there is absolutely zero evidence that he's a Mason.

Well I hope your right, because I hate the Masons, arch enemies of the Church.

I still don't think he can beat Obama, and I would love to see Obama out of office. I can't imagine anyone worse then he, except a FreeMason.

Yet, we are all in God's hands, and He knows who the next president will be, we will know soon enough too.

I actually wouldn't be surprised if Obama is a Freemason...

Dr. Ronald Paul seems to be an orthodox minded candidate for the 2012 presidential candidacy. He wants to eliminate the Federal Reserve which will terminate the dominance of private bankers, especially European influence, on the American economy. He also wants to extirpate all foreign aid and use the money to help our nation.

I hear that he is not against states legalizing prostitution or heroine? If that's true, then those views of his are a stumbling block for me and I can't vote for him to be president.

Not defending, nor agreeing, but his basis is that if you make some acts illegal, it opens the way to illegalizing legitimate rights, such as the right to bear arms. If you look a the facts, seems pretty accurate in our day and age. Also, you better not vote for anyone else pretending they give a stick about prostitution or heroine being eradicated.

For me, Dr. Ronald Paul is only TRUE Republican out there because even Liberal Democrat and American comedian, Bill Maher lauded Ron Paul's conservative positions when it came to foreign policy. However, his libertarian views in certain areas remain controversial to many conservatives, especially traditional Catholics.

Although it's true to say he's pro-life and committed to outlaw Roe v. Wade in our country
