The "Blame-America-First" Candidate? Link*

I heard a Paulite call in to Mark Levin's show a few weeks ago, and suggest that he support Ron Paul because they have similar ideas about conservatism. Levin's response:
"First of all, you lied to get on the air, and second, you want me to endorse the "Blame-America-First" candidate? Ron Paul believes that we are responsible for the attacks against us. I can't support that sort of insanity."
This wasn't the only time I have heard this about Ron Paul. Lots of pundits call Dr. Paul the "Blame-America-First" candidate.
So I wrote a response to those misguided souls, a moral knockout punch:

Good article. Naturally the
Good article.
Naturally the common people don't want war; neither in Russia, nor in England, nor in America, nor in Germany. That is understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. ...Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country. --Hermann Göring
