Sorry, that's one issue where Ron Paul certainly deserves to be skewered.
Anybody willing to call evolution a "theory" in a context that casts doubt on its veracity is either a moron or a cynical liar.
Consider it my litmus test.
-- Paul Dirks
Are you saying that aggressive misquoting is a tactic you support if you agree with the person doing the lying? That does not sound like you; over time, you always wanted the facts to be reported --- and then the interpretation was fair game. If the position Paul takes is so terrible, why any need to prune out words to change the message?
And then, exactly what part of Ron Paul's statement makes him a "moron" or a "cynical liar"? You toss that out as if only your views could possibly be correct. What are they?
More to the point, what what do you think Ron Paul was saying?
