Last night, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin spoke with Fox Business Network�s John Stossel about how GOP presidential hopeful Ron Paul �hit the nail on the head� when he warned Barack Obama to be careful when interjecting us in other countries� business.
..... on the domestic front, �he�s the only one who�s been so adamantly passionate about doing something about the suffocating debt, about doing something about reining in government growth and actually slashing budgets.�
Can�t you guys defend Ron Paul without twisting the truth?
�Last night,� was Jan 27, 2012 during the primaries and well before the election.
As always Sarah gives credit where it is due and pulls no punches where it is not.
And she fully understood that the GOPe attacks were focused on Newt.
Last night, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin spoke with Fox Business Network�s John Stossel about how GOP presidential hopeful Ron Paul �hit the nail on the head� when he warned Barack Obama to be careful when interjecting us in other countries� business.
Being �careful� is good advice but Palin and Paul could not be father apart on foreign policy.
This is what she really said:
JOHN STOSSEL, FOX BUSINESS NETWORK HOST: Well, speaking of people not in that arena and on the opposite end of big government - Ron Paul, I think he makes sense. But he has been vilified by so many Republicans for what he says about foreign policy.
And I was pleased to hear you say Ron Paul hit the nail on the head when he said Obama better be careful when he interjects our country in other nation's business. So are you sympathetic to him?
SARAH PALIN, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR:
I sure am. You know, let me preface though with - my concern still about Ron Paul's foreign policies that he would like to see enacted in our country.
I still sense his desire to be more of an isolated-type country and not be as aware and active on the international scene when it comes to protecting our allies like Israel and doing all that we can.
That is my hesitancy there still with Ron Paul's candidacy. However, on the domestic front, he is the only one who has been so adamantly passionate about doing something about the suffocating debt, about doing something about reining in government growth and actually slashing budgets - $1 trillion a year, he's been specific about until we get our hands around this - I respect that.
I appreciate it. His austerity measures that he wants to see Congress adopt in order to rein in government and let the private sector actually grow and thrive and hire more people.
It's absolutely spot on.
He's not the only one vilified though. Look at Newt Gingrich and what's going on with him. The establishments attack. They're trying to crucify this man and rewrite history, rewrite what is that he has stood for all these years.
So it's not just Ron Paul. I believe it's also Newt Gingrich that the establishment, that liberal media, certainly, that the progressives and the Democrats don't like.
