Neocons trying to oust Ron Paul with faulty ad

Here's an ad running in Texas against Ron Paul

1) I cannot believe folks think that America is blameless. How can you say that everything was done because of America's freedom and their democratic ideals, and it wasn't the CIA overthrow or the American military bases set up in their country? Why keep this one-sided argument and not face the real truth of looking at a combination of reasons?

2) & 3) are probably from bills that were attached as a rider to important legislation that Ron Paul voted against. Again, this is a political tactic used to get voters to feel angry. Just a cheapshot.

4) We have spent several hundreds of billions of dollars to rebuild Iraq. How much should we spend? Over a trillion more? Somehow we are willing to sacrifice our own economy to help re-build another country.

Instead of "Blame America First" let's "Blame the Neocons First"

Apparently they didn't learn from RUDY G. He got his buttons undone by RP on this issue.
