From the webmaster: The lame-stream Republicans can infiltrate the Tea Party Movement, but they cannot hijack Ron Paul’s Campaign for Liberty if members adhere to the words of Ron Paul. In all Ron Paul and C4L discussions, consult and cite Dr. Paul’s words frequently.
Ron Paul Quotes
We Encouraged Saddam Hussein


  Congressional Record

12 February 1998



1998 Ron Paul 12:1
Mr. PAUL. Mr. Speaker, will the gentleman yield?

Mr. HORN. I yield to the gentleman from Texas.

1998 Ron Paul 12:2
Mr. PAUL. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding. I would like to make two points. The other gentleman from California makes a good point about the character of Saddam Hussein, but my colleagues have to remember and have to realize that he was a close ally that we encouraged for 8 years during the 1980s, so we helped build him up, which contradicts this whole policy. I would like to see a more consistent policy.

1998 Ron Paul 12:3
Then the gentleman brings up the subject: Yes, he may be in the business of developing weapons, but he has gotten help from China and Russia, and possibly from Britain and the United States, and 20 other nations are doing the same thing. So if we are interested in stopping these weapons, we better attack 20 countries. So we have a job on our hands.
