Trail By Errors

I hear a couple of valid complaints from exiles about the Castro regime all the time. The first is when Castro took over he did not even give victims a proper trial. He just had his goons scream at the accused a range of charges, denied the accused the right to present evidence to defend themselves because Castro already knew they were guilty then had them taken out and shot or imprisoned. Well how much more righteous are exiles who use innuendo, lies and half truths to condemn an honest man?

For example, Ron Paul has written and spoken hundreds of thousands of words on a range of topics. But one paragraph of these words has been used to convict him of plotting to outlaw birthright citizenship and throwing immigrant parented babies over the border. This paragraph was for legislation to "rethink" the 14th Amendment. In this paragraph it never said to "repeal" the 14th. It calls for rethinking because millions of immigrants stream to our country each year to find a socialist nation whose government gives other Americans' money away for free. Because this and the fiat money system that will soon bankrupt this nation (sooner than most will cruelly learn) are destroying our economy he wanted to have Congress have a chat about it. The way you do this is to introduce legislation. If you try to chat on the floor of Congress without legislation you will be ruled out of order.

So I've had exiles who I've respected tell me that this one misinterpreted paragraph is all they need for a conviction despite the library of evidence to the contrary. Sounds kind of castro to me. These judges and juries have reached their convictions without need for further evidence. Sound like a kangaroo court technique from days gone by. They have even gotten mad and indignant with me for pointing out their unfairness. But I HAVE read thousands of Ron Paul's words and listen to him speak. The judge and jury has convicted with just one paragraph - an innocent man.

If somebody got murdered and the murder weapon was found in your yard, should that one bit of evidence and no more convict? Of course not.

The second Castro complaint I regularly hear is he doesn't follow the Cuban Constitution. Then these exiles turn right around and condemn Ron Paul for never violating his oath of office to defend and uphold the U.S. Constitution. All the while they demand of their current American rulers that they tear the Constitution into shreds. They have never actually read much less contemplated its meaning. They conveniently let black robed tyrants "interpret" our governing documents. They are written in English and need no interpretation.

I must be honest and fair all the time - not just when it suits my needs.
