Ron Paul: the Cowardly Lion

Tell the truth, doesn't Ron Paul remind you a teensy- weensy bit of Bert Lahr, the actor who played the Cowardly Lion in the Wizard of Oz? It's Paul's eyes on one hand, and everything else on the other. Imagine if Paul became our President . . . let's imagine this scene . . .

Iran develops the big bomb, and they make a special delivery to Israel. A huge explosion, a mushroom cloud.  It's a new Holocaust as millions of Jews are instantly killed and the Iranian army goosesteps into Jerusalem, destroy whatever synagogues that remained standing, and begin the construction of mosques that dwarf the number of McDonalds and Starbucks we have in the USA. Benjamen (Bibi) Netanyahu remains alive, as he was swept away to a secret bunker when the attack began. He makes a call to Ron Paul, our President, and the conversation goes like this:

Bibi (on the red phone): Ron, this is Bibi, we have a serious problem here in the holy land. It seems that Iran did what they promised they'd do-they nuked us and killed most of our population. I'm in hiding, but I've heard from my sources that they're building mosques and they've torn down all of our temples.  We need your country's help. They want to kill all the Jews, like it says in their holy books.


Paul: I'm sorry, but that's not my problem, and I'm certainly not going to interfere with someone's religious beliefs.


Bibi: But it's going to become your problem. Ahmadinejad swore to destroy us first, then he would destroy you guys, the Big Satan.


Paul: He has the right to say whatever he wants--haven't you ever heard of freedom of speech? It's in our Constitution and to me, it's my religion.




Bibi: Can't you at least send some military resource--some jets, maybe a few tanks, bombs, whatever you can spare?

Paul: We don't have any jets we can spare--I cut the military budget to the bone because I refuse to fund war. Listen, Bibi, Israel needs to be on its own here--it's really for your own good--it'll make you more independent and strong as a nation.


Bibi: Without help from our ally, we will not be a nation anymore.


Paul: Well, when it says in the Constitution that we are obligated to protect our allies, I will be happy to, but it doesn't so don't ask. And hey, have a nice day.
