In a stunning development, a U.S. politician has actually told the clear, unvarnished, un-embellished truth. In fact, the politician, Rep. Ron Paul (Texas), who some say has the apparently incurable habit of blurting out many inconvenient truths, presented the obvious truth about failed, aggressive, inhumane U.S. international/military policies so clearly that only politicians and political and/or religious partisans could fail to see, understand and appreciate it for what it is.
