Paul, Bachmann spar over Iran and nuclear threat

12-16-2011 • Associated Press

The two House members clashed during Thursday night's GOP debate while standing next to each other.

Paul says that terrorists want to harm the U.S. because it bombs innocent civilians and invades countries. The libertarian-leaning lawmaker says the worries over a nuclear Iran are merely the pretense for the U.S. to start another war.

Bachmann says that Iran is led by "an avowed madman" and committed to destroying Israel. She says Iran must be stopped.

"Bachmann says that Iran is led by "an avowed madman" and committed to destroying Israel. She says Iran must be stopped." - Bachmann is "an avowed madwomen" and committed to destroying the rest of America. She must be stopped. - Ron Paul speaks the truth. The president of Iran never said anything about destroying Israel, never. He did say that the present regime of Zionism must fade away in history passed for the entire world to be a better place for all mankind to live, but never anything against the Jewish people or the state called Israel. Bachmann is a liar and if I were in the audience, that is what I would have shouted out at her. 'Liar'
