Ben Stein calls Ron Paul Antisemitic on Larry King

Ron Paul appeared on Larry King Live on CNN this evening along with Ben Stein and Sheila Jackson Lee to discuss the recent thwarted terrorist attack. After Paul gives his now famous view that they “attack us because we are over there” Ben Stein calls Paul antisemitic which solicits a demand for an apology by Paul. Paul characterizes it as a “vicious attack”.

The two continue arguing over one another for nearly the rest of the entire segment.

What is with this word?
AntiSemitic?

It is possibly the most misused word on the face of this planet!

How is talking about a fact antisemitic?
Isn't denying that fact anti-reality?

At the end of the day it is what it is, and what it is is a derailing of the topic.

It's easier to derail the topic with words like antisemetic then to continue debating when you have no ammo as retorts.

Very sad, very disgusting!

Yeah Ron Paul is a real idiot. A flight surgeon, a conservative/libertarian politician who has voted his entire political career consistently and in what he believes in. A politician who actually CARES about his country and the Consitutition. Among everyone else in Washington yeah he's a real idiot???????? You're the idiot and a chump. I may not agree with everything Ron Paul says or all of his beliefs. I get sick of the whole Ron Paul, free market, libertarian mumbo jumbo myself. There is definitely a cult following behind Ron Paul that has alienated a lot of people. But Ron Paul is one of the most honest voices in politics and sticks by what he believes in. He really cares about the direction of this country. He's not the BEST candidate only better than everyone else. Kind of like capitalism. It's not the best system out there.......it's simply better than anything else. And until we have the perfect candidate (will that ever happen) Ron Paul is the better choice and has my vote no matter what.

You are evidence of a Ron Paul Cult ..

People like you call him DR.Paul .. are you serious ??

People like you follow him blindly .. and praise every single word he says .. even though what he says is one of the most insane things a politician could say ..

People like you Defend him to the death, attack like lions when people debate/discredits him ..

I may be an Obama-head .. but you are a freaking Ron Paul cult sheep ..

Ummmm go over to several of the Ron Paul forums and hang out.. I'm an active member over at www.ronpaulforums.com Some of the more hardcore capitalist/libertarian opinions, almost borderline anarchist beliefs are disgusting. I'm as much as a free market proponent and individual rights person as anyone. I see the excess and corruption that is government as much as anyone else. However, some of the Ron Paul followers, not some MANY are borderline anarchists. The biggest problem I have with these Ron Paul nutters is their economic beliefs. They want to blame everything on government. Government this government that. Well the corporate and private sectors of the economy are just as corrupt and tyrannical as the government. Bottomline is people are more greedy in this world nowadays than ever. Greed is something that Ron Paulers and libertarians down play every chance they get. Ron Paul and many of his followers see nothing wrong with the disgusting amount of wealth individuals have as long as they made it from the free market. It just gets old and silly. The free market is fallible just like anything else. Austrian economics is not the answer to all the world's problems.

You know what my problem with all of this is?

If Larry King were actually a journalist who gave a damn about what went on on his program, he would have told both of them to shut up and called out Ben Stein for this ridiculous attack.

But I am sure in his mind all he saw was ratings, ratings and ratings.

This is digusting, the ammount of crap that is allowed on "Investigative Journalism" shows and political talk shows like Larry King is downright shamefull.

No hard questions, and they allow a man who has no business being there other than being a political pundit, make a really wrong and un-called for remark when somebody asked him a simple question.

I swear the days of accountability are gone.

This is exactly what I was hitting on in my Stein/Paul thread. The one that was posted like 5 hours before this one. The one that's not a duplicate. Because i did a search. Why is larry still on the air...he has to be the worst interviewer on TV.

3-4 years later, after being strongly anti-Obama....I will be voting for him for a second term.
