ARLINGTON, Va., May 16 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The following was
 released today by Ron Paul 2008 Presidential Campaign Committee:
     During the "First in the South" GOP debate in South Carolina last
 night, one thing was made clear: Rudy Giuliani does not understand how to
 keep America safe.
     When Congressman Ron Paul, who has long served on the House Foreign
 Affairs Committee, explained how 50 years of American interventionism in
 the Middle East has helped compromise our national security, Giuliani
 interrupted saying he had "never heard anything so absurd." This statement
 is particularly troubling coming from the former mayor who tries to cast
 himself as a security expert, since Dr. Paul's point comes directly from
 the bi-partisan 9-11 Commission Report.
     "Rudy Giuliani has tip-toed around the issues of abortion, guns and
 marriage. The only issue he has left is security, and he doesn't even get
 that right," said campaign chairman Kent Snyder. "It is clear from his
 interruption that former Mayor Giuliani has not read the 9-11 Commission
 Report and has no clue on how to keep America safe."
