Ron Paul and his gaggle of surrender monkeys are indeed believers. They are true believers in a weak America, a castrated military, appeasing the evildoers and a triumphant Iran.
Thankfully Ron Paul is irrelevant. A resurgent Newt Gingrich knows how to deal with our enemies: KILL THEM!
Go Newt GO!
The ones in these parts believe in a free America, one which will allow the economy to regrow, without the onerous and expensive burden of excessive government. Without a solid economic base, all else is moot: just Greece with a bigger auction sale.
The Ron Paul people I have talked with in these parts very lucidly make the case for taking of our own problems, closing our southern border, eliminating a half-dozen federal Departments which are generally without Constitutional authority, and slashing the Federal Budget along Constitutional lines.
Funny how getting government out of the way of the private sector is considered 'weak', when the Federal parasite is drinking deep of this nation's lifeblood.
Since "Provide for the common defense" is part of the Constitution, it does not mean a weak America, just one that doesn't intervene in other soverign nations' affairs unbidden unless they pose a clear and immediate threat to us. In the meantime, we would do well to permit our own resources and industry to be developed so we don't have to rely on the Chinese to loan us the money to buy weapons components they manufacture because the EPA won't let us develop our own resources.
Read Sun Tsu and study asymmetrical warfare and perhaps you will understand how our own government is weakening us while rattling sabers around the world.
Our service people are the best, ever, anywhere. But if we can't back them up from the home front, then what?
“Kill them” makes a good sound bite, and accusing Paul of wanting a weak military also sounds good, and may have some validity, but, if we do not institute Paul’s economic and domestic agenda, we will not be able to afford to “kill them.”
