Paul has taken the principled stance that we should remove our troops from Iraq immediately. His position is supported by those of such greats as Thomas Paine, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and James Monroe.
If the above leaders had witnessed the murder of 800 plus Americans between 1972 and 9/11....and then witnessed the WTC collapse...they’d beat the livin hell out of Ron Paul on ‘general principal’ alone.
Sheesh.

You know that when a column begins by citing Wikipedia as a magisterial authority on its subject, the rest is going to be amusing and appalling in equal measure.

What did we do in response to unrestricted submarine warfare from Germany? We went to war.
What did we do in response to Japan attacked our naval base in Pearl Harbor? We went to war.
What did we do in response to Islamic extremists flying aircraft into the World Trade Center? We went to war.
I’m all for going back to our isolationist policy again, but if somebody attacks us they will be damn sure we’ll fight back and win.

What a silly article. I thought all the founding fathers were dead.That's pretty scary, then, since the Dead all vote Democrat.

s position is supported by those of such greats as Thomas Paine, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and James Monroe. Actually, they would probably have had Ron Paul shot by firing squad for treason.
To: Equality 7-2521
In opposition to every other Republican in the race, Paul has taken the principled stance that we should remove our troops from Iraq immediately.The Dems agree with him - lets surrender now.
I don't agree with them, so naturally, I won't be voting for Ronnie.

I always laugh when the Paulites ask what Washington would do.. while we don’t know how he would react in the current situation, and it would be dishonest to speak for him as this article does, we can look at his history.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invasion_of_Canada_(1775)
(I know, another Wikipedia link, but it had the best summary)
Canada 1775 = Iraq 2007 with one difference.. Benedict Arnold actually fought on our side for a while during this battle.

The objective is to kill terrorists. They keep coming, we keep killing them. If and when the Iraqi government can take over the killing, then we can leave. But if you put a date on that, then you might as well be honest and call it what it is: RETREAT, SURRENDER, CUT-N-RUN.

Bush cut and ran [e.g. surrendered] from bin Laden.

All of these people are dead. We don't know what they would say about the current conflict
"We can't know for certain what the founding fathers meant by this or that, and of course it doesn't apply to 'here and now', so lets just do what we think they might have meant."
Phrases such as the above are always thrown around by those deciding which of our constitutional rights to trample on next... Your use of the same logic here is absolutely NO DIFFERENT.

Then let’s look at post #25 as an example instead of guessing based on speeches, why don’t we?
