Paul and Thompson are both strong on federalism. That's all I'm saying. I did not accuse Thompson of sharing Paul's flawed view on the war (and that includes foreign policy as well).
The non-sequitur attacks on Paul on Thompson threads is really disgusting. Why even mention him? Just promote Fred and help him win the nomination and defeat Rudy and Romney, and his views on federalism will win over most of the independent and libertarian voters in the general to defeat Hillary, because they sure in the Hell ain't voting for the other GOP nominees.
The amount of ad hominem attacks thrown by some of the ‘conservatives’ on here seriously disgust me. Especially the ones who actually believe that Iraq is the Holy Grail of conservatism (it isn’t) even though I’m 100% at odds with Ron Paul on Iraq and 55% on overseas policy in general.
To casual eyes even the mention they agree on anything doesn’t help Fred. I’d say the same if you had mixed Mitt or even Rudy in the regard.
Just don’t compare the two, even on issues they may agree on.
