Ron Paul would let North Korea invade South Korea, China invade Taiwan and would have let Saddam have his way after the invasion of Kuwait.

I posted to see how the paulists will defend this idiot’s idea of abandoning all our allies.

This life long Republican would cross over and vote for another candidate if Ron Paul ever got the nomination. But he wont. He is as nutty as a Christmas fruit cake. And extremely dangerous if he ever got in office.

Ron Paul say: “The radicals were able to use our bases in Saudi Arabia and the bombing of Iraq (from 1991 to 2001) as a reason to come over here.”

I think Ron Paul drafted Bin Laden’s 11/2001 letter to America because that is precisely the excuse Bin Laden used for his attacks on us; our troops were in the Arabian Peninsula, forget the fact we were INVITED there.

And what are Paul’s numbers in IA and NH? There’s no way he can win the Republican nomination. The only way he could get on the ballot in November would be as Losertarian, but he’d still mostly draw votes away from the DemocRAT nominee the way Anderson did in 1980.

“The first Iraq war? Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait. He might have invaded the next country, and the next.

I bet Israel would have done something about it, and I bet Saudi Arabia maybe would have talked to Israel. I think if it would have been left to the region, they might have taken care of Saddam Hussein in 1990 and we wouldn’t have the problems we have today.”

If left to the region, Saddam might’ve also controlled the entire Middle East oil supply, Ron. What a dork.

So in World War II, we were justified?

Sure.

Why? Germany didn't attack us.

Well, they sank some of our freighters but we could have just talked to them about that, I suppose.

How many of the founding fathers would agree with Ron Paul?

Maybe he's an "Animal House" fan. "Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?"

Lol. He’s right, Montana could handle it.

If Canada invades Montana?

I think that might be a little bit different. Montana probably could take care of it, but we’d probably help them out from Washington if that happened.

"Many say the surge in Iraq is succeeding, that we're at a turning point now, and we are creating a model of democracy in a part of the world that hasn't seen that."

"That's the propaganda. I don't happen to believe that."

Heh Ron Paul, screw you you little pathetic man. You have to be a liar and a fool to deny we are winning in Iraq. It is obvious you are!

This conservative will not vote or will consider a Democrat candidate in the Presidential if that kook gets the GOP nod. He is a dream come true for the Democrats.

I hope that's his idea of a joke.

Meanwhile, Mexico is invading California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. (and, for that matter, Virginia, Maryland, and Washington DC)

I don’t see any real difference betwen Ron Paul’s view on the war, and the Democrats.
