Paul’s foreign policy is almost suicidally bad. However, he’s the only candidate that gives a crap what the Constitution says about anything.
Constitution? MY BACKSIDE! How is it in the Constitution that we weaken our National Defense, or blame that National Defense for us being attacked on our own soil with the killing of 2,800 innocent people!?
To compliment Paul on any aspect in that respect, is ludicrous.
While I do think you’re on to something there, I still think Bachmann, Santorum, and perhaps even Cain have a reasoned view of it, and want to adhere to it.
Paul does get high marks there, but if you really think about it, his take on the military is not exactly sound since the Constitution does recognize the Military as one of the items justified for fed spending.
We supposedly spend a little over a trillion dollars on the War on Terrorism, and Paul savagely attacks that frequently. He says the nation can’t survive the war costs. Strangely he remains mute in the public arena on Welfare spending that is at least five times as large.
He may attack that too on the internet, but his passion is clearly the military, and something debatable that is 500% worse, he remains mute on in public.
One is constitutional. The other is not.
