I wouldn’t vote for Paul either, EVER.
Paul is a lunatic that would get us all killed.

I’m a bit confused by your statement which includes ‘classical liberals’ in the set of all liberals.
I thought that Thomas Jefferson was what is thought of today as a “classical liberal’ and he was not like the typical progressive liberals of today.
Regarding your contention #2,perhaps I have been sadly mistaken in thinking that both liberty and equality are basic principles or as you put it values, of liberalism rather than Conservatism.
If liberty and equality are liberal values rather than conservative,I ask that you or someone else respond and tell me straightforwardly what then are the basics of Conservatism?
To: FreeDeerHawk
Good gosh,I mean basic conservative rather than liberal values when we speak of liberty and equality. I do not see those as liberal values.
To: WilliamHouston
“Judging by the degenerate state of contemporary America (where liberty and equality have been taken to unimaginable extremes), it is clear they were right.”
Would you agree that part of the trouble might be that the definitions of “liberty” and “equality” have often been grossly distorted in our present time?
To: WilliamHouston
Newt is a typical flabby, pasty faced warmongering neocon Baby Boomer idiot who wants to send young people overseas to fight in the type of wars he himself opted out on.
Put the bong down. Newt was not allowed to serve, he did not opt out.
Ronald Reagan also did not serve. Did that make him a poor president. John Kerry, John Murtha and Ron Paul served. All of them are cowards and none of them would be fit to command our military.

At least with Ron Paul, we know for certain that he will oppose frivolous foreign wars and curtail government spending, and the neocons will be shut out of power.
Still on the bong aren't you. If you were sober you would know the surrender monkey is not going to do anything to curtail government spending. Cut and Run has been in Washington for over a quarter century and what has he ever done to curtail government spending? He knows how to bring home the bacon, with all the earmarks he acquires, but that in no way is curtailing government spending. He talks much, accomplishes nothing.

The Iraq War really was fomented by neocon globalists in the Bush administration who believed that democracy could be transplanted there.
So Iraq did not invade Kuwait, one of our allies in the region?
I am sure the surrender monkey would have just let a friend be invaded and done nothing but blame Kuwait for not just surrendering.

(I'll say it again... no more compromise.)
