"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldnt make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan |

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams |

Its very simple. Exercise restraint in most cases and take decisive action when called for.

Sounds like the same place Ronald Reagan occupied.
That certainly meets with my approval.

Advice to Ted: Avoid any references to McCain. They can only hurt you.

I am in a different dimension from either McCain or Paul.
Those two space cadets live in their own little worlds. Okay three space cadets if you count both Pauls.

Ted should eschew any references to McQueeg and reword his statement to say he’s for a muscular, yet tempered foreign policy.

There are three principles that should guide U.S. foreign policy, Cruz said:
Number one, we should focus directly on protecting U.S. national security and the interests of the United States of America.
Number two, we should speak with moral clarity.
And number three, we should always fight to win.
I can’t argue with these 3 points. How difficult is it for other pols to voice these simple truths?!

The time to intervene against Iran was during the last term of GWB. Now that window has closed. By acting against Syria the way we have, Russian and Iranian ties are now stronger then ever. An attack on Iran would be an attack on Russia now. So says the pact they have signed.
To: SoConPubbie
So Cruz is sitting on the fence between war and peace.
No wonder senators (and representatives) make poor executives. They don’t like to be put in the position of having to make decisions. Their lives are easier when they can vote ‘yes’ or ‘no’ or ‘present’ or just stay home for that vote and receive a ‘not present’.

Cruz might be in between McCain and Rand Paul on foreign policy. It's hard not to be. We really don't know where he's at on it until we see how he reacts to situations as they arise. He made me a little nervous in that ABC interview, when he seemed to accept that Assad was the one who used chemical weapons. On the plus side, he came out against Obama's Syria fiasco.
There's nothing in Cruz's background that would suggest that he's ready to develop his vision yet. He needs more study and experience.

I could live with that kind of policy. I’d like Rand’s simply because of the dire straits we are in after a decade of disaster, but Cruz would do in a pinch.
