Scratch Mr. Paul. He now joins Ryan, Rubio, and other assorted members of the GOP establishment.

Rand Paul has been taking some incredibly weird positions. Is he trying to piss off folks who might have voted for him ?

A little weird I can handle. Sucking along with Obama, nope.

Compared to the chaos today, that was nothing.

Yeah right. Both Iran and Iraq were using WMD on each other during that war. They also fired Ballistic missiles into each others cities. Just because it was state sponsored, does not mean it was not terrorism.

Iraq and Iran fighting each other weakened them, and helped us. Iraqis and Iranians killing each other was fine. The Reagan admin agreed.

We now have transnational threats being created out of the crisis in Iraq other hot spots because of the lack of a powerful central authority.

George W Bush and his advisers who thought Iraq can be democratized do not understand Islamists from middle-east.
IMO Iraq was the biggest blunder of American foreign policy in 100 years. Thousands of Americans killed or maimed, Trillions spent with borrowed money from China which we can not pay back, so will be paying interest for ever...

But the real question is have we learned from this experience? I doubt it. Neocons are eager to start a war with Iran next.
