[this is my name not yours]

I was pulling for Fred until the time of the first debate, back in October. After that debate I realized Fred probably wasn’t going anywhere and I started to take a hard look at some of the other candidates. In the next debate, I thought RP hit a home-run. I don’t remember the exact quote, it was something to the effect of us not being able to support big government here and overseas at the same time (in reference to the war in Iraq). He’s right. I voted for George W. because he railed against all of Klinton’s foreign adventures in Kovoso and Somalia. 10,000 Somali’s aren’t worth the blood of one American G.I., and neither are 10,000 Iraqi’s. If the people in the middle east want democracy, let them fight for it themselves like we did 230 years ago. I support kicking the crap out of Al-Queda (Afghanistan) over 9/11, but what I don’t support is endless wars and occupations in the name of ‘regime change’. Ron Paul is the only Republican candidate who echoes my sentiments. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

Really? Your posting history says otherwise.

I hear it from leftists every day. “I was for the war in Afghanistan, but........” Geopolitically, Ron Paul is a fool. We have interests that go beyond our borders. This isn’t 230 years ago. It would have been better had he lived 230 years ago.

Thank you for exemplifying one of the myriad reasons why Ron Paul and his supporters are a blight upon the America I know and love.
