Democrats, leftists, and terrorists everywhere deeply appreciate your contribution to the defeat of America.
I heard this on TV the other day:
“Ron Paul for President - Because Lyndon LaRouche isn’t running”
Those of us who support President Bush’s war against terror really need to figure out what to do.
We are being sold out on the right and the left now.
The consequence is danger in the field and at home.
Uh...more like that our very prescence and dominance on the world scene offends and humiliates them (with some references to our failure to pay the Dhimmt owed them), and that they believe we are so decadent that we won't defend ourselves, and if we do, it won't last for long until we turn away. They are upset because we non-Muslims set foot on holy land that other Muslims asked us to, for their defense. The foreign policy that they most object to is our existence without subservience.
Please explain why the “isolationist” policy was “fine” during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century when the U.S. was encircled on all sides by major (usually hostile powers): Britain to the North, France to the West, and Spain to the South. One would think, if your theory is accurate, that isolationism would have been the worst policy under such circumstances. Actually, our policy of avoiding foreign policies and entangling alliances made sense now (when we were actully more threatened on our borders) just like it does now.
I meant to say avoiding “foreign bases”
Glad that's settled. Now, maybe we can figure out why Muslims rape women in Sweden. Oh, yeah, they say it's because the victims dress provocatively. Got it.
Oh, and why do the Mafia order hits on witnesses? Oh, yeah, they said it's because the witnesses testify against them.
Gee, with the Ron Paul method, we can get to the root of all of the world's problems. Just ask the perps what their reasons are!
Ron Paul is not “isolationist”.
It brought that on, yes, through the impression that America was a weakling and wouldn't’t stand up for anything, notably Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan.
We have the same thing today with the libertarian/isolationists, a goodly number which seem permeated with antisemitism - and whose philosophy can be summed up in the words, “I", "me", and "my”.
Any move to defend America before terrorists overrun America is simply called American Imperialism by these folk who trot alongside the radical left.
Libertarians have won .00000000000000000000000000000000000001 of all the elections they have entered. We should listen to them why????
An interesting theory. Please elaborate. I would think that isolationism is the easiest to pull off when you are by far the strongest nation in the world. 200 years ago, we weren't even close to the strongest nation on earth.
Mr. Richman, can I buy some pot from you?
I predict his constituents will call a halt to the proceedings after his most recent stunt.
He makes Lyndon LaRouche look sane and rational.
But more articles like this should convince people of what a kook Ron Paul is in case they don't know already.
I hope heads roll for getting the US in the middle of a ME war for weapons that didn’t exist, to ensure geopolitical stability that has yet to assert itself. I hope Ron Paul and folks like him take the time to sift this Iraq adventure and its predecessors for lessons on when the US should and should not adventure abroad.
I understand the wishes of Freepers to see the USA “finish the job,” and I know our nation will be twice as endangered as before if we leave the ME with our tail between our legs. However, there are plenty of lessons the be learned as to when and how to insert US force into international affairs.
He’s a great 1890s kind of guy..... Not yet aware that Stone Age cultures may actually use nukes against us.
I’ve been reading a biography of John Adams, and when he and Thomas Jefferson were representing our new country in Paris they had to deal with the Barbary pirates.
We ended up having to fight the Barbary pirates [ Muslim terrorists ]. They started attacking the US before we had much of a navy, before we even had a foreign policy. And the reasons were all the same sort of stuff you hear from the terrorists today with the exception of foreign policy as we didn’t have one yet.
They don’t have to have a reason, they can say it but that doesn’t make it the truth.
History repeats itself.
People are forgetting about France as well. After 9/11 they were very friendly toward the Muslim terrorists and their foreign policy was very accomodating, and they haven’t been bombing Iraq. Yet the Muslims are rioting in France and attacking them. These terrorists don’t have to have a reason.
Ron Paul also embraces the “truthers”. Anybody who believes these 9/11 conspiracy obscenities that are floating around the sinisterspere needs to be kick in the head repeatedly.
