I have some reservations on his foreign policy. But on all of the other issues he’s 100% correct.

"I have some reservations on his foreign policy."

Yeah, kind of like I have reservations about driving a Mack Truck across a bridge built out of toothpicks.

Seriously, all kidding aside, with where things are right now, shouldn’t that be enough.

Amen.

I think the error that Paul makes is going too far back historically in looking at the reason for our war on terror today.

He sees our interventions leading to the rise of certain leaders, but ignores the fact the context of the Cold War.

He is looking at our history in the Mideast over the last decades, and ignoring the real nature of Islam which hasn't changed since its birth in the 7th century.

But we ought to debate what he is saying since it represented a legitimate wing of the GOP, the 'Old Right'right up to 1952 under Sen.Taft.

Now that the Cold War has ended, a reappraisal of our foreign policy is legitimate and reasonable.

We know have to determine how best to defeat Islamic Fascism and rogue terrorist nations.

Ron Paul has written a recent book on foreign policy, have you gotten it yet?
