First Rubio with amnesty and now Paul with foreign policy.

Cruz and Mike Lee are the only true conservatives left standing.

Even if one were to accept the dubious proposition that things would have been better if we had not gone into Iraq, each president has to deal with the cards that he is dealt and should be judged by what he does with those cards.

And the Iraq cards that Obama was dealt weren’t that bad. The radicals had been routed and the country was quite peaceful. What has Obama done with those cards? He has turned a country that was on it’s way to becoming a stable democracy and turned it back into a hellhole.

That is what Randy Paul doesn’t get. By his way of thinking Bush then should blame the British for forming Iraq’s boundaries in the first place.

It’s not a matter of defending Obama, Good Lord the man is demonstrably the worst president in US history! The point is that Iraq is a disaster, and we were dragged into it under false pretenses in the first place. Endless foreign wars for Israel are killing us, financially, morally, and physically.

Bush and Cheney’s mistakes are old news, true enough, but the fact that Obama is arming terrorists in Syria, the same faction that is now swarming Iraq, should give pause. This war is a fraud, we are arming those that oppose us, and our government is full of traitors at the highest levels.

Rand Paul has shot his political aspirations in the foot, unless he aspires to be Hillary’s running mate.
