Paul can never “make up” for his anti-Semitism and willingness to throw Israel under the bus.
If he is correct on some fiscal issues, those ideas are better put forth by a true conservative who understands the real dangers to America from Islamists, Chicoms & Russia.
Ostriches make weak leaders.
Ron Paul is not a conservative-he is a Libertarian. How far does this do your own thing extend! Drugs? Abortion? Lots of his positions are deliberately unclear.
I believe he’s also said they have “as much right as anyone else” to have a nuke “to defend themselves” because they “feel threatened’.
Imagine if Israel would launch a successful preemptive strike against a country that is building a nuclear bomb that threatens its very existence, and the American president would describe it as “a tragedy”.
And then, not only would the U.S. administration fail to “stand by its ally”, as Republicans pledged, but it would actually lend its hand to a UN Security Council decision that condemns Israel, calls on it to place its nuclear facilities under international supervision and demands that it pay reparations (!) for the damage it had wrought.
And then, to add insult to injury, the U.S. president would impose an embargo on further sales of F-16 aircraft because Israel had “violated its commitment to use the planes only in self-defense”.
I call him Schmuckabee for many reasons, and this latest revelation of Obama being a “patriotic American” is yet another reason why I cannot stand the Schmuckster.
What other countries do has an affect on America, therefore we have concerns.
We aren’t broke, we have a major spending problem. America has plenty of income and assets.

Huckabee just does not “get it” in so many ways, and that statement should just make it abundantly clear even for the clueless.
I’ve never been fooled by him.
He’s a genuine “flim-flam” preacher man. Elmer Gantry could not outdo him.
He holds the most naive belief that the old christian saying “do unto others as you would have them do unto you” still applies in this world order. The most evil enemy being Obama.
He does not even suspect that the saying has now changed to “do unto others as they have done unto you” or “do unto others as you think they will do unto you.”
He’s “Mr. Nice” and that kind of person cannot lead in any direction other than having the bully down the street beat the hell out of you, rape your wife, and steal everything you have. Meanwhile the whole family (our country) spins down the toilet.
I absolutely cannot stand the guy tending the sheep.
Don’t throw sophistry at me, afronaut. Anyone who thinks it’s just swell for Iran to want a nuke, and anyone who says they’re not going to police it, is someone who is saying it’s ok for iran to have a nuke.
Ron Paul is a disaster, and I will work to defeat any anti-Israel, possible anti-semite.
