"How much is our Iraq adventure costing us?"

As opposed to the cost of surrendering? No thanks.

Sounds good to me. There aren't any "good guys" in Iraq.

Er... no. Sorry Dr. Paul, as much as I like you on a number of issues, I cannot vote for you unless you actually win the nomination. I still remember you standing there next to Kucinich trying to tell us why killing those trying to kill us was a bad idea...

Yes, the Presidents plan is NOW a mess, but it was still the right course of action to take.

If you win the Primary, I'll vote for you, but I'll be holding my nose to do so...

well, in these things you have to weigh positives vs negatives. My first priority, personally, happens to be downsizing the federal government and repealing socialism. Ron Paul will do that, no question. In large part, I don't agree with him on the war in Iraq or WOT. However, I fear socialism and homegrown threats to liberty greater than I do islamic terrorists. Sorry, just IMHO. :)

I know a lot of good guys, and gals, in Iraq. They're fighting a war to protect us while some politicians are screwing them.

“The only reason we are jacking up the # of troops is so that the contractors can continue to cash in. Bush and many of his buddies are heavily invested in these private companies that are over there!”

Try chlorpromazine or DU.

Yes, your Ron Paul would downsize the government alright...if Congress decides to go on extended vacation in celebration after he surrenders the nation.

They're singing his praises here. No loss is too great, even surrendering the war on terror, to sooth their political purity. And they claim Bush-bots will vote for anyone. LOL.

Try chlorpromazine or DU. 1) I dont need any med's.
2) The crew over at DU are a bunch of boobs. I have no more use for them or for the bush-bots.

I will probably get flamed on here big time for my previous post. However, it's true. Its not a left/right thing to me.. it is what it is.

Unlike your buddy Ron Paul who just wants us to surrender the war on terror?

Chief, do you know what category of pilots has the highest accident rate? Doctors. Highly trained, big ego's, they think because they excel in one field that they are automatically excellent in other fields. They end up breaking their airplanes.

If you were a CWO then you did a complicated job well. Think about what happens to the doctors before you go popping off about something you have obviously not thought about. I am sure your wouldn't attempt to impress an IG without consulting the AR's, please consult our Constitution and the Federalist papers before you start shooting from the hip. Everyone has an opinion, please make yours worthwhile if you are going to do a drive by post. Thank you.

Finally, a "true" conservative Cindy Sheehan can embrace.

The only Republican candidate I would vote for in a Presidential election. Hope to see a campaign committee established here in NC as I would be glad to volunteer to work for his campaign.

Yes, everyone has an opinion...surrender isn't one worthy of consideration. Screw "doctor" Paul.

You accuse the President of allowing 3,000 young people to die so his buddies can make some money and you expect to be flamed for it? I can't see that happening.

I think I've finally found someone to serve as my new urinal target in the garage. About time anyway, pat buchanan's picture is starting to look a little yellow around the edges.

Hey keep posting it!! Great speech (as are most of Rep. Paul's speeches before the House). Of course big government interventionist 'conservatives' probably would understand his speeches about as well if they were written in Swahili.
