[what's up]

Nine of the 11 Republicans who criticized Bush's troop-buildup plan voted for the 2002 resolution authorizing the use of military force against Iraq; the two dissenters were Reps. John J. "Jimmy" Duncan Jr. of Tennessee and Ron Paul of Texas

Ron Paul?

Isn't he regarded as some kind of a maverick hero by many here on FR?

Ron Paul is an idiot

[rb22982]

Yup, he generally believes we should bring all our troops home, and not just with Iraq. Guess he sort of follows the Monroe Doctrine. On the economic homefront though I agree with him 100%.

He is a new age isolationist. He is right on many issues constitutionally but never saw a war he'd support.
