I love the way Neocon is thrown out like a racial slur when you Rudy rooters and Pat Buchanan props want to smear a viable candidate.

Neocon had a specific meaning and place once, but we are way past that now.

As to Ron Paul, if he believed in fighting the enemy I might could see backing him. But this libertarian crap about only defending our borders if attacked is just that, crap.

We have an enemy that wants to destroy us and Ron Paul wants to hunker down here and wait for that enemy to come to us ...again.

Fred Thompson has made his thoughts very clear on immigration and border security,and yes they are different now than they were 10 years ago. Hey, guess what? A lot of people felt different about the situation 10 years ago. I know I did, it's what happens when you become educated.

Any politician that advocates that is an idiot at the very least.

Isolationism died as a viable concept the day the first passenger air craft crossed an ocean.

I cannot understand the people like Sean Hannity who are shilling for Rudy Guiliani. Fred Thompson's current ascendence is because the grass roots rejected the existing pool of Republican candidates. The only way Guiliani makes any sense is in the Mrs. Bill Clinton context - he could possibly beat her.

I don't know about anyone else, but I am tired of choosing between the lesser of two evils. I want someone to be "for" because I like his ideas and ideals.
