Well, my original point was Bush doesn’t hold them all either and yet most here call him a conservative. I don’t find Paul’s 9-11 comment outrageous at all. It’s being spun out of all proportion in an attempt to make him look loony. There is rabid support for the Iraq war on this site, and to be opposed to it is viewed nothing short of treason or lunacy, despite the fact every poll indicates the majority of Americans are opposed to it. I agree with you that it is virtually impossible for Paul to win the nomination, but I don’t see enough difference between the other R and D candidates to to make me care one way or the other. Yes, I like R tax policy better, but running huge deficits is just a future tax increase.
One has to remember that 9/11/01 occurred exactly 25 years after the Camp David Accord (9/11/76) which peanut-brained Jimmy Carter had signed between Palestine and Israel. Again, another reason for non-intervention.
