It’s instructive how the fever of war can change things so dramatically. A man once respected and admired is now hated and slandered. An ally to liberty and the Constitution is now a traitor to his country. The only thing different between now and then is that he happens to oppose the adventure that has since taken place in Iraq. The philosophy and ideas which are at the foundation of his opposition are exactly the same as when he was in better standing, and incidentally have nothing in common with the bases of the leftists’ opposition: an intelligent foreign policy recognizes that less is sometimes more, and that actions have unintended consequences.

What is even more instructive are the posts made here in the past condemning Clinton for his “wag the dog” wars (as we called them here at the time) and adventures in Africa and Europe. The staunch patriotism shown here for Bush adventurism is praised...even though attacks on the World Trade Center in New York were the impetus for military actions of both the Clinton and Bush Administrations.

I never thought this site was dedicated to partisan Republican ideology but to conservatism. In many cases the two are mutually exclusive, Those who so mindlessly attack Ron Paul on this site are also attacking the very credibility of conservatism and the very principals this site was founded on. They are the best evidence we have that many in the G.O.P. are the enemies of conservatism.

They are the enemies of Freedom.
