Opposing, no, laughing at because it is way to much fun, yes.

And I think early on it was established than very few of us took a negative view of Paul in general, but his stance on this war and it’s prosecution was so out of line it overshadowed all else. We can get the strong republican stances else where.

Between that and the continual Paulinati posts, you guys have turned the thing into a comedy. We just really enjoy the entertainment now. Debate wise it is way over...

So that's the Republican shibboleth, is it?

For Democrats, it's abortion. For Republicans, apparently for the moment, it's the war.

I consider the present war only the most recent of the Crusades, and I mean that in a good way. We will fight Islam, either sooner or later, and either on our soil or theirs. Sooner, and on theirs, is better.

That's not enough, however, to make me toss out Paul. Differences on the prosecution of the war are debatable, and resolvable.
