Yep, he’s a little kooky, but him, Hunter, Tancredo, & Thopmson were the only ones who were advocating smaller, constitutional government. Republicans (not very long ago) rejected nation building outright. Republicans have already lost congress because of nation building, they will lose MORE seats in congress this year because of nation building and there is a pretty good chance if Obama does win the Dem nom that Republicans lose the presidency—all because of nation building. Republicans threw away ALL of it’s agenda for Iraq. People I know in the military (all officers but 1) were not happy with the way Iraq was run from 2003 till last year. If Iraq had been managed properly it wouldn’t matter. Bush Administration said Iraq would cost around $50 billion. Turns out they were about 1/20th the real cost. We also lost out on making the tax cuts perminent, real border control, social security privatization, education vouchers, and a general reduction of the size and scope of government—and for what? What have we gained by Iraq exactly (assuming we do end up winning there)? If we lose there, it’s likely we are the likely cause of complete distabilization in the middle east.
All the more reason not to pull out in defeat as kook RuPaul has stated he wants to do.
Forever changing its long history of stability, harmony and tranquility???? ;- D
