Wars are sometimes necessary and Ron Paul’s conception of foreign policy is ludicrous and indistinguishable from that of your typical RAT.

Ron Paul understands that wars are sometimes necessary, he voted in favor of Afghanistan.

His main question in Congress is to wonder what's wrong with a Constitutional declaration of war, and why is the rest of Congress so afraid of making one?

If these posters are so gung-ho about going to war then they should be posting from in-theater shouldn't they?

It's easy to talk the talk when someone else's ass is on the line.

Afganistan did not stand alone. When we drove the scum out they went to Iraq for medical treatment and revival. The Northern part of the nation had its very own al Queda offshoot. If Paul does not understand this simple fact he is indeed unjustifiably ignorant.

There is no Constitutional format for a declaration of war. Congressional legislation approved the war. This is a deceptive objection. And I have heard him express other reservations most based upon an isolationist view of the world. Not a realistic one.

Actually, the mainline GOP has a foreign policy indistinguishable from the Democrats....., neither believe in the constitution, but insist that Congress fund “military actions” in lieu of declaring war.

This idiocy gets us into interminable, feckless, reckless, “make it up as you go” military conflicts. Checked out G. Washington’s farewell address to congress lately?
