He’s pretty conservative. 100% prolife voting record. Several other supposedly “conservative” candidates didn’t have that.

Yes, he opposed the Iraq war. No, he has never favored “secret deals” or been Clintonian. That is an base smear.

Dr. Paul’s conservatism is more like the Conservatism of the pre-WW2 era. He opposes things like the Fed and Social Security that many so-called Conservatives of today have no problem with. And yes he opposes most overseas military adventures.

Can you really say with a straight face that the war in Iraq 1) could not have been avoided and 2) has been good for America? I think it’s a stretch.

The entire GOP establishment has lost touch with first principles (the GOP had traditionally been the party of non-intervention, leaving out the Civil War, of course) and spent all our energy defending Bush’s war.

NEWS FLASH: When I voted for Bush he was explicitly promising “No Nation Building”. Remember that? Now he has his wife on TV (MTP, yesterday) explaining how important it is to build schools and eduate people in outlying provinces of Afghanistan. WHY? WHY WITH MY DOLLARS??

For THIS we voted Republican? Geeze - the Donk’s do a bang-up job of going all over the world with Bono giving away our money. Why do we need the GOP if that is the plan?

Cost of the Wars to date: nearly $1 Trillion dollars.

In abandoning their opposition to these unconstitutional programs they have turned the GOP into the “Democrat Lite”
party. Same taste, less filling.

Huckabee -now he REALLY is not a Conservative, he’s a pro-life liberal.
