This isn’t about Ron Paul. This is about handing over our freedoms and bankrupting this country with useless wars so that an enemy doesn’t have to fight us, they can just walk in the front door holding the deed to our country!
So Osama and the Taliban weren’t based in Afghanistan? So Saddam Hussein didn’t violate the Desert Storm peace treaty hundreds of times and try to kill President George H.W. Bush? 9/11 didn’t happen? Please explain which “useless war” you’re referring to. And which enemy holds the deed and is going to just walk in and take over? Read this:
“At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it? Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest; with a Buonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years. At what point, then, is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.” Abraham Lincoln, Address Before the Young Men’s Lyceum of Springfield, Illinois (January 27, 1838)
Bush’s policies didn’t lead to Obama. It was Bush’s lack of public relations and defense of those policies. There certainly were issues most of us disagreed w him on but This BDS is absurd. Iraq was not attacked based on lies and anyone promoting that here should be banned.
