It is the kiss of death for any serious conservative

Serious conservatives were primarily anti war as you call it for decades before this new modern era of politics began after Reagan.

The proper term to use is not anti-war, but anti-interventionism and/or nation building. The 9/11 attacks changed this as a knee jerk reaction. Even Bush, in the runup to his first term, was anti-interventionist or in his case anti-nation building.

There are certainly just wars with this belief but Paul would not likely approve of even that with his libertarianism. Steele is not anti-war but he shares Reagan's anti-direct interventionism or nation building that has always led to failure since post WWII.

Sorry, but Code-Pink and the others he has aligned himself are Anti-War, that's why his a flaming nutcase.

Furthermore, given his recent statements about wars we have fought that he did not think were necessary and would resolve themselves (and right now I can't remember if that was the Civil War or WWII) it's really a moot point where nut-case Paul is concerned.

And what's really sad, is that Ron Paul knows better than to do stupid stuff like this.
