Why I don’t like Ron Paul
Politicons ^ | March 2nd | Henry D'Andrea

Posted on 03/02/2011 8:45:30 AM PST by conservativeforpalin

After releasing my Top 5 GOP frontrunners list for March, many Ron Paul supporters were very unhappy not seeing him in the top five. They left tons of comments complaining that I didn’t include him and saying he is the only true hope for 2012. As most of my regular readers know, I do not like Ron Paul, and I support Sarah Palin for President. So, to not seem biased, I wanted to tell you why I don’t like Ron Paul. However, not to leave you in the cold, in terms of 2012, if he were the Republican Nominee, I would support him.

First off, many Republicans are strongly pro-war, and Ron Paul is not just anti-war, but he has adopted some of the more obnoxious and inflammatory rhetoric from the Left about the war that is extremely grating. Hell, according to Paul, Iraq is a war for oil and empire, engineered by neocons, and in Paul’s book, we deserved to be attacked on 9/11. That is not Conservative at all, and quite frankly disgusting. I do not want the President of the United States with that mindset. Additionally, Paul’s inconsiderate, “we must leave immediately, regardless of the consequences,” position on Iraq comes across as poorly thought out. Even though Paul is opposed to the war, the disengaging of the United States from the war immediately and without consequences is very thoughtless. It’s something you might hear from a Liberal college student at an anti-war rally. Even President Obama and Secretary Clinton, all whom have spent months trying to convince America that they’re the most anti-war of all, have said we may be in Iraq for years to come, though Obama has set a date for withdraw.

Secondly, Paul wants to get rid of the CIA...............

"Actually, they're all over the internet with some here. You can look it up and do the research yourself. Calls for going into Iran etc., in fact are fairly common. Everyone but you apparently knows this."

I did research it, and cannot find a Conservative movement to occupy and appoint leaders of the countries that are currently having unrest in the Middle-East. You claim it is "all over the internet" yet convieniently leave out any links.

Is having a military liason in a country considered "nation building" to Paulhriods?

Is having a military liason in a country considered "military conquest" to a Paulhriod?

Is the fact that we spend money abroad on military matters regarding our national interest the reason we are broke? Listening to Ron Paul, one would get that impression since cutting the military is the first thing out of Ron Paul's mouth. Ron Paul would like us to forget the rampant vote buying on entitlements, including research on "Wild Shrimp".

Ron Paul - Entitlement Queen

So being a Paulhroid isn't a waste of FR disk space? I say it is.

Alex Jones has his own forums that you Paulhroids can thrive in. Why waste your time here?
