Perry will do what needs to be done unlike Ron Paul who blames Israel and the USA for the Muzzies holding 30 year old grudges (concerning us) and 4000 year old grudges (concerning Israel)
By the way I saw Perry is cleaning up in South Carolina.
Lol. I guess I’m a hyper-hawk. Who knew?
To paraphrase the Bible, where a candidates advisers are, there will his policy be.
Do you know what orifice the author pulled this quote from? It is not in the Bible as far as I know. If quoting from the Bible, he should give the reference, otherwise, he is just making it up.
Like Joe Friday said, "The facts, m'am. Just the facts." If I'm given the facts, I'll make my decision accordingly.
Unfortunately, in the meantime, these idiots are DOING THE DEMOCRATS WORK FOR THEM! They are actively attempting to destroy legitimate GOP candidates before their campaigns are even rolling.
I'm not necessarily a Perry supporter, but I'm willing to listen to him because, unlike geniuses like Doug Bandow, I'm a reasonable guy.
Bandow - I don't need your idiotic opinion in order to form my own. Stop attacking candidates who would certainly be an improvement over Obama and give me a reason to vote for the candidate you support.
Stop the negative campaigning against your own side!
Is Perry Jewish? I thought neo-con was a euphemism for joooo.
THE RETURN OF THE NEO-CON!!! Aaaahhhhh!!!!
Noooo!
The author is really stupid. One could attack Perry for being a neocon without advocating North Korea’s invasion of the South.
This author is one of the least knowledgeable that I have read in the last ten years. It is hard to know where to begin.
Let’s just say that the whole opiniion piece is claptrap and shows a lack of knowledge of history as well as foreign policy.
Doug Bandow is an extreme Libertarian who has written similar articles on all our major candidates (except Ron Paul, surprise surprise). He has had some very nasty words for Palin and Bachmann.
To give you an idea how extreme he is, he has written at least four articles calling for the lifting of sanctions against North Korea and thinks Taiwan should fall back under China’s rule.
He is the perfect definition of a neo-hippie or as Ayn Rand called Libertarians, the hippies of the right who trade rationalism for whims.
I take it as a given that only neocons can win the GOP nomination. Who was the last GOP president who wasn’t? Coolidge??
Blame America first!
Perry promotes leading from stregnth, this guy just promotes every other Nation in the world.
Let me illustrate using Bandow's article: "In such a world the U.S. need not confront every threat, and especially need not do so militarily. Russia is determined to regain lost influence along its borders, not challenge the U.S. for global preeminence. China is building a military to deter the U.S. from attacking it, not to attack America."
Russia is determined to regain lost influence along its borders. Bandow ignores that as that influence is regained, there are new borders to gain or re-gain influence. The Roman Empire expanded due to threats on its borders. As the borders expanded, new threats appeared at the new borders.
Here's an example of the narcissism, which implies that America is the cause of everything and no one else has their own aims and actions. It's always in response to America. "North Korea is a problem for America primarily because the U.S. continues to defend its populous and prosperous ally to the south. Pull out Americas troops and Pyongyangs ability to threaten America largely vanishes."
Ah, North Korea has sent missiles over Japan too and has built missiles that reach Alaska and the west coast.
"A nuclear Iran would face destruction by both Israel and the U.S. if it attempted to use any weapons that it created, and its leadership has demonstrated no taste for collective suicide."Ah, one nuclear missile wipes out half of Israel. Two or more missiles could wipe Israel off the map. And Iran's leadership compose Twelvers, who do believe that the Mahdi will return,when there is mass slaughter in the world. Ahmadinejad wants to bring this about.
Why I'm not libertarian on foreign policy.
