Which is a most odd thing to say considering that Arabs are ALSO Semites & that Paul is not even against the existence of Israel & presuming that everyone in Israel is a Semite. Let’s not attack the only true conservative in the race over petty foreign based politics. Paul would implement policies that would reverse the demise & bankrupting of America - he is not running to be the President of a foreign nation.
Oh good grief, first, true Conservative is a laugh. He is a moderate libertarian at best. Second, regarding financial issues, I guess you forgot the Constitution- all bills of taxation, revenue, and spending originate in Congress- where Paul is already that, and other than flap his gums, he has been a failure at that. He is in what should be the best position for him now, chairman of the monetary policy committee and he has done jack and squat in that role....
President of the United States primary role is Commander in Chief of the US Armed Forces. This also includes negotiating treaties with other nations, something Paul is against yet the Constitution puts in high regard and says should be considered ‘high law of the land’.
So basically, what he proclaims to be his main goal he should be accomplishing now- he isn’t. He instead wants to move into the role that is his weakest on policy.
The man is to the Constitution what Fred Phelps is to the Bible.
Nice word mincing. I'll play.
Ron Paul is an anti-Zionist. The Zionist Entity is our ally. Their form of government is most like ours, and represents the best hope for the world in general, and the Middle East in specific. Abandoning them to 8th century theocrats and local tinhorn dictators is not in our best long term interest, even if it would defuse some short term regional problems.
We do need libertarian domestic politics to reverse the bankrupting of America, but we should not abandon our fellow outposts of civilization out of naked expediency. We've already erred too far in our global reach. We don't need to compensate by going equally overboard in global retreat.
I disagree.
A Conservative would never call his country “imperialist”. William F. Buckley didn’t. Barry Goldwater would have committed hara-kiri before doing it, as would Ronald Reagan.
“Let’s not attack the only true conservative in the race over petty foreign based politics.”
“Petty foreign based politics” - is that all you think of the planetary threat of a nuclear Iran and the existential danger facing our only true, democratic ally in the Middle East???
And RP is not a true conservative - he’s a pure libertarian, which is quite different.
