Hi Ejonesie,
Are you saying that we are unworthy if we are conservative but registered as Independent (as I have always been)? I did not realize that Free Republic was supposed to be Free Republican.
There is more in this letter in terms of stating facts that I agree with than disagree with. What specific item in this letter are you so upset about?
Here is the short summary of what Paul opposed in the letter: “unprecedented deficits, massive monetary inflation, indiscriminate military spending, an irrational and unconstitutional foreign policy, zooming foreign aid, the exaltation of international banking, and the attack on our personal liberties and privacy.”
Which points are wrong?
I am saying, regardless of validity of anything else Paul may or may not support, if you support this whack job for President, a man who has no issues with a terrorist nation, a nation that has low earth orbiting capability I might add, gaining nuclear weapons capability, a man who supports traitors such as Manning, a man who has said it would have been better if Israel did not exists, a man who can't take responsibility for the racist writting in his own newsletters, etc. etc. etc. then you are no Conservative by FreeRepublic standards or any that I know of.
To put it succinctly, your boy has no problem with letting a bunch of nuts who want to kill my family, my child, have nuclear weapons. It has nothing to do with any party, but with sanity.
As far as the letter, understanding why those issues arose is one key to understanding why Paul is a nut.
Had any trips to the Soviet Union lately?
No?
Why is that...
