I’m merely pointing to the fact that Paulbots seem to either ignore the Islamists or would rather let them kill us instead of us killing them.

You are badly misinformed. If you have a chance, try to catch a replay of Tucker Carlson's interview of Ron Paul today. I'm afraid Ron Paul doesn't know anything about how he thinks we should ignore the Islamic radicals (pretty much all Muslims) or just let them kill us. He was supporting the president's legitimate constitutional authority to preemptively strike against an imminent threat (RP gave the example of striking against Bin Laden and other radicals ready to attack us from within Pakistan's tribal areas). RP was adamant about presidential authority, the need for formal declarations of war or for limited authority such as was granted with Afghanistan.

I wouldn't support RP if I weren't confident that he would use all means, including preemptive nuclear strikes, to defend us against any legitimate menace.

Hey, and Ron Paul has his first celebrity supporter today: Barry Manilow! LOL!!!!! When asked if he liked Manilow's music, RP replied, "I really like it now!". Charming.
