It doesn’t matter. TehRon doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in the hot spot of winning.

Men's room attendant at Disneyland.

I note you ignore Paul's cut-n-run remarks.

I take exception to a person that has never
served calling one who served a coward!

So you were too much of a coward to serve?

No, just really busy with attending the men's room at Disneyland.

Take exception all you want, Paul's remarks are those of a coward.

I would say Ralph Nader, But if he wanted the evangelical vote he could pick Mike Huckabee.

Kind of hard to call a flight surgeon in the Air Force during the sixties a coward!

Oh I don't know. I was a Flight Surgeon in the Air Force from 1978-1991. It didn't take alot of courage to get through Medical School, join the USAF and go to Flight School in Texas. Depending upon what type of aircraft Dr. Paul flew in, it was no more hair-raising than flying Delta.

Precisely what did Dr. Paul do during his Air Force Career that was so courageous?

So you back up Paul when he says this:

I believe our troops should be brought back to the United States without delay.

If so, you may be a coward too.

It seems that coalitions of the willing that won both middle east wars are better than the treaties that have never won a war since WWII.
UN
SEATO
NATO and UN

With all the republican candidates dropping out at such a fast pace, this vanity may have to be bumped to headline news in a few weeks.

And a coward

I'm pretty sure that Dr. Paul is not a coward.

On the other hand, I'm just about positive that someone who posts slander and insults thru the anonymity of the internet is the very definition of one

How do you explain this statement by Paul?

I believe our troops should be brought back to the United States without delay.

Seems pretty clear to me.

Thats very sweet of you to say.

The possibilities you listed are good ones. He needs to select someone young enough to run for prez 4-8 years from now, and someone that holds the same libertarian beliefs as he does, so we'll have a pro-freedom torch bearer when Dr. Paul goes into his well-deserved retirement.

On a related note, I'd like for him to start addressing some of the "important" cabinet positions. Maybe if he suggested appointing pro-empire type persons for State and Defense, he would ease the (small) minds of potential supporters who are wary of his non-interventionalist beliefs.

In general, I wish he'd stop campaigning like someone who doesn't have a shot at the nomination. I know he, and most of his supporters, didn't think we had a snowball's chance when this thing started, but we do now.

It's time to stop being as inflamitory as possible in his statements and time to start speaking like a politician - when you address a nation of gullible sheep, you want to use a soothing baaaaa-baaaaa instead of telling the bitter truth in the most clear and direct of terms.

I'm not saying that he should lie - he probably doesn't know how anyway. I'm just saying that he should tone it down some. We're going to find out soon enough, as a nation, that we're bankrupt and balkanized at home, and overextended overseas.

The explanation is very simple... he believes that our troops should be brought back to the United States without delay - a belief that I, and apparently the majority of my fellow Americans hold too.
