“And why don’t you show me a quote from any of these conservatives you claim are willing to let Iran acquire nuclear weapons or your accusation against conservative republicans is bogus.”

You must have me confused with someone. I didn’t say anything about a conservative being willing to let Iran acquire nuclear weapons.

However, I will add this point to the discussion based on what you said here:

“The problem we have now is that we have radicals such as Paul teaming up with the CodePink left-wing radicals in stagnating our efforts to get something done by equating terrorist sponsoring dictatorships with our allies and even the United States itself.”

If Rand Paul is a radical, answer this question:

What is he a radical for?

I’m a radical too. A radical Capitalist. And that is a very good thing.

Maybe you should be a radical Conservative, and then we would have a lot of common goals, or maybe you would rather just “go along and get along.”

The radical aspect of Ron Paul that I am talking about is his foreign policy stances. His tendency to make statements that blame America for terrorism and his arguments for making dictatorships the moral equivalent of more representative governments. That is why I put him in the same category as Code Pink.

There are many aspects to Ron Paul that I respect and would defend. Even though I do not support him or his son I have recently defended his son in regards to the flap he is taking in regards to the civil rights act.

In all honesty I have always said that I wish the two major parties were libertarian and conservative. Even though I am not a liberarian I do respect a true libertarian. (There are many phoney ones though like the libertarian party of Kentucky which recently condemned Rand Paul)
