"Conservative" does not necessarily mean knee-jerk support for spending thousands of American lives and hundreds of billions of dollars to prop up a ruling government of Iraq which is dominated by the psychopathic gang of murderers known as the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI) and the Islamic Al Dawa Party, who are the very same Islamic Terrorist Parties which bombed the US & French Embassies in Kuwait, and murdered 241 United States Marines in Beirut in 1983.

Perhaps you believe that the US should continue spending buckets of blood and treasure supporting this Islamic Terrorist thug-regime in Iraq; but Ron Paul's principled belief that we should not does not make him any less of a "Conservative". His early support and long-time friendship with Ronald Reagan, his record in Congress, and his 100% rating from The Conservative Index, speak for themselves.

Read MY lips, Dude. He voted against the war when John Kerry was still FOR it. He's a man of principle, and it doesn't hurt that the calamity has proven him correct. The dims may be capitulating to him, but he surely isn't capitulating to them.

Your lips and your fingers are wrong. Ron Paul's reason for his vote is not the same reason that the dems have for their vote.

I seriously doubt if the stupid 'Pubbies actually nominate Ron Paul, because they are in a suicide spiral, but I, for one, hope they do.

Several times in the past dozen or so years we had a chance to validate the conservative, pro-Constitution world view, but were denied that opportunity by the RNC's choice of liberal-lite RINO candidates.

I see way too many FReepers who gripe and moan about the sad state of affairs that is our country, but when given a chance to actually do something about it, they "cut and run".

He is NOT "capitulating to the dims". Agree with him or not, he has been a consistent Jeffersonian non-intervetionist throughout his career. While the Dems made a political calculation of supporting the war when they thought it was popular and opposing it when that popularity waned, Rep. Paul was against it from the beginning. He was also opposed the the war in Kosovo when the Dems supported Clinton on it.
