I have a world of respect for Stonewall Jackson and his First Virginia but doubt that he would agree with you. And wasn't Jefferson the president who rightfully fought our first war against the Islamoloonies???? AND bought the Louisiana Territory (and a good thing too) without explicit constitutional authority???

What kind of "honest friendship" would you seek with Hitler, Stalin, Ahmadinejad, Mao Tse Tung, Kim Il Sung, Kim Jong Il, Ho Chi Minh, Saddam Hussein, etc.? Should we sell (or have sold) them whatever they want(ed) including our best military technology??? We are now (but should not be) a member nation of the United Nations (which ought to be abolished pronto) and of many other treaty alliances that are "entangling. Do you concede that the interventionist position seeks no such entanglements but rather the complete freedom of the United States to act militarily whenever and wherever we deem necessary or desirable in OUR sole interest or in the interest of any nation WE choose to protect? What's your problem??? Why do you suppose that Jefferson (or Washington for that matter) would have been anything but an interventionist under our circumstances?
