"I can’t get behind Ron Paul during a war. If it was peace time maybe but he is way too radical to me."

So conservative is too "radical"?

This "War on Terror" is not like any ordinary war.

Time was, there was a clearly-defined enemy, and everybody knew that we must defeat the enemy to win.

Now we see that there is no clearly defined enemy, nor any clearly-defined objective, other than to make them stop killing folks, and most Americans don't even realize that this is another unwinnable conflict undertaken in the name of the United Nations, and that we will never actually "win" anything, other than the "responsibility" to maintain a military presence in the Middle East indefinitely.

GWB said, before he was elected, that he was against "nation-building".

Now our brave and capable military personnel are nation-building in a place that is ambivalent, at best, toward any new nation for themselves, and without a continual effort on our part will simply allow it to be taken over by the next leftist leader that comes along.

You and yours will help elect our next leftist leader too, and the cycle will continue.

Ron Paul would cause World War III with his incredible naive statements. Did you hear him at the last debate? Good lord.
