"But can the Republican Party really endorse an anti-Iraq-War candidate?" It's a hard one to swallow but consider what you'll have to swallow with the other candidates. Remember wars end but federal programs never do.

Wars could also end with a loss.

"Remember wars end..."
Yes, for example when a country loses and is overrun by its enemies and subjugated to their precepts. Which is what will happen if we turn tuck-tail on the War Against Islamofascism.

wars endSo do nations. I'd prefer that we did not.

Funny thing about wars. Usually, one side loses.

Hmmm, yes I see your point now. Indeed since Ron Paul thinks World Wars 1 and 2 and the Civil War were also foreign policy “blunders”, then maybe losing a war is just no big deal huh?
In Paul’s bizaare view of the world:
1. The COnfederate bombardment of Fort Sumter;
2. The German sinking of allied shipping in 1916-17;
3. The japanese Bombing of Pearl Harbor;
Should have just gone unanswered, because losing a war is one thing, but adding the Department of Education is just intolerable huh? (SARCASM)
What really bother’s me is these people pass this crap off for conservatism and patriotism. If thats true then the Daily Kos is the TRUE conservative website then. (sarcasm)
