Sorry Scott, but the neocons and the Israeli government do want the US to bomb Iran! Almost by definition.

“If Iran invaded Israel, it’s up to Congress to declare war.” — Dec 2007 (Because THIS Congress will act SO expeditiously while Israel burns)
_________________________________________________________
The Constitution says the Congress is supposed to declare war. And overall I do think that Paul was wrong to make the statements when we were AT war already about what led up to the war . . . but he is also to a degree correct. If we were minding our own business then we would not be as big a target for them. It's just tough to say that sort of thing when war sentiments are aroused. __________________________________________________________ I think I'm going to become a Paul supporter just for the fun of arguing with people here at FR!
Well, actually the President (on the occasion we actually have one) has the leeway to take action in response to the attack on an ally without a declaration of war.
Paul’s repeated references to “neocons” and his apparent dislike for the Israelis are troubling. He over-simplifies by implying only those two entities want to bomb Iran.
You’re already a Ru Paul supporter, how about you go somewhere it is actually a merit?
Like.. Clown Posse?
*oops.. they’re gone!*
