Jefferson - Tripoli
I am not a communist nor a neo con.
Oh, never mind support Paul, it is your right but do not pretend he is something he is not.

What Jefferson did was not intervention as we define it today, we did not invade and Nation Build Libya. The Barbery Pirate’s posed a clear and present danger to our trade routes, just as the Somalia pirates are today. I have no problem with our navy patrolling the seas around Somalia defending our flagged merchant shipping, but I would prefer that our merchants were well armed and could defend themselves from piracy, just as I would want to be armed to defend myself from thieves and murders as necessary.

Any pirates caught today should be subject to the laws against piracy at sea, tried aboard ship and if found guilt hanged and baried at sea.

I agree Ron Paul is a Libertarian as am I, but there are only two competitive parties in America, if Paul does not get the Nomination, I will vote for the nominee of the Republican party just as I did when I voted for McCain.

If the lesser of two evils is the choice I am given, then so be it, the result must be the same the communist needs to get his pink slip.
