"Punishment, not conquest, should be the reponse to any threat abroad." and "Our troops should be put on our borders, whose defence is their Constitutional perogative."

These two statements demonstrate the fallacy of the paleo argument. Somehow, we are too believe that it is better to respond to threats by punishment after the fact than preemption before the fact. And, that it is better to fight a war on our own territory than to fight one on the territory of our foes.

Punishment, not conquest, should be the reponse to any threat abroad.
Our troops should be put on our borders, whose defence is their Constitutional perogative.

Those who doubt the veracity and sagacity of these two statements is ignorant of the intent of our founding fathers and wishes to promulagate the misbegotten foreign policies of every Democratic president of the 20th century and half of the Republican ones. There is one other possibility; perhaps you long for Atzlan?
