Libertas, I respect your thoughts and somewhat agree with your opinion on Paul's foreign policy.
It is, at best, naive.
But, more worthy of discussion than dismissal
On another board the rabid Paulbots say his policy is constitutional but refuse to expound on that.
But, the implication is that what we've been doing the last 20 years (or much longer) is sane.
Hardly.
The argument is usually that we're protecting "our" interests.
I have begun to wonder if the "our" is you and me or if it's the royal "our"
We have bases all over the world. Why can't Europe protect itself? (For example)
I'm nowhere near as extreme as Paul, but if I'm bigger and stronger than you and push you and your buddies around, eventually, you'ff figure out that if you gang up, you can start pushing me back.
I'm wondering if we have reached the point that Eisenhower warned.
Beware the military-industrial complex.
