And with posts like this one, you will not be here long enough to engage the anti Paul section of this site. But even if you were, it is painfully obvious you would be unequipped mentally to spar anyone.

Let me ask you, who are you going to worship when he’s gone.

He opposes foreign intervention, especially undeclared, preemptive, nation “building” invasions – when we are flat broke, no less. Paul supports a strong national defense (our nation) and opposes borrowing money from Japan to defend Japan (and Britain and Germany and France…). Forgive me for being a crazy uncle but this sounds reasonable to me!

Paul believes the interventions don’t do any good, or worse. Let’s face it. After nine years of war, we’ve essentially handed Iraq to the Iranians — who we want to bomb — and done it at the cost of over 4000 of America’s best and countless borrowed billions. In the even longer war in Afghanistan, our “allies” in the Afghan army are fragging our boys left and right while we give billions to our other “allies” in Pakistan, who protected our arch enemy and jail the man who led us to him. Is it any wonder our troops’ suicide rate is 1.5 times our KIA’s?

With this kind of morale, it’s no surprise that Ron Paul received 10 times as much money in campaign donations from active duty military as all other candidates combined. Do they know something you guys don’t know? (Gotta tread carefully here as I might be in penumbral violation of the impossibly cool anti-Chickenhawk rules of this site – I thought it was a joke at first).

Another thing I noticed here: the “Paulbots” — to use your terminology — offer comments on policy and principles, while the anti-Paulbots (APB’s? — again, your nomenclature, not mine) offer accusations of mental imbalance. Forgive me for asking, but if reasoned criticism of an arguably insane foreign policy earns one the label of “crazy”, who is in need of the psychiatrist here? At the very least, I would ask for more adult debate and less playground name-calling.

But in spite of it all, I plan to return to this site — if only to engage in some sportive jousting with my new pals — the Anti-Paulbots!
