    Most of them signed up to to over there, supporting them would not be to bring them home as most of them support the conflicts. The did volunteer to join during a time of war.

    definition of isolationist: a policy of nonparticipation in or withdrawal from international affairs

    So where are we wrong?

    If they attack us maybe Ron Paul would do so, not too sure if they attack our allies.

    Just for the record, I am not a warmonger at all. Just a realist.

    i·so·la·tion·ism (s-lsh-nzm)
    n.
    A national policy of abstaining from political or economic relations with other countries.

    Ron Paul wants to trade with everyone one. He believes in diplomacy. Diplomacy involved political talks with other countries.

    Try again.

    The republican stooges who put Romney on the ballot will assure the Obama victory. Maybe Obama will send you a T-shirt for your troubles.

    I've been ringing the warning bell for the past 3 mos that the Republicans better not do their usual thing and shoot themselves in the foot---they've changed somewhat, now shooting themselves in the 'feet,' with all the name-calling, back-biting, and usually disingenuous Liberal antics that they are now using on each other! Very sad.....Looks like Obama is going to use his $1B to throw multiple parties, as the Repubs destroy each other and he will as usual stay above the fray.

    so you're still wrong, as he has never called for non-participation in international affairs.

    Do you make this stuff up as you go ?

    Shame really. So many big government closet liberals just begging for an Obama second term. Run your tool Romney and you will get it. Plus you will lose hose seats and not regain the senate.

    Never intended to convey it was orignal in the sense of "never been said before", but I believe it was acurate in addressing your rather lame question. But, regardless, Paul is strange pup and I would have to conclude anyone who accutally supports him is a bit touched as well.
