Republicans have ... ( 3 months ago by carcabe)

Republicans have totally turned off younger people from conservatism that they might have otherwise embraced because of their espousal of militarism and imperial adventure.

Woohoo, Rothbard. ( 3 months ago by BWF89)

Woohoo, Rothbard.

We must reclaim the ... ( 3 months ago by bronxer78)

We must reclaim the lexiconic ground lost to Neo-conmen, for the terms which they toss around like "isolationism" and "conversatism" are misleading our voters.

Wow! What a great ... ( 3 months ago by RMMHS4RP)

Wow! What a great interview!
Woodrow Wilson and GWB get smacked down, and Ike is rightly characterized as a moderate. Meanwhile, Grover Cleveland (the only politician whose picture hangs in Ron Paul's office), Warren Harding, Calvin Coolidge, and Robert Taft are all given their proper due.
Very refreshing.

Woodrow Wilson was ... ( 3 months ago by Whoo69)

Woodrow Wilson was such an ass during WW1. It's a wonder he was never impeached.

Bill Kauffman's ... ( 3 months ago by Whoo69)

Bill Kauffman's book, among many others, should be required reading for all conservatives and Republicans. They have to know that neoconservatism is anything but conservative. It's only been a part of "conservative" foreign policy for the past few decades. In fact, I am appalled when I still see hawkish conservatives today who think the Vietnam War was SOO necessary. I think it was a farce, and the Tonkin Gulf Resolution was based on a lie. Troops were forced to commit atrocites a lot.

Much of what we did ... ( 3 months ago by Whoo69)

Much of what we did during the Cold War in the "national interest" was anything but conservative. Is overthrowing a democratically-elected leader to protect Big Oil in Iran "conservative"? Is overthrowing a democratically-elected leader of Chile who just happens to be a socialist (but has no ties to the Iron Curtain) and replacing him with a bloodthirsty dictator "conservative"? Even Eisenhower isn't without sin here.
We invaded Grenada, Panama, gave weapons to Iran and the contras, etc.

We probably ... ( 3 months ago by Whoo69)

We probably would've been better off being more noninterventionist instead of creating more problems in the Cold War. Hell, the Cold War probably never would've gotten off the ground if we had a clear head on our shoulders and stopped being so damn paranoid about Communists. Everyone who had a brain knew that the Soviets didn't wanna take over the whole world. That's just silly. Yet we based our entire foreign policy for 50 years on that bogus premise.

Can you imagine how ... ( 3 months ago by Whoo69)

Can you imagine how much more peaceful things would be for us if there was no Cold War, if we just minded our own business and left the Soviets alone? I mean, sure, life wasn't easy under the Iron Curtain, but we have no business making the world safe for democracy or trying to free peoples. As John Quincy Adams once said, "The US goes not abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the vindicator of her own and well-wisher of liberty." Soviets acted defensively, to be frank.

I get pretty pissed ... ( 3 months ago by Whoo69)

I get pretty pissed when Republicans always talk about John McCain being a "war hero." First off, he wouldn't be considered half the hero he is now if he wasn't tortured and lasted so long. You can be sure of that. Secondly, what else did he do to be a "war hero" anyhow? No one ever talks about McCain's major accomplishments in Vietnam besides getting tortured but surviving for years.
And plus, if he wasn't drafted, he probably wouldn't have gone to Vietnam. So, wtf

u ever hear of that intercepted message to mexico during world war 1?

The war with ... ( 3 months ago by job1201204)

The war with georgia and russia right now is just another step to the NWO. Democracy is fake, the people believe they are free, but they are not free, they are just living in a fantasy while the global elistist plan their enslavement of us all.

Neo-conservatives ... ( 3 months ago by Libertarian333)

Neo-conservatives are conservative in the original sense of the term, as established in reference to members of the French National Assembly. The liberals were those who sought social justice, originally by opposition to government and embrace of the marketplace; modern liberals are either plain old conservative (totalitarians), or adhere to a sort of confused centrism: seeking liberal ends through statist (conservative) means. Only the extremes, totalitarians and anarchists, are consistent.

We're already ... ( 3 months ago by Libertarian333)

We're already slaves. That's what "citizen" means. "Our" governments own us as livestock. Since 10000 BC, their purpose has always been plunder of the productive. We're just tax revenue, and profits for nominally private oligarchs who enjoy the privileges and subsidies of the state to maintain their positions (e.g. corporations, internally structured like centrally planned socialist states, they live off of privilege and subsidy, and are even more opposed to a truly free market than commies).

I like that quote by Debs at 2:55. Sums up my feelings on voting exactly.
