It's expensive to run a global empire. What would any debt-conscious conservative think about this? Or who thinks that the role of our military should be national defense, not the projection of power as cop of the world?
He's a piece of garbage who cares little about the sanctity of life and property rights. Needlessly putting our troops in harms way while expanding our military industrial complex. Never worked before, wont work now.
"God did not create this country to be a nation of followers. America is not destined to be one of several equally balanced global powers. America must lead the world, or someone else will. Without American leadership, without clarity of American purpose and resolve, the world becomes a far more dangerous place, and liberty and prosperity would surely be among the first casualties"
Does it ever register in this war mongers brain that the reason the world is more dangerous is because of our continued illegal occupation? Over 600,000 dead in the Middle East and he thinks that matters little. After all, those people in the Middle East are just filthy animals who do not deserve the respect and property rights given to human beings right?!!!!
You respect the borders of sovereign nations. You respect life. You lead by example. Force and coercion is not how society advances.

Having a strong military does not mean you have to use it. Strength can be a big deterent to war.
Romney is using his mouth to dig his grave. Can't believe that this guy is still in the running to be the Republican nominee. He's an idiot.
Also true is the typical Republican presidential trait of focusing on acting like swaggering pirates in flexing military might abroad as a way to avoid the glaring reality that the GOP is CLUELESS in how to solve the domestic problems that plague this nation.
Romney stinks. No wonder the GOP is desperately looking for damn near anyone else to be its nominee in the losing effort.
And Ron Paul is "un-electable" ... Because he wants to end ALL the illegal wars America is fighting all over the globe.
In other words republicans want "anyone else", except for someone who will do things differently than they are always done. Republicans want "anyone else" who will continue to tow the party line and start more wars and continue the same economic policy that got us into this mess to begin with.
Republicans want Change! As long as its more of the same ...

Agreed and that is why Ron Paul is for a strong defense, not offense. We are very, very offensive. Our foreign policy puts us at risk. We are less safe and have suffered more attacks since 9/11 than before.

The best deterrent I've found to war is peace.
Building back a strong military is not engaging in war. We have not suffered more attacks that have been successful since 9/11. That is just illogical to even say.

So 9/11 happens, and everyone gets scared and next thing you know we attack Iraq ...
Iraq never attacked us ... They didn't even have any "WMD's" ... !
What did america get out of fighting that war? What did we accomplish for the good of the Iraqi people? Are they safer now than before we attacked them? Is their economy better than it was before we attacked them?
Hmm ...
lets see, today there were 8 people killed in Iraq, due to ongoing unrest in the region that is the direct product of the american invasion after 9/11. 5 by gunfire and IED's in separate incidents ... 2 (a woman and a child) by IED ... And 1 by AED. And over 112,419 civilian casualties since the start of the war.
