I hate to say it but Ron Paul is correct

[malaise]

The Middle East has been a disaster for US Foreign Policy.

1. easy to be obvious, mr paul. i don't buy his solution...just to walk away.

it's not quite that easy....unfortunately

[Selatius]

11. We can't walk away because we have to much invested in their oil.

Our national infrastructure is built around interstates. Yeah, it's not going to be easy at all.

2. It's been a huge win for the arms industry, though

The more unstable and bellicose the politics, the more sales of arms and security services.

Follow the money...

7. Really! Defense contractors have ripped us off to the tune of $285 billion in three years!

And now the GOP/Tea Baggers want to cut beneficial programs to make up for it.

Hey, Congress! Just go back to the criminal contractors and get the money back!!!

9. don't forget the Oil Industry...

Our treasurer spent and literally transfered to the international oil companies....

[maxsolomon]

3. Its been a disaster for British Foreign Policy, French Foreign Policy,

etc.

Because the ME is a disaster.

[onehandle]

4. Yeah, but gas is still only $1.46 a gallon like it was when Bill Clinton left office.

So it was worth it.

Oh, wait...

5. He's a complete isolationist

He's the stopped clock - right twice a day.

[wilt the stilt]

8. Ron Paul is living in the 1890"S n/t

[IrishBuckeye]

10. That's something John Madden would say. the proper response is 'no shit'

Jimmy Carter told us that 30 some years ago.
