In listening to the saber rattling coming from these Republican candidates, I am of the opinion that all wish to police the world and use our military to further imprint our way of life on other countries namely the Middle East. As the domestic agenda suffers at home, one has to ask these candidates; what about our way of life?
Have these Republican candidates learned nothing from our illegal invasion into Iraq? The only one who did not vote to authorize our invasion was Rep. Ron Paul of Texas. In fact, he was the only candidate that reminded all of us of the value of our United States Constitution which has been ripped to shreds during this current Republican administration. Paul even reminded all of Habeas Corpus which makes us very American. It defines us from the terrorists we are currently fighting.
While candidates such as former Gov. Jim Gilmore, former NYC mayor, Rudy Giuliani, former Gov. Mitt Romney, former Gov. Mike Huckabee, and former Gov. Tommy Thompson were not authorized to vote for this invasion, I did not hear a real change in direction from the current Bush policy. Senator John McCain, Rep. Tom Tancredo, Sen. Sam Brownback and Rep. Duncan Hunter who voted for this war want to continue our military presence in that country.
