The guy sitting in the middle

asked a really good question about how the neo-con view on foreign policy has permeated its way into mainstream republican thinking over the past decade and I wish Dr Paul would have directly answered it. A good answer to that would have gone a long way to showing that republicans used to be against foreign interventionism. I mean the American people elected Republicans to end Korea and Vietnam, two wars that Democrats got us into along with WWI. Regean withdrew from Beirut after the attack on the Marine Barracks and later said the Middle East is basically impossible to figure out and we should leave it alone. Dr Paul made great points and this is one of his best interviews by far but I think he dropped the ball a little but by not directly answering that question.

I have to return some videotapes...
