Lol Rand Paul. I hope he gets the nomination, he is a good bulls eye. A lot of shit will stick on him.

The GOP should at least give the Dems a challenge for the White House in 2016. There has to be some talent there somewhere....why do first term senators keep coming up in the conversation? Cruz, Paul, Rubio, all political noobs and complete nobodies yet but their names keep coming up. I know you guys have somebody with a resume somewhere.

They put a flaming murderous lying big-government tyrant in office.

Sure he is. Do you think that he doesn't have an (R) buy his name? That (R) always shows that any talk of smaller government is a complete lie. The (R) might as well stand for Reagan, the king of that lie.

So its impossible that a smaller government advocate can be a republican?

That is not why Japan was sanctioned. Japan was sanctioned because the they were America's rival in the pacific and the US couldn't fight back. And America was doing just as bad things to Fillipino's.


The Philippine rebellion had been surpressed, the United States government won over the Philippino population by investing in education and anti-poverty measures, as well as by implementing the rule of law.

Meanwhile Japan was militarizing, engineering false-flags to occupy foreign territory, and promptly launched a brutal invasion of mainland China which would cost millions of lives. Public opinion in the United States was with the Chinese, and Japanese militarism threatened American national security interests in the region.

There's a reason 85% of the Philippino population is pro-American today, and why Japan is still loathed in broad swathes of Asia today; its not because they were morally equivalent actors.

and you dont think telling them what they should do didnt piss them off?


So what? Just because somebody demands the right to rape children doesn't make it permissible. You put these powers down like you would a rabid dog.

Isolations like Cambo and Rand want to believe that other powers are free to be as brutally interventionist as they want, but that we must be constrained by non-aggression even in the face of aggression.

I don't want to live in that world, peace is only maintained at the barrel of a gun.
