Chaos On The GOP Convention Floor

The part that scares me is when they talk about stuff like the heavy emphasis on "strengthening our military." Aren't they suppose to be the ones to reduce spending? I know Paul Ryan is one of the few members of the GOP with enough guts to even talk about auditing the pentagon and limiting military spending but it looks like every one else is itching to go to war with Iran.

Do they not remember Iraq where they tortured people to get them to say the information they wanted to hear and ended up spending a trillion dollars to essentially kill one evil dictator that did not have any nuclear weapons due to unreliable information that was gathered by torture.

4 years later begging for a second chance and I just can't help but shake the feeling that they're going to repeat the same stupid mistakes.

At this rate I'm starting to wonder if we're better off electing Obama. At least then gay marriage will have a shot and Roe vs Wade won't be overturned by the GOP "activist judges."

Rand Paul has also been a proponent of keeping the Pentagon in check....and I agree.

Also, Iraq was based on intel from Clinton hold-over George Tenat and had massive bi-partisan support.

If ObamaCare survived the SCOTUS, no way Roe v. Wade comes anywhere close to being overturned.

Can you post any links of Mit or Ryan itching to go to war with Iran. You can support a strong military and make it stronger by auditing the pentagon. If the Military has a budget of a certain $ amount every dollar of waste found in an audit is another dollar that they can spend on something else.

Romney, Gingrich at GOP debate: We'd go to war to keep Iran from getting nuclear weapons - Political Hotsheet - CBS News

Updated Nov. 13, 1:00 a.m. Eastern Time

SPARTANBURG, S.C. -- Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich said at the Republican presidential debate here Saturday night that they would be willing to go to war to keep Iran from attaining nuclear weapons if all other strategies failed.

Romney said that if "crippling sanctions" and other strategies fail, military action would be on the table because it is "unacceptable" for Iran to become a nuclear power.

That's not what Mit said here is what he siad:

Romney said that if "crippling sanctions" and other strategies fail, military action would be on the table because it is "unacceptable" for Iran to become a nuclear power.

He never said he would go to war with iran he said the option would be on the table. Stop twisting their words to make it what you want.

These people need to take their vote away from the Republican party and put it elsewhere. Once the Republicans lose that vote, they'll be forced to contend with the RP supporters.
