Nice race Steve! You've got a lot of heart and your blog is motivating.

Good luck with the recovery.

Hey- I put this on my blog in response to your Ron Paul question:

Steve- good question. In my opinion, though, Iran hasn't really threatened to start any wars. Read this article and let me know what you think- it turns the table and I think lets us Americans see events from another perspective:

Iran may talk tough to present a strong front, but they aren't the one that has invaded 2 countries in the middle east, is actively killing people in 4 more, and has killed (murdered) hundreds of thousands of people.

Regarding pacificism and WW2- try this perspective:

Jon-Yes, I have read Lew Rockwell's writing on WW2 and the interesting scenario concerning Iran and the USA.

The political machinations of foreign policy amongst the various nations before and during WW2 were VERY COMPLEX.. And none of us have the total hindsight along with all of the facts to fully understand these tactics and intentions.

So that being said I want to say that I had a grandfather who was a paratrooper during D-Day and who used to tell me stories of some of his experiences during that time. Some were pretty shocking. In light of that and the evidence of what took place I have to ask you this question; Would you have preferred an alternative outcome? I don't agree with Rockwell when he asserts that Germany was only interested in power at home. Hitler was in fact absolutely hell bent on reshaping the entire planet into his own perverted vision.

From Jon on Sun, Oct 23, 2011 at 09:09:04 from 74.177.82.194

I won't disagree that Hitler wasn't a nice guy. Evil. Once he started invading, something needed to be done. I guess one point would be that it was the end of WWI that set the stage for Hitler's rise to power. WWII was basically a continuation of WWI- and it's too bad WWI happened in the first place. That was the first big avoidable mistake.

Yes Jon, I agree on that point. It just concerns me a bit that Paul may go too soft on foreign policy when it really counts. However.. I still believe after looking at all of the other candidates and weighing our options I would back a Ron Paul presidency:) I mean look at what we have to choose from.. More typical GOP good old boys/made men or someone who at least says what he really believes and intends on doing.. Hmm..

Not to mention the fact that his constitutional philosophy is sound, correct and straight forward. Yes?

From Rob Murphy on Thu, Nov 10, 2011 at 20:07:13 from 76.27.122.13

The very men who wrote the Constitution were arguing about the "correct constitutional philosophy" before the ink was dry on the thing. I suppose it's natural that we would wrestle with it 224 years later.

From Rob Murphy on Wed, Nov 23, 2011 at 18:42:32 from 76.27.122.13

OK. A week is up now. I'd like to see some blogging.

Hope everything is all right.
