Invasion and occupation to capture random individuals around the world is insanity. Fantastic article, especially the letters of marque bit.

I'm apart of a 912 group (lots of Tea Party folks) and have taken a similar approach since some of these folks will never listen to reason (of Jeffersonian non-intervention), while we are able to win over those who take an objective approach to foreign policy. Ron Paul made excellent points about the "cost" that we must consider even if you are a saber-rattle-war-hawk fella. That math doesn't add up. So, if we're going to be talking about fiscal responsibility, we need to be honest across the board. I feel the letters of marque are a better way to fight unconventional warfare since we are bleeding money with our military empire. Good stuff. God Bless.

At CPAC, a lot of the establishment-type DC Republicans scoffed at Ron Paul's foreign policy. They may never come around, but I think that the Tea Party movement represents a step in the right direction, and some of the Tea Partiers are willing to subject themselves to reason and "step outside the box" in order to limit an obviously out-of-control government, especially when the Constitutional facts are presented to them. Our job is to get those facts in front of those who will listen. Thanks Andy – good article by you as well, and it does touch on a lot of the same points.

They are just as much trash as Democrats. What people have to understand is that conservatives are different than Republicans are different than libertarians are different than liberals are different than Democrats. The Tea Party is not the GOP, and many in the TP would just as well be happy if the GOP went away. Why do you assume he's a Republican? They are just as much trash as Democrats.
