The United States does not have the resources – or the right – to “fix” every injustice in the world. If some people in the United States feel they need to pledge their Lives, their Fortunes and their sacred Honor to a cause, let them do so. If enough Americans agree, Congress can lawfully declare a war.

The lives, fortunes, and sacred honor of other citizens are not yours to command.

And with this post, I am finished thread-jacking Stephen’s nice compliment to Shana.

Mr. Dondero, does Daniel Hannan, who said openly his ideal Republican choice would be Ron Paul, also fit in the “fat left” category then? I thought he was described as a hero of conservatives and libertarians with his very accurate description of and attack on PM Gordon Brown….

Your so called conservative administration of the 80′s helped supply the Hitler of our time when he was committing those acts which earned him that title. You’re a disingenuous party loyalist blowhard. Case closed.

And you should now support our brave Troops in Afghanistan and Iraq.

You cannot call yourself a libertarian and at the same time make apologies for Saddam Hussein and other Islamo-Fascists.

Blowhard? Yup. And I earned that right “buddy,” through 4 years of honorable service in the United States Navy, all shipboard, and at least 9 months in a War Zone.

P.S. This Dondero fella in the responses sounds like a real blowhard. Calling someone anti-American because they support a foreign policy which the supposed “un-Americans” feel would actually be better for America requires delusional thinking.

We all want what is best for America, buddy. Shut your mouth and open your eyes.

But I’m curious about your one statement about “Left Libertarians.”

Shana is by definition a Left Libertarian herself if she’s a supporter of Ron Paul. The Congressman, my Congressman in fact, takes a decidedly Far Left position on foreign policy advocating positions that amount to Anti-Americanism, and siding with Communinists and Pro-Islamo-Fascists in Congress like Maxine Waters, Kucininich, Sandra Levin, Bobby Rush, Keith Ellington, et.al.

Now, Paul is fantastic on domestic issues. But you can’t be a “half-way libertarian,” supporting freedom only on the domestic front.

So Shana should prove entirely acceptable to the Far Left Libertarians like George Phillies, Mary Ruwart, and that Surrenderist crowd. Far less so, to Right Libertarians.

Anyway, this one is all cleared up now now, but I’ve been writing since I woke up this morning, so I’m sure there are more out there.

I agree with you, Shana is already going places. I’ll bet that she’ll be going to really big places.
