How funny! About an hour ago I watched part of this exact video with my husband and I said, “whenever I listen to him (Ron Paul) speak, it is like a breath of fresh air”. Then I saw the title of this post and had to laugh. Apparently I’m not the only one who feels this way!

Ron Paul says:

It is conveniently ignored that the only authentic way to best support the troops is to keep them out of dangerous, undeclared, no-win wars that are politically inspired. Sending troops off to war for reasons that are not truly related to national security — and for that matter may even damage our security — is hardly a way to “patriotically” support the troops.

My husband is expecting a possible deployment to Iraq next year and we both loved this quote! If anyone out there sincerely want to support the troops, please consider voting for Ron Paul!
