    Ping, confirms his use of "neocon" as well. Seems ron paul supporters have a real issue with Jews.

    smatts, I reject your blame America first rhetoric. I freely admit that ron paul supporters do not want victory. They do not want honor. They want defeat, despite that we have already defeated al qaida in Iraq. They long for defeat, and are disappointed that violence is down, progress is being made, and Iraqis are standing up and taking their country back from extremists.

    For democrats, who also wanted defeat, they've had to lay off the rhetoric of pretending to care, because the success is so overwhelming right now, they simply cannot use it as an anti-war tool. Ron Paul obviously hasn't figured this out yet. He still wants that defeat, and he'll fight for America's defeat at all costs.

    Fortunately, ron paul isn't a factor. His fifth place showing clearly illustrates that real Americans are not interested in his "blame America first" message, and his sincere desire for America to be defeated. I suspect even more people, than after Iowa, will be departing from the "revolution" after New Hampshire. America is not about defeat, self-loathing, and blaming itself first. As Iowa proved, it's a small fringe group that thinks like this.

    Ping, do you want a defeat for the US?

    Do you believe, even despite the success in Iraq and the defeat of al qaida there, that America still deserves a defeat?

    Is that what you want, so that you can have talking points for the next twenty years that mirror your talking points today?

    Answer.

    If it is success, how can it be a defeat?

    I'd like an answer on whether or not "pride" is a sin, in the GTech bible.

    Why can't you answer my yes or no question about the Shah of Iran?
