Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) stood his ground
and joined the twenty-or-so other Republicans
that have decided to vote with the House
Democrats in favor of a non-binding Iraq
resolution that condemns President Bush's
troop surge.
Speaking of Bush, Congressman Paul was very
straight-forward in his displeasure for
Bush's "demented philosophy of conquest."
Here is a portion of his floor speech:
RON PAUL: "In recent decades, our policies
have been driven by neoconservative empire
radicalism; profiteering in the military
industrial complex; misplaced do-good
internationalism; mercantilistic notions
regarding the need to control natural
resources; and blind loyalty to various
governments in the Middle East."
You can add Ron Paul's name to the small list
of the few level-headed Republicans left in
Congress.
