    • I think this was a truthful speech and we have problems to solve we could have used the 3 trillion spent on this war for USA Nuclear upgrades. BUT BUSH LIED TO US!

      THIS WAR killed 1 million civilians.

      During the most devastating natural disaster in our lifetime, an attempted overthrow of one of the worst governments in history, skyrocketing oil and food prices, historically high unemployment, falling house prices, a stock market that can't find gains - it's upsetting to hear the leader of the free world speaking out on College Basketball's Final Four.

    • One other point....
      Liberterians are in need of a 21st century reformation. Their issues and approach to them don't match the realities of the 21st century; although, he's spot on with respect to endless wars and empire!

    • Nice rant!

      Too bad Mr. Paul seems to have followed up later with nonsense about the reactions to the nuclear power accident in Japan being overblown.

    • Ron Paul for president! I love how we will "liberate" Iraq when they are not even asking for it but Libya and Bahrain are begging for us to liberate them from totalitarian regimes and we "Do not want to interfere with soviergn nations" What a load of Bullshit!

    • FUND PEOPLE, NOT WARS! I've been emailing this to my congressmen and the president for months, years. There is no credible reason not to bring the troops home now. If we can't afford to feed, shelter, educate and otherwise care for those within the United States, the taxpayer shouldn't be spending money defending oil profits in the Middle East. Bring them home now, is the only rational solution.
