Ron Paul: I thank the gentleman for yielding and I rise in strong support for H. Con. Res 51. We need to pass this resolution to send a very strong message. We have been told by those who oppose this message that we should not have an abrupt withdrawal from the region. But I would strongly suggest that what we should be talking about is the abrupt and illegal entry into war, that’s what we have to stop. Since we went in abruptly and illegally, we need to abruptly leave.
It has also been said by those who oppose this resolution that they can see that the Congress should assume their prerogatives over the war powers but do it gradually. I would strongly suggest that when we took our oath of office, we assumed that radically and suddenly, we took an oath of office to obey the constitution, not defer to the United Nations and that we already have assumed that responsibility, and I would also suggest if we do nothing, if we do not pass this resolution, it is the sin of omission that we commit. I yield back.

And risk garnering even more hatred from the Middle East and losing more American lives? No. The U.S. left Vietnam and look how it is today.

Well said – do people realize that Ron Paul is the only 2012 Presidential candidate who ever served in the military? He gets more in campaign donations from military personnel than all the other candidates do ! In his book,he says that all the wars are able to be fought because of the Fed – they just keep printing $ for these wars ( with agendas ) In the past, people were slower tot go to war because of the financial burdens which would bankrupt them – now , just print more -scam

if you live in a closed /semi closed primary state , you MUST register as a Republican in order to vote Ron Paul in the crucial primary election . I suspect RP has a lot of Dem supporters who may be disappointed when they go to the polls if they do not change party affiliations . The closed /SEMI CLOSED states are : AZ, CO, CT,DEL,FL,MA,MD,HI,PA,NY,NE,SD,UT,WV,KY,LA,OK,OR.
VOTE IN YOUR PRIMARY!!!!!!!

Let’s get off of the mindless “Support our Troops” mentality and demand a better Foreign policy. That’s really the best way to really support our troops. As a former Marine I would first of all want to know that what I am fighting for is just and that all measures were taken to prevent war and that it was declared by congress according to the constitution. The president is commander in chief when congress declares war not perpetually.
