Mr. Buchanan:
I’m am a longtime supporter of you and your thinking. Unless I have been fooled all these years, and that is possible, it appears that you are in favor of Rand Paul’s position [“GOP platform: War without end”.
As ex-military, my initial reaction is to strike and strike hard. Kill everything that offers any resistance. However, with our treasonous commander in chief and his Cabinet, I would have ZERO confidence that they would put forward the effort needed to win a war. That’s my thought after some reflection.
We haven’t won a war since World War II, and it was not the ground commanders’ fault. If we’re not going to go into another war to win, my position is to stay home, secure our borders and rebuild our military so if the other shoe drops we’ll be ready.
I stand with the Paul strategy; it’s not our war and we’re not the world police force. I’ll not vote to send another one of our young men to sacrifice their lives unless and only when we are ready and willing to WIN!
Thank you for all these years of sound thinking and good moral judgment.
Thomas H. Nienburg Sr.
