Rand Paul questions Democrats on war via his Facebook

[LP2K12]

31. I didn't post the article.

I posted a screenshot of a status that was include in my feed under "You might like this..."

I specifically avoided linking to the update or to the DailyBeast article.

I supported President Obama in the election because like many other's who graduated when I did, I voted for Bush because I thought it was the cool thing to do. We had been attacked, I enlisted and it seemed like the right choice. There was no research into it. It was "Oh, hey... everyone else is doing it."

I went to an Obama rally in Tampa. I genuinely trusted him when he spoke. Did I agree with everything he said? No. However, I figured based upon what I heard from him that he was the best choice to get my battle buddies out of two wars they didn't need to be in. For the most part, I believe he's done his best to bring them home.

I also voted for him because I work in health care and I was tired of seeing my patient's denied coverage or losing equipment because they can't afford it. Was the ACA my ideal version of health care for our country? No, but again it's a step in the right direction. Many have asked why I didn't align with Romney because of Romneycare and for me it just came down to not trusting the man when he spoke.

Bumping over to Charlie Crist is the same thing... sure he's a flip-flopper, but compared to Rick Scott, he's a saint. I've seen so many friends give up on their careers as teachers because of that man. He's horrible for Florida.

I guess I could go independent, but those candidates never win. The high profile Libertarians such as Ron Paul and his son are too extreme for my tastes (as a veteran I believe drones have their place and why wouldn't you use a drone instead of a soldier). I could get into how I believe the war in Afghanistan was necessary, but Iraq wasn't... but then again, who really cares about that.
