General Sherman said, "Newspaper reporters are worse than spies," and I agree with him. Do I support freedom of the press? Absolutely. I know who I choose to listen to and believe. The popular news media is a great intelligence test. Knowing that the news will lie in order to sell papers is a great tool to have at one's disposal.

Isolationist! You don't think we should send our troops over without congressional consent to protect some foreign government. This sounds familiar. As for staying in Korea, it seems as though he was right on.

Taft was what Buchanan was to the conservative movement in the 1990s and Ron Paul is to the current movement, the very heart of the movement.

The local ID at the start sounds like a young Vic Roby.

Wow just change Soviet Union to Iran and you get a lot of the talk about the world today.

Sounds like he's fielding the same dumb dumb accusations of isolationism that Ron Paul faces today. Taft was awesome.
