Conservative Economist Milton Friedman on What Killed the Republican Party

Tuesday July 25, 2006
"What's really killed the Republican Party isn't spending. It's Iraq.

As it happens, I was opposed to going into Iraq from the beginning. I think it was a mistake, for the simple reason that I do not believe the United States of America ought to be involved in aggression. "

Nobel Prize winning economist Milton Friedman , July 22, 2006 in the Wall Street Journal.Dr. Friedman, a Republican, served as a member of President Ronald Reagan's Economic Policy Advisory Board, and in 1988 he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Of course, the anti-semites will use any forum to attack and lie about Israel. Even one as unrelated as Bush and Iraq. So much hate. So much ignorance.
