The Daily Caller’s Jamie Weinstein speaks for a lot of Republican voters when he says Ron Paul’s foreign policy is a non-starter. But Weinstein’s claim that non-interventionism would have led to “the Nazi Century” is simply a misreading of history.
Reporters routinely describe Ron Paul's foreign policy views as "isolationist" because he opposes the promiscuous use of military force. This is like calling him a recluse because he tries to avoid fistfights.
As usual, it seems Dr. Paul's anti military-empire rhetoric draws the most ire. A prominent public person can almost guarantee attacks if he or she begins to criticize America's military-industrial complex.

The Top 10 is almost always awkward no matter who does it, and yet (or perhaps because of this) Mitt Romney managed to almost seem human. Highlight: "Isn’t it time for a president who looks like a 1970s game show host?”
