4 juillet 2010<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00abDISSENT IN THE RANKS<\/em><\/strong>: There are a handful of conservatives who have stood up against the rise of ultra-hawks in their movement. While most Republicans were either staying neutral or demanding Steele’s resignation, Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) a longtime Iraq war foe defended the embattled chairman, saying that he is absolutely right and that Republicans should stick by him. In a private e-mail obtained by the Huffington Post, Jon Fleischman, the vice chairman of the California GOP, is quoted expressing the same skepticism about the war as Steele. For what it is worth, I’m an officer with the CA Republican Party and I can’t figure out what we are achieving in Afghanistan, he wrote. And during the recent vote on the war supplemental bill, nine House Republicans joined nearly 2\/3 of the House Democratic caucus to vote for the McGovern-Obey amendment that would have required Obama to submit a timetable for withdrawal from Afghanistan. Although nearly every Republican in Congress voted to authorize Bush to attack Iraq, and most major conservative institutions like the American Enterprise Institute and the Heritage Foundation backed the war, a handful of conservative voices, like the libertarian CATO Institute and paleoconservative The American Conservative magazine, strongly opposed the conflict. While it is clear that the conservative movement has an obsession with war, the American people do not. A recent USA Today\/Gallup poll found that 58 percent of Americans agree with Obama’s stated timeline of July 2011 to begin a withdrawal from Afghanistan. It is up to the President to hold to the timeline and provide an alternative to the right’s foreign policy philosophy and addiction to war.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\n
