Neocons shudder! Rand Paul grills Samantha Powers: War can’t make the world a ‘great groovy place’

Sen. Rand Paul didn’t miss a beat as he launched into a grilling of President Obama’s nominee for U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. It was a theme often sounded by his father, Rep. Ron Paul. If not anti-war, certainly anti-stupid-war and strongly opposed to foreign aid. UPDATE: Tonight, Sen. Paul was featured in a live interview with FreedomWorks stay tuned for a video update.

These aren’t geo-political games, and they aren’t things that we can say, ‘Oh we’re going to make the world, you know, this great groovy place where nobody has any human rights abuses, but we’re going to do it through war,’
