MORE RON PAUL

I liked this article.

Ron Paul is Blowing Up Real Good

Paul is a libertarian. A lot of me is too I guess.

I am so far left that I meet myself coming around the other end.

He's the only Republican candidate who wants to end U.S. involvement in Iraq and withdraw the U.S. Navy from the waters off the Iranian coast. He wants America to pull out of the United Nations, NATO, the International Criminal Court, and most international trade agreements. He wants to abolish FEMA, end the federal war on drugs, get rid of the Department of Homeland Security, send the U.S. military to guard the Mexican border, stop federal prosecutions of obscenity, eliminate the IRS, end most foreign aid, overturn the Patriot Act, phase out Social Security, revoke public services for illegal immigrants, repeal No Child Left Behind, and reestablish gold and silver as legal tender.

I don't know if I would go that far.

But I sure like the impulse behind all this.

He has found a platform and he is going to use it.

Rudy tried to smack him in the debate and it backfired.

Paul came up with some books for Rudy to read and got a lot of interviews.

He did something others seem loathe to do which is call Giuliani on his shit.

This will be interesting.

Wait until we get the canned ham Thompson in there.
