Oh dear. I'm going to have to burst a bubble here. I hate doing this.

Ron Paul is not for freedom, unless your definition of freedom is narrowly defined and has nothing to do with any definition of freedom anyone else uses. Or you are a corporation.

Here is an extensive list of Ron Paul's record in Congress http://dneiwert.blogspot.com/2007/11...-congress.html

His ideological and personal links with the far right militia movement and Christian Reconstructionism can be found here http://dneiwert.blogspot.com/2007/06...rld-order.html

He's against abortion, against the right to take discrimination claims to court (presumably the free market fairy will do away with racism), wants to remove the minimum wage, wants to undermine labour unions to the point of ineffectiveness, wants to repeal antitrust laws, hates Iranian students (for some bizarre reason), hates the 14th Ammendment, wants to gut environmental protections even more than Bush did, promotes the pointless offshore drilling plan, wants to withdraw from the ABM treaty, wants a little imperial war to seize the Panama Canal again and wants to forbid Federal funding to any organization showing a level of tolerance towards homosexuality.
