who is this Ron Paul you speak of? I've never heard of him. You mentioned a site about him you were working on, is it up?

I don't have a site on him yet. I am gonna work on a piece about him.

 

He's a Republican-Libertarian Congressman from Texas. He stands behind a lot of the traditional conservative viewpoints like little federal government, lots of personal freedoms, military isolationism except for provocation, fiscal responsibility etc. His official site is http://www.house.gov/paul/

 

He writes pretty regularly for a Libertarian run online journal www.antiwar.com and has spoken out quite vocally against the PATRIOT Act, the war in Iraq and George W. Bush's huge government increases because of their intrusions on personal freedom, short sighted foreign policy that did not attack the threat that attacked us and because government should be small...not having a 43% increase in government like Bush has done.

 

I don't agree with him on everything but he is pretty cool and I like a lot of what he has to say especially about personal freedoms where I stand just about 100% with the Libertarian party.

 

He's the neo-conservatives' worst nightmare because he stands up for what the real Republican party is supposed to stand for before it was highjacked by the neo-conservative movement.

Looking at flip flops on issues, isn't that inherit with liberals and maybe not a negative thing. Conservatives tend to want things to stay the same, hold traditional values and ideals. Liberals will want to tinker, try new things, never satisfied with the current, but looking for ways to make it better. In a changing world, we need both.
