Why Ron Paul attracts some liberals.

[MineralMan]

6. It's odd that you would mention "civil liberties" in

connection with Ron Paul. He does not support civil liberties at all, unless you are white and a libertarian. His racism is well-known. I doubt that he is much of a fan of women's rights, and he's pretty silent on LGBT issues.

Civil rights is not a single issue. It is an all-encompassing issue, and Paul only supports civil rights in a Libertarian sense. What that means is that if an individual wants to act according to his or her prejudices, that's just fine with Ron Paul. Ron Paul is great on state's rights, but a loser on civil rights. He'll let you use drugs if you like, and that's about it.

I can think of nothing more important that an across-the-board attitude about civil rights. Paul's piecemeal support is a sham, and that's all it is.

You say he's intoxicating? So is meth. I'm not having either, thanks.

Condemning Ron Paul with praise is not on, as far as I'm concerned. Not on at all. And that's exactly what you're doing in this post.

"I hate Ron Paul, but hey, look at all these cool things about him..."

No, thank you very much.

FRP!
