Obama vs Ron Paul : both hold positions anathema to liberals.

[ProSense]

1. Oh

another in the long line of "liberals not hyping Ron Paul." It has been said they don't exists.

Anyway, Sirota:

"That said, I believe the argument being forwarded by progressive-minded Paul supporters is significant because it embodies a calculating pragmatism that highlights uncomfortable truths both about liberal priorities and about presidential power."

Nothing about Ron Paul's positions have anything to do with "liberal priorities"

While we're debating the degree to which Obama is not perfect (http://www.democraticunderground.com/100233108), Republicans are chosing between Ron Paul and the other corporate tools who want to eliminate corporate taxes, keep oil subsidies and tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas, and agree to whatever else is in Grover Norquist's pledge.

The idea that some of Ron Paul's views should be heralded because they sound good is preposterous.

These articles are basically comparing Obama's positions to selected soundbites from Paul's propaganda.

Why?
