On Paul

Let me be perfectly clear: I lost any supportive tendency whatsoever I might have had for Rep. Ron Paul when, in the Summer of 2006, he voted AGAINST renewing the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Man, you'd think, with all the assaults on (especially minority) voters' rights since 2000, Dr. Paul would have the decency to try to make voting easier, not harder! Yes, Rep. Paul has some good notions on foreign policy, like ending our multi-trillion dollar boondoggle wars of choice. But I don't like or respect his domestic agenda of MASSIVE privatization at the expense of the public good. And while Paul claims that he wants to keep Big Gov't out of our lives, he objects to a woman exercising the right to choose whether to end her unwanted pregnancy. NO THANKS, Ron!
