Ron Paul is cracking me up. He's nuts, of course, but he's not afraid to stand 180 degrees away from
the nine jackasses he's sharing the stage with.

1. I was impressed with his answer to the question about difficult decisions.
First he mentioned being a doctor, which I didn't know that about him. Then he said legislating puts him the position of making difficult decisions, nice to hear that he thinks about how his job impacts others. Then he said the decision to oppose the Invasion of Iraq from the first was one of the most difficult decisions to make.

Really, think of a guy such as he (and those Democrats in the House) who was/were against this Damned War, before it was okay to be against it. That would have been HARD.

My husband, a Libertarian, says Paul has survived a serious gerrymandering project conducted against him by Tom DeLay. That must mean Paul's Grassroots are deep. Interesting guy.
