Anyone here like Ron Paul?

[mindstalk]

A review of bills he's sponsored.

Bills to declare zygotes to be people, to ban flag burning, to remove abortion from the jurisdiction of inferior Federal courts, to defend the Electoral College, to repeal the "Motor Voter" act, to put us on a gold standard and ban fractional reserve banking. And I'm just listing things which might give an actual libertarian pause, never mind the other bills liberals/progressives would be horrified by.

[Update: the flag-burning amendments were apparently an attempt to get the Republicans to face up to the Constitution, or something, with Paul himself opposing banning flag-burning. So that's one libertarian point restored.]

Thanks muchly, I'm fairly sick of three of the libertarians on my f-list going on about how great he is. With luck, this will cause at least two of them to reconsider.
