He should have respected the property rights of white Southerners. Those poor oppressed slaveholders.”

No, he should have respected the Constitution and the limitations it imposes on government. If government had a real excuse for stepping outside its constitutional bounds every time some does something despicable … well, we would end up exactly where we are today – with the full support of a majority of so-called conservatives, I might add.

Ron Paul is the anti-Lincoln. I respect him for that, and so will millions of grass roots Republicans who were forced to watch “their” president singlehandedly decosntruct what was left of conservatism, the border, and common sense in the Republican Party.

It is the party of Lincoln, who singlehandedly did more to kill the idea of limited government than even both Clintons and George Bush, II. have dared to dream.

Do not underestimate Ron Paul. He was “redistricted” back in 2002 in an attempt to remove him from Congress – and he won with a 67% landslide despite that fact. The press can silence him by ignoring him as it always has – but he is a force to be reckoned with.

I would also rather vote for a man with principles and character, even knowing the odds were stacked against him, just as I wrote today in my own similar article.

The neo-libertarians are thinking that because Rudy is fiscally-conservative (yes he did cut taxes, but he was also a big spender) and socially-liberal (they forget though that social liberalism has its own statist tendencies); he’s somehow pro-liberty.

I’m sorry, but no one who is a proponent of libertarianism would back a statist like Rudy.

That’s why we have so many neo-libertarians backing Rudy Guiliani.

On the other hand, if Iraq is not a major issue by 2008…..
