I'm no fan of Libertarian ideology, but I admire Ron Paul for defending civil liberties. He is a true champion of freedom. So where are all the lefties who passionately denounced Bush for the Patriot Act and Hillary for "Authorization for Use of Military Force but haven't handed Obama his ass for becoming America's first dictator? Oh I forgot...Obots have nothing to worry about. Obama plays three-dimensional chess! If his mask slips, just look away. It's all good.
