I noticed a lack of Ron Paul supporters in this thread. Possibly it's because they don't know he wrote this bill or perhaps it's because they already know he's a crazy person with dangerous ideas and choose to avoid attempts to defend the indefensible. Either way, this should liven it up a bit.

You mean dangerous ideas like staying out of foreign conflicts, balancing the budget, bringing value back to US currency, lowering taxes, etc.

So who are you voting for? Obama?

I said in the original thread that I used to be a Paul supporter. I still like several of his ideas. But that doesn't mean that this proposal isn't batshit crazy. And I tend to like to check the box "not batshit crazy" on my politician checklist before voting for them.

Even with this law (which I don't think is really that bad, I must be missing the point) Paul is still a country mile ahead of any of his competitors. Obama will just be 4 more years of involvement in the middle east, debt spending (and debt ceiling raises), Patriot act, Obamacare and no change to the failing social security system...and Romney wouldn't be much better.
