Filibuster Cartoons

I’ll tell you who I don’t like- Ron Paul. The libertarian Texas Congressman who is currently running for the Republican Party presidential nomination. He’s quite popular with much of the online set, but not me.
His big thing is isolationism. He opposes the Iraq war, which he views to be an imperialist war for oil. He also thinks terrorists only attack America because Americans “meddle” too much overseas. His solution is to pull the US out of every foreign obligation, partnership, and alliance previous presidents have spent centuries building up.
Dr. Paul also favors the abolishment of all federal programs and is a Confederate apologist. So he basically combines the worst rhetoric of the far-left and the far-right into one throughly unappealing, immature political agenda. Thankfully he’s only polling at 2%.
