I am amused by all the libertarians and anarchists fawning over Ron Paul given his stance on immigration:

He is wrong on immigration. I have no problem admitting that, and I said so to my friends when discussing Paul. Dead wrong on one issue. He's right on just about everything else though. This makes him a lot closer to my views than any other D or R I ever read about, Goldwater included.

This thread is bookmarked for the next time an ACist says "the lesser of two evils is still evil!" [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

So welcome to our world (our world = voters who admit that candidates take stupid, mindless positions, but that it can be reasonable to vote for them anyway for practical reasons).

Bookmark it all you want, Paul is not the lesser of two evils, he is right on the vast majority of issues, all the evil politicians I know of are wrong on the vast majority. Supporting one of THOSE anyway is picking the lesser of two evils.

Also IF I vote for Paul, it will not be for a practical reason (I rationally understand it is a waste of my time) but a quite irrational one.
