12. One must only look at certain websites idolizing Paul.
Like the site you noted. They're not much for supporting those who don't have like minded opinions.

19. For a guy who claims to support the Constitution so much ...
... I'm surprised by how little he supports democracy.

15. A lot of people here are "fans" of the old racist. I don't get it, myself.
They're ignoring a big chunk of his rather unprogressive persona.

16. Probably because many aren't "fans" but recognize
the few areas in foreign policy and Constitutional restraints he gets right. That's a far cry from being an libertarian like he is.

23. I am not sure what part of his persona is progressive
I suppose some view his isolationist views as progressive or something. He is a libertarian jerkwad....

20. THANK YOU!
I had heard for years that this guy was some brilliant guru, but if you have ever seen him interrogate witnesses on the committee(s) he sits on, the guy is ridiculous and ignorant.

It's shocking when you see it.

What is there to worship about this clown? Clue me in, because I don't get it. I would go so far as to call him incompetent when it comes to sitting on committees involving financial, economic issues.

That's just my two cents.

They are the most similar to cult-followers of all the self-proclaimed rugged individualists out there. Shit, that nut whose books these types all masturbate to, Ayn Rand, she didn't even like her followers having different tastes from hers when it came to books, music, movies etc.
