Ron Paul thought the Oklahoma City Bombing was a government conspiracy

Of all the candidates still in the race for president, I’d say that Ron Paul is one of my favorites. I like his overall consistency, his opposition to the Patriot Act and his admission that the "War on Drugs" is a failure. I also like his inability to ever win a presidential election.

But other than that, I’m not too fond of the extremist right-wing politician from Texas. His dream of an American Libertarian society is impractical and superficial, his stance on foreign policy is nuts, and he reminds me of one of those government conspiracy theorists who sleeps with tin foil on his head and passes out open currency pamphlets at state fairs and gun shows.
