Cute ...
I totally agree with Paul’s stance on drugs
the so called War on Drugs is a big govt joke
just another bloated bureaucracy in the name of “security”
Woodrow Wilson and FDR started the War on Drugs. Wilson and FDR were both Democrats who believed in a bigger federal goverment. Ron Paul believes in a smaller federal goverment.
I forget, which are conservatives supposed to be for, a smaller federal government or a bigger federal government?
If you listen to people around here, you’d think that conservativism was about bigger government.
