Ron Paul Should be in an Asylum, Not Running for President

Thursday, December 27th, 2007

Its art imitating life. For years SNL has been running political campaign statements by ‘Tim Calhoun’, a fringe political candidate. Tim Calhoun’s views, however, are nothing compared to the GOP’s current Presidential candidate, the ‘crazy uncle’ of US politics, Ron Paul.

Interesting Article on Gun Control

Wednesday, December 19th, 2007
