Ron Paul: The Real "Rock Star" of the Right
Yay! President Ron Paul is a Rock Star!
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robert...k_b_64479.html
Who would believe that the candidate generating buzz and excitement on the 2008 Republican presidential campaign trail is a seventy-two year old medical doctor from a small town in Texas?
Who would believe that a libertarian who is calling for the immediate withdrawal of American troops from not only Iraq but from all of the Middle East has a large following among younger voters?
Who would believe that a man calling for a return to the gold standard and who favors no entangling alliances would be raising a good deal of money on the Internet?
Is Congressman Ron Paul surprised by his new popularity?

Weakest argument ever.Dude, you're seriously sounding like a lovestruck teenage girl. Calm down.
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

At least three according to recent polls.Apparently at least one of us think he is hot
However, unless you believe that RS himself wrote the article, then it is not likely that he is "sounding" anything of the sort.
As I said, weakest argument ever.

Oblique, eh? As in "not parallel or perpendicular"?
Okay. If you say so.

Well, I had thought it was the weakest argument ever, but then you had to go and pull a trump card on it.
