Now that the $700 billion bailout is a fait accompli, it has never been more important to keep vigilant, and to vote in November. It is difficult not to become utterly discouraged knowing that the huge majority of our legislators approved a $700-billion bailout, ignoring unprecedented opposition to the bill, HR 3997, by the huge majority of Americans. But crumbling into a feeling of helpless apathy in the face of this civic betrayal is precisely what we cannot allow ourselves to do, because this is just the beginning of a terrible tide of usurpation of power, assets, and ultimately liberties in this country.
Ron
Paul, the 10-term Republican congressman from Texas, is running for
president, and his candidacy warrants much more exposure than the
mainstream media has afforded the voting public. Dr. Paul, an OB/GYN
and former Air Force flight surgeon, has a sterling conservative,
limited-government voting record over 20 years. The Wall
Street Journal wrote last
week, "As the GOP front-runners address crowds of dispirited
primary voters, Mr. Paul has been tearing across the country, leaving
a trail of passionate devotees in his wake."
