Why Ron Paul's newfound power both pleases and worries libertarians.

Slate piece on the recent power of oversight of the Federal Reserve ending up in the hands of Ron Paul -- LINK. While I recommend reading it, what I find most amusing is the assumption that if you are a Libertarian you automatically support Ron Paul.

Then again there's the assumption if you are a Democrat or Republican you automatically support everything elected Democrats or Republicans do.

What it will be is interesting ...

Weigel has always had Ron Paul issues. Not sure why. He comes off as jealous, but surely that isn't it?

I don't think that's all of it, but that is a valid point to raise. You always have to stop and consider the source.
