Ron Paul being the only member of Congress our Founders would not EXECUTE

Anatomy of the Ron Paul Nation

Naturally I had a nice time hanging with the Four Figure Donor Crowd, which like any such event gets you a handshake, a few words, and a picture with the candidate. Nice speech, nice time, nice man. Ron Paul holds the distinction of being, in my opinion, probably the only member of Congress our Founders would not find cause to put a bullet into.

I read that and got a good chuckle out of it. Too true, and a cool article.

There's actually a portion of the U.S. Code that sets a maximum penalty of execution for violating the Constitution. I know its in there, but I've had a hard time locating it again. I'll keep looking.

From what I've read on the web, Ron Paul attracts a rather … umm … oddball sort of crowd, so to speak. From the attractive brunette bartender who, along with drinks, served warnings of a "one world government" to our new friend Casey Holland telling us, in amazing detail, how 9-11 was a set-up, be forewarned that when Ron Paul supporters gather, conspiracy theories will fall like manna from heaven. Since I've read Harvard professor Bernard Bailyn's Ideological Origins of the American Revolution, in which he devotes an entire section to our Founder's unshakable belief in conspiracies, I found this trait more admirable than amusing. Judging by our history books, which are littered with politically sponsored bloodbaths, viewing the political class with extreme suspicion and distrust seems only rational.

Whenever anyone uses that oddball, lunatic line on me, I just say, "Yeah, that's what the others call 'diversity!'"
