LOUISVILLE, KY—Saying the current field lacks a contender who truly represents his principles, former congressman Ron Paul told reporters Tuesday that he would hold off on endorsing any presidential candidate until a true libertarian entered the race. “Unfortunately, right now there’s no one who entirely reflects my belief in the smallest government humanly possible,” said Paul, adding that it might be better to wait until the field of GOP contenders solidified rather than throw his support behind someone who doesn’t quite share his strict non-interventionist viewpoint or his desires to repeal federal drug laws and completely abolish the Federal Reserve. “My supporters are counting on me to back someone who’s going to stand up for the libertarian way full-time, and I just don’t see anyone who really deserves the Ron Paul seal of approval.” Paul went on to say that while he had been unsuccessful in three previous bids for president, he may not be able to sit this election out either.http://www.theonion.com/static/onion/img/terminator_1x.png

Satire and yet at the same time, very close to being true.

Very sagacious of him to do so; but alas, it will be a very long time till a true libertarian candidate will stand up.

Funny.

But Peter Schiff had some good comments the other day about how awesome it is going to be to have Ron Paul in the inner circle of the White House. That is pretty exciting in and of itself.

Shhh! That must stay under wraps until the last vote is counted. Boobus would not be pleased.
