Ron Paul Votes to Kill Americans

"Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) plans to force a vote on his resolution to nix a recently finalized Environmental Protection Agency rule that mandates cuts in power plant air pollution that blows across state lines."

"EPA estimates that the Cross-State measure will prevent up to 34,000 premature deaths, 15,000 nonfatal heart attacks, 19,000 cases of acute bronchitis, 400,000 cases of aggravated asthma, and 1.8 million sick days annually beginning in 2014, according to an agency summary."

Ron Paul's Anti Sanctions Makes Sense

I'm a fan of anyone who has good ideas and stands up for them, regardless of their price on popularity.  Ron Paul does owns this slim sector of politics.  I like almost all his ideas (all except his deregulation of toxins - because it kills Americans).  Check out his thoughtful protest to sanctions:


“Sanctions do not work. They are precursors to war and usually lead to war. They undermine our economy and our national security. They result in terrible, unnecessary suffering among the civilian population in the target countries and rarely even inconvenience their leaders. We must change our foreign policy from one of interventionism and confrontation to cooperation and diplomacy. This race to war against Iran is foolhardy and dangerous. As with the war on Iraq, the arguments for further aggression and war on Iran are based on manipulations and untruths. We need to learn our lesson and reject this legislation and the push for war.”
