Later today, Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) will become the second presidential candidate to cross a Writer’s Guild of America picket line to appear on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.” Tonight’s appearance will not be the first time Paul crosses a picket line for a TV interview. In December, he appeared on CBS’s The View despite the show’s striking writers. Asked about the strike, Paul told Reason that he “doesn’t care about the unions or the pickets.”

emphasis mine.

Well, at least he didn't do a Huckachuck and vow to stand with the writers, and then cross their picket lines. He just doesn't give a rat's behind about them.

6. Nope, no surprise there.

Ron Paul is adamantly against that sort of thing. He's admanatly against pretty much anything that involves people getting together to make their lives better collectively - whether through unions, government,or whatever else.

These libertarians are all about "rugged individualism" and to hell with everyone else. That's why they are crazy and hypocritical - I don't see them hacking through the forest with a machete every day rather than using the "collectivist" public highways.

Say it ain't so.
