An obstetrician who has delivered more than 4,000 babies, Paul sees a litany of enemies to personal freedom lurking everywhere:The Food and Drug Administration, “supranational organizations” like the U.N., the International Criminal Court and the World Trade Organization, “illegal immigrants,” “wasteful agencies, lobbyists, corporations on welfare and governments collecting foreign aid,” manufacturers of genetically modified foods and pesticides, “globalists,” opponents of home schooling, abortion providers, insurance companies, drug makers, federal bureaucrats and gun-control advocates, to name but a few.

Paul’s legislative proposals, which are short and to the point, would address the problems caused by these individuals and organizations by cutting back on the federal government’s power, adopting a “noninterventionist foreign policy” that includes ending the war in Iraq immediately, and a return to robust fiscal restraint.

But the congressman is clearly not interested in the compromises usually expected of members of Congress, which explains why his record of legislative achievement is so paltry compared with other lawmakers who have served in Congress for as long as he has.

For Paul, the principle is everything. Compromise is for those willing to sell out freedom. None of the bills or amendments that he has introduced during the first session of this 110th Congress has been voted on, either in committee or on the House floor.

Politico

We hear about principle over party being the cornerstone of what conservatives are trying to accomplish among the GOP. Why then, are so many conservatives shunning Ron Paul, when he clearly is the epitome incarnate of what conservatives have been looking for? He is the only one in the Presidential race consistently warning Americans of our waning freedoms right in front of our face at the hands of a strangling Federal Government.  While I have not decided on who I will be voting for in the January primary, I am leaning more towards Ron Paul with each passing week.
