I saw Ron Paul on the Tonight Show on Friday night and wanted to point out two things. First, when Leno the liberal asked Dr. Paul the libertarian about whether drugs should be legal, judging from his expression and his speech, it was almost as if he were asking him whether killing someone should be legal. And second, when Leno brought up the fact that Dr. Paul wanted to eliminate the income tax, Ron said something truly profound: “Fifty percent of the people in this country pay no income tax; we are halfway there.” (my paraphrase).
