Ron Paul AWOL on the Environment
It’s beyond me why so many Democrats are falling for the idea that Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul is some kind of progressive knight in shining white armor. The truth is that Ron Paul is far from progressive.
Just take a look at how Ron Paul’s campaign for President is dealing with the environment… or rather, how the Ron Paul 2008 campaign is not dealing with the environment.
Ron Paul doesn’t even seem to understand that the environment is an important issue at all. The Pentagon has identified global warming as a threat to America’s national security at least as grave as terrorism, but Ron Paul hasn’t gotten the news.
On the issues page the Ron Paul campaign has put up on its web site, the following issues are discussed:
The environment isn’t discussed at all in Ron Paul’s campaign for President. Ron Paul doesn’t seem to think that there are any problems with the environment. In fact, if you look through Ron Paul’s campaign materials, he seems to be against environmental regulation.
Ron Paul is no progressive.
