The Conservatives The Right-Wing Bloggers Hate
Ron Paul is the most loathed. I'm as unpopular as Ann Coulter. Yay! A weird list. A schizo-litany. Almost a data point in the unraveling of the right. One day, we'll ravel again. Will Clinton bring us all together?

To reason, indeed, he was not in the habit of attending. His mode of arguing, if it is to be so called, was one not uncommon among dull and stubborn persons, who are accustomed to be surrounded by their inferiors.

The scary thing is that Dr. Ron Paul is the only real politically conservative politician that I know.

"I am further of opinion that it would be better for us to have [no laws] at all than to have them in so prodigious numbers as we have." Michel Eyquem, seigneur de Montaigne (1533–1592)
Interesting that Limbaugh isn't on that list. Hannity is, Coulter is, Savage is. But no Rush Limbaugh.
