Palin v.s Paul; Rift in the Tea Party

[Tonington]

Ron Paul has some conspiracy leanings apparently:

YouTube - Ron Paul and Alex Jones spread conspiracy that BP oil disaster was an inside job

He said he's suspicious, but was not specific there. I've listened to a few of his videos now, and I can say he is soft spoken and generally avoids confrontation with his host. He seems honest, but also seems to prefer focus in on points of agreement between him and his host rather than points of disagreement. If this is simply following the same pattern as other presentations of his, it may be that he's just choosing his words well, ignoring those point of disagreement, and focusing on points of agreement. In this case, it happens to be suspicion, but he does not go much farther than that in his explanation.

''Ron Paul has some conspiracy leanings''

That has always been true of him and of many other libertarians. When a leftist says things like that they are said to be wearing tin hats. Rightists with those views somehow escape that type of criticism. Don't know why.
