NEW YORK A feature piece in this coming Sunday's New York Times Magazine on Republican candidate for president, Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, portrays his followers as including a wild mix of "wackos" on both ends of the political spectrum. Paul, a libertarian, has been gaining media and public attention of late.
The cover line reads: "A Genuine Radical for President." The headline inside: "The Antiwar, Anti-Abortion, Anti-Drug-Enforcement-Administration, Anti-medicare Candidacy of Dr. Ron Paul."
Why would Salzberger and his henchmen and surrender monkeys at the New York Slimes go out of their way to devote a good portion of their Sunday magazine to a GOP candidate who A. Agrees with their Iraq War position and B. Has at the very least an uphill battle to get the GOP nomination?
That is a very good question.
