My college senior son (aerospace, physics, math major, looking forward to helping our Country build weapons of mass destruction) told me last weekend he’s a Ron Paul supporter. My son says he believes in the Constitution and that only Ron Paul stands up for it.

I tried to tell him that the world has changed and that the Constitution was good back in the past but it’s out of date and that we don’t need to use it anymore.

My son doesn’t believe me. He’s smart but so naive about how the real world works.

Why do I smell ozone? Your comment is complete BS, the Constitution isn't 'outdated', the problem is Paul's knowledge of the Constitution is found in the Idiots Guide to the Constitution.. he picks and chooses what he wants to support his theories and ignores what he doesn't like. He is like a snake handler quoting the Bible telling him to hold snakes. Ron Paul is to the Constitution as Fred Phelps is to Christianity.

Not only did this conversation not take place, but anybody dumb enough to actually believe such a (thoroughly moronic) conversation ever took place should have their voting rights permanently revoked.

Is this really what trolling has come to? I think we should observe a moment of silence for the lost art of subtle manipulation...

You'd better pray he doesn't find out firsthand.
