"Liberal PAC endorses progressive candidates because 'Electing Democrats is not enough'"
"Ron Paul Condemns Killing of al Qaeda’s Awlaki"
Evidently, Paul wasn’t swayed by the argument that traitors waging war against the US from foreign countries aren’t entitled to due process rights, especially when al Qaeda stubbornly resists our efforts to serve search warrants in certain neighborhoods on the Arabian Peninsula.
