The truth is non-partisan

• Ron Paul is in favor of allowing Americans to keep more of their own money by eliminating the IRS. Glenn Beck thinks we need to reduce government spending and cut taxes.
• Ron Paul is well-known among his colleagues for never having voted for higher taxes or unconstitutional spending. Glenn Beck is against higher taxes and excessive government spending.
• Ron Paul is a strong proponent of a secure border and against extending welfare to illegals. So is Glenn Beck.
• Ron Paul supports putting doctors and patients back in charge of health care decisions. He is a staunch defender of health freedom and against government-managed medicine. Glenn Beck says the same thing.
• Ron Paul adamantly defends our 2nd amendment rights and opposes federal gun regulation. And so does Glenn Beck.
• Ron Paul is strongly pro-life and in favor of repealing Roe v. Wade. Glenn Beck is also pro-life.
• Ron Paul does not support a military draft, and strongly opposes going to war with Iran. Glenn Beck thinks radical Islam is our worst enemy and they should be stopped from coming into the U.S. Going to war in Iran would extend our forces too far.
• Ron Paul is in favor of capturing Bin Laden and believes that it is critical for the United States to have a strong national defense. I think Glenn Beck would concur.
• Ron Paul is for protecting individual rights and opposed to unnecessary violations of our privacy like the "Patriot" Act. Yup, that's what Glenn Beck says too.
• Ron Paul supports removing troops from Iraq as soon as possible and allowing Iraqis to take responsibility for their own protection. How can you be opposed to this, Glenn Beck?
• Ron Paul believes that it is important to maintaining our national sovereignty by opposing trade organizations like NAFTA, the UN, and the WTO. Glenn Beck is among the few opinion leaders who think that there are plans for a North American Union.
• Ron Paul wants to stop corporate and banking interests from controlling the U.S. economy. He supports eliminating out-of-control inflation by getting rid of the Federal Reserve. Glenn Beck thinks that the Federal Reserve's policies are preventing the free market from correcting itself.

So Glenn Beck, it seems to me that you are 95% in agreement with Ron Paul. How come you constantly ignore him when listing the Republican candidates? Like every other media pundit you talk about Rudy Giuliani, but ignore the fact that Ron Paul has beaten him in every primary so far. Come on Beck, be fair. If you can't support him, at least don't say his ideas are crazy. They're all taken from your book.
