WaPo is beside itself trying to figure out why, when Ron Paul is the most likely person to put them out of their jobs.
I don’t work for the WaPo, but I figured out this “paradox” years ago, back in my brief few militia days, when I saw so many government employees involved. (An observation that I am not the only one to have made.) The reason so many Federal employees gravitate toward the ideology pejoratively called the “anti-government” right is because they’re in the belly of the “beast,” so to speak, and they see the shit that government is doing to people. I’ll never say this person’s name, but I know someone personally, well enough to have his number stored in my phone’s memory, who is against affirmative action, organizes his political advocacy around being against it, joins groups and organizations opposed to it, but he makes his living as an affirmative action enforcement agent for some level of government. Not saying any more than that.
That would make two belly of the beast arguments. Well, it’s a big belly.
