Sure I disagree with him on virtually everything he votes on and the reasons why. But he's actually a decent guy. I wish all politicians i disagreed with were like him.

The politicians with your view seem to sell you up the creek every time. Paul is too hard lined about issues - like stopping the mint from creating a Rosa Parks coin. Even though it makes the mint money. He also doesn't game the system enough - lobbying isn't bad. It's a way for agendas to be brought to government. They just need to be made public and scheduled.
Assange is officially a super villain.
You misunderstand me. I will clarify. If we are not in a war, everything for the most part (obviously somethings should be confidential, perhaps 3% of government activity) should be out in the open. If we are in a war, we can keep a secret something until it happens (no one except the army and associated groups should have known about DDay until it had happened) maybe a week or so after DDay happened it should have been published somewhere public regardless of our war/peace position. The public has a right to know as soon as practical everything our government does. And stomping on this right or the 4th amendment in the name of safety is bullshit. IIRC a few weeks ago the government let drop that we gave syphilus to... Guatemalans I think, 50 years ago to perform medical tests. This should have been known at the very least right after it happened and preferably before it happened to express a public opinion. Preferably we ought to know what our government does before they do it. Of course a small set of information should stay hidden (black ops army type shit) but until some one tells me differently Wikileaks isn't telling such information. Therefore the with hunt on WL is a travesty.
Wasn't that place a level in Goldeneye 64? I bet Asange camps the body armor when he's in his office.
More good Wikileaks:
US Foreign Policy supporting dictators.
Anti-Royal family rhetoric targeted at Britain.
