- This post on Ron Paul from Col. Lang, featuring the lovely line “citadels of exalted brooding”. I saw the interview he mentions as well and got the same impression; namely that Russert was trying to rapid fire the questions enough to get him to trip up and say something that could be easily misinterpreted. It’s not like Paul is hiding what he believes, or that it’s not controversial in his version. Lame. A bit reminiscent of Ace in the Hole.
