announces:
The Ron Paul 2012 Presidential Campaign announced today that constitutional and international law expert Bruce Fein will join the campaign as senior advisor on legal matters.
And just what kind of "constitutional and international law" expert is Fein? That would be the same Bruce Fein who:
...drafted an article of impeachment against President Obama over his attack on Libya, throwing down a legal gauntlet that could be picked up by some Congressional Republicans.
Fein also supported impeaching George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and Bill Clinton, but the thing he's known for now is trying to impeach President Obama, and it's hard to see his selection by Paul as anything more than a pretty loud dog whistle to far right activists. Paul prides himself on being a man of principle, but as you may recall, he enjoys boasting that Ronald Reagan actually endorsed his early campaigns for Congress. And yes, that would be the same Ronald Reagan who invaded Grenada without Congressional approval. Yet despite the fact that Reagan actually sent ground troops in, and Americans died, somehow you don't hear Ron Paul or his minions arguing for Reagan's impeachment, yet they do for President Obama. I wonder why.
