Remember the Morton Downey Jr. Show? Back in the late 80's, Mr. Downey ripped and roared through debates on issues facing America, all the while smoking cigarettes and being belligerent with his guests and audience. I loved it, but it got old pretty fast. I preferred Downey to say, Arsenio Hall... he did cover important issues (if only in a crude way). Anyway, Slate unearthed this clip with Ron Paul, great stuff!
