I Don’t Know If I’ve Said It Before, But Ron Paul Supporters Are Nuts

Listen to this audio of a Ron Paul supporter calling into the Gunny Bob radio show. (hat tip Hot Air)
And then there is this video of a Ron Paul supporter and his sign:

I think these people would be better off playing dungeons and dragons in their basement and pretending to save the world there.
But are we sure there are actual Ron Paul supporters and this all isn’t some huge performance art? It’s easier to buy both of these pieces as parody rather than actual people. Do you think these people will disappear after the election, because at some point I’ll actually start missing them.

  1. I take issue with the “playing DnD in their basement’. Any Role player worth his dice wouldn’t allow these freakazoids to sit at their table and consume their Pizza and Jolt Cola. They wouldn’t pay for their share, and blame the lack of Pepsi on some plot by Big Cola.

  2. Eh . . .wha . . . WHAT?! What did I just watch?
    If the ripping down of a sign on a piece of cardboard from a telephone pole is the best ‘The Man’ can do, ‘The Man’ ought to be really, really, really easy to overthrow.
    The ripping down of an opponent’s sign is a relatively common practice, and I’ve heard of worse, like keying someone’s car. Geez.
    Does the skinhead wannabe want a cuddle and a place to hide from the harsh, harsh reality of the world? Maybe some milk and cookies will help.
    The guy on the radio . . . needs to be prescribed something . . . OH, MY.

  3. Well, consider the semi-retarded, drooling bluehairs that typically support McCain. Few if any of them have had an original thought since the mid 70’s that didn’t revolve around accusing the guy in the next room in the vermin-infested old folks’ home of stealing their denture cream.
    And your typical Giuliani supporter in Queens or Staten Island back in the day would have been lucky if they could string two coherent sentences together.
    And Huckabee supporters literally think that the Earth is 6000 years old and that cavemen rode around on dinosaurs like horses.
    Frankly, if you pulled all the libertarian leaners out of the Republican party, the people who were left would be a collection of hicks, trailer trash, suburban chumps, Babbitts, bible thumpers, and empty-headed authoritarian wannabees with an average IQ of about 90.

  4. I feel sorry for people like you. If you had a brain you would realise that your country is going down the tubes. I’m from Ireland and I can see it happening from all the way across the Atlantic. You laugh at the Ron Paul supporters and yet you are the type of idiot that will hand your country over to more big government and big business while they get rich and flush your economy and freedom down the toilet. Trust me when I say this there will come a time when you will look back on life and wonder what happened to your country and freedom. Hard times are coming for America and with the current policies your government is running and which ever other ass they get to replace Bush you might find yourself in WW3. Most the world is looking at America now and they all think Ron Paul is the only candidate that could possibly save your country from Tierney and Fascism. But then I read things like this and it is clear that there are still people like you living in America. The type of people I would call uneducated and ill informed about your own current government let alone world politics or even any important matter for that mind. You spend you’re time looking up Ron Paul supporter videos and audio clips just to call them all “crazies” or “nuts” when all I can see is passion for your constitution and a great need for real change rather than the fake promises of other worthless candidates. Is it any wonder the Ron Paul supports get so infuriated by people like you and the worthless main stream media who continually distort the facts for their own selfish benefit, blinding the people to the real truth of a country controlled by rich elite who own everything and keep the poor and middle class under their scrutiny and power. Well I will continue to watch as your country get screwed over by these people and I will tell my kids about the chance America had to change the world but how idiots just couldn’t see the big picture. One more thing, you should apply for a job in Faux News. Your literary skills seem up to the job.

  5. SiFromEire I wanted to write a long, concise response to your long rambling one, but then I realized anyone who uses the term “Faux News” is automatically disqualified from rational debate.
    Oh, and its “tyranny” not “Tierney”. Unless there is some kinda weird Irish spelling goen on.

  6. I’ve met a bunch of Ron Paul supporters.. none like the two you’ve singled out though. If the media gave Ron Paul equal time with say.. Guiliani then his supporters wouldn’t feel the need to do anything other than raise money. They could be like the supporters of all the other candidates. As it is they feel like they have to get off their couches and do something.. and unfortunately there’s a crazy one or three out there who gets up.

  7. This guy apparently has never heard of stopping the camera whilst doing things. Or maybe investing in a tripod.
    And Si, I’m afraid I don’t understand your whole “I’m an ultra-conservative Ron Paul supporter but I hate FOX News” thing. It really makes very little sense. Or should I say ‘sagacity?’ How’s that for “literacy skills?”

  9. Well, if they’re nuts, at least they aren’t establishment nuts. Are they walking around in Iraq claiming the war zone is safe, like McCain? Are they running around with their hair on fire worried about some shitpot country like Iran and crowing about Al Q’aeda everywhere? Are they like Kissinger and Brzezinski and quite a few other neocons who are drowning in the past glories of WWII? News flash, WWII ended over 50 years ago.
    Go find some nuts that matter.

  10. My favorite part was how he kept calling President Lincoln “trash.”
    I’m sorry… but no matter how many good points Ron Paul makes, it just can’t counteract things like that… and all the conspiracy theory nuttiness that surrounds him and his supporters.
    His slogan should be “Ron Paul: 65 percent right on many issues and 100 percent crazy on many others!”
    I like to call him Doctor Crazy-Pants.

  11. I don’t know if you’ve said it before either, but Lord knows I’ve said it enough for both of us.
    I’m ashamed to admit that man is from my state!
    And as for our friend from the Emerald Isle, please recall some of the best of our ancestor’s traditional wisdom:
    “Anthnionn ciarog ciarog eile.”

  12. Do you think these people will disappear after the election, because at some point I’ll actually start missing them.
    o rly? o rly mista j? or maybeh u just like havn gobs o traffic comn to u blawg n makin u soooooooo much googly bux $$$$$.

  13. As a law school student, I would like to respond to the caller’s comments on the constitution:
    Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha heeheehee, hoooo hooo hoooo…
    Oh man.
    That was great.
    I can already feel the Ron Paul reeducation brigades sweeping across the nation – down with those terrible officers! We must institute the proletariat understanding of THE CONSTITUTION! And torch the Lincoln memorial! DOWN WITH PENNIES!

  14. Wrrr: You might try getting some English lessons. I made a search for what language you might have posted in, but I the only thing that looked close was “Douchi.” I don’t have an Douchi-English dictionary, so I have no idea what you said.
    I like how tearing down cardboard signs is the work of the “New World Order.” Well, they should be done by lunch, then.
    Someone on THR was telling me how great RP is because he brings the anti-war liberals, the anti-tax conservatives and the conspiracy theorists all into one caucus! Can’t win an election without the all-important conspiracy nut vote, doncha know.
    I like having RP in Congress, and we need more of him as legislators. The President, however, is an executive. RP is no executive.
    I have no idea who to vote for that this point. The socialist, the other socialist, the fascist, the communist or the other other socialist?
    And speaking as someone who’s been quoted, well, misquoted, by the press multiple times, Fox is left wing. If you’ve taken enough drugs to imagine otherwise, you’re part of the problem. Either that, or just a tool.

  16. President Lincoln was a white supremacist who wanted to ship all the Negros back to Africa. He tried to win the Civil War without freeing one slave. Good thing he was losing so badly he was forced to emancipate the southern slaves. So much for the garbage they claim is history in schools.

  17. Good thing that sign’s hangin’ on that pole – that’s gonna help change the world. Someday we’ll all teach our children about the guy with the fetal alcohol syndrome teeth that hung that sign on that pole.
    And, SiFromEire: The point where you said you weren’t American was the point I realized I didn’t give a damn what you thought of who we elect as our president.

  18. Lots of people are angry about the economy, the weak dollar and the stupid Iraq War. Duh. Is Gunny Bob some kind of moron freak that he doesn’t realize this? He sure sounds like one.
    It’s a very unpopular war and this is a very unpopular president. That’s why the Democrats will win. There really isn’t much point even debating which Republican is going to win because it doesn’t even matter. They are just going to lose to whoever the Democratic nominee is.

  19. He tried to win the Civil War without freeing one slave.
    eh, the guy was an abolitionist long before the Civil War (cf. Lincoln-Douglas debates). To the extent he avoided the issue during the early stages of the Civil War, it was because he needed to in order to keep more border states from seceding. If people didn’t think he’d actually follow through on being an abolitionist, there would never have been a Civil War to begin with. As far as being a white supremacist, there was a very small minority of people who weren’t at least somewhat racist back then–it’s a pity this didn’t include him, but anybody who would want to argue he didn’t do more than most people to help blacks is out of their mind.

  20. okay, just listened the audio clip, that was f’n hilarious
    It’s a very unpopular war and this is a very unpopular president. That’s why the Democrats will win.
    While it would piss off a lot of our side to vote for him, our leading candidate (a guy who’s made a point of identifying himself with the Iraq War over the past couple years) is still beating all of the Democrats’ leading candidates in head-to-head polling.

    Liar
    General Election: McCain vs. Clinton LA Times/Bloomberg McCain 42, Clinton 46 Clinton +4

  22. So let me get this straight, SimonL. In the liberal bastion of LA, in a poll conducted by the extremely left wing LA Times, Clinton is only up by 4 (usually the margin of error is 3-4 points). I wouldn’t be very excited about that if I were you.

    I wouldn’t be excited about the prospect of an aging moron who literally talks about staying in Iraq another 100 years of having any chance of winning a national election if i were you. McCain also seems a bit senile after saying Putin was the leader of Germany. But please go right ahead and nominate him.
    All the real conservatives are gone and Duncan Hunter just announced his support for Huckabee – can you believe that nonsense? What’s next Fred Thompson will endorse Ron Paul? The GOP is hilarious this year. It’s terrific fun to watch.

    Ergo, if I toss in enough ad hominem attacks, it’ll defeat the fact the polls show him beating her.
    You greatly underestimate how much people, including Democrats, hate Hillary. I think they’d have a better shot with Obama, but as charismatic as the guy is, he really hasn’t done that well in the debate. Plus, as much as you might want to hang Iraq around our necks as an albatross, if you’re at all honest with yourself ya’d have to admit it’s been continuing to get better (to the point where most media commentaries on it now deal with discussing the fact it’s becoming a secondary issue).

  25. Yayness! We have t-shirt babes on the right-hand side now no matter whom we talk about. The “I survived Roe v. Wade” t-shirt girl is a cutie!
    If this on purpose, thank you! They’re easier on the eyes than the Rn Pul ads that pop up whenever people talk about him.
    Don’t ever go back! Because . . . wields broken beer bottle . . . just because. >_>;

  26. You greatly underestimate how much people, including Democrats, hate Hillary. I think they’d have a better shot with Obama, but as charismatic as the guy is, he really hasn’t done that well in the debate.
    Obama’s messiah buzz is wearing off but the far left is still behind him. If Democrats really hate Hillary then she won’t get the nomination. I think she will. The media isn’t saying it but I think Obama will win South Carolina and then get crushed by Hillary on Super Tuesday.
    Iraq is less of a disaster but still a disaster – especially in the eyes of the far left (who tend to support Obama or Edwards). Iraq certainly isn’t a place most Americans want our troops to stay for another 100 years as McCain has so boldly suggested. I could see keeping military bases there for quite a while, however. Hillary’s more conservative on Iraq than the far left which is good I think.
    Instead of McCain how about you guys nominate Romney. Yes, McCain polls better right now against Clinton but Romney seems more sane.
    I’d still vote Clinton and believe Clinton will crush the GOP nominee obviously but I’d prefer to lose to Romney than McCain.

  27. This guy apparently has never heard of stopping the camera whilst doing things. Or maybe investing in a tripod.
    I was going to make a comment about the lack of a tripod, but then realized that it is a lot funnier that the guy doesn’t have a friend to hold the camera for him.

  28. Iraq is less of a disaster but still a disaster
    What are you comparing that to, dimwit? Here’s a bit o’ history for ya:
    1. There were 39 combat related killings in Iraq
    during the month of January…..
    In the fair city of Detroit there were 35 murders in the month of January.
    That’s just one American City ,about as deadly as
    the entire war torn country of Iraq.
    2. When some claim President Bush shouldn’t have started this war,state the following;
    FDR…led us into World War II. Germany never attacked us: Japan did.
    From 1941-1945, 450,000 lives were lost, an average of 112,500 per year.
    Truman…finished that war and started one in Korea , North Korea never attacked us.
    From 1950-1953, 55,000 lives were lost, an average of 18,334 per year.
    John F. Kennedy….started the Vietnam conflict in 1962. Vietnam never attacked us.
    Johnson…turned Vietnam into a quagmire. From 1965-1975, 58,000 lives were lost,
    an average of 5,800 per year.
    Clinton…went to war in Bosnia without UN or French consent, Bosnia never attacked us.
    He was offered Osama bin Laden’s head on a platter three times by Sudan and did nothing.
    Osama has attacked us on multiple occasions.
    3. In the two years since terrorists attacked us
    President Bush has liberated two countries,
    Crushed the Taliban,
    Crippled al-Qaida,
    Put nuclear inspectors in Libya, Iran and North Korea, without firing a shot, and
    captured a terrorist who slaughtered 300,000 of his own people.
    The Democrats are complaining about how long the war is taking,
    but…It took less time to take Iraq than it took Janet Reno to take the Branch
    Davidian compound. That was a 51-day operation.
    We’ve been looking for evidence of chemical weapons in Iraq for less
    time than it took Hillary Clinton to find the Rose Law Firm billing records.
    It took less time for the 3rd Infantry Division and the Marines to destroy
    the Medina Republican Guard than it took Ted Kennedy to call the Police
    after his Oldsmobile sank at Chappaquiddick, killing a woman.
    Wait SimonLoser, there’s more…
    Some people still don’t understand why military personnel do what they
    do for a living. This exchange between Senators John Glenn and Senator
    Howard Metzenbaum is worth reading. Not only is it a pretty impressive,
    impromptu speech, but it’s a lso a good example of one man’s explanation
    of why men and women in the armed services do what they do for a living.
    I’d prefer to lose to Romney than McCain.
    Speaking of losers, what happened to your support for Ron Paul?

  29. The far left ain’t ever going to like us, so (at least as far as we’re concerned) who cares?
    Hillary’s perfectly capable of winning the nomination with Democrats hating her as long as it isn’t a majority. I’m not sure it’s even a far left vs. moderate left sort of issue, but just a case at this point of “either you like the Clintons or you don’t.” The problem with her spat with Obama is she’s generating a whole new round of bad blood and, while I think that might go away if either of them picked the other as the VP, they’re starting to seem like they genuinely hate each other now. If Hillary wins and Obama gets frozen out when she picks a VP, a lot of people aren’t going to forgive that.
    There would also be people in the media who would be pissed about that–whereas Obama would be somebody who would have to win as far as some of them are concerned, Hillary would go from being “possible first woman President” back to just being Hillary Clinton as far as everybody’s concerned and would really have tossed away a lot of the boost she could have gotten from identity politics. So, sure, there’d be a bunch of people on the left who would want her to win over whoever we pick, but it will be hard to get those people as enthused and up for going to the polls after that.
    I’ve gone back and forth on Romney. The guy looks presidential, sounds presidential, no serious dirt that I know of (I also think the Mormon thing’s a little overblown), but he hasn’t really seemed that charismatic lately and the polls from Real Clear Politics show him losing to the Dems by 12 points at minimum, which is a complete non-starter.

  30. Alano,
    There were 39 combat related killings in Iraq
    during the month of January…..
    In the fair city of Detroit there were 35 murders in the month of January.

    How many U.S. soldiers died in Detroit in January?
    Speaking of losers, what happened to your support for Ron Paul?
    Ron Paul is still raising tons of money – over $3 million just this month. He might win a state or two but that’s about it. He
    was damn right about the economy tanking and he is damn right to be concerned about the U.S. dollar. He was right about the economy when Bush was lying about it. Paul is also right about how expensive the Iraq War is.
    However, now it is time to vote for Hillary Clinton to be the first woman president. It’s time for change. That’s where many Ron Paul supporters are heading that I’ve talked to.

  31. The problem with her spat with Obama is she’s generating a whole new round of bad blood and, while I think that might go away if either of them picked the other as the VP, they’re starting to seem like they genuinely hate each other now. If Hillary wins and Obama gets frozen out when she picks a VP, a lot of people aren’t going to forgive that.
    Whatever hate that is genuine and it isn’t just the drive-by-media that Limbaugh likes to talk about I wouldn’t count on it meaning that Democrats won’t vote for Hillary. If you have to count on hate winning you an election you should count on losing.
    People will probably even elect someone they dislike before they will elect someone they think is insane and John McCain has been giving ample evidence lately that he is insane. Just run ads showing the clip where McCain thinks Putin is the president of Germany and he is done. Even President Bush knows better than to say that. Easy win for Hillary Clinton.

  32. If you have to count on hate winning you an election you should count on losing.
    Oh come on, with the visceral hatred you guys show to our entire party, that’s hardly a fair criticism. Aging moron? Senile?
    In the very next sentence:
    People will probably even elect someone they dislike before they will elect someone they think is insane
    John McCain’s sanity is a topic I’m sure you could normally have a very long and enlightening discussion on on this blog, but whatever your opinions on it, it’s hardly a widely shared one among the electorate or the media.
    As far the specific clip, I don’t know the context of it, but every single Presidential has and will have slip-ups when they’re followed around by a camera for months 24/7 and I have no way of knowing the details–he could have been talking about Putin speaking when he was in Germany, but even if he wasn’t that’s hardly much more than an off-hand misstatement.

  33. I was going to make a comment about the lack of a tripod, but then realized that it is a lot funnier that the guy doesn’t have a friend to hold the camera for him.
    He had a friend, but his mother removed the pork chop from around his neck. As a result, the dog refuses to play with him anymore.
    I have a gut feeling that he has a sign nailed to the back of his AMC Gremlin.
    If this guy could do all that with a hammer and a nail, imagine what he could do with a staple gun!!!

  34. But you have to believe him! The NWO has minions. Do you have any idea how powerful that makes them?
    Minions.
    Who knows if the Ru Paul supporters resist the next level might be Henchmen.
    If they send henchmen Ru Paul is toast.
    Oh. RON Paul. Is he Ru’s brother? I was wondering why the hair looked different.

  35. Thanks, Robert.
    And Simon-
    How many U.S. soldiers died in Detroit in January?
    That, I don’t know. Why? Did you have an actual point with that statement, or are you trying that whole “moral equivalence” thing? If you are, then you lose an argument once again on the grounds that, when you try to use that last-ditch tactic, you sound about as credible as the pro-death simpletons who try to justify abortion against pro-lifers who eat meat; it just doesn’t add up.
    And as for Ronnie Paul “raising tons of money” while being “right about how expensive the Iraq War is”, well…
    …if you wanted a better example of throwing good money after bad, you certainly trumped us there, whiz-kid.

  36. Oops… forgot to respond to this stupidity:
    However, now it is time to vote for Hillary Clinton to be the first woman president. It’s time for change. That’s where many Ron Paul supporters are heading that I’ve talked to..
    Huh? I thought “Dr.” Paul was a shoo-in! Unless you just weren’t serious about him…
    Like we didn’t know.

  37. That, I don’t know. Why? Did you have an actual point with that statement, or are you trying that whole “moral equivalence” thing?

    Sorry, I thought you were comparing murder deaths in Detroit to troops dying in Iraq earlier. What does abortion have to do with eating meat? You sound like a freaking moron.
    Huh? I thought “Dr.” Paul was a shoo-in! Unless you just weren’t serious about him…
    Like we didn’t know.

    The point of supporting Ron Paul was to allow the voice of dissent on the Iraq War to be heard loudly in the debates. Ron Paul spoke at several debates and continually made excellent points about how the costs of the Iraq War are hurting our country.
    Fred Thompson also needed to be knocked out of the race. Turns out Paul wasn’t even needed to challenge Fred Thompson because Huckabee took care of Fred Thompson all by himself. No one really foresaw that happening but it was a marvelous development. You can thank Karl Rove for establishing the evangelical church network that made Huckabee’s rapid rise so much easier.
    Now you are left with no real conservative in the race. That’s all that really matters.
    If McCain is your nominee that will be just great. Defeating him will be child’s play for the democratic nominee. There is the enormous McCain gaff where he refers to Putin as the leader of Germany. There is also a video of McCain singing a “Bomb, bomb, bomb Iran” song that will be helpful. There are many others. Should be a fun election!!
    Besides, even if McCain wins he’s half a liberal already!

  38. Now you are left with no real conservative in the race. That’s all that really matters.

    Well, at least this douchebag is honest about being an America-hating, liberal scumbag. And he has a working understanding of the English language as well, which is more than can be said for the Ron Paul nutters.
    That being said, I still wish a painful death on him and anyone else who votes Democrat. (And if you could all manage to die before the election, that would great.)

  39. SimonL
    How many U.S. soldiers died in Detroit in January?
    Okay, this is the most ignorant thing I have ever heard. Are you saying that it’s okay that normal people get murdered every day, but it’s not okay that soldiers, who sign up to be soldiers mind you, are getting hurt or killed in WAR. Are you kidding? I hope you are. Soldiers are trained to fight. It’s their job. I date a cop. He knows full well the risk of his job. If he gets shot, I’m not planning to blame the government. It’s people like them who fight to give people like you the freedom to say stupid and ignorant things. I wish stupidity hurt.

  40. “Okay, this is the most ignorant thing I have ever heard.

    I think the point he was trying to make was that he’s comparing civilian murders and combat KIA’s, which are two totally different numbers. Out of all the different kinds of casualties in the Iraq war, US military deaths are the lowest. Civilian deaths are much higher than our military deaths.

  41. BWAAHAHAHA!
    I think I pulled a muscle laughing at that audio.
    And after watching that video, I am truly concerned about the suicide rate among Ronulans when Herr Paul doesn’t get the nod.
    And Fluffy, this non-libertarian trailer trash has an IQ of 129. Sorry to disappoint.

  42. SimonL
    I’m not so sure I would want someone who supports my candidate saying something bad about Abraham Lincoln. If the Paullies are migrating to Clinton, that’s the worst thing that can possibly happen to the Dems.
    And keep banging that “McCain mis-labeled Putin’s country” drum. I’m sure that’ll be the thing that finally sinks him. As we look at the latest polls…. nope – doesn’t seem to be doing anything negative. Which is a shame, really. So keep running that up the flag pole – eventually somebody has to salute.

  43. The buzz cut loafer wearing idiots in the 60’s used to criticize the hippies too about the vietnam war.
    Turns out the hippies were right after all.
    This latest generation is nothing more than a new batch of buzz cut loafer wearing idiots who have nothing better to do than live their lives ignorant of politics, so they criticize anybody who actually wants to change america for the better.
    There’s a nation where there is no dissent, there’s no crime, no terrorism, and police make everybody safe. Its called North Korea.
    Maybe the buzz cut neocons could sign up for citizenship there.

  44. #69 Rick
    I don’t know. I think that the freaking hippies were absolutely WRONG about Vietnam. We pulled out and the South Vietnamese got overrun. Ask those who gave their lives trying to come to America afterwards what they think of hippies who were against the war in Vietnam…
    Douche…

  45. What does abortion have to do with eating meat?
    Nothing; that was the point; I’m going to go ahead & assume that the “L” at the end of your name stands for “Lethargic”, because you don’t appear to be real quick on the uptake.
    You sound like a freaking moron.
    Oh, touche! You wound me with your sharp wit, sir… LOL!
    If you could read what I was alluding to, then you would not have gotten so confused, little fella. But I’ll dumb it down for you so you don’t get another migraine: Have you ever heard of two situations being “apples & oranges”, i.e., they don’t add up because they are very different? That’s what I was alluding to. Go ahead & hit that link; maybe it’ll help.
    Conversely, why does it matter if any if the people killed in Detroit were soldiers or not? Would that make it better or worse? The answer is moot; at least in Iraq, the soldiers are fighting for something real.
    Now you’ve shown us how unfamiliar you & your ilk are with the concept of being real. You said that,
    “The point of supporting Ron Paul was to allow the voice of dissent on the Iraq War to be heard loudly in the debates”, not long after you stated that, “Hillary’s more conservative on Iraq than the far left which is good I think” and “I’d still vote Clinton and believe Clinton will crush the GOP nominee obviously but I’d prefer to lose to Romney than McCain”.
    After all that nonsense, you said that “Turns out Paul wasn’t even needed to challenge Fred Thompson because Huckabee took care of Fred Thompson all by himself. No one really foresaw that happening but it was a marvelous development”…
    So you were scared of Fred after all!
    Now, all that having been said, are you finally admitting that the real point of all the hype about Ronnie Paul was just a ruse & that the idea behind it was an attempt to divide to the GOP’s voting base while intending to vote for the left all along? That’s how it sounds, but not just from you; there are other polls of RP supporters who stated blatantly that if RP wasn’t in the final running, then they- just about each one of them- would vote for either Clinton, Obama, or Edwards!
    Now, given the fact that you’re still touting RP’s donation amounts while we all know that you wouldn’t be voting for him even if he got the Republican nomination, you are indeed perpetuating a fraud & you aren’t fooling anyone; I think that, when this is over, you all owe Ron Paul a huge apology for using him like this.
    But just for giggles, be honest for once in your surreptitious little existence: If it came down to Ron Paul & Hillary Clinton, who would you vote for? Let’s see if you’re capable of telling us the truth, Simon.

  46. I stopped caring what the Irish think when I stopped going to their bars, which have sucked (at least in NYC) for over 10 years now (nothing but soccer on TV, and rap or techno on the jukes).
    Ron Paul will not live long enough to lose another election. As for Hillary Clinton, Adam Carolla of “The Man Show” said it years ago: Hillary Clinton will never be president because women HATE other women…

  47. Where were all these Ronulans when Harry Browne ran as the Libertarian candidate? He was much more sane, except on the war. That’s why I haven’t voted for a LP candidate for president for years even thogh I am registered as a Libertarian.

  48. you should have titled it “SOME Ron Paul supporters are nuts. Whether you admit it or not, there are wired out druggies supporting all the candidates. Why don’t you show them? Yeah, some of us are nuts.

  49. “The New World Order’s evil minons”? Who actually talks like that?
    And ‘resilience’ is now a poorly handwritten sign? Ron Paul: the ghetto candidate
    I take issue with the “playing DnD in their basement’. Any Role player worth his dice wouldn’t allow these freakazoids to sit at their table and consume their Pizza and Jolt Cola. They wouldn’t pay for their share, and blame the lack of Pepsi on some plot by Big Cola.
    Hear hear. Dude, most RPers know the difference between an RPG and reality. Ronulans…not so much.

  50. I have got to love the fact that so many people are concerned about Ron Paul. If you think he is a lunatic thats your right, but if you want a politician who will actually try to accomplish something positive (ie. make our money have actual value!) then give Ron a chance. He at least is anti-gun control and wants to shrink our taxes!
