We long time Ron Paul supporters got used to the typical underhanded attacks “our” candidate received during his Presidential bid. They became predictable and passé. Now that Rand Paul has proven he is a viable candidate in the 2010 Senatorial race in Kentucky similar attacks have begun. With Ron Paul many of the attacks were leveled by the media itself. We even published a rather popular satire piece during the campaign called “The Official Media Guide To Attacking Ron Paul“. Thus far with Rand Paul, most of the attacks are coming from the Left and the neo-conservative establishment friends of his Republican primary opponent Trey Grayson. The attacks themselves are quite typical. The Left enjoys pointing out that white supremacist organizations have noticed Rand Paul’s campaign and support him. They like to point out that such extreme groups and individuals supporting Paul means that Paul himself somehow condones such beliefs. This is ludicrous. Guilt by association attacks are for the feeble-minded. No one, not even the Left’s Messiah Obama can control who chooses to support him. Extremists like Jeremiah Wright and Louis Farrakhan both support Obama, but I don’t attack Obama because of it. Even though a much stronger case could be made for doing so due to the fact that Wright was Obama’s pastor and mentor for 20 years or so. Believing in individual liberty and white supremacy are impossible bedfellows. Attacking Rand Paul this way tells us more about the attacker than the attacked. The attacks from his own party are right out of the political attack playbook. What makes it humorous this time is that the charges against Rand Paul suggesting he isn’t a “real Republican” could be more easily made against his opponent. Trey Grayson used to be a Democrat and campaigned for Bill Clinton in the 90’s. At that time Rand Paul was busy founding an anti-tax group in Kentucky. Grayson is to the left of George W. Bush and John McCain, two names that don’t exactly warm conservative Republicans hearts. Rand Paul is more like a Goldwater/Reagan Republican. He actually talks about term limits, cutting spending, and having a balanced budget. He doesn’t just deliver sound bites about lower taxes. Here is his excellent speech at a recent fund raiser in Nicholasville, Kentucky. I’ll let you be the judge on which candidate is the “real” Republican. As Rand Paul raises more and more money he will be attacked more and more. In today’s political climate being an establishment politician is more of a negative than in days past. To further illustrate the status quo vs. the anti-establishment fight another money bomb for Rand Paul has been scheduled. The money bomb will be held on the same day that Trey Grayson is having a $500 per plate fund raiser provided by his establishment GOP friends in DC. On September 23rd, it is the KentuckyFight.com money bomb, also known as the “We The People” vs. the “DC Insiders” money bomb. The goal is to raise $500k for the day for Rand Paul’s campaign. The last money bomb yielded over $433k so the goal is achievable, but I would be surprised if the $500k is reached. I can’t blame anyone for aiming high though. Pledge today and help spread the word. The more money the campaign raises the more vicious the attacks will become. Fighting the power makes the powerful uneasy and desperate. Rand Paul is fighting and has the best chance of any liberty candidate to actually win a U.S. Senate seat. In the name of freedom, let us help him be victorious.

Hint.... Shed the republican party like the dirty suit it is. Run as an independent, run as an American. Elected as a republican, just another professional politician, like father, like son.
yeah, but like his dad, he says all the right things including the need for term limits for congress.
Ron Paul took a dive,and he also had the right message. Anti war is one thing, but willing to fight is quite another. Knee pads on pledging undying love for any party negates any message.
Those "white supremacists" then must just be crazy, and why they support Paul will forever remain a complete mystery.
Anti-racism is code for white genocide
I used to agree with that.
Anti-racism is code for white genocide
Get rid of the Fed Income Tax and the need for term limits will take care of itself.
what changed your mind?
yep. fat chance of that happening though.
I can see it now.... all those lobbyists out on the street fighting with the homeless for begging space. The multitudes of tax service industries instantly not needed. For starters. lol
It's the vast hordes of the executive branch and the priest-kings of the judicial branch that need term-limiting.
Anti-racism is code for white genocide
Taking a dive implies that it was pre-planned. I still think Ron Paul was given some heavy, and credible, threats against his family about the time of the South Carolina "Debates". One could see the visible change in his demeanor following that time. There are a lot of men who would sacrifice their own lives for liberty but very few who will sacrifice the lives of their families. I think he took the route of "discretion is the better part of valor" and lived to fight another day. Despite that the numbers of people awoken to the realities of our very very corrupt, and dominated by the Banksters and Psychiatrists, political environment, the numbers have never returned to the low levels before his campaign. It is still seething below the surface and more people are aware and as a result more are becoming aware. So, he did advance the ball.
"An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you know and what you don't. ~ Anatole France
Same thing happened to that crazy little Texan what's his name. Perot? He came out and said his family had been threatened but he was written off as being crazy.
You are beginning to scare me and probably others as well. I don't believe in our two wings of our one party but you carry your hatred too far and pick and choose who you support when they run as a republican. As we all know, Sarah Palin ran as a pubbie for VP in the last election. Her message was one that she was an israhelli firster. Apparently you don't care because she is a woman, a woman who you apparently are enamoured with. You continue to blow her horn and put down those of us who realize she would be a willing puppet for those in control. What is it yoou say about us, "we are women haters" because we aren't head over heels in love with Sarah? Why aren't you grilling her sorry ass for running in the pubbie party like you are Ron Paul and now Rand Paul? I really like you and see many things you write that shows you understand most of the issues. Why does the bitch Sarah get a pass from you and you attempt to crucify Ron Paul and now Rand Paul for running as Republicans? Try running as a Third Party candidate yourself and tell us how easy it is to get elected. Then maybe we will believe you. Your hypocracy is showing!!!!!
Yep, but you don't become a self-made billionaire by being crazy. The shadow rulers have to have one of their own installed.
Exactly.
Kinky Friedman, "Even God Himself couldn't win as an Independent."
I'm glad you didn't waste your time addressing this to Cynicom. He wouldn't believe it. Apparently he believes running as a Third Party candidate is a piece of cake. Very sad and disturbing to say the least!
you're absolutely right
Legislative term-limiters I think implicitly assume that with term limits there would be more Ron Paul's (or Feingold's, another guy I like.) That is not at all obvious to me. I think legislators would be even more dependent on the Humphrey Appleby's.
Anti-racism is code for white genocide
Cynicom blew it with me. The coward doesn't have the decency and guts to post an answer to my number 13. This is exactly what we are up against when it comes to our politicians. Cyni, you missed your call, you should have been a Third Party politician. Maybe you and the SWIMMER could have been best friends and cohorts. You seem to have all the answers to questions that aren't directed to you. If it means anything at all, you arent alone. Many on here blame Ron Paul for our presnt lousy affairs of state and our political problems. Dam that sonof a bitch Ron Paul! If only we had elected mclame and the hottie Sarah who were running on the republican ticket! You Cyni, are "pisshole strung"!
Well, I see Lac is back from his vacation. Hope you had a good time.
.............and I see you are still ridiculing Ron Paul and tooting the horn of Sarah the twit. From here you look just like a politician who skirts the real issues. Your cute little answer is something a pol on the take would utter. Of course I'm back. Are you? Why does Sarah the republican get kudos from you and the others are lousy no good MF's? You are giving obanger competition!
Cute??? I was taught politeness. Cute was never mentioned.
You were near the top of my list. Not any more. I've asked you twice already and will one more time to go outta my way to be polite to you. I'm sure that is more than you probably would give me. So here goes! Why is it ok for Sarah to run as a pubbie with your blessings and everyone eles is a no good bastard for running as a pubbie? I have never ever used the bozo filter against any poster including old friend, A.K.A Stone, or longnosegar. I am considering using it against you. You should feel so proud to be included in such company. You certainly can't be that retarded to continue lifting up Sarah who ran as a pubbie and keep ridiculing others for doing the same. Do you know how you look: do you even care? Answer my question. Why does Sarah get a pass from you?
Well, if you had read my dissertation concerning Paul the Younger, you would not have to ask that question and I would not have to answer it. Just because you are a friend, I am going to do it one more time. Not to disillusion you but I must. Dont let it get around but I dont support Sarah or any person that professes to belong to any political party. Re read my Rand Rant, if he runs...INDEPENDENT...I would support. Its there, you just have to let it sink in. As for Sarah, I have a gurl thing, thinking of moving to Alaska. Hint, It has nothing to do with politics. Been that way all my life, gurls are interesting.
i think Cyni is thinking that Sarah Palin might be a contender to lead the effort for a third party.
Just because she is a girl, her party affiliation doesn't matter. Why you sound like the dumb bitches who voted for dumbass dumbya because he was a hunk. They help saddle us with possibly the worst president in our country's history. It is too early to tell if that distinction will belong to obanger but he is headed that way. So your penis sways your thinking! WOW! I like girls too, so much so that I've been married to the same one for 42 years. Having said that, when a twit comes along and participates in our political process, I won't let a 'woodie' cloud my thinking. Right now on a scale of 10, you've lowered your stock to a two. You can say whatever you want about the Paul's. I doubt if there is another politician who loves his country more and who is willing to serve using our Constitution as the center of their decisions (votes) Now run along and find a girly sight on the net that titilates you. Your attempt to answer my question was a poor excuse for an end around.
Don't lower yourself to his level. Don't make excuse for him. He never mentioned a Third Party run by his darling Sarah. I can tell you this. Third Party "runs" are a waste of time, effort, and money. I will never ever get involved in another campaign again period. Infact, I will never ever vote again. We tend to blame others, or the pols when it is really our own fault. Everybody got a lame excuse, sometimes even me!
I'm already sick over the fact that the GOP is gleefully devouring one of its' own. The GOP deserves to lose every race until they cease to exist as a political party.
_________________________________________________________________________ I dont think you like gurls at all. That is just a cover. Someone has got to be able to some how convince you there is a vast difference between...POLITICIANS...and....gurls. I thought it was quite plain that Sarah was a fancy type looking gurl. Politician???? Not interested. If you look at Sarah and see a politician, son you need glasses, bad. I am thinking of moving to Alaska.
he has to me a number of times.
the great alaskan white NEOCON hope leading a third party effort ?? OY VEY !
Someone has got to be able to some how convince you there is a vast difference between...POLITICIANS...and....gurls. I thought it was quite plain that Sarah was a fancy type looking gurl. Politician???? Not interested. How in the hell do you know what i think about girls. You are beginning to sound like a sick sex offender. Maybe Sarah is a raving beauty in yor eyes, but she is nothing more than a political wannabe who cut and ran, not even finishing her term as governor. Whatever physical beauty she might have had, she came up empty and a loser as a politician. So now you have told us all on here that you are a dirty old man lusting after another man's wife. A sick sexual bastard! You're down to one now.
Aw come on now, if you gonna preach morals, I am done for. Next you will be preaching the Gospel of hellfire and brimstone. And I dont think you would make a good preacher.
O.K. But she still is a pubbie and he adores her and holds all others in disdain and that is absolutely sick. I personally think both parties are only tools that those in control use to continue their control over us and we let them do it time after time.
Christine... Would you explain the difference between a gurl and a politician to Lac??? I have no luck.
I'll start off with a compliment. Not many people will admit faults, so thumbs up on that one. Next. What is wrong with Sarah Palin? She is right on most issues.
Error of opinion may be tolerated where reason is left free to combat it - Thomas Jefferson
Good... evidently you are a poster who can articulate her stances, include links please. I would like links to her statements on illegal immigration, TARP bailouts, healthcare and and the Obamaplan if possible, foreign policy including the Israeli/Palestinian problems and possible involvement with Iran, the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars..... for starters.
Come on..... you aren't doing your bit by drooling over the official Miss GOP contenders. If you don't find the right trappings for a good fantasy romp with Palin there's always that airhead Prejean for your viewing pleasure.
Pro-amnesty Pro-Tarp (but didn't understand it, thought it would less us afford healthcare for some crazy fucking reason) healthcare and and the Obamaplan if possible-Against completely. Pro-Israel- But not much more than that, she doesn't comprehend complicated issues. Paraphrase of her "Never second guess Israel." Pro-surge in Iraq Pro war in Afghanistan. Pro surge in Afhanie too. Iran- Don't let them have nukes. Never threatened them directly, but wouldn't second guess Israel if they attack.
Sounds like what that Stone thinks is "right on the issues" means being pretty much a Neocon. lolol Do you disagree with this... Stone?
Thus far with Rand Paul, most of the attacks are coming from the Left and the neo-conservative establishment friends of his Republican primary opponent Trey Grayson.
