Ron Paul endorses Free State Project.
Twenty bucks says the guy who screams “YEEEEAH” after Jon Huntsman’s 2.1% is a Ron Paul supporter.
Ron Paul on Meet the Press today
This cracked me up (paraphrase):
Q: So there wouldn’t be a substantial difference between Obama and Romney?
Ron Paul: Well, you first have to decide which Romney you’re listening to, he’s changed stances so many times.
SO here in New Mexico I guess you can take your 8000 tax dollars and use it for a charter school. A kind of school choice program I guess. Lately on the news, they have been talking about how Albuquerque Public Schools are being threatened by how many people are going to charter schools. One doesn’t know whether to laugh or cry at the idiocy.
We’ll see what their version of Sharia law means:

@Wheylous: Believe it or not, I’ve actually read up on the subject and, no, I don’t think he’s telling the truth. There is another song that uses the exact same line “like a G6”. There was speculation it was a reference to one of the Gulfstream jets but they don’t make any airplane called a “G6” nor does any other manufacturer to my knowledge.
The timing was beyond fortuitous. In any case, we’re talking about the Pontiac G6 and that was (I believe) the purpose.

This trailer is actually a bit cooler than the film itself, but it’s still worth watching. You can find it on Netflix streaming
Speaking of Netflix:
Man that jerkoff tried hard to make Paul look bad.
Everything I’ve seen of him suggests that he’s some kind of New Deal window-breaker. He clearly thinks that the government ‘runs the economy’, and that a lack of spending is the cause of the economic woes. Thus he always opposes any suggestion of cutting spending/not raising taxes.
I used to think that he had a slight conservative bias last year (he seemed to give liberals a tougher time than conservatives). Yet it appears that he simply doesn’t like Ron Paul.

Ron paul going crazy on TV.
bitbutter’s critique of Molyneux’s faux original idea…
“…this part of the book seems to be a repackaging of Hoppe’s ‘argumentation ethics’…” …which of course that narcissistic, Randian-esque IP-loving, faux anti-IP, jerkwad would deny until the cows come home.
So Elizabeth Warren, (of “the rest of us paid for” fame) is now claiming that she created ‘much of the intellectual foundation’ for Occupy Wall Street.
Elizabeth Warren is running for office in the most high-profile race in the country not involving Barack Obama. It’s a position that calls for some tact. So what does she think about the Occupy Wall Street protests that are roiling the country?
“I created much of the intellectual foundation for what they do,” she says.
Lovely.
P.S.
Apparently Warren also created a little stink a short while back when debate moderators asked her to comment on [her Senate race opponent] Scott Brown’s decision to pose in Cosmopolitan magazine years ago to pay for college. What was her response? “I kept my clothes on” during college.
So Brown fired back, and his response is just awesome. I’ll let some feminist over at Time magazine tell you what he said…But it’s even better than her clever headline.
Newt Gingrich thinks Congress should abolish courts that issue rulings it does not like. Rick Perry suggests it should simply vote to override their decisions…
Sacking the Courts
I don’t want to hijack the thread, but in reference to the link you posted in the August Low Content Thread, Walter Block’s assumption that Molyneux doesn’t “hate the state” is kind of silly. I don’t entirely agree with Molyneux’s interpretation of Paul’s candidacy, but come on. The Reason editor wanted Paul to be more statist and Molyneux criticizes Paul for being too statist.
Apparently it was Ron Paul himself who organized the “Black This Out” moneybomb as a response to not getting equal time in the debate the night before.
“Claiming he did not speak for 40 minutes during the debate, Paul turned his gripe into a grab for funds by blasting supporters with a request to donate from October 19th to Monday at noon. […] Rep. Paul brought in $2.75 million for his third presidential campaign during the moneybomb, named for the “blackout” he complained of following the debate.”
You know, they make this out to be “a bitter old man tries to get his comeuppance”…anything to make him look bad…but to do that, they have to make it look like all Paul has to do is get a little perturbed and just all of a sudden raise $3 million on an hour’s notice (the debate ended at 11pm ET, the moneybomb officially started at 12am). There’s just a bit of satisfaction in that.
