Demo Dirty Tricks: Robo-Call Claims Rand Paul Supports Legalizing Meth Labs

I received a robo-call this afternoon from the Kentucky Leadership Council claiming Rand Paul wants to legalize meth labs. The caller repeated this claim several times. The Kentucky Leadership Council is a shadowy Democrat supporting group that hides their donors. According to the Daily Caller, they have launched another robo-call campaign claiming Rand Paul isn't a Christian. Both claims are false. The group directed me to a one page website containing a YouTube video. The website doesn't directly repeat the same false claim about meth labs, but the video does claim Paul supports legalizing drugs. Rand Paul is quoted out of context in the video saying,

"things that are non-violent shouldn't be against the law"

Rand Paul made the comment in response to a question about helmet laws and whether adults should have the right to either gamble or buy lottery tickets. Conway has previously used Paul's out of context statement in a political ad that Politifact judged false.

The Kentucky Leadership Council has spent $132,000 trying to defeat Rand Paul and throw the election to Democrat Jack Conway. Here is the false video ad, posted on YouTube, the robo-call is directing people too. The ad is also embedded on my blog.

Jack Conway is going down. This just shows how desperate Democrats have become.

Conway has run one of the nastiest campaigns of all time.

It is going to be so sweet to see Rand celebrating Tuesday night.

Hey, RATs, here’s a news flash for you!

I hang up the telephone the instant I know it’s a political call; I walk all the garbage mail from the mail box to the trash can. All the campaign BS is pure BS.

I turn the TV and radio volume off the minute a campaign ad comes on. Everyone I’ve talked to does the same thing.

The majority of people are disgusted by all of it. Those that care get their information on the Internet and Fox News. I don’t bother with the local rag newspaper either.

Please, those of you who Twitter or are on Facebook, spread this around!

Does anyone really read their slop?

[TigersEye]

I hear that Jack Conway is a practicing coprophagic.

Supporting the legalization of meth labs might pull from the democrats because I believe most democrats are on meth or something like it.

Does anyone actually listen to robocalls?

[ExTexasRedhead]

In my opinion, it’s all a huge waste of money. I know of absolutely no one reading or listening to their lies.

Unfortunately there are a lot of idiots who base their votes on ads and tricks like this. I think most of us are smarter than that, but these ignorant people are usually the ones who need to be won over to get elected. Anyone basing their vote solely on the campaign ads of any candidate is being very ignorant. All a campaign ad should do is get you interested in learning more about an issue and each candidates stance.

But fortunately I don't think Rand Paul has anything to worry about. He's got this thing won, and that's why we are seeing these ridiculous attacks now.

If they’re going to make something up, at least make it plausible. Some of these accusations made about candidates defies logic.

[ThermoNuclearWarrior]

They are past that point now. They have to use something as stupid, and implausible as this because nothing else will work(and neither will this). They have nothing to lose at this point and will take any type of chance they can.
