Pro-Ron Paul SuperPAC is funded by global hedge fund manager [also GOProud supporter]
Gloria Romanorum ^ | February 27, 2012 | Florentius

Ron Paul, who claims to be a fierce opponent of globalism and big money interests, as well as a strong proponent of traditional morality, is receiving millions of dollars in political support from global hedge fund manager, Peter Theil. An article that appeared in the San Francisco Chronicle yesterday detailed the $2.6 million in donations made by Thiel, co-founder of Pay Pal, to a Pro-Paul super-PAC, Endorse Liberty, that has produced videos attacking Rick Santorum. Newt Gingrich, and Rick Perry. You will note that Mitt Romney is not among those the SuperPAC has attacked.

Thiel also counts himself a libertarian, and a "gay Christian" who has hosted fundraisers for the Republican homosexual agenda-pushing group, GOProud.

The Paul campaign people acknowledge and are happy that Thiel is helping to fund the campaign, though it has clear that this has caused some consternation and internal debate within the campaign already.

Thiel is listed on Wikipedia as president of Clarium Capital, a San Francisco-based investment management and hedge fund company, and managing partner of The Founders Fund.

Most amusingly, Thiel is also a member steering committee of the Bilderberg Group--one of the shadowy, international organizations that Ron Paul frequently fulminates against. In fact, Paul once trashed Rick Perry for meeting with the Bilderberg Group and even called for a criminal investigation of Perry for doing so.

So here we have a "gay Christian" libertarian global hedge fund manager and Bilderberg Group member giving $2.6 million to a Pro-Paul SuperPAC.

I'd be curious to hear how Paul supporters will spin this one.

This character had the nerve to call Rick Santorum a "fake conservative"?

I am getting really sick of Ron Paul.

Here’s the REAL fake conservative - Ron Paull!

Rick Santorum recieved a 100% rating from the National Right-to-Life Committee, while Ron Paul only received only 56%, indicating a mixed record.

“Voted NO on restricting interstate transport of minors to get abortions. (Apr 2005)

Voted NO on making it a crime to harm a fetus during another crime. (Feb 2004)

Rated 56% by the NRLC, indicating a mixed record on abortion. (Dec 2006)”

Why is Ron Paul against a parent deciding what’s right for their minor child?

Where are all the Paulites claiming how pure a Conservative this Truther is because of this? Paul is an old Fraud and hates Conservatives as much as Romney does. That is why they are best buds.

Paul calls himself a conservative, but he has always been an extreme libertarian, as popular with the left as the right. Druggies love him. Peaceniks love him. And although he talks the talk on the Federal Reserve and small government, he is a major pork grubber.

Not really surprising to find him working covertly with Mitt Romney, evidently in hopes of getting Rand Paul tapped as the VP. Because as far as I can see, Paul has no principles AT ALL, and he’s perfectly happy to throw his libertarian, small-government credentials in the garbage, too, as long as it gets him what he wants—power for his son.

I wish we could just toss out the whole rule book when it comes to election financing and write one simple law. And that law would require 100% clear and simple disclosure of all financing. Instead of these idiotic creations and gaming with PACs and Super PACs. It is so damn cynical. The idea of Super PACs is they are suppose to be arms length from the candidate. Everyone knows they are not. The whole primary process, ugh, just ... no wonder people hate voting.
