Ron Paul Nearly Doubles Donations Since Butting Heads with Rudy Giuliani

Monroe, Ga. 5/31/2007 3:09 PM GMT (FINDITT)

The general feeling after the Republican Presidential debate held in South Carolina on May 15 was that Rudy Giuliani got the better of Texas Republican Ron Paul but according to Paul backers the congressman has seen his donations nearly double since challenging Giuliani on the U.S. involvement in Iraq.

During the debate Paul was asked whether a Republican could stay true to their party and support a measure to bring American troops home at the same time. In response Paul remarked “I think the party has lost its way, because the conservative wing of the Republican Party always advocated a non-interventionist foreign policy. Senator Robert Taft didn’t even want to be in NATO. George Bush won the election in the year 2000 campaigning on a humble foreign policy - no nation-building, no policing of the world.”

I would think radical terrorists would appreciate his efforts toward “understanding” and dramatically increase their giving.

[Sleeping Beauty]

I know of some very wealthy and influential people (including former congress critters) who are backing Paul. They are old-school conservatives — hardcore.

You advertise yourself as an Alex Jones fan.

Do you share Alex Jones' belief that the terror attacks on 9/11 were the work of the federal government?

You speak in very religious tones - what was your take on Alex Jones' lengthy interview with HUSTLER Magazine?

Probably gold investors as one of his big economic stances is going back to the gold standard.. (which, IMHO, would be disastrous for everyone but those already staged with large gold investments.)

That comment is outrageous!

It’s got to be at least $30 by now!

[wideawake]

When are you Paul fans going to give it up?

They will give it up at the point the Buchanan deadenders gave it up - by dying of aneurysms as they struggle to escape their straitjackets.

Alex Jones?? Isn’t that the same guy that believes in the ‘global Jewish banking conspiracy’ and the secret trilateral commission that really runs the UN? That guy makes David Icke look halfway sane.

[mnehring]

You are right.. I forgot to account for what his mom gave him.

Yes, following the Constitution is the zinger. Bush and company apparently could care less especially when comes to illegal immigration.

What does the Constitution say about the distinction between legal and illegal immigration?

[ex-snook]

Somebody should sponsor a one-on-one pay-per-view debate between Ron Paul and the arrogant, ignorant, liberal, abortion and gay loving, cross-dressing, Kerik appointing, blowhard Rudolph. Winner take all.

[mnehring]

Ouch.. I just checked.. Alex Jones was the guy I was thinking of..

This is the conspiracy theorist of InfoWars and Prison Planet fame.. why am I not surprised that Ron Paulites also connect with him...

BTW, how is the construction of the Wal Mart detention centers coming?

Okay, so, should we should put you down as undecided?

Folks, we are being spammed.
WE are experiencing part of the Dog Paul* Internet Drive.
This is getting ridiculous.
How many Dog Paul* stories can we see per day here?
Why does JimRob block Rudy supporters but not Dog Paul* ones - who could do a lot more damage in 2008?
I say let him be honest - run as a Libertarian - he is NOT a Republican!

(*because on the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog...)

Yes, this is the same Alex Jones.

David Icke, who believes that George W. Bush is a reptilian humanoid from another planet and that The Protocols Of The Elders Of Zion are fact, is a regular guest on Alex Jones' program.

Ron Paul has appeared as a guest on Jones' show. He received a warm welcome from Jones, they had a very amiable conversation, Jones invited him back, and Jones' audience had an overwhelmingly positive reaction to his interview.

Probably gold investors as one of his big economic stances is going back to the gold standard.

I received a "letter" yesterday from Ron Paul discussing monetary standards. Going back to gold is not even a remote possiblity. I'd post the letter, if you're interested. It's kinda long.

(BTW, I'm a Romney fan, followed by Fred, followed by whomever wins the Republican nomination.)

[mnehring]

Maybe someone should ask Paul in the next debate if he believes that President Bush is a reptilian alien?

Why would anyone want to pay money to watch a mental patient and a Democrat shout at each other?

Ping me when you do.
