Many of you know that I help organize the Duncan Hunter "meetup" group(s). I decided to peek in at the "competition" and found it very interesting that Ron Paul supporters are being urged to attend the MoveOn.org rally....
http://ronpaul.meetup.com/1/boards/view/viewthread?thread=3421862
I post this because I know there are a lot of folks on FR that support Ron Paul.. I just wonder if you are participating in this effort.. or what you think about this whole business of catering to MoveOn.org
.... quote from an active Ron Paul supporter
Somebody posted a thread concerning moveon, and letting their members know about Ron Paul. As a member of moveon.org, I received today an invitation to create an anti-war rally on August 28th. They will be doing rallies all across the nation on that day. We should invade this event. During the rally, bring anti-war stickers, signs, and flags -- and also Ron Paul signs. Introduce moveon members to Ron Paul, the REAL anti-war candidate! Anti-war people will ask about Ron Paul and be introduced to him on that day. Don't be rude, just gently introduce people to the peace candidate. Moveon.org is well cordinated, so if enough of our people show up at their rallies, we might be able to convert a huge number of people.
I have already created a moveon.org anti-war rally, on the 28th at 7pm, right outisde of the West Covina Mall. Please, everybody who can in this group, COME. It's on the corner of Vincent and Plaza Drive in West Covina.

1689, I hadn’t seen you on this thread so I thought I’d ping you to it. Karsten and his crew did a great job invading a MoveOn event to promote Ron Paul. It’s a long and tangled thread but was so successful, the mods had to remove it from Breaking News (after they themselves put it there, LOL).
LOL! I talked to him on the phone yesterday and asked him what he thought of Paul. He said that, a few years ago, he penned an essay called, “Time to break out the ice skates?” (or something like that) He thought hell had frozen over because he liked something about Paul (the surrender monkey stance, of course.) So, I asked him then, if he was interested in being put in contact with a Paul group. (I’m always happy to saddle you guys with more loons!) He said, “Of course not!” I said, “Why not?” He said, and I quote, “Because he’s a ‘Friggin Nazi’!” Sorry, I love my geeky brother, but he’s even too loony for you guys!
So we have Moveon.org, ANSWER and Code Pink type scum signing on to FR now and posing as "conservatives?"
Gee, I don't smell an agenda here...does anyone else?
What a bunch of hypocrites some of these people are.
This Karsten person organizes anti-war rallies. Are he and his supporters really the sort of people we want on FR?
I don’t know if he is a genuine Moveon.org type or if he is just using Moveon.org. I don’t care if he posts here as long as there is full disclosure. My only point is, Paulbearers are actively and unapologetically recruiting moonbats — and they aren’t doing it by telling them he wants to repeal the Department of Education and privatize social security! If they want to court truthers and other moonbat types, so be it. But they can’t turn around and cry foul when we present Paul as the candidate of the kooks.
I saw on his site a few days back that he was active in the organization of some anti-war rally.
Those people have DU, Daily KOS and other sites. There's no need for them to come and pollute FR with that peacenik crap, IMO.
I'm in an internet cafe on a theater gateway base right now, surrounded by eager troops headed into Iraq. I despise anything that impugns the honor and nobility of these people and the mission they are serving for all of us.
I'm curious if other places are under attack by the PaulMauls.
This statement alone shows us the mindset of Ron Paul supporters. And yet, they want us to support Ronnie and put aside the nuttiness of his supporters.
Not gonna happen.

There is a lot at play and many hidden strings that are being pulled to see that fail in our endeavor in the Middle East.
Whos interests would be served by the Jihad winning the war?
Russia
China
Venezuela
The Democratic party
Most of the media
Most of Europe
That just makes me itch thinking about being in bed with that crowd. Doesnt it seem strange that the Paulistinians would be encouraging freepers to join them?
Whos interests would be served by the Jihad winning the war? Whos interests would be served by electing a anti-war candidate and why wouldnt they funnel money to organizations to push a presidential candidate that will lose the war to the Jihadists?
I don’t believe there actually was an article in the SGV Tribune this morning. I couldn’t find one. I saw stuff on the Pasadena rally, but not our West Covina one. I think since the Ron Paul people invaded it, they didn’t want to cover it. The MSM blackout of Ron Paul continues...
This kinda gives credence to my theory that:
* They have the 20% Libertarian vote locked in
* They think they have 10-15% of the rat vote
* They cannot afford to lose any R voters who might come back around when the surge shows success- 10%.
“Did you try getting him drunk first?” LOL! I don’t live anywhere near him. To read some of his ramblings, one would think he is in a constant state of intoxication.
“Observing these threads does make one somewhat knowledgeable, yes...”
Good, from now on if I need a translation of something that one of the Paul supporters say that makes no sense to me, I will run it past you and see if you can interpret it for me.
It’s easy, just put on the tinfoil, crouch down in the bunker and think that the last good idea anyone ever had was in 1789...
