Ron Paul supporters urged to attend MoveOn.org Rally !

RonPaul MeetUp Group ^ | 26 August 2007 | David Osborne

[davidosborne]

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.

Nearly all of them are anti-war because they see the constitution as a suicide pact. They’d rather al Qaeda attack us again then to see the constitution for what really has been for over 200 years; they’ve turned it into an icon and their guru, Ron Paul, has them in a masochistic frame of mind, like catamites in a jail, they’d bend over for al Qaeda.

Another group supporting Ron Paul is at this web site.

No surprise, is it?

[West Coast Conservative]

Well, there’s no real difference between Paulestinians and MoveOn.org when it comes to foreign policy:

Anti-war, anti-Bush, anti-Israel, thinks American foreign policy is to blame for 9/11, etc.

Let's see, you posted this Orwellian piece twice, in caps to start off the "discussion."

PEACE THROUGH STRENGHTH -- NOT DEFEAT

Every post from 2 - 8 (I wasn't singling you out earlier) contains an insult to a solid conservative candidate or about his supporters.

so again, do these folks accurately represent the views of Ron Paul?

Doubt it highly, but I'm sure that won't stop the agenda to try to discredit Paul.

[reasonisfaith]

If Ron Paul’s idiotic position on Iraq (which alone is enough to sink him) hasn’t done it, the fact that Communists are pleased with Ron Paul should be reason enough for conservatives to stop and take a hard look at his candidacy.

“MoveOn moonbats try to snooker Paul supporters?” Only problem with that is you have it BASS ACKWARDS! It isn’t the moonbats trying to snooker the aPaulogists — it is the other way around!

Nice catch...

Ron Paul’s “anti-war” views have made him unacceptable as a GOP nominee. I CONCUR

The libertarian view that the government should be doing less and spending less is absolutely correct though. I MOSTLY CONCUR - I am still pro war on drugs

The GOP must become a party that makes “conservative” a verb instead of a noun. I CONCUR

Its time to stop calling ourselves “conservatives” and start acting as “conservatives.” I CONCUR

And I define conservative action as focusing government on basics like national defense and border security. I CONCUR

The other programs must be revisisted. We must dismantle the idols of the Great Society and the New Deal.

I CONCUR

May I introduce you to Duncan Hunter?

[elhombrelibre]

Not only communists, with Ron Paul accepting al Qaeda's explanations for its attacks and mass murder in America, he is discredited like the naive boob he is.

I’m not keeping up with the Ron Paul effort, but I have listened to him on Air America a couple of times.

GW & OP,

I’m not siding with this at all. I just want a straight up answer about whether or not either of YOU know of any organizing for Ron Paul that is officially or unofficially being conducted by Moveon.org?

[Drango]

that's because half the Ron Paul supporters on FR belong to MoveOn, and just post here to stir up trouble.

LIAR

It's more like 90%

[Abcdefg]

David has the Paul haters worried that Freepers might crash a MoveOn event and see them there.;^)

[SoldierDad]

No wonder you support this candidate, because you are simply nothing more than an FR troll. Here is an article that demonstrably shows just what your candidate really is. A liberal masquarading as a conservative masquarading as a libertarian. You and your friends are one of the reasons this country faces an enemy from within.

[LdSentinal]

OMG. Ron Paul has been on ‘Air Al-Queda’?

[uglybiker]

I'm just wondering how Ron Paul's gonna get his message out

now that the Weekly World News is shutting down. ;-)

[Pistolshot]

Paul's supporters don't own landlines and don't watch CBS Evening News.

Dead last in the polls is where he will stay.

[davidosborne]

I have no agenda to discredit Ron Paul or anyone else for that matter.. this is PRIMARY season.. it’s appropriate to consider the differing opinions of candidates.. and yes supporters of a particular candidate are fair game so long as they accurately represent the views of the candidate.. what you are saying is that THIS group of Ron Paul supporters that I quoted DO NOT accurately represent the views of their candidate.. If that is what you are saying that that is a FAIR and HONEST assessment of YOUR opinion.. no need to bash anyone..

[hinckley buzzard]

Anti-war people will ask about Ron Paul and be introduced to him on that day.

Quaint. As if MoveOn drones could possibly give a sh*t less about "peace." They want peace about as much as Le Duc Tho did at the Paris Peace talks.
