I just talked to Tyler Collins, who politely declined to comment as he adjusts to life as the subject of a multi-tier campaign of citizen journalism investigating his life as a Democratic activist. You know Collins. He was the guy who dressed up as a slack-jawed "Rand Paul fan," wearing a tinfoil hat and holding a sign that echoed/parodied conservative fears about illegal immigration.
Why is Collins lying low? Because he has a long picture and paper trail as a Democratic activist.

Paul’s position on wanting to limit the scope of our Naitonal Security to it’s barest limits is well known. It is also known now that he wants to push his perverted morality on our troops and violate their rights by forcing them to bunk and shower with people who openly express their perversion for the same gender.
Of course though that is most probably your own stance as well. I am sure you would want the TEA party to be neutral to supporting Code Pink members in it’s ranks aas well and supporting Code Pink type candidates like Paul as well.
Excellent observation.
Following that same line of logic, what is your opinion of bloggers who borrow videos
from Youtube and post teasers here linking to a blog where the stolen video may be viewed?
If the blog or video or even photo furthers debate, it is great. If it is a way to get out of a debate, then it is a cop out.
Yet in a thread about a social conservative getting kicked out of a TEA party you also thought that was great.
It is you who want to limit debate. You argue on and on about how the TEA party must be limited and not take sides against social Marxism but then you cop out and wont even admit your stance.
I told you my stance. I dont think the Tea Party should address social issues. You took that to mean that I think they should support marxism, because you want to believe that anyone who is fighting one front must be fighting all fronts. you dont live in the real world, where there are social groups, fiscal groups, and defense groups that push their 1 thing, and together, they make up the movement.
No. I never claimed that you wanted the TEA party to openly support social Marxism. I simply pointed out that you have no problem with social Marxism being accepted within the TEA party.
You also insist that the TEA party MUST remain neutral to accepting social Marxism as well. You insist it. So maybe you have a covert agenda to support social Marxism.
Your position is one of appeasement to social Marxism. I though openly oppose that position and urge the TEA party to oppose Marxism in all of its forms.
David Weigel Explains Away 'JournoList' E-mails by Claiming to be a Jerk
From the WAPO to Slate. Next stop for David: fetching coffee for Joe Conason at the New York Observer.
These "chicken and egg" arguments go nowhere. Islamist attacks over the years were like getting beaten in a dark room by multiple assailants who cannot be seen, or stopped long enough to hit them back.
Then they laid on the last straw on 9/11, and it was time to act. That's to "hit back," not "inflame the region."
Unfortunately, after eight years of W's gaining the fear and respect of our enemies, zer0 has squandered every moment and every effort and every lost son and daughter.
Wake up, Pauls (useful idiots). We didn't start it, but if you and zer0 manage to stop our finishing it, we will lose.
Okay, hang on...are you talking about Rand or Ron being for gays in the military?
Just like conservative purists, who champion social issues constantly bemoan RINO Republican Country Club elitists, while GOP supporters of fiscal issues would like the pro-lifers to just go away. The truth is, there is no power for any side if one group is forced out.
The Tea Parties, like the Republican party, need the pro-God, pro-business and pro-defense factions TOGETHER to cause fear in the Left.
You acknowledge that and still insist the tea parties ignore "social issues". Ridiculous.
Ron Paul recently supported the repeal of DADT claiming that he wants homosexuality to be treated the same as heterosexuality. His son has rarely commented on the issue.
Of course Ron Paul claims to be a champion of individual liberty but yet I guess he has no problem setting up a double-standard whereas men and women are separated in facilities for sleeping and showering to avoid any problems involving heterosexuality but then wants a policy that would force soldiers to have to share facilities for sleeping and showering with others who openly express a perversion for the same gender. Paul is then perverting the concept of individual liberty.
If you want to give Rand Paul a clean slate then go ahead that is fine but he is very similar to his pervert, anti-National Security, terrorist apologist father in many ways so I will view him as tainted in that way until he proves otherwise.
I'm willing to give Rand the benefit of the doubt if people can supply actual quotes one way or the other.
Conservatives will be powerless against Obama and the Left if Republicans don't get a working majority in November. Discouraging voter turnout by weakening primary winners is the same as voting Democrat.
I agree politics is about numbers. But individual groups should focus on what they are good at. All those groups together make the movement strong.
And I only “insist” the Tea Party stick to fiscal issues because that is what the Tea Party is about.
This message brought to you by "Humblegunner: Free Republic's chief advocate for a Democrat-Majority Senate in 2010".
If you like Jack Conway's politics better than Rand Paul's, then it is you who are the "Kook".
Which, even if true, has exactly WHAT to do with Rand Paul -- whose disagreements with his father on these subjects (in favor of continuing operations against Al Queda in Afghanistan, and Military Tribunals for Terror suspects held at Guantanamo) are well known?
I think Roseanne Barr is Jewish (though that doesn’t preclude her supporting antisemites etc).
