Thought you might find this interesting. I decided to do a search on LaRouche because there are some who are comparing him to Paul.
I found no less than five sites of LaRouche supporters going nuts because of the comparison.
Their theory is LaRouche is a reasonable and thoughtful man and Paul is just a nut case.
And it just gets better and better.....
(Read up again on LaRouche and just not seeing much difference at all between the two, except he is/was running as a democrat and Paul keeps sticking it the Republicans.)
There are two groups that remind me of Lyndon LaRouche and his soldiers. That's the Paulbots, with their fervor and ubiquity, and the hardfaces on Obama's staff (Plouffe, Axelrod, Jarrett) who are sticking it to this country despite their Dear Leader's fecklessness and ineffectuality. I'd number ex-Sen. Tom Daschle among the latter, since he's a) a hardface (just look at him) and b) he was the political godfather and imagineer of the Obama "blank movie screen" ballyhoo campaign.
LaRouche was a KGB Active Measures asset who (supposedly) went indie after a while. (Not necessarily.) And of course Obama's crowd were all CPUSA, SDS, and/or Weather Underground and ACORN and Move veterans (or survivors) from back in the day. Notice that the connections between the New Democratic Party and the Obama Administration are mostly Old Left, i.e. CPUSA, Saul Alinsky, Wade Rathke, rather than New Left (the Mobe, CORE, Panther Party, Bill and Hillary's SDS -- which last was also mentored by Active Measures back in the 60's and 70's).
