Ron Paul Rakes In The Cash

Politico:

Ron Paul may not win his party's primary, but he is on track to capture another big title: top Republican fundraiser for the final quarter of the money-obsessed 2008 presidential primary.

In the first two months of the quarter that began Oct. 1, Paul already has raised more than $9.75 million, putting him easily within range to best the amount rival Mitt Romney received from donors during the entire third quarter.

Dismiss Dr. Paul at your own peril.

The neo cons and dems have felt the sting of his bite before!
Not too long ago, 5-6 yrs I think, the neo cons courted the only democratic challenger and asked him to jump ship and come to their side and run as a republican UNOPPOSED!
Well that was all fine and good, but Dr. Paul did not agree to this.
See Dr. Paul has been pissing off democrats here for years.
He will not give them their tax and spend.
He brings no pork.
He will not even vote a pay raise. NEVER! 20 years!
He also is extremely hated by most of the Republican party as well for going against almost all their votes.

Well the neos spent a million dollars in this campaign and Dr. Paul still won with a 15% margin!
They keep saying (dems) he gives NOTHING to our district "How does he keep getting elected"?
He brings NO pork, he will vote "nay" on all our district spending bills?
How does he do it?

The the Neos say, he wont take big oil money.
He is clean as a whistle.
He cant be bought.
He has won every time.
HOW??

You really must live in this district to REALLY appreciate Dr. Paul and his never ending defense of my civil rights and the protection of the constitution.
Looks like there must be a constitution problem..
Otherwise, unless its an economic problem I dont think he would run for office..

It must be one of those two things wrong for him to run.
He has practiced all his life on these to things and actually walks the walk.

People will see.
The bomb will be dropped soon.
The trolls here feel it.
Dr. Paul is the only candidate to report funding and contributions on his web site in REAL TIME...

Go see what his coffers have reached, real-time!

A quick look at some things Misanthrope has said:

Here's a few more zingers he's thrown at me (direct quotes):

"Nonsense. Most of my life consists of driving around the San Bernardino Mountains in a 4x4, armed and dangerous. I wear camo and look just like the hunters and gold miners. I can speak their language and if you met me on the trail, you would have not idea who I am. But you might want to watch your back. I know I do."

"Humans are stupid, greedy and dangerous. Specially the ones that like to sneak around killing animals for fun. But don't worry, I'm armed and I shoot about 1500 rounds a month."

"I have a really hot girlfriend I live with.

She is from Anaheim and is a hot little blonde, who grew up on the beaches of Orange County.

California women are the most beautiful women in the country, and if you travel, you would know that."

"Why do you think the elected judges made me a judge pro tem in my 20s? Because they loved me and I represented and advised a couple of judges. Oh yeah, my mentor was a very loved Orange County Superior Court judge for many years. I also know three justices of the court of appeals and I just heard a hello from a lawyer who knew me who is now a brilliant superior court judge. And then there are my classmates from USC who are judges. Judges love me."

He also went on to claim that he has an IQ of 191 and that he is so smart that he was studied by a university.

You can't make this stuff up. This guys #1 a lunatic and #2 an egomaniac.

Remember this man remains at large, is armed and extremely ridiculous.

Misanthrope on himself:

Ron Paul 2008!

    Favorite    Flag as abusive Posted 10:48 PM on 12/01/2007

Ron Paul understands that America is not the Social Worker of the World any more than we are the Policemen of the World. Most, if not all of our foreign policy actions have not only proved feckless, but many times harmful to the actual security interests of the American People and this Nation. It is time that we returned rational thought to this government, restrained by a reality that few politicians on either side of the political spectrum grasp.

Ron Paul is the only candidate that understands most of the issues this nation faces, it appears he is the only candidate that has an understanding of monetary mechanics, foreign policy and domestic policy. The rest are simpletons who appear to lack understanding of the concepts that will affect this Nation and its People in ways that we would rather not experience. Yet, those candidates happily promote their empty and unrealistic promises and their gullible supporters seem eager to consume their regurgitated tripe.
I have been a successful businessman for several decades, I have seen these political hacks of special interests and corporate darlings decimate this Nations economy and manufacturing base. They have continued to drive the workingman and woman of this Country into a slow road to being nothing more than productive serfs. I have witnessed the Administrations of 11 Presidents in this country, each have given this Nation precious little in the way of real leadership or common-sense decision-making. Ron Paul is that voice of common sense and a principled intellect beyond reproach. IT IS TIME TO PUT AMERICA AND AMERICANS FIRST-VOTE RON PAUL FOR A REAL CHANGE!!!!!

On numerous occasions, Ron Paul stood before the House of Representatives speaking out about the total lack of reason behind many, if not all of our foreign policies. He stated correctly that on most occasions this country has aided, armed, trained and entered into treaties with both sides of a conflict. He is correct when he states that this country has such an unfocused and broadly applied foreign policy that we fail to determine if our actions are actually in our Nations true best interest. In essence, we have no foreign policy, just a conglomeration of miscalculations that tend to bite us in the ass more times than it actually provides us with security or solutions. We have spent decades and billions upon billions of dollars on programs, policies and decisions that have failed to provide us with any real solutions.

Until I read Ron Paul’s book: A Foreign Policy of Freedom, I had no idea just how twisted our government really was. Ron Paul has proven to be a voice of clarity in a mass of confusion, misjudgment, miscalculation and mismanagement in government. His writings and knowledge of what is considered by many to be esoteric subjects like monetary policy, economics and the misapplication of a misdirected and broadly applied foreign policy is absolutely astounding and right on target. Ron Paul has correctly interpreted the consequences of these government’s actions time and time again. He predicted how the events would unfold years before they did and he was correct in his predictions.

The Entrenchment Parasitic Ticks from both political parties have spent the last 60 or so years sucking the Life Blood from this Nation and have asked the People to keep smiling and supporting their feckless leadership decision-makers. While they present different Actors, the screenplay is the same. Each election they get on their stage, their lines are well-rehearsed and their emotional plea to the voters rings out with a façade of sincerity, they cry out their empty promises and give no real answers to real issues faced by this Nation. Every four years this nation is swung to the Republicans or the Democrats, all hoping that this time it will be different, but it never is, it is always the same because the agendas are always the same. They care nothing for the People of this Country and at times, witnessed by the folly of their legislations, it appears that they care little for the Country itself.

The American People are once again given scant choices when it comes to another election; in fact, we only have one choice among the cadre of regurgitated spectacle of candidates presented by the Entrenchment Political Apparatus of the Republican and Democratic Parties and that choice is Ron Paul. Each party have had their respective turns at the ruination of this Country for decades with no solutions to the problems that they themselves have caused; every four years we have been given choices that amount to no choice and their staged production continues to recycle the same type of candidate time and time again.

misanthrope2, please don't post a full page of stuff. We've read your comparison with McVeigh. Can we please stay on the issues? Please do not keep hijacking the thread. I respectfully ask you to do so.

$10.4M, well ahead of what he budgeted for the first primary states. He'll probably place 4th or 5th in IA, but he will have a victory in NH, which will force the MSM to give him the attention he deserves as a candidate with fresh ideas.

Ron Paul Copper Dollar is 22 europence

George Bush dollar W1,000,000 to the Euro

Bush fears real money:
Early Thursday morning federal agents from the Secret Service and FBI raided the Evansville, Indiana offices of NORFED, makers of the Liberty Dollar and other alternative 'barter' currencies of which they claim to have $20 million dollars in circulation. The business, owned by Bernard von Nothaus, mints copper, gold, silver and platinum coinage and produces paper certificates with fixed values based on their reserve of gold and silver.

Ron Paul is the one Republican who appeals to the right wingers who have figured out that Bush is an evil fascist who hates poor people.....of all colors.

The massive corruption and pursuit of everything that helps corporate profit (often at the expense of working people) by fascists has finally started to piss off the right wingers.
But they could never never never vote for a Democrat so Ron Paul speaks to them.
Fine.

On the Democratic side there is also an awakening going on.
Progressives are starting to wake up to the sad and tragic reality that DLC fascist whores have taken over the party.
Progressives are on the outside looking in.....looking at corporate fascist scum talking peace and making war.

The Kucinich factor is greater on the Democratic side than the Paul factor on the right.
But they are both symptomatic of the illness that ails our nation.
The merger of Democrats and Republicans into one giant pigs at the trough fascist party.
They serve and are part of corporate America.
The people no longer have a voice.

This backlash on the left and the right is healthy and needed.
I would never vote Repuke or for Paul, but I wish him and his supporters good luck.

I am all in with Kucinich until the vile DLC bounces him out of the race.....then it will be the Green party for me.

Check out their homepage.....good Americans doing good things.

Let 2008 be the year of electoral chaos, when dirty corrupt fat cats in both parties get their walking papers.

Power to the people. Change the rules.
