Ron Paul Shills for Klan-Endorsed Carpetbagger
Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) is well known to be Capitol Hill's voice of measured reason and old-fashioned morality, at least on days when Joe Lieberman is out bloviating for Sarah Palin.
Well this week, Dr. Paul cast his gaze of reason and morality across this great land and came to the same conclusion that the Ku Klux Klan did in 2003: California must elect State Rep. Tom McClintock to higher office…
Paul, the libertarian-Republican congressman from Texas who raised more than $34 million for his presidential race, sent out an e-mail last week urging his massive donor base to contribute to McClintock.
"Tom McClintock is one of the most promising warriors in the fight against big government we have seen in a long time, and the special interests and big bankers know it. … You have stood with me as….
…I campaigned for the Presidency to return our federal government to its proper role. Will you help me bring a reliable ally to Congress?"
Beyond the Klan's endorsement, Paul must have admired McClintock's one-man foiling of a Chinese plot to steal oil off the coast of Florida — a region that is roughly the same distance from McClintock's home as the district he's running in.
With a resume like McClintock's, you have to wonder how Paul picked him over equally reasonable, moral candidates like, say, Ted Stevens.
(By the way, just to give Ron Paul supporters a head start on the comments section, let me just point out that I am a pathetic, ignorant scum of the earth who deserves nothing short of deportation and a slow, painful death.)

I know this is a "comedy blog" but it's just not funny. The onion makes fun of Ron Paul all the time, but it's funny.
@shannon
yeah but unlike the onion, this actually happened!
Let me add the potheads here at Cannabis Culture Magazine think very highly of Tom McClintock. Tom has always been supportive of medical marijuana in the California legislature, and is in favor of repealing prohibition. His very libertarian views are consistent and admirable, much like Ron Paul's libertarian views, and we love Ron Paul.
Any committed activist from the marijuana legalization movement will be supporting McClintock over the Democrat Charlie Brown, a blue-dog Dem who is less progressive on drug law reform than McClintock.
Similarly, Ron Paul has endorsed John Lawson in North Carolina's 4th district, who is in favor of ending the war on drugs completely.
Ron Paul has great values and principles and his endorsements are for candidates with exemplary platforms on liberty and freedom.
Here is Republican BJ Lawson on Repealing Drug Prohibition, from his website. McClintock believes in the same principles.
BJ Lawson Drug Prohibition
"As a physician, I am particularly appalled by our treating drug abuse as a criminal offense rather than an individual medical problem. A particularly egregious byproduct of federal drug prohibition is our inherently unjust way of prosecuting these "crimes" and administering sentences, as rates of drug abuse and incarceration provide ample evidence for institutionalized racism. I reject the idea of incarcerating potentially productive individuals for making choices that hurt only themselves.
In Congress, I will work to end federal drug prohibition and federally mandated drug sentences. These policies are unconstitutional, disproportionately punish the poor and disenfranchised, and empower an underground economy of dangerous criminals that further destabilize disadvantaged communities. Changing our destructive drug policies will create a more just society by reducing crime and violence, reducing rates of drug addiction, and reducing the expense and long-term economic damage of imprisonment.
We learned through experience that alcohol prohibition was an expensive and dangerous failure that empowered organized crime while not reducing alcohol consumption. Today, it is easier for children to obtain "illegal" drugs than regulated substances like alcohol and tobacco. Finally, common-sense state-level regulation of alcohol and tobacco has eliminated the underground economy trafficking those substances, along with its accompanying crime and violence."
Ron Paul! nuff said…
What a silly post.
It takes a depraved individual to insult a man who has spent 30 years trying to prevent the American economy from collapsing.
Let's see how long America can function on a 30% tax burden. I guarantee the economy cannot sustain such an intrusive and restrictive governmental system. America and Europe's economies will continue to see their slow slide, interspersed with periodic market crashes, due to the false notion that a society can survive restrictions and high tax burdens.
Dear congenital moron,
I am a Californian, and I know Tom McClintock is a good public servant. He has no control of the KKK's endorsement anymore than Obama had control over Louis Farrakhan's endorsement.
Kindly remove your head from your ass.
Tom McClintock is a penny pinching miser but an honest politician, & therefore unsuited to political office.

"A Special Issue on Racial Terrorism" analyzes the Los Angeles riots of 1992: "Order was only restored in L.A. when it came time for the blacks to pick up their welfare checks three days after rioting began. … What if the checks had never arrived? No doubt the blacks would have fully privatized the welfare state through continued looting. But they were paid off and the violence subsided." – Ron Paul

The November 1990 issue of the Political Report had kind words for David Duke.
This newsletter describes Martin Luther King Jr. as "a world-class adulterer" who "seduced underage girls and boys" and "replaced the evil of forced segregation with the evil of forced integration." – Ron Paul
An October 1990 edition of the Political Report ridicules black activists, led by Al Sharpton, for demonstrating at the Statue of Liberty in favor of renaming New York City after Martin Luther King. The newsletter suggests that "Welfaria," "Zooville," "Rapetown," "Dirtburg," and "Lazyopolis" would be better alternatives–and says, "Next time, hold that demonstration at a food stamp bureau or a crack house." – Ron Paul

From the August 1990 issue of the Political Report: "Bring Back the Closet!"
The June 1990 issue of the Political Report says: "I miss the closet. Homosexuals, not to speak of the rest of society, were far better off when social pressure forced them to hide their activities." – Ron Paul
A January 1994 edition of the Survival Report states that "gays in San Francisco do not obey the dictates of good sense," adding: "[T]hese men don't really see a reason to live past their fifties. They are not married, they have no children, and their lives are centered on new sexual partners." Also, "they enjoy the attention and pity that comes with being sick." – Ron Paul
Ron Paul's advice to his fellow Libertarians
The October 1992 issue of the Political Report paraphrases an "ex-cop" who offers this strategy for protecting against "urban youth": "If you have to use a gun on a youth, you should leave the scene immediately, disposing of the wiped off gun as soon as possible. Such a gun cannot, of course, be registered to you, but one bought privately (through the classifieds, for example)." – Ron Paul.
