Ron Paul Shills for Klan-Endorsed Carpetbagger

POSTED BY: Dylan Ris

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.)

  1. Yaaaawn, what a pathetic attempt at…humor, is it?

  2. omg omg omg….whoever the clan endorses should not only be immediately disqualified but lynched as well!

  3. Dylan, I believe you dropped this outside.

  4. Btw, that's not an endorsement of the KKK, but seriously now, it's 2008. Does anyone care what the KKK does?

    Of course not. That's why it's an epic fail to being them up as a scare tactic. What next, an Obama supporter has a Che Guevara flag in her office! OMGZ!

  5. In my pathetic protest to this unfunny and unsmart piece I will not watch Jon for the remainder of the week, and I love his show as it's funny AND smart – well, mostly. You can't be genius all the time.

    When I return to watching his show next Monday I will remember how much Dylan really sucks for putting me in a position to have missed Jon for so long as not patronizing his show and this brief post are my best options as I see it to protest this ignorant fallacy that Jon so often ridicules – and the reason I watch him so.

    And to Jon – don't let the ass clowns infect your show even if they do shill for your politcal gang colors!

  6. There's nothing funnier than a self-righteous Ron Paul fanatic. Get over yourselves. If this had been any other candidate, you'd laugh and perhaps even contribute money to the other side. But because it's Ron Paul, you throw a hissy fit and claim you're going to boycott the network and all other kinds of crap. Get a life. Why waste your days on the internet, shouting lame put-downs when a comedy website dares to make fun of your beloved candidate, the same way they make fun of everyone else's candidate? Ron Paul didn't get to Congress by being a petty prick who throws a tantrum every time someone makes a joke at his expense. So learn from him and lighten up for once in your lives.

  7. Just because someone is endorsed by an organization doesn't mean that he agrees with the mission of that organization.

  8. Dylan,you are a a pathetic, ignorant scum of the earth who deserves nothing short of deportation and a slow, painful death.

    Who cares who the KKK endorses? Quit ligitimizing them by acting as if it matters.

    This sums up my point:

  9. You know Al Qaeda also endorsed John McCain; therefore we cannot vote for him either. Pardon the saracasm, but the reasoning behind this article is irrational. I did not vote for McCain or Obama, because they are basically the same: on….EVERYTHING. What's the difference on immigration and global warming? What's the difference on stem cell? What's the difference on Iraq from here on out (not the past)? The answer to all of the above is of course none. What's the difference with taxes…..there is marginal difference since NEITHER will cut spending. One candidate will indebt me more now, versus indebt me more in the future. People have to stop pretending that their policies are different and realize the rhetoric and representation is the difference.

  10. So what? TDS shills for Obama every night. Stewart brings war criminals on his show, tosses them softballs, flutters his eyelashes, and calls them interviews. So what?
