f**** him, too little too

Submitted by hawkiye on Sat, 03/07/2009 - 01:30.

f**** him, too little too late! He just wants traffic. And wants on the Ron Paul was right band wagon. He was on the Ron Paul is a kook band wagon during the election. He's nothing but a fashion rider!

I seem to recall that Andrew Malcolm wrote some nasty

Submitted by freddiel on Fri, 03/06/2009 - 18:01.

pieces on RP while he was campaigning. I wouldn't be so quick to pat him on the back. My guess is that he needs to show that people still read his blogs. He knows that RP's faithful students will be there in a heartbeat. This is just my opinion.

But as I read it, I realized it was done in the same vein as Jonathan Swift or Mark Twain to drive the point home.

Love the photo of Ron Paul with the infant!

Good article, but didn't much care for 'old coot.'

Ron Paul is far, far from being an old coot. OK, so he's older than most of us. But he is also smarter and more honorable. The writer of this excellent piece finally realized what a smart and well-principled man Ron Paul is, and then had the guts to write about it.

I am happy.

I think the author was just

I think the author was just trying to be ironic. After all, he's not a young buck himself.

I didn't like that either.

I'm starting to see a pattern with the "left-handed compliments".

The word "old" comes up a lot, even though, for a member of Congress, Dr. Paul's age is hardly out of step. Most people in Congress are well over 60 and many are over 70.

and was gonna post it as well =D I think it is a very good article, and the use of sarcasm really might hit the masses (as long as they get that it is indeed sarcasm, and Ron was right). But I must applaud the writer of that article, because he drives such a solid point, and does it so well! Thanks henri for posting this, I think everyone should read the article.
