Don Black, Nazi, Donates $500 To *Doctor* Ron Paul
I thought I needed to include the honorific or else Ron Paul's Undead Army would get angry.
Not an earth-shaking story, but interesting. Doctor Paul's brand of conspiratorial resentment demagoguery does seem to attract those who wallow in conspiratorial resentment. Truthers, Nazis, those who never shut the fuck up about the Trilateral Commission -- all are welcome aboard Captain Ron's Ship of Crazy.
It got so bad at RedState, with "MoRons" robotically writing "go ron go" every other post, they had to ban all "Ron Paul pimping," except by those commenters grandfathered in by long-time association with the site.
Representative email from Doctor Ron's supporters: "I smell Hebrews [behind this decision]."
Meh. I don't completely buy that a candidate isn't responsible for his supporters. If a campaign attracts so many malcontents, racists, anti-semites, paranoids, America-haters, conspiracy-mongers, and political pornographers, well, I assume there's a reason for this grand crossing-the-streams of weirdness.
Thanks to Rightwingsparkle and, I think, someone.
Maybe... they can get these guys aboard the Freak-Train while they're at it.
