Guess where your editor went, on Tuesday? That’s right, to the magical Ron Paul Concert, in downtown Minneapolis.
It is a very pleasant downtown, what with the skyways and the old steak houses and the outdoor bars on that pedestrian street and the nice people. Even the bums are so friendly and welcoming, here in this place, which we can’t wait to leave in the morning.
Anyway, enough with the stupid Minnesota cliches, which are all true, because it is important to watch this video and realize the “Rally for the Republic” was a heartbreakingly sad and empty event. Photo essay coming soon.











Wait, Ron Paul is still alive? I’d assumed he’d died, considering his followers had begun worshipping him and expecting his return any day now.
I see the ad for George Stepontopofus talking to Obama on Sunday….
Wasn’t he the fucker who went off about flag pins and Mooslims and created a mess of rowdy bullshit?
Z0MG Amazing. Limp Blimp is my new favorite comeback.
“Community Organizing Sucks!”
“SHUT THE FUCK UP, LIMP BLIMP!!!1!”
I could say it for five and a half years, alan…
that is a flaccid rally.
The rEVOLution has not been televised.
That blimp looks flat to me.
So, is that a blimp in your pocket, or are you just not very glad to see me?
That was really boring. Almost as bad as the other convention.
It was so nice for Ron Paul to deliver to snark sites such as this the image of a limping, half-deflated blimp, a perfect metaphor for his entire political career. Personally, I’m a little offended. Did he think we needed the help? Were we not able to lambaste him without the visual aids?
What a dick.
shortsshortsshorts: I wonder how much flat money the paultardpalooza lost? It doesn’t really matter cuz it’s flat, right? Or did they pay for it in dubloons…
shortsshortsshorts: Hm… Barry does Papa Bear to step on McNasty’s speech today. Barry does KO next week giving Rachel Maddow a huge lead-in audience. Barry and friends do all the Sunday shows…. looks like somebody has a media strategy. Take up all the airtime and the questions about Nanookie of the North continue unanswered.

Rally for the Republic (RPR)
or Gaullists
Former French political party. It was founded by Jacques Chirac in 1976 as the successor to the various Gaullist coalitions that dominated the political life of the Fifth Republic under Charles de Gaulle and Georges Pompidou. The party had its antecedents in the group Rally of the French People, organized by de Gaulle in 1947. It evolved into the Union for the New Republic (1958–62) and then the Union of Democrats for the New Republic (1968–76) before assuming the name Rally for the Republic. In 2002 the party merged with the Liberal Democratic party and much of the Union for the French Democracy to form the Union for a Popular Movement.

What did you do to deserve going to that, Ken?
And where’s the lighting?
Hey Paultards, didn’t one of you think about paying the electricity bill?
So you snuck out of the Gimp/Chimp convention to go to the Limp/Blimp rally. Wimp.
What a bunch of rEVOLosers.
NoWireHangers: Gimp the Pimp.

I’m not looking forward to the day when Palin’s Liberty Blimps go Limp.
oh my god. a toy blimp now that Paultardia is too broke to pay for the real thing. it being half-inflated. the mostly empty auditorium and general lack of sweaty, depressing nonthusiasm. it is perfect.
JadedDIssonance: She’s 44. It’s either that or get herself a Freedom Titjob.
I know you didn’t identify yourself Ken. The Paultards would have torn you to apart and presented the pieces to Ron Paul/Ming The Merciless.
Strictly for the Tardcore: This last time she can “milk” the pregnancy excuse. Having a baby is just a temporary bust enhancement anyway.
shortsshortsshorts: I saw part of it on CSPAN - looked like the
He Man Woman Haters club - not a vagina in sight.
JadedDIssonance: Pure Gold Bullions and nothing more.
Vanity Smurf: And his media strategy is of course, sexistful.
jodyleek: I commend you for putting up not only for C-SPAN, but the Paultard convention as well. Your sacrifices for our nation know no bounds.
The People’s ReLOVElutionary Tribunal will *deal* with you for this.
Looks like they got halfway through filling the blimp when somebody decided to “end inflation.”
That Ron Paul couldn’t produce popular enthusiasm for his common sense platform just underscores how heinously ignorant the American voter is. If everything goes down the toilet, then I can say with confidence that we deserve every bit of it.
Strictly for the TardcoreI figure you’re either a communist or a neotard who doesn’t understand a damn thing Ron Paul had to say. At the very minimum its obvious you’re a jerk.
