Here’s some fun news: Ron Paul just slammed the hell out of Sarah Palin. It’s in The Politico, even! But, bizarrely, he mocks Palin’s idiot supporters as “more establishment, conventional Country-Club type of Republicans.” Dr. Paul, have you seen the YouTubes of the dumb white trash who lined up to yell racist idiocy while Palin stood there grinning?
“I wonder whether she’s energizing the 15-20 year olds,” Paul asks The Politico. Umm, only the ones whose parents dragged them to the Palin Klan Rally, but the plump little ‘tards we saw attending those rallies looked to be more like 10 years old, 5 years old, who knows. Who can tell?
“That would be a question I would have. Because she doesn’t talk about the Federal Reserve and some of these issues. She doesn’t talk too much about personal liberties, civil liberties, getting rid of drug laws, attacking the war on drugs, punishing people who torture.”
Of course she doesn’t, Dr. Paul! She’s never heard of any of those things, out there in the real pro-America America.
I think he’s referring to Bill Kristol.
Which let’s face it, is the only supporter Palin has ever needed.
Why is that Muslin baby SH*&ing ON THE AMERICAN FLAG?!?
The only person who is legally entitled to use Old Glory as a diaper is the Junior Senator from the Great State of Louisiana.
And maybe a love-struck member of the Astronaut Corps. Whatever.
The good doctor is just pissed Palin refuses to follow Bachmann’s lead and attend one of his seminars.
I don’t know much about the Fed, but you had me at “getting rid of drug laws,” dear sir!
Ron Paul was the doctor who delivered Trig?!
Sully’s gonna totally shit his twitter when he returns from vacation and here’s out about this!
Ron Paul is such a serial complainer, just sayin’. Also. (wink)
Come on Dr. Paul. If you are a rich, elitist American, you don’t have to fly across country to fake the birth of your daughter’s special needs baby. You just give birth in Africa and have the grandparents fake everything in which ever state you want your fake baby to be born in. That’s how elitist do it!
Wow — a Palin vs. Paul feud, especially among their supporters, will be an epic confrontation in the annals of stupidity. This must be what Matthew Arnold meant when he spoke of ignorant armies clashing by night.
Is that Trig in the flag?
The freepers will have theirselves a time sorting this shit out.
– Paul dismisses her supporters as “more establishment, conventional Country-Club type of Republicans.” –
If a meth lab can be considered a country club, I suppose he’s right.
SayItWithWookies: So long as they keep the guns and the blimps pointed at each other or themselves, and not at me, then let there be such a battle royale (with cheese).
“Don’t you drop that H-Bomb on me…”
Crank Tango: That’s the deal with Paul - a few good ideas wrapped around a nutty reset-the-world-economy-to-year-zero center.
Looks like someone just lost the Klan vote. Which is, like, 40 percent of the entire pool he has to dip into. Dumbass.
Paul’s attack on Palin may be dumb, but I’m liking his list of issues.
Yeahbut.. He doesn’t specify which country.
Is this “Kountry Klub” one where they wear white hoods and ride through the night on horseback burning crosses on Negro families’ lawns? If so, I’m pretty sure that vote is split evenly between Palin & Paul.
That is one super creepy image of el loco medico. What a horrible nightmare to be in labor, sweaty & screaming, then you look up and ol’ doctor Ron is flexing his long, bony fingers, staring at you with that face that never smiles.
What you don’t know is that the Palin rallies were actually $2500 a head fundraisers. Three course meal, wine sampler and pitchfork-white hood combo included in price.
Compared to Paultards, Team Sarah types ARE country-club denziens, much in the same way that Larry the Cable Guy makes Jeff Foxworthy look classy.
I’ve always said Palin’s supporters were the golf/polo/tennis set.
Just listening to them speak was a dead giveaway.
If they came to my house I’d break out the Royal Doulton china for tea.
They strike me as sophisticated.
Is Dr. Paul some kind of fiddler crab? That’s a large (and curiously dusky) sinister paw he’s sporting there.
Tommmcatt: At this point, Team Sarah (Meg Stapleton, a couple rabid sled dogs, Todd’s goatee) makes Paultardia look somewhat reasonable by comparison. SOMEwhat.
AbstinenceOnly Ed:
In the same way that Michelle Bachmann makes Michelle Malkin look intelligent, perhaps.
I’m pretty sure he was misquoted…it wasn’t “Country Club” it was “Seal Club.”
How about those people in Philly who kicked the African-American kids out of their pool? Palin or Paul? I say Palin. The Paultard are Interweb-dependent. Palin people only use ‘puters to order from Land’s End.
Tommmcatt: Palin supporters make Paul supporters look well-read and intellectual.
Paul supporters make Palin supporters look sexually well-adjusted.
This is fun!
he misspelled “cuntry club.” guess maybe he’s never seen one.
Extemporanus: Dammit. That’s “hears”, not “here’s”.
The mere idea of Paul-on-Palin Tardageddon adversely effected mine grammers.
“I wonder whether she’s energizing the 15-20 year olds,” Paul asks The Politico.
That sounds like a David Letterman rape joke to me, DR. RON PAUL! Starbursts? Also.
SmutBoffin: Palin supporters make Paul supporters look so fat that when they sit around the house, they sit AROUND the house.
Sarah Palin’s response when told Ron Paul slammed her will be a dismissive “who?”, not in the sarcastic way of him being a cult but irrelevant figure, but in the sense that she doesn’t know anyone who serves in the House of Representatives.
Jukesgrrl: IT WAS NOT in PHILLY! It was Huntington Valley- it may not mean much to you -and Philly has plenty of racists- but the pool incident was outside of Philly. Philly racist incidents do not involve swim clubs- baseball bats/the N word/guns-yes- but not a country club.
Paultards aren’t really poorer than Palin’s electric-scooter-driving supporters, but are terminally insecure and feel inferior to literally every single person they encounter in life.
Extemporanus: Paul-on-Palin Tardageddon
Thanks for that!!
Extemporanus: Tardageddon!!! Well said.
Ron Paul was a lot more fun when he called himself Wavy Gravy.
I think the Good Reverend Doctor is spot on. I think her *supporters*, the people who are bankrolling her, are in fact the country club nuke-a-gay-whale-for-christ crowd. In IL, we call them “Wheaton Republicans”. Lots of money, and a love for pissing off “teh hippiez”. They’re the ones who brought in Alan Keyes back in the day.
It’s her FANS that are mouth-breathing mullet-pounding idiots. Unfortunately, their idjit ways don’t pay for the shopping sprees…
Damn I love Paul.
He just needs to keep himself in the lime light until 2012. Let’s just hope the country is ready for him then.
Sounds like we need a Fun Kosmo Kwiz to help people decide: “Which right-wing personality cult should I join?”
1. You want a snack. Do you go for: a) moose jerky b) Doritos found under couch cushions
2. Abstinence before marriage: a) Rocks! (Anal doesn’t count, right?) b) Sucks! (Princess Leia, take me away from all this!)
3. I accept government funding: a) with feigned reluctance, but enormous relief the state Amex won’t be cut up next time I go to Neiman Marcus b) with open contempt, but happy it brings closer the collapse of fiat currency
4. Jon Galt is: a) my inspiration for living a radically free, self-directed life. (Mom, we’re out of Coke again!) b) um, the parts guy at Snowmachine World?
laverneandsurely: When is America not ready for as cock-sure, smug protectionist and racist asshole?
Honestly, it’s always pissed me off how the country club republicans trick people into supporting their ‘real American’ candidates. There’s a hell of a lot more elitism in Republican policy than in left-wing ideology, yet you always hear about the ‘liberal elites.’ That’s how you get people to vote against their own interests, and that’s how you whip these folks in to a birther-y froth. I think it’s awesome that Ron Paul is attacking her right where it hurts — the meme that she’s some kind of average woman (in the same way that GWB was an average Texan). The personal stories are completely fake, and it’s about time someone called it out.
Sorry for the lack of snark, but I am just really glad about this.
hobospacejunkie: I’ll take his stiff, empty visage over those creepy asymmetrical paws any day. That painting makes The Randfather look like a fifth-generation Innsmouth dweller.
Ron Paul has it all over Sarah Palin, c’mon. He went to doctory school, completed it, doctored people, landed cushy government job, managed to hit ‘no’ button 10,000 times and hasn’t quit yet. Snow-for-brains makes him look like Thomas Jefferson.
I want some new political parties out of all this hubbub. Birthers+Palin+Neo-Nazis= Original Freedomists; Ron Paul+Michelle Bachmann+Neo-Nazis= Reloveutionary Party. Then the Republicans could eat a dick and I’d have healthcare.
Jukesgrrl: Really? Lands end? More like Cabelas and use the official Cabelas credit cart, to get those loyalty reward points, progressing towards kerosene heated underwear. A.L.S.O.
Loon fight! I can’t wait to hear what unintelligible nonsense spews from Palin’s piehole in response. Also.
“What you don’t know is that the Palin rallies were actually $2500 a head fundraisers. Three course meal, wine sampler and pitchfork-white hood combo included in price.”
Well, the KKK was at some point run and promoted by entrepreneurs who sold them their “exclusively pure” sheets and accessories. Not too far off politically from Amway, I guess.
Tardageddon. The Palinistas would have Jebus and special needs kids. The Paultards would have the virtual 10th level weapons and… well… fur.
It’s just a ruse while they perfect the technology to merge into a single monstrous Voltron of idiocy … beware the rise of Sahron Paulin!!1!!1!
SmutBoffin: Differnce: Palin supporters live in a doudle-wide about to repo’d by the sheriff because of overdue ComCast and Tivo bills and Paultards live in the spider-infested crawl space above their parents’ garage, where even Cambridge police fear to enter, reports of tumultous behavior or not.
By the bye, why are all of these people so friggin’ lilly white?
lulzmonger: Bingo. Paultards, they love the irony, so this is entirely plausible.
Remember the Paultard commune, Paulville? Also a lily white “country” club.
And the “good doctor” and snowbilly are both fundy-dominionists.
Sarah sees Russia from her window. Ron sees Mexico. They are both guarding the borders.
She did not total destroy her state like so many others did during the same time period: CA MI AL(Jefferson Co.) NY(maybe, we shall see). She quit before screwing everything up (Unlike Phony Tony Blair). She was also kind of good looking. Why can’t we remember her like she was that women that ran the department down the hall that, once in a while, we fantasied about having sex with.
Follow-on questions: Does this clash of Paulistas and the Palinites mean the End of Times?
If so, can I still get health insurance?
Just asking.
Palin’s pals are at the country club all right. Bussing tables and throwing half-eaten prime rib in the dumpster. Somebody hand me a Brillo pad.
Somebody’s been self-medicating again.
the lady MS. Sheila Dixon: Suds McKenzie: Stay tuned.
Tardegeddon desecrations could very well be in the works…
Paul Tardy: “She quit before screwing everything up.” That’s like saying she walked out the door before all of the dominoes had fallen.
Palin remind me of lead character in the film, “To Die For”.
From Wikipedia:
“To Die For”
Suzanne Stone (Nicole Kidman) is a young, beautiful, and ruthless woman who dreams of being a world famous news anchor despite her rather limited intellect and talent.
****
For Palin supporters, a country club is an axe handle.
NYNYNY: “I want some new political parties out of all this hubbub.” Ron Paul already brings the white supremacist black helicopter crowd with him.
And Palin doesn’t talk about gold or the Freemasons so she’s just like Nelson Rockefellar.
Yes, damn those elitists Palinista’s and their fancy F-150s, and their snazzy Levi 501s, and their upscale in-door plumbing, and their sumptuous pork steak dinners, and quality colored Magnavox TV’s…really, I could go on.
S.Luggo: Pamela Smart.. Perhaps Levi was supposed to kill the ‘First Dude’, but instead shot ‘Tard Dude’ sperm into Sarehla.
Palin energizes 15-20 year old men, to masturbate.
LoweredPeninsula: I think you may be onto something there. Paul supporters = living off the grid, no indoor plumbing BY CHOICE.
Jukesgrrl: Palin people only use ‘puters to order from Land’s End.
Palin supporters ordering from Land’s End — make that Cabela’s insted.
Dr. Ron’s “county club” comment was misunderstood. He means Palin supporters carry ax handles when going to their Klavern meetings.
Ah, another Duel of Twits.
Ron Paul should know better, given that Anchorage is Houston’s furthest north suburb. The closest thing we had to a country club in Anchorage when I was a kid was the mini golf course at the Carrs Supermarket on Debarr, next to Shakey’s. The dude set it up for the summer, which is like six weeks. Of course, there was the Russian Jack golf course, but it had astroturf greens which was fun if your shot made the green, bounced 50 feet in the air, and then got eaten by a moose. The only golf courses were at the military bases, the tennis courts were at the high schools, and there were no outdoor pools, duh. (There’s now a newish golf course near the zoo, which would be cool if a polar bear got loose.)
Now the Petroleum Club, on the other hand, were Ron’s kind of people.
Simple Sarah grinning does not signal acceptance, nor any other cognitive condition. It’s like presuming assent from Barby
But I’m wondering if Dr Paul is truly lost. The Repugnants since 1964 have been one part plutocrat to nine pieces of trailer trash. It’s just a change in the demographics which require those with IQ above a common fern in that party to attempt to extricate themselves from the sinking ship of fools. In the future, more Americans will look like Jessica Alba than Pat Buchanan, and there are ever fewer of us who think that’s a loss.
