Now a third Paul — Robert, a doctor who runs a family medical practice in Benbrook and lives in Fort Worth — is mulling a congressional bid of his own.
After campaigning for his father, most notably giving speeches during the elder Paul’s 2008 presidential bid, Robert Paul is considering whether to jump into the race to replace Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison when her term expires in January 2013.
A doctor, huh? What board certified him? The American Medical Board of Robert Paul’s Nieces and Nephews? [Fort Worth Star-Telegram]

Does Ron Paul have a third son, named Curly-Joe?
How come this mixed-up RonPaulMoran (no government intervention in anything ever, except women's wombs) didn't name all of his kids "Ron Paul," a la George Foreman?
Does Ron Paul have a third son, named Curly-Joe?
Or maybe a fat one, named 'Hoss'?
Alas, no. But he does have a fifth son named Zeppo.
Shemp Paul
I've mentioned this before: did you know that Shemp Howard is a relative by marriage of Barney Frank?
Paul Paul
They must not have been very good doctors.
They want that free senatorial healthcare.
And the barney franking privileges.
well who the hell would go to an admittedly greedy in-it-for-himself/non-compassionate Randroid Libertarian doctor?
Robert? I'm not buying it. His real name is Fountainhead Invisible Hand Paul, right?
Exactly. What's his middle name…….WAyne?
it would be an appropriate name for a libertarian: want some cheese with your WAyne?
That's the virginal daughter, actually. And she recently became engaged to a Virginia blue-blood named Chesterton Up Skirt Finger Bang, which was really rather inevitable when you put a Fountainhead Invisible Hand and Up Skirt Finger Bang together.
Ron, Rand and Rob Paul – I'm beginning to notice a naming pattern here, sort of like the male Palins with Tr-.
"T"
Or the Duggars.
Or like the femalin's with their flappy whore-holes?
Larry, Darryl, and Darryl.
Then there's Ru, the one they don't talk about.
Please tell me this is another damned "Atlas Shrugged" publicity stunt.
It'll be fun to laugh at the movie flopping. And it's just part one of a trilogy.
Ron Paul is a big fan of Ayn Rand
"Atlas Shrugged…1,000 pages of ideological fabulism” – William F. Buckley
One of the v. few times I'm with Buckley
QED Paul is an ideological fabulist (at best)
And also an ideological fapulist (at best, too)
In fact ha ha:

15 out of 16 "rotten" reviews so far; and the one good one? From Murdoch's NY Post. It has a very high user rating though, no doubt from Randroids who haven't seen the thing all giving five starts.
and even if it sucks as a movie like the trailer indicates they'll still like it. then there's this douche: http://www.youtube.com/user/sgapplebee
Kind of like Scientologists being bused in to see that Battlefield Earth movie – if you're in the cult, you have to like it.
I guess the producers and financiers of this movie will be getting the finger from the Invisible Hand of the Market.
Atlas actually held up the sky if i remember correctly. Atlas had Uranus on his shoulders. not the Earth.
"Fort Worth"
Is it like Fort Knox, but instead of gold bars it's filled with self-importance bricks and handwritten "I really am a real medicine doctor-certificates?"
Is Ft Worthless somewhere nearby?
Short for "For What it's Worth"
Serious snark for a minute. How can you be a doctor and be opposed to medicare/medicaid? And how can you be a libertarian and opposed to abortion?
Rich Jesus-libertarians get to make their own rules.
Ah yes of course. I forgot about the "Hypocritical Asshole" factor.
Many of them even have M.D. after their name…
In their case, it stands for Mindless Douchebag.
Also, how can you be a Paul and be taken seriously.
These are Libertardians. Different thing entirely.
I vote NO.
Thank you. (sorry, you'd get it if you knew my real name. As it is, this falls flat, and would probably be deleted if this were a sober moment)
I don't get it, but I'm intrigued.
Eh — it's just my initials. Which upsets some people, when I put NO on legal docs. they think I'm refusing to sign.
Now I get it , and I'm amused.
Next time sign it NO NO – and see what happens. ha!
Damn you, downfisting troll! Do you know how hard it was to come up with snark for this story? Dumb fat fuck!
i think the troll is a total teabagger nouveau-Randroid. he goes nuts on any post involving the Pauls or comments about Rand.
and probably like yesterday's troll who actually commented, he's a "libertarian" and thinks he's not a right winger. libertarians are soooo not right wing fascists. nope. no way, man.
Ooh, we have more than one. I've done my part.
Probably just some kind of computer program.
"A doctor, huh? What board certified him?"
he was certified in the Game of LIFE.
Paul Caucus meeting will be called to order when the Invisible Hand raps the Invisible Gavel.
Rand, Ron, Robert and Ryan?
Ro-bear Berbil.
Broun, also.
Wake me when RuPaul gets on the ballot.
♪♫ I said, "Doctor, Doctor, Mr. M.D., . . .
Now can you tell me what's ailin' me?"
He said, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yes, indeed, all you really need . . .
Is a solid gold standard, blimps, and savant followers ♫♪
Idiot savant followers.
Bedtime in the Paul household, circa 1975:
Ron: "Rand! Hank! Francisco! John Galt Paul! Y'all get to bed now, d'ye hear?"
Unison: "Don't you oppress me!"
Do you know what the group of people including a young Greenspan who surrounded Rand were called?
The collective. Lol.
The next to run will Rita
This is good news for Obama's Hot Mic during campaign season.
"libertarians are just republicans who smoke pot." –Bob Black
Libertarians are republicans with rabies. Mention "duty" and watch them foam at the mouth.
Raul Paul?
Upfists for everyone!
Paul McCartney
(Ron) Paul is dead?
The R. Pauls truly are the Fools on the Hill.
Apparently jism wiped on a curtain is eligible to become a doctor in Texas.
Hamburger University gives out medical degrees now?
Guess it is my turn.
You know who else was a doctor?
Victor Von Doom?
François Duvalier?
John Henry Holliday?
Theodor Geisel?
Zhivago?
Dre?
J?
Who?
Detroit?
Johnny Fever?
Dr. Evil?
Dr Mengele
Me. But I'm not the kind of doctor, does anybody any good.
Hannibal Lecter?
Alright already, which one is the One Paul to Rule Them Aul?
I'm sure Mama Paul rules them all with a rod of iron.
They scatter pall mall before the rod of her wrath.
RuPaul?
In a related question, whatever happened to the Paul Rule of Two?
Needz moar blimp.
Obstetrician-gynecologist-politician with a libertarian bent? a winning proposition!
obgyn and a libertarian? sounds contradictory in an intrusive way.
i much prefer Buckaroo Banzai: nuclear physicist-brain surgeon-rock star-race car driver.
Eugenics is such a double-edged sword. Sometimes it produces a bare-chested Ricardo Montalban, and sometimes it produces a clan of Pauls .
Ru Paul?
I find it hard to believe that anyone would have the poor taste to fuck Ron Paul more than once.
Maybe they're triplets
Randall Flagg?
Let me be the first to suggest Ron Paul's youngest son Trig for President in 2048.
He can join his brother and the Quayle boy at the Senate's Kiddie Table for lunch. Helmets, plastic utensils and goggles all around.
what do they think? they are the kennedy's of the chik-fil-a set?
Ron, Rob, and Rand and all doctors, eh? You can't make this shit up.
Is it just me, or isn't a little creepy to give your kids overtly political names ("rob paul to pay peter"). Why are Repubs so creepy with their kids?
Pauly Shore?
Three Pauls in Congress–a paltry sum. Multiplied by three, zero still equals zero.
Palindrome. Paulluap.
Best I could do. It's late.
Caution! Downfister troll about…
What else is new?
I haven't used "NO NO", but I do occasionally get all exclamatory and use "NO!". Had I thought about it, I would have married a woman with the initials YES. Unfortunately, Yasmine Bleeth is the only Y woman I know (if drooling over her on Nash Bridges counts as knowing someone), and I don't think I could convince her to 1) change her name to Yasmine Erlina Sexypants and 2) marry me.
Yasmine Erlina Sexypants sounds like a name Britney Spears would pick for a daughter. lol
Alas my sexual fantasy man has knocked up a bimbo named Kimbo, who is the daughter of Rod Stewart. She could possibly name her child something from a Mod Rod song.
