Discussion Thread from the Ron Paul War Room

HANGING WITH THE RON PAUL GUYS
I attended a local formal meeting of the Ron Paul group here last night. I wanted to see what went on. I was struck at how normal they were.Basically just old time Republicans, blue collar Democrats, fed up with the direction the party is going. It was very similar to a standard county Republican meeting, agenda the whole bit.
Naturally the meeting focused on our California primary in a couple of weeks and how to get out information, change voters minds…..ads in newspapers, the usual stuff. Very well run and organized…..untilIn walks the stoners from the local Humboldt State College, a Berkeley wanna-be little college of no great distinction, who proceeded to try and take over the meeting calling Republicans who haven’t switched over to Ron Paul NAZIS because they didn’t want to repeal all the drug laws and empty the prisons.
Suggesting that the group stress how great a quality of pot is grown here may play well down on the quad trying to pick up chicks, but I suggested that using it as an advertising method to attract Republican voters wasn’t exactly a good idea. Did I mention they were with NORMAL? Nuff said.Well, being who I am I stood up and pretty much shamed them out of the room and was fairly disappointed they didn’t have the guts to meet me outside after the meeting to discuss it further.
Here is the problem with the RP groups. My first hand observation is leftist morons are glomming onto him to further whacky left wing causes in the hopes they can split off a few Republican votes and throw the election to the Dems….who will empty the prisons.
For this reason, until the RP organization throws these bums out, the organization is dead as a serious movement. When some members of their groups look at Republicans as NAZIS, the leadership has to throw them out.. Or doesn’t hate speech the left loves to tout so much apply to liberals?
Republicans are a lot of things, but they don’t gas people and make wallets out of their skin. I have the greatest respect for the good Republicans who are trying to make a difference and stand up for traditional Republican values, but you are guilty by association. To allow idiots to force their way onto your meeting agenda, it just looks high school. Government high school at that.
My advise to the Constitution Party, you have a golden opportunity…don’t blow it.

Best thing I have seen since Earnie Heminway was caught Humping Eudora Welty at a Southern Writers convention.
Far better than Faulkner and his dirty old Okies in California.
You have the curse of The “Golden Word”…may they come more often than Noonie.
