Neo-Nazi Sites Love Ron Paul

Politics • Views: 4,852

The neo-Nazi sites are all lathered up about Ron Paul winning the CPAC straw poll.

And they’re not happy about LGF’s take on it. Not at all. Posted by one of the troglodytes at Stormfront today:

Re: Ron Paul Wins CPAC Poll

There is a Jewish Supremacist hate site called “Little Green Footballs” and this kind of thing drives them crazy, because they PRETEND to be conservatives and when a real conservative and all-American man like Dr. Ron Paul wins so many conservative polls, they go crazy with whining.

Thesw LGF Jews are the most unpatriotic Israeli-first traitors the United States sees in the blogosphere. They are vile and disgusting rats. “Charles Johnson” is the shabbat goy that fronts this obvious Zionist hate site, and even if this “Charles Johnson” moron claims to be Christian, he could care less about Christianity in the Holy Land, which is getting wiped out by Zionists, and it fared far better under the Arabs before the Khazar (Ashkenazi) fakes came to the Middle East.

Nazis. To be hated by those scum is a mark of honor. I'm proud that LGF retains a robust Jewish presence as I am equally glad that Chicagoland does as well. Those fascists want a world that is grim, brutal and monotone. I prefer a world with different colors where people are treated decently.

So why do all the anti-Semites support RP anyway? Is it just because he happens to oppose all foreign and military aide to Israel? (along with every other country)

3 Jetpilot1101  Sun, Feb 21, 2010 6:52:16pm

I'm not a Jew but I married one and it was the best decision I've ever made in my life. These neo-Nazi has-been pricks can go have carnal relations with themselves. Calling them a bunch of douchebags is an insult to douchebags.

That's part of it but it goes much deeper. Paul's vendetta against the Federal Reserve is not just an economic policy. It's fighting back against the Jewish bankers who secretly run things. Also the Paulians held a speech as CPAC this year discussing what an evil tyrant Lincoln was. People who didn't want to end slavery love that kind of stuff.

This is just so weird. A year ago, the only evidence of Ron Paul I saw was a bunch of pizza-faced Cheech and Chong wannabes, climbing up and down billboards and defacing telephone poles by spraying ' Ron Paul! / Join the RP Revolution '.

re: #7 Conservative Moonbat

[Link: en.wikipedia.org...]

A Shabbat goy, Shabbos goy or Shabbes goy (Yiddish: שבת גוי, shabbos goy Modern Hebrew: גוי של שבת goy shel shabat) is an individual who regularly assists a Jewish individual or organization by performing certain acts on the Biblical Sabbath which are forbidden to Jews within Jewish law. The phrase is a combination of the word "Shabbos" (שבת) meaning the Sabbath, and "Goy", which literally means "a nation" but practically means a "non-Jew"

Elvis Presley was a shabbos goy.

You can’t resolve away climate change (Phil Plait)

The resolution in question is the handiwork of South Dakota state legislature.
Part 2 is an epic of legislative idiocy:

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED [...]
(2) That there are a variety of climatological, meteorological, astrological, thermological, cosmological, and ecological dynamics that can affect world weather phenomena and that the significance and interrelativity of these factors is largely speculative;

Yep, they really said "astrological"
If this kind of science can be further refined, you'll be able to combine the weather forecast with the daily horoscope.

It turns out that "interrelativity" really is a word though an exceedingly obscure one most often used in the context of social rather than physical sciences.

I fear Romney won't have a prayer in the primary because of his faith. Right now they're ginned, up and the Republican party can't afford to lose them. THAT'S why they're allowed at CPAC, because they're worried about a schism and they need to hold on to them.

Nazis like that have often tried to prove they understand Jewish culture in order to justify their charge that Jews are evil. They claim to be experts. Adolf Eichmann was a notable example of this phenomenon.

These Olympics (which I haven't been watching much) remind me of the first games I watched. The 1980 Winter Olympics, and I was ten years old. I watched as much as I could, and this was before cable tv (or before my family had it) and the internet.

I'm pretty sure I tried to stay up to watch the closing ceremonies, which were on pretty late for a ten year old. I was half asleep and I told my mother (who was well known then for making chopped liver and sculpting it into shapes for special occasions), "Mom, you should make chopped liver and shape it into the Olympic rings." Her response was something like, "Okay, you're going to bed!"

I emailed her tonight asking her if she was going to make an Olympic rings chopped liver.

Where's the new Buckley? AARRGH.

I fear Romney won't have a prayer in the primary because of his faith. Right now they're ginned, up and the Republican party can't afford to lose them. THAT'S why they're allowed at CPAC, because they're worried about a schism and they need to hold on to them.

Liberals' attitudes toward WFB ran from disdain to hatred, while he was alive. They should've appreciated him more while he was here.

Quite probably true. The 2006 is from a very specific locale, while the 2007 one was more underground. The more mainstream Tea Parties quite probably surged from these, but weren't connected to them.

OT: Arizona man accused of "honor killing" daughter won't face the death penalty. Why? Because it would look bigoted to do so:

The decision not to seek the death penalty comes after Almaleki's attorney, Billy Little, a public defender, asked a judge to take special precautions to ensure the County Attorney's Office wouldn't wrongly seek the death penalty because Almaleki is a Muslim.

Little requested that the office make public the process it uses to determine whether to seek capital punishment.

"An open process provides some level of assurance that there is no appearance that a Christian is seeking to execute a Muslim for racial, political, religious or cultural beliefs," Little wrote, referring to County Attorney Andrew Thomas' Christian faith.

Laura Reckart, a county prosecutor, responded that Little's concern about the "supposed bias" of the office's death-penalty-review process was "without legitimate factual or legal basis."

She wrote that the state can seek the death penalty for any person convicted of first-degree murder if it can prove the existence of at least one aggravating factor, not because of religion.

However, the debate stopped there. On Tuesday, Reckart filed a motion indicating prosecutors would not seek the death penalty.

Millions of Unemployed Face Years Without Jobs

Even as the American economy shows tentative signs of a rebound, the human toll of the recession continues to mount, with millions of Americans remaining out of work, out of savings and nearing the end of their unemployment benefits.

Economists fear that the nascent recovery will leave more people behind than in past recessions, failing to create jobs in sufficient numbers to absorb the record-setting ranks of the long-term unemployed.

Call them the new poor: people long accustomed to the comforts of middle-class life who are now relying on public assistance for the first time in their lives — potentially for years to come.

Yet the social safety net is already showing severe strains. [...]

The loss of belief in a positive economic future will feed the need to blame someone. The question is... who will be the scapegoat?

Maybe Jones and the JBS are really becoming that popular, and Rush and Drudge are just responding to the buzz. Hopefully, it'll be a "flavor of the month" type flash, and they will sink back into obscurity.

I'm pretty sure it's illegal if the story is bogus or misrepresented.

It is misrepresented in both Drudge headline and the Prison Planet version. The actual article is at Business Insider and while they posted an update neither Drudge or Prison Planet have posted an update. The update reads:

Update: Citibank has now released the following statement by way of explanation: "When Citibank moved to unlimited FDIC coverage in 2009, we had to reclassify many checking accounts to allow for immediate withdrawals in order to ensure all customers qualified for the additional coverage. When we moved back to standard FDIC coverage with most major banks in 2010, Citibank decided to reclassify those accounts back to make them eligible again for promotional incentives. To do so, Federal Reserve Reg D requires these accounts, called NOW accounts, to reserve the right to require a 7-day notice of withdrawal. We recently communicated this technical requirement to our customers. However, we have never exercised this right and have no plans to do so in the future."

As you know, the average human doesn't read beyond the headline and rarely do they go as far as to check for updates.

the stimulus didn't work except for when it did.

from meet the press

GREGORY: what about the stimulus program? do you think it worked?

GOV. PAWLENTY: well, the definition of the stimulus program is we'll take a dollar from you in the private sector, bring it to government, spin it around, take 5% to 20% for overhead and redeploy it in the economy and call it growth. economists call it transfer effects. we need to grow the private economy. the stimulus bill was outsourced to the united states congress. it came back in an incoherent fashion. we could have gotten more bang for the buck for less money if they would have focused on things that would target growing small businesses and jobs. for example, cutting the payroll tax. it was largely a waste of money that's sustaining government at a time we need to shrink government.

GREGORY: do you think it worked?

GOV. PAWLENTY: as measured by the administration's own goals and objectives, no.

GREGORY: what about 12,000 jobs created in your state?

GOV. PAWLENTY: they are mostly government jobs.

GREGORY: you didn't need those?

GOV. PAWLENTY: we appreciate every job, but the idea that government grow it is economy when all they do is extract money from taxpayers, put it back on a political agenda is not growth. that's transferring money.

GREGORY: would the economy have been in worse shape without the stimulus?

GOV. PAWLENTY: well, they said if they didn't pass the stimulus bill unemployment could go as high as 8%. it went to 10%. they promised four million jobs created or saved. you know the math is fuzzy. everybody agrees. they have failed on that objective as well. the economy and government is going to need to focus on growing the private sector. what the stimulus bill mostly did is sustain government.

GREGORY: but you don't disagree with economists including an economist who advised the mccain campaign which you vouched for and could have been on the ticket of, indeed, there is somewhere around two million jobs that have been created by the stimulus. it could have been worse without it.

this hypocrisy is what the republicans are going to have to deal with. they voted against the stimulus. took credit for the jobs and projects and still want to bitch and moan.

U. S. wants workers to invest in annuities
The Obama administration is weighing how the government can encourage workers to turn their savings into guaranteed income streams following a collapse in retiree accounts when the stock market plunged. The U. S. Treasury and Labor departments will ask for public comment as soon as this week on ways to promote the conversion of 401(k) savings and Individual Retirement Accounts into annuities or other steady payment streams, according to Assistant Labor Secretary Phyllis C. Borzi and Deputy Assistant Treasury Secretary Mark Iwry, who are spearheading the effort.

U.S. Labor Department seeks public comments on lifetime income options for retirement plans

Washington – The U.S. Departments of Labor and the Treasury today announced the publication of a request for information (RFI) soliciting public comments to assist the agencies in determining what steps to take to enhance retirement security for workers in employer-sponsored retirement plans through lifetime annuities or other arrangements that provide a stream of income after retiring. The RFI appears in today’s edition of the Federal Register.

“Today’s initiative is particularly important given the shift from defined benefit plans that offer employees lifetime annuities to 401(k) and other defined contribution plans that typically distribute retirement savings in a lump sum payment,” said Phyllis C. Borzi, assistant secretary for the Labor Department’s Employee Benefits Security Administration.

I can see why they like crazy uncle Ron...they're as bat-shit crazy as he is.

You know, I strongly disagree with Ron Paul on many issues but I can't really label him as crazy. Maybe the Nazi wannabes like him because of his "less govt" stance that necessarily includes elimination of foreign aid to countries, including Israel. I don't know, but the man is anything but stupid.

re: #238 Lidane

I think that's why I like the movie so much. It's the perfect revenge fantasy, really.

You just reminded me of one of my favorite true stories of all time:

Kashmir girl fights off militants

"Without saying anything they [the militants] started beating my parents and my uncle. They beat them so badly that my parents fell on the ground. I could not see that and pounced on one of the militants while my brother hit him with an axe," she said.

"I thought I should try the bold act of encountering militants before dying."

Ms Kauser said she grabbed one of the militants by the hair and banged his head against the wall. When he fell down she hit him with an axe, before snatching his rifle.

"I had never touched a rifle before this, let alone fired one. But I had seen heroes firing in films on TV and I tried the same way. Somehow I gathered courage - I fired and fought till dead tired."

Heh. I take your point. My clarification would be the Spencer shares Eichmanns desire to present himself as an expert, but does not share Eichmann's desire to exterminate those he considers "undesirable", preferring deportation instead (though that would a bloody event as well).

Gov't Mule (pronounced Government Mule) is a rock band formed in 1994 as an Allman Brothers Band side project.
...
When the Allman Brothers were not forthcoming with any new material, Haynes and Woody left to concentrate full-time on Gov't Mule in 1997. Dose, their second studio effort, was released in early 1998. They were joined by members of the Allman Brothers, the Black Crowes, and Parliament/Funkadelic for their 1998 New Year's Eve concert.

Agreed. Just as in Iraq, the Afghan war has morphed and changed over the years. Things were quite quiet until Iraq was won and no longer a good front line for the terrorists. The emphasis is now Afghanistan which just so happens to be on a different watch. No fault to Obama, whoever won the election was going to see the battle intensify.

Yeah but why weren't these people captured in 2002? Why have a bunch of nobodies been sitting in Gitmo all these years when these guys were out there running around? It makes it look like Bush/Cheney didn't give a rat's ass about Afghanistan and just wanted to move on to Iraq ASAP.

re: #336 Conservative Moonbat

Yeah but why weren't these people captured in 2002? Why have a bunch of nobodies been sitting in Gitmo all these years when these guys were out there running around? It makes it look like Bush/Cheney didn't give a rat's ass about Afghanistan and just wanted to move on to Iraq ASAP.

Many of them were not important 8 years ago. This has been a long conflict and is in a new stage.

The people in Gitmo are not "nobodies", the unimportant ones have bee released or transferred. Those left are the hard core terrorists.

Again Concur. Moreover, Pakistan did not take the task of uprooting the Taliban seriously until last year. And it was only after the Taliban made a run on Islamabad in violation of a peace deal that Pakistan acted in earnest. These captures were in Pakistan and would not have happened in 2002 regardless. Pakistan could be told how grave the danger was, they had to experience it to believe.

You're right on the Paki coordination aspect but you won't get me to back down on saying that much more could have been done in Afghanistan if it wasn't for the pointless Iraq invasion. We owe the Brits a hell of a lot right now just for holding the line until we could be bothered to fight the people who had something to do with 9/11.

re: #341 Conservative Moonbat

Until the situation in Iraq settled down, Afghanistan seemed relatively stable. We'd already done most what we came to do, so refocusing on Iraq seemed prudent at the time. That was the reading of the situation at the time, and it was not a bad one, given what we thought was true. And after we were in Iraq, it assumed greater importance simply because Iraq is a more important country than Afghanistan.

With OBL in their sights, with the Battle of Tora Bora raging in December 2001, we got sidetracked. Arguably, Bush and Cheney didn't care about Afghanistan and were already pre-occupied with Iraq.

No. We hadn't. We hadn't at all.

What exactly would you have done differently? Especially considering it was pretty quiet until recently? Other than go into Pakistan there was nothing much to do.

As far as Iraq, saying it was "pointless" is way in left field.

346 Olsonist  Sun, Feb 21, 2010 10:44:27pm

Saying Iraq was pointless is being generous.

We should never have gone into Iraq in the first place. Iraq was never more important because Iraq wasn't responsible for the deaths of thousands of US civilians.

It's too late to debate the entire legitimacy of the Iraq War. Raincheck?

Raincheck is agreed to by me. It really is too late for that debate.

Really, how many times does this need to be said before someone who says Ho-hum... this sort of thing has been chewed over so many countless times will wake up and realize we needed to get OBL, period.

Bin Laden was just the symptom, not the disease. He's done very little since Tora Bora, and he's likely dead by now so missing him, while bad, was by no means disastrous.

I'm pretty sure OBL died of kidney failure several years ago. Recovering his body so the cumstains can't make a shrine out of his grave would still be worthwhile.

There's this guy. His name is Osama bin Laden. He orchestrated the 9/11 hijackings. He bankrolled al Qaeda. He is alive now, in retirement, having recovered from his injuries at Tora Bora. Apparently he still has ties with the Taliban.

And you are saying OBL's the symptom, not the disease.

356 Dark_Falcon  Sun, Feb 21, 2010 11:12:00pm

re: #355 Olsonist

Bin Laden is dead. And the intolerant Wahabbi strain of Islam is the thing that breeds Al Qaeda. Think of AQ and its terrorists as mosquitoes rising from the fever swamp. Land-line is Islam is the fever swamp. Make other avenues more attractive than political Islam and AQ will wither.

I've started fading fast and must go to bed. Goodnight, all.

357 Olsonist  Sun, Feb 21, 2010 11:14:24pm

If the intolerant Wahabbi strain of Islam is the problem, we should have invaded Saudi Arabia.

It has. But it does sort of put the Republican credibility with regard to national security in question, yes? Also, that whole Dick Cheney versus Colin Powell brou-haha. Who's more credible? The partisan or the general?

DF - there is no reason to suppose that Bin Laden is dead. This is just wishful thinking supported by baseless rumours (and daft conspiracy theories regarding the faking of video and audio tapes):

It shocks me that Stormfront even exists. I wonder if Ron Paul has ever denounced this group and clearly rejected the support he receives from associates of it. If not, someone who is in a position to require him to answer (like the people in his district) should ask him why.

Count me in as part of the conspiracy, if those people ever found out that Jews really controlled the world, we'd have to zap them with our circumcise-laser! Read the Red Tent, on the third day, we'd slaughter them all!
