I'm posting this to try and show libertarians why I have been so against Ron Paul. Mainly, he's a crotchety, narrow-minded old fart whose time has passed him by. And this particular story couldn't be more enlightenng of that reality.
Sadly, included within this story is this blog post comment by a supporter of his;
Quote:
Back in 2007 we put our lives on hold for you, Ron, and we invested close to 10,000 hours of tears, sweat and hard work into this site at great personal sacrifice. We helped raise millions of dollars for you, we spread your message of liberty as far and wide as we possibly could, and we went out of our way to defend you against the unjustified attacks by your opponents. Now that your campaigns are over and you no longer need us, you want to take it all away – and send us off to a UN tribunal?
That’s not cool! We want our old pre-retirement Ron Paul back!
I really fail to understand why his supporters simply don't abandon him for the junior version of Rand Paul. At least he has a bit more realistic view of the world.
I was through the convention. But he was running on the Republican ticket.
I did vote Libertarian though and started looking at those candidates when Paul lost.
Interesting. They could toss anything out on that site and it would appear to be from Paul. I remember back in the day the squatters used to buy up every domain name they could think of and try and blackmail companies to pay em for it. Maybe if they would donate the money he would pay em the 250K. lol
Do a search before you post. This has been discussed and fully explained.
The guys at Ronpaul.com tried to sell the him the domain for 800K only after pocketing hundreds of thousands in campaign funds by selling merchandise that customers thought were going towards the campaign. Look at the comments on the website in question and you'll see who supporters actually feel screwed over by.

You're telling me you wouldn't be pissed if someone pocketed the cash you needed to run for office and then blackmail you?
