<description>Ron Paul supporters chase Sean Hannity down a street in New Hampshire. Listen as the Paul supporter behind the camera wonders aloud about the likelihood of arrest. They&apos;ve got a sense of humor about it... but I was chilled....</description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Can you feel it?  It’s been building for awhile.  America is finally starting to wake up, and yet there is Mr. Oboma, trying to stall it, to buy the elite’s a little more time.  Mr. reach across the aisle to Hanity’s buddies in the senate.  The republican revolution is over, but their polices can live on with somebody with the charisma of Oboma as president.  I have been stumping for Edwards on slog, but  a Ron Paul presidency would be the best for this country, it would do the most damage to Hannity and his shrinking, monied, minions.  </p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Fnarf, you pansy, that was not fascism.  Hannity is fascist.  Our Occupation of Iraq is fascist.   Mob’s arise for a lot of different reason’s, one of them being taxation with out representation.  Our war in Iraq, and religious support of Israel, is sinking this country.  The fucking boat is sinking, wake the fuck up already.  If Oboma is elected, our middle east policy is not going to change.  I was always disgusted with Oboma’s carrot and the stick analogy when it came to Iran.   So people in the middle east are dumb donkies we can lead along with a carrot?  To allude to another post on Slog, Oboma is going to be white enough when it  comes to Israel.   </p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>This made me proud to be an American again.  I love seeing one of the preeminent mouthpieces for the neo-con corporate propaganda machine being hounded by the People - even the wacky people. God bless that nutty Ron Paul and all his wacky followers.  You won't see those passive-aggressive democrats taking on the Fox Machine.  I'll take growing a pair over turning the other cheek any day.</p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by RainMan</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Back in the late 80's and 90's when I lived in the Boston area I used to drive up to Nashua and Manchester the Saturday before the New Hampshire primary to see the action up close.  Mostly I'd stop by the various candidates' headquarters to pick up free campaign buttons, even from the Republicans (I can keep a straight face for a few minutes).  I remember the roaming bands of candidate supporters, mostly college guys of the frat boy/jock variety, wandering the streets carrying signs and flags. I kept wondering if I would witness some kind of clash like in the Warriors if two of these rival groups met.  It was rather unsettling and exciting at the same time.  Never saw them go after a reporter, however, not even the right wing nutjobs from the Union-Leader.   </p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by Plus Sean Hannity Makes Barry Champlain Look Like Thom Hartmann</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I'll admit, I agree there is something a bit chilling about this. Forgive me if I'm looking for perspective here though.</p>

<p>Americans are pretty pissed.</p>

<p>These guys are characterized as a fascist mob why? For not remaining civil and obedient in a gov't sanctioned protest zone?</p>

<p>Yes, there's something chilling. We don't like seeing even the least likeable among us treated like that and it chills us.</p>

<p>These are just some righteously pissed Americans zealously exercising their diminishing right to free speach. It's low, it's feels like it's on the brink of going too far. Still, my admiration of that crowd outways my spite for their bullying. Group identity has  so much potential for insiting shitstorms but these folks-regardless of how poor an alternative to business as usual Ron Paul may be-are at least moved to give a shit and that's not bad news to me. It's a start.</p>]]></description>

<p>Wow--not only did Obama sweep but this R-leaning district went strongly Democratic, 10-7.</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p>For the last time, harassing people and yelling like a loon are not great examples of free speech.  </p>

<p>Paultards managed to gather a few dozen people, waste countless hours of their time and make a funny youtube video.  Giving frat boys alcohol accomplishes pretty much the same thing.   </p>

<p>Yah yah I get it, your in college and feel like the US is police state/hate the government/think vaccines are poison/are a 911 truther/or whatever.  blah blah blah.  No one cares, really we don't.  At best your amusing and at worst mildly annoying. </p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Sophie, Dan already jumped on this. There's nothing to it. There's no way those dimwits can afford even 1/10 of 1% of MS. </p>

<p>Just some Christian hucksters looking to load up on some blue-chips, courtesy of their moronic followers. The P-I dutifully reports on it, because that's what they do. </p>

<p>But it would be fun to see another report on it. Where's the Prayer Warrior been?</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>They were <a href="http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/01/07/556622.aspx" rel="nofollow">harassing Bill Clinton</a> too.</p>

<p>I can see one of these morons getting himself shot by the Secret Service.  Which would get sympathy for their cause.  Which will cause them to say it was a conspiracy to kill one of them, to get sympathy for them, to try to disprove the conspiracy against them.  See the government will 'accidentally' create a martyr to make it look like they're not trying to suppress them.</p>

<p>In fact, are these idiots real Ron Paul supporters at all?  Isn't it more rational to think that they are government agents planted to make the sheeple laugh at Ron Paul?  In.  Fact.</p>

<p>See?  See?  Are you so blind that you can't see what it all means?</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>A month ago, Sophie. Coverage of the MS stockholders meeting. "Hutch" made an ass of himself, and the Microsoft execs gave him the polite brush-off. </p>

<p>The story in the P-I is basically a recap of what he said he was going to do at that time. But as the P-I itself points out, there's not much he can really do. It's all a cheap publicity stunt, and a way to create a fund for fundies. He pretty much says as much himself. </p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>@41 right because oh god the horror, tea in the mother fucking river.  </p>

<p>To be honest, the whines of privileged Americans about imaginary persecution just seems, well silly.  I'm pretty convinced the only people who think that things in this country are remotely bad haven't left it.  </p>

<p>Its one thing to talk about problems and try to fix them, its another to go off half cocked over nonsense like say the pualtards were doing today on Digg about the census. Oh God a survay, I mean can't you see how thats just like HITLER. </p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Dan, related to your Mitt Romney phone bank... I received a call last night at 11:30pm and it sounded like a recording of a political speech. Turns out that a lot of others have too. Just do a Google search for 616-980-2604.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Okay, guys, no. This is not facism. This is an angry mob. In fascism, the angry mob is carefully guided, armed, and trained by the military/police.</p>

<p>However, this mob's actions and their video do play into the hands of jackbooted fascists like Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>@52: Revolution? Yeah, right. When the camera pulls away, we see that the Paultard mob is a bunch of white frat boy types. After their "riot," they all slapped each other five and had a few $15 pitchers at the Fox Sports Bar. Well, come to think of it, maybe they went to the Ram.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Read my post #49--thats the problem, that this sort of "anti-social" behavior, with the intent to scare and intimidate people, can lead to crackdowns. Protest all you want, make your statements, parades, etc. But chasing people down the street screaming at them--powerful people, even if they are incredibly politically-wrong-headed powerful people--will only lead to fascism, with the blessings of the masses who themselves don't wish to be chased and screamed at. If the target of the mob, instead of that asshole Hannity, had been Barney Frank or Gloria Steinem or some other person you personally approved of, would you still be snickering or would the words "hate crime" already be flying around the Slog?</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>I don't like Sean Hannity or Fox News, but this mob acted like a bunch of brownshirts. Given the large number of white power racists who support Paul, it's quite possible that at least some of them were actually self-described Nazis. And #48, if Ron Paul was elected--luckily, a remote possibility at best--these people would gladly make themselves the enforcers of his regime.</p>

<p>Yeah, that's chilling. </p>]]></description>
