I like how a book club is one of the ideas. That's cute.

You don't know what the fuck you're talking about, Ryan. The Paulbearers know some things that you obviously don't, because they are very close to taking over the GOP in quite a few Legislative Districts and counties in this state, including King and Pierce Counties.

How do I know this? I won't tell you. Pretend that you're a reporter and do some digging.

Here's a hint: It has something to do with the Top Two primary.

@4,
Really, you've decided on "Paulbearers?" Is that little piece of world play an homage to the wrestler, or to the people who carry the coffin? Because I think either would be pretty swell.

@4,
Why are you addressing yourself and what's "world play"? As far as the "content" of your writing, you seem to have a habit of attacking the safest, easiest targets such as third party candidates without doing much actual reporting on anything of substance.

You're clearly aspiring to be a government/corporate lapdog for self-styled hipsters which is fine if you're a blogger for Fox news. Most Stranger readers detest Fox news so it'd be nice if you educated yourself a little more about aspects of politics that actually affect us, such as the influence of corrupt policy and people in power on issues such as the war, the economy, healthcare, education, mass media, and the environment?

Why are you talking bullshit about the Rothschilds? This transparent attempt to paint Ron Paul as an anti-semite is moronic and intellectually dishonest. One of Ron Paul's greatest inspirations is Milton Friedman, who's himself jewish. Ryan, you should simply shut up.

@ 6, seriously? If you are ever forced to listen to the GCN republic radio you'd hear it all the time. Alex Jones (the craziest and most terrifying creep/asshole to have a radio show) talks about three things. The government being evil and trying to control our minds, how much he loves Ron Paul and how the Rothschilds are the devil. Paul has been on the show and agreed to ALL these points many many many times over.

Rwr,
Ron Paul wants to replace paper money with a gold standard. This is the only topic he has in respect to banking. He has no problem with teh jews running the American banking system. If he was not confrontational towards Alex Jones, it was probably because he was grateful for being invited for once to a radio show. I myself cannot verify or falsify this, because here in Germany it is not possible to listen to GCN republic radio.

@7,
I admittedly am not an expert on rich and powerful families but my hunch would be they do more harm than good to the planet overrall. Why such defensiveness against those who speak out against the government and elites like the Rothchilds?

Either you're ignorant, brainwashed, an apologist or all or some combination of the above. I think Alex Jones does go over the top on occasion but he has rational and factual critiques of certain police-state tendencies of the government.
For a taste of a truly terrifying creep/asshole, check out Michael Reagan or the similarly hateful propagandists that flood the airwaves (ie. Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage etc...)
