Ron Paul Krugman
Tuesday, May 1st, 2012Hey, did you know that Ron Paul is having a money bomb on April 15? Btw, Ron Paul money bomb on the 15th of April. Ron Paul, money bomb, April 15
Monday, April 9th, 2012This is an e-mail one of your editors received from the Ron Paul campaign. I think there will be a money bomb on April 15th, but it’s hard to tell from the language of the e-mail–though maybe the P.S. is trying to say something. It’s interesting to note that Ron Paul is still playing up the delegate strategy, and, as of a speech he gave in Berkeley last week, he still sounded very confident about his prospects. Meanwhile, Newt Gingrich is talking about his campaign in the past tense. We’ll see what happens in Tampa, which is after the money bomb on the 15th (btw).
….
If the establishment had its way, there would only be one Republican left in this race – and the National Convention would just be a massive rally for Mitt Romney.
There would be no talk about individual liberty. No mention of trillion-dollar deficits, real spending cuts, and the out-of-control Federal Reserve.
And there would be no questioning the cost of utopian nation-building schemes or policing the world.
But thanks to your hard work and dedication to the cause of liberty, the establishment isn’t getting its way.
Not this time.
I’m planning to take my campaign to Restore America NOW all the way to Tampa, Florida, for the Republican National Convention.
But to do so, my campaign must have the funds to continue picking up delegates all across the country.
So can I count on you to help me fight all the way to the National Convention bypledging to make a generous contribution to my campaign’s Money Bomb on April 15?
So far, my campaign’s delegate strategy has paid off.
Dedicated supporters of mine have been turning out at their local caucuses and conventions to run as delegates to their Congressional District or State Conventions – where National Delegates will be elected.
It’s these delegates who will choose the Republican nominee at the National Convention in August.
That’s why it’s absolutely crucial my campaign has the funds to continue organizing and winning delegates in many states around the country.
And there are also important primaries in Texas and California coming up where hundreds of delegates will be up for grabs.
That’s why I’m counting on you to pledge to contribute to my campaign’s Money Bomb on April 15.
You and I have fought tooth and nail against the establishment for nearly an entire year now.
And the most important battles are happening right now.
So please, help me take my campaign to Restore America NOW to the Republican National Convention by pledging to make a generous contribution to my upcoming April 15 Money Bomb.
Let’s take our fight all the way to Tampa.
For Liberty,
Ron Paul
P.S. My campaign is holding a Money Bomb on April 15.
With the Republican National Convention fast approaching, my campaign must have the funds to continue winning delegates in many states all over the country.
So please pledge to contribute to my Money Bomb on April 15 to help me take our fight all the way to Tampa!
Kitsch-Posh EXCLUSIVE: Inside the SFO Yoga Room
Thursday, February 16th, 2012San Franciso International Airport recently unveiled a Yoga room, which is being called the first of its kind anywhere in the world.
One of your editors flew out of SFO on Thursday and had a chance to visit the Yoga room. How was the experience, you ask? Well, the pictures speak for themselves. Please note that the lights for the $15,000-$20,000 room went on and off at random intervals:
P.S.: No one bothered me as I was taking the pictures inside and outside of the room, even though I was next to the security checkpoints, looked young and somewhat middle-easternish, and only had a backpack on me. AMERICA!
P.P.S.: The plane from SFO to LAX was over 20 minutes late thanks to Obama Jam.
P.P.P.S.: No Yogic Flying, sadly.
October 21, 2011: The really real end of the world
Thursday, October 20th, 2011The Harvard Center for Ethics presents…Eliot Spitzer
Monday, November 9th, 2009No, really:
The title of the lecture is “From Ayn Rand to Ken Feinberg — How Quickly the Paradigm Shifts. What Should Be the Rationale for Government Participation in the Market?” We guess he will talk about how different New York would be if he could take down Wall Street and whatnot. That and/or prostitutes. [Edmond J. Safra Foundation Center for Ethics at Harvard] [Office of the Arts at Harvard]
Ron Paul fans react to McMahon senate announcement
Thursday, September 17th, 2009[Wonkette via Mother Jones]
The wrestler in the video is Glenn Jacobs (a.k.a. Kane), a hardcore Ron Paul/libertarian/Austrian economics fan. He even blogs about those things here and here. Given that Linda McMahon is running for the same seat that former Ron Paul adviser Peter Schiff wants, putting two and two together is easy. Kane saw the neo-con oozing out of McMahon years ago and tombstoned her. The “storyline” was just a cover.
Now McMahon is getting her revenge by becoming the anti-freedom establishment candidate, or so says diehard Austrian Lew Rockwell:
The powerbrokers who run the Republican party in the US and CT want to stop Peter Schiff’s run for the federal senate against Crook Dodd, so they are ginning up the campaign of the very wealthy Linda McMahon, head of the World Wrestling Federation, since the other Republicans are such losers.
Duh. After all, is it really a coincidence that McMahon’s announcement comes when the latest poll shows Peter Schiff getting a whooping 1% of the vote among Republican primary voters? [Capitol Watch] To be fair, Dodd is failing so miserably that another poll shows Schiff almost neck and neck with Dodd were Schiff to become the Republican candidate. [Rasmussen] This is a big if now that Linda McMahon is there to use all her wrestling monies to ensure the power elite maintain the Connecticut seat. Or maybe she is a zooprise Ron Pauls kandidates that will split the neo-con vote in half and give Schiff the victory or something. Let the internets debate begin. [Ron Paul Forums]
The real question is: who will be McMahon’s partner in her tag team match against Kane and Schiff at WrestleMania 26?
HOPE Comics revived
Monday, June 22nd, 2009The recent JibJab video portraying Barack Obama as a superhero is probably the best Obama caricature floating around the Internets. Watch:
This video awoke some memories. Last year we designed Kitsch-Posh’s HOPE Comics series [OMG Kitsch-Posh]. We worked only on one issue because we figured that Obama would lose (no, not really; one of us wrote the issue at 3AM when he couldn’t sleep). This was also before Obama appeared in Spider-Man and other comic books. Since we don’t like to recycle old content too often, we have given the comic an alternate ending with an alternate font. See if you can spot it:
ABC also notes M0 increasing more than ever before

We have been writing about this for several months. This particular graph shows M0 through the decades.
Khyber Pass
Sunday, March 8th, 2009As you knkow, America now has big worries about her supply lines into Afghanistan due to the Khyber Pass being targeted by the enemy. Is History ever going to get bored of the old Khyber Pass Stole My Empire meme?
