Okay, so bear with my guys, because, though I know it will shock you, shit’s about to get crazy in Paultardland.
Last night, I was watching Star Trek (TOS) on MeTV, the “Plato’s Stepchildren” episode, featuring the first interracial kiss in the history of television that almost blew up TV in the South. And I was reflecting on, first, how good, but underused, an actress Barbara Babcock was and is and how very much more was going on in that episode than naive kid–or even unjaded young adult–me had appreciated. When what comes on, but an ad for this, telling everybody they need to go see an important message from Ron Paul at ronpaulmessage10.com! now now now!!!
Link to online video of Crazy Ron grifting partnership with Porter Stansberry
Who is “stansberryresearch.com?” Why a company owned and run by this guy:

A guy who’s currently the defendant in a lot of securities fraud suits and who the SEC fined 1.5 million for securities fraud. Let me just give you the gist of the SEC’s complaint by quoting three paragraphs from it:
‘15’. Agora’s newsletters, including PirateInvestor.com, claim to be “a service featuring independent, original and thoughtful research into the process of wealth creation.”
‘16’. Instead, the newsletters contain nothing more than baseless speculation and outright lies, fabricated to induce investors to pay Agora (or its subsidiaries) for subscriptions or purported inside information.
‘17’. The subscribers paid Agora for the alleged insider information only to later discover that the inside information was false.
This is who Ron has hooked up with to scare senior citizens into dropping a five bucks on a book and, in the process, accidentally signing up to, what else?, an expensive newsletter subscription that will help them survive the coming OMFG OBAMANOMICS FIAT CURRENCY INFLATION OOGA BOOGA 'POCCYCLYPSE!!!"
If you’re dumb enough to watch the video, you’ll find that in classic LaRouche Pauleroid grifter fashion, it goes on and on and on and on about the scary coming economic 'poccyclipse without really saying anything about how to save yourself and your carefully hoarded retirement savings, because, after all, we’re not just giving away this important and valuable inside info for free, you rubes!
So right now, Ron is grifting like a motherfucker, cashing in on the crazy while the cashing is good and his name is kinda in the news right when, and indeed because, his kid is running for president. I mean, how big a sack of self-centered sociopathic Randian shit do you have to be not to open up a can of STFU for however long it takes your son’s campaign to flame out instead of cashing in on it? And yes, I know that’s the Randian way, but damn!
Eventually, even our idiot press will call Ayn-Boy on this and Ayn-Boy, in true Randian fashion, will have to throw Crazy Uncle Daddy Ron under the bus.
