Just when you thought it was safe, the old crackpot has wriggled out of his straightjacket and eluded his keepers long enough to get in front of the cameras and announce that Barack Obama has already won the November election:
Rep. Ron Paul, the House member from Texas who technically remains in the race for the Republican Party’s presidential nomination against […]

Ron Paul said he was going to stop stinking up the presidential race, but I guess he was just gibbering again. According to the Washington Times, Dr. Faux is whining about being dissed by the GOP and its presumptive presidential nominee:
Ron Paul says the legions of newcomers his presidential campaign brought to the Republican Party are […]

Ron Paul has, at long last, decided to do the honorable thing: he’s going to stop stinking up the presidential race.
We are still in the early stages of bringing about the changes that this revolution is all about … Let us hope that we can one day look back and say that this campaign was […]

Every party seems to have at least one guest who will not go home, no matter how many hints you drop that the soirée is over. The Republican Party has just such a guest, and his name is Ron Paul. Republican primary voters have dropped hint after hint that it is time to leave, but he refuses. And, like that proverbial […]
Arnold Kling, who yesterday recommended that thoughtful Libertarians abandon Ron Paul, begins this post with a provisional definiition of a cult:
For now, let’s say that you are in a cult if you have a set of beliefs where your emotional defense mechanisms have shut down any receptivity to what others would consider reasonable doubt.
And he goes on […]

Ron Paul’s primary contribution to last night’s Republican debate at St. Anselm College was to provide comic relief. Nowhere was that more evident than in his answer to Charlie Gibson’s tendentious question about “why we can’t afford medical insurance for everybody”:
How can we afford a trillion-dollar war and we can’t afford health care? Well, that’s the reason. […]
I have said before that Ron Paul will never voluntarily give up his newfound notoriety, even after he is resoundingly rejected by Republican primary voters. He again made that clear last Sunday on Meet the Press.
Republican presidential hopeful Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) refused to rule out the possibility he may run as a third-party candidate during an appearance Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
Like most sudden celebrities, Dr. […]

I’m sure I’ll (once again) incur the wrath of the “paulbearers” for highlighting the following segment from Ron Paul’s writings, but I was simply unable to pass it up. The Houston Chronicle provides a number of “interesting” quotes from the good doctor’s book, Freedom Under Seige, including this:
Paul also singled out people with AIDS, saying they “demand health care and […]
Like Redstate, I’ve received plenty of wacky Ron Paul comments. But, yesterday, it went to a new level: I got my first death threat, or something very like one. In response to a post about Ron Paul and Hillary Clinton, I received a comment from “Brian” that begins as follows:
Someone should want to kill you for […]

I think I need to be in Ron Paul rehab. I keep saying to myself, “No more posts about Ron Paul,” but then I see some article or headline that knocks me off the wagon. This time it was the good doctor’s statement of faith on abortion:
I am also the prime sponsor of H.R. 300, […]
