Obama’s Money Bomb
Paraphrasing this digg comment:
Holy cow!!! 72 individual donations totalling $4,650!!! Oh my heck, this is incredible. Phenomenal! They broke the Ron Paul Internet fundraising code! The mainstream media can no longer continue their blackout of this Barack fellow! He has truly proven that he deserves to be on the stage!

“Grassroots fundraiser for Barack: Obama Grassroots at work, 24x7, in Red, Blue, Purple states and beyond.” (—from the log entry)
Forty-seven hundred bucks, was it? (Oh excuse me, forty-six fifty? sorry about that typo ....) ... The “grassroots” chipped in that much? ... Mmmm .... Well ..... Look guys, maybe that lawn could use some fertilizer? ... Scott’s Turf-Builder® is pretty good, I hear ... or Miracle-Gro®. Hey if you’re strapped for cash just go down to the local Agway and pick up a fifty-lb sack of 5-10-10 ... but don’t spread it too heavily or the lawn’ll burn ... shame to burn such a lush expanse of turf ... (Wow I wonder what brand of lawn fertilizer Ron Paul’s people used ... Hey it wouldn’t be the old tried-and-true brand called The Truth®, could it? You know, the one our grandfathers always relied on, and theirs before them? ... Nah ... that’d be way too simple ... Gotta be something more to it than that ..... something slicker, smarter, some short-cut .... I’ll figure it out .......)
This is mainly useful as a warning in how to market. For products/messages whose failure is potentially embarrassing, keep the advertising just one tick above demand.

Difficult to say, melba.

After making, selling, and distributing coins legally and unmolested by the feds (who were well aware of them and their activities) for a decade, this private company found itself suddenly raided by the feds precisely as it was about to start selling and distributing “Ron Paul” dollars supporting the candidacy of Ron Paul. In the raid the feds spent six hours hauling tons of just-delivered Ron Paul dollars out of there, along with all the company’s stocks of gold, silver, and platinum and all its computer files.
After ten years of the feds leaving the company alone because when people would ask if minting coins privately was legal, the feds “could only scratch their heads” — they didn’t know — the feds suddenly swoop at the precise moment when the neocons who control the federal goverment under their puppet Bush are starting to perceive Paul as a potential threat to their plans for the Middle East: they’re desperate to damage his growing campaign as much as possible, whence this swoop to confiscate tons of “Ron Paul” dollars the distribition of which might have helped him. Talk about playing dirty ... the Bushes and today’s GOP are the past masters at it ...

Obama considers dual income households earning above $97K not to be among the middle class incomes. Inotherwords, he considers dual income families earning about $97K to be rich.

I just realized the story of the federal raid which I linked above was previously noted in another thread, by Red Baron.

The armed robbery of millions of dollars of private assets (gold, silver, platinum, as well as vital office supplies) by the US Government truly symbolises the depth of criminality and treason that this disgusting, immoral, murderous regime has sunk to - the government can now carry out bank heists with complete impunity.
The reason for this record smash and grab, of course, leaving aside the sheer tinhorn despotism of it, is that the creation of a rival currency will generate consciousness among Americans that the greenback is a worthless paper currency. On their own strategic terms, it is completely understandable that a rival means of exchange may threaten their control of the people. Hence the armed hold-up.*
Added to the US Government’s deliberate genocide in the Balkans, the Middle East, and of course on American soil itself (most notoriously the internationally-condemned and outlawed-via-the-Genocide-Convention** crime of forced race-replacement; along with other atrocities such as the mass-murder of dozens of men, women and children at Waco, and Lord knows what else), this should be the breaking point that leads Americans to yell “Enough!”, to cease bankrolling this illegal usurper government in a massive tax strike, and to apprehend, prosecute, and carry out the appropriate punishment against all officials who have colluded in the crimes I have listed above, and more.
*It was not a “police raid” - that would imply some kind of legitimate law and order excuse for the Regime’s actions - this was the desperate, grasping act of a Banana Republic. By the way, you won’t hear the controlled-Left, objectively-pro-regime shills on Znet complaining about this raid.
**The fact that the US Government has not yet been brought to trial for carrying out a deliberate policy of race-replacement in no way changes the fact that this crime, and it has been a crime AT LEAST since the Genocide Convention was signed, that is merely in need of court proceedings being filed. That some criminal perpetrators, whether they be robbers, rapists, or regimes, get away with their deeds in no way changes the actual law.

Noam Chomsky would support a warmongering Hillary Clinton over Ron Paul. WHAT A SURPRISE!

What a slippery piece of work he is.
