More proof of Blair's Law: Kucinich-Paul '08
2007-11-28
Call it the liberal-libertarian ticket, where left meets right and Democrat Dennis Kucinich picks Republican Ron Paul to be his vice president.

Blair's Law postulates that there is "an ongoing process by which the world's multiple idiocies are becoming one giant, useless force." Here we see it in action:

-- Dennis Kucinich is a whacked-out far-"Left" pro-surrender fanatic who believes in UFOs and introcuced legislation to outlaw death rays in space and to create a Department of Peace.

-- Not surprisingly, Kucinich is anti-Israel (that is, pro-Palestinian), and at least on friendly terms with the openly anti-Semitic elements of the Left.

-- Ron Paul is a whacked-out far-"Right" pro-surrender fanatic who may or may not believe in UFOs--but he's a "gold bug" and that's almost as loopy.

-- Ron Paul is anti-Israel and on at least friendly terms with openly anti-Semitic elements of the so-called "Right" and other creepy people.

-- Indeed, if Paul would just declare himself "pro-choice" (which would be consistent with being a self-identified "libertarian") there would be no meaningful difference between him and Kucinich (except, maybe, that Mrs. Kucinich is hotter than Mrs. Paul.)

#9  Having lived in Texas most of my life and watched Ron Paul's career continue, you have to appreciate what he really stands for. And that is basically going by the constitution, albeit word for word. I have to admit he appears to be a bit loony, but IMHO less so than the Kennedy's and the other far lefties. He is an obstetrician, so he will always be anti-abortion. There is a lot of common sense from this guy. And no I'm not a troll. I have been enjoying this blog since 9/11. And have attempted to make cogent comments.

#8  You're on to something here, Frank G. Maybe aliens dabble in Earth politics the same way we play The Sims or Second Life. Certainly explains why we kept having Nixon to kick around.

#6  There are many Libertarians that are against abortion because science proves that live starts from conception.

#5  The Gollum-Rumpelstiltskin Pact of 1939 2007. This can't end well.

#4  "I'm thinking about Ron Paul" as a running mate, Kucinich told a crowd of about 70 supporters at a house party here, one of numerous stops throughout New Hampshire over the Thanksgiving weekend. A Kucinich-Paul administration could bring people together "to balance the energies in this country," Kucinich said.

Dear God...

#3  one giant, useless force

He's more optimistic than I am. I'm worried that they are becoming one giant malignant force.

#1  Oh, if only they'd stand on principle and run a third-party ticket in the general election. Just think of the Hillary voters that would suck away! (Plus it would generate a list of the most useless members of society for use comes the revolution. Win-win!)
