Ron Paul's Rally for the Republic Open Thread.

| posted by Petulant | Tuesday, September 02, 2008




THE CONVENTIONS MUST END. The Republican Convention will not start until 7 pm (eastern) this evening, but O' joy of joy, CSPAN2 is showing Ron Paul's Rally for the Republic starting at 1:30 pm. You can also watch it live at Ron Paul's Campaign For Liberty

I am glad when I ran errands I stopped by the liquor store. Normally Mister Petulant NEVER has a cocktail before 5 pm, but after a potentially stirring opening by Mr. Tucker Carlson, I might have to hurry to the decanters. Then, there is Grover Norquist at 2:50 pm. I might be incapacitated by the time the GOP starts speechifying. But, hey, I like my Republicans with a stiff chaser.

The schedule for all your Ron Paul goodness is here.

If anything is truly interesting, I will post video.

Update: (Video)Tucker Carlson's introduction to the Rally for the Republic and his vote for Ron Paul.
Update Update: (Video) Here is Grover Norquist's 16 minute, it seems like an hour, speech about rat-heads in Coke bottles, "Heather has Two Hunters," and The Richard Speck Tax Theory.

Quotes culled by Norquist from my comments below:
"Taxes bad. Guns good"

"We do not go knocking on people's doors telling them that they should become hunters. We do not insist that every fourth grade child in America be assigned books in public school called, 'Heather has Two Hunters.'"

Coercive Utopians have made the cars too small and don't allow enough water in toilets. "Their to-do list for the rest of us is longer and more tedious than Leviticus."

Paraphrased: Rat-heads in Coke bottles! Those Republicans who vote for tax increases are rat-heads in Coke bottles. They damage the brand for everyone else and confuse small children about the nature of the world.

The Richard Speck Theory of Tax Increases: "If they can't deal with everybody in the room at once, they want to take you out of the room one at a time."
