It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a — Ron Paul blimp!


Talk about getting your project off the ground.


Ron Paul supporters have announced the flight plan for their blimp, and you locals reading this in D.C. are in luck. It should be in town (over town?) about 4-5 p.m. Wednesday, weather permitting.


After cruising above the District, the blimp is scheduled to proceed to New York and then farther north.


Paul supporters have declared that another major fund-raising push will happen on Dec. 16 — they've nicknamed it the Tea Party — and the blimp will be in place to dump tea into Boston Harbor.


But the blimp is good for more than just boosting their candidate. Supporters say it can suck the oxygen out of some of Paul's opponents in New Hampshire.


To that end, there's this subtle warning on the blimp's home page: "The blimp is very social. It wants to get its picture taken with every candidate in the race, and will be attending a lot of their functions."

Can we send Ron Paul away in this blimp?

I cannot WAIT for Ron Paul's airship to harass other candidates rallies from the air--let's see that on the six o'clock news--this is simply hilarious!

What other candidate has people who are so innovative and dedicated?! Such incredible support and effort, this is truly a revolution!

Ron Paul's support is so much stronger than anyone realizes. Watch the cash counter go up, up, and away on December 16th at www.RonPaul2008.com.

Now we have air superiority (along with idea superiority). Unfortunately it took segregationist Governor Wallace to reveal the truth that "there's not a dime's worth of difference between" Republicans and Democrats. The Democrats willingly went along with the War in Iraq, suspension of Habeas Corpus, detaining protesters, banning books like America Deceived (book) from Amazon, stealing private lands (Kelo decision), warrant-less wiretapping and refusing to investigate 9/11 properly. They are both guilty of treason.
Support Dr. Ron Paul and save this great nation.

The blimp is a nice show of support. Even better is all of the local support and enthusiasm that is seen across the country.
The voters are awakening from 15 years of sleep. The message of freedom and liberty is alive.

The people of this country are fed up with a big government that leads us into never-ending wars while taking away our freedoms here at home to make us "safe". They are bankrupting our country bombing bridges in Iraq, rebuilding bridges in Iraq while in the meantime, our bridges and infrastructure here at home are collapsing.

Neither party of the media-dubbed top-tier candidates are willing to stand up and shout "enough". Is it any wonder that people are willing to go to any length to support a man who is willing to tell the truth -- especially when that man has a consistent 30-year history of telling the truth?

Extremism in the name of liberty is never a vice. Moderation in the pursuit of justice is never a virtue -- Barry Goldwater

At least when the Blimp shows up at other candidates' functions, their hot air will have company! (I know, it's HELIUM- poetic license!).

THe blimp itself isn't the only unique and innovative thing about this exposure opportunity. Many in the 'Mainstream Media' are criticising the way the money was raised for it- by private citizens with a public corporation outside of the official campaign. THE SHOCK! THE HORROR! Real citizens using their own funds to promote free speech about a candidate!

I'm sure the pundits and critics are more comfortable with a shady 501c corporation that no one can find out exactly who is fundng it, spewing out lies and invective a few days before the polls open. Or campaign fundraiser 'bundlers' like Norman Hsu raising $850,000.00 for the CLinton campaign from illegal Chinese immigrants, all the while running his own Ponzi scheme. If Hsu hadn't got caught, he'd probably be Hillary's nominee for Fed Chairman!

ALl this points out the hypocrisy and corruption implicit and explicit in the current campaign finance laws. When citizen use their own money and legally finance a positive method of free speech expression, and are CRITICISED by the Washington elite for it, then there truly is something VERY wrong in campaign finance law.

And to think,we are making history...Imagine the stories we will tell our grandchildren!!!

rEVOLution!!!

If creativity, energy, innovation, consistency and truth can win an Presidential election, then we are going all the way!
Go Ron Paul!

Please tell me they're dropping waterbaloons full of tea on the other candidates' heads.

What a wonderful way to help get around the Zionist/Fascist Owned Mainstream propaganda (News) machine and their near virtual reporting black-out of Ron Paul. I say black-out not merely in the sense of censoring him from the news; he is also censored as they've continually misrepresented his views and summational understanding of the issues.

Freedom encourages creativity and an abundance of ideas. That's why Ron Pauls grassroots campaign is doing so well, some the brightest and most inspired Americans are taking part of the grassroots movement. This is merely a glimpse of what a Ron Paul candidacy would look like.

Hey everyone, check out this site for a Times Square Ad to coincide with the 16 Dec Tea Party Money Bomb. The cutoff is the 12th (I know, not much time), but they only need $50,000.
Great advertising scheme that would reach lots of people.

Check the creative, very intriguing, and historically based prediction for 2008 election.

This coming election is going to be exciting for the surprises emanating from the internet.

Matt Drudge breaking the blue dress story on his website will be forgotten when historians describe the impact of the internet on the 2008 election.

RON PAUL -- THE OBJECT OF FEAR AND LOATHING

Is he that Libertarian Republican presidential candidate who was first totally ignored, then cruelly ridiculed, and now viciously attacked by the Neo-Con Republican and Neo-Lib Democrat media elite, who regard him with extreme fear and loathing; is he that exceptionally sensible and uncompromisingly honest leader, who has again won the Republican YouTube debate by a landslide; that Ron Paul, who the World is cheering onto presidential victory?
