Ron Paul Supporters Threaten To Throw Rudy Giuliani Off Ferry

Ron Paul Supporters Go Nuts; Taunt Giuliani On Ferry

Crossposted from Stop The ACLU

Texas congressman and Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul does not believe that 9/11 was an “inside job” and his campaign distanced itself from a raucous pro-Paul demonstration on a Mackinac Island ferry Friday night, a Paul spokesman said Monday.YEAH RIGHT!

In the incident, Paul’s supporters taunted former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani for alleged complicity in the attacks.



Spokesman Jesse Benton said the campaign was aware of Internet reports about the demonstration, which occurred late Friday when Giuliani boarded a ferry loaded with Paul supporters leaving a Michigan GOP conference. No Paul campaign officials were involved, Benton said.

According to one eyewitness, Giuliani was beset by dozens of Paul enthusiasts as he was leaving the island, some of whom shouted taunts about 9/11, including: “9/11 was an inside job” and “Rudy, Rudy, what did you do with the gold?” — an apparent reference to rumors about $200 million in gold alleged to have disappeared in the collapse of the World Trade Center towers.

Ed Wyszynski, a longtime party activist from Eagle, said the Paul supporters threatened to throw Giuliani overboard and harrassed him as he took shelter in the ferry’s pilothouse for the 15-minute journey back to Mackinaw City.

“It was awful,” said Wyszynski, who supports Mitt Romney for the GOP presidential nomination.

“I was embarrassed to be a Republican. Never, ever, have I seen such a disgraceful performance.”

Its pretty bad when you have to distance yourself from your own supporters. I know that not all Ron Paul supporters are conspiracy theory nuts, YEAH RIGHT! but these clowns are the ones taking the headlines. They should be ashamed. They are only hurting the very candidate they claim to support. Below is a blurry video of the incident mentioned above.

I dont feel sorry for Ron Paul at all. He created these LUNATIC supporters with his crazy rants. Ron Paul is NO Republican and is an absolute lunatic just like his supporters. Or should I say his "Cult". These people are seriously disturbed and are becoming dangerous. Time to start ripping Ron Paul supporters to shredds!

Giuliani Bashes NYT, Hillary, And MoveOn.org

Rudy Giuliani hits N.Y. Times, Hillary Clinton and MoveOn.org

Rudy Giuliani blasted the New York Times, Hillary Clinton and MoveOn.org to the press in Atlanta yesterday.

For Rudy Giuliani, it was the perfect liberal trifecta - a way to slam The New York Times, Hillary Clinton and the leftist MoveOn.org group in one fell swoop.




All Giuliani needed was one bogus newspaper story and $64,575 in campaign cash, both of which the Republican presidential hopeful used yesterday to spawn a bonanza of free publicity in the conservative blogosphere.

In one of the more transparent stunts of the 2008 presidential race, Giuliani began the day by accusing The Times of selling the Democrat-friendly MoveOn.org a "heavily discounted" ad on Monday that cast U.S. commander Gen. David Petraeus as "General Betray Us."

Republican candidates have blasted the ad as an unpatriotic smear of a revered general, and yesterday Republican Giuliani accused The Times, MoveOn.org and Democratic presidential foe Clinton - who has refused to denounce the ad - of engaging in "character assassination."

"What we should move on with ... is a civil discourse without name-calling," Giuliani said in Atlanta - after demanding that his campaign be given the same "discounted rate" to run a pro-Petraeus ad today.

But Giuliani's facts were challenged. Any advocacy group seeking to place a single, full-page, black-and-white ad in The Times on "standby" over a seven-day period - the paper picks the day - pays what MoveOn.org did, $64,575, sources said.



The New York Post reported The Times charges a higher rate, $181,692, setting up erroneous charges MoveOn got a "lefty" discount. But the higher price is for ads guaranteed to run on a specific day, said Times spokeswoman Catherine Mathis.

All of which were details-schmetails to Team Giuliani, which leaped at the chance to hit three of the right's top liberal demons.

"These times call for statesmanship, not politicians spewing political venom," said Giuliani in his ad, just above a Web address for his campaign.

Clinton responded with a statement from her office noting that "Mayor Giuliani supports George Bush's Iraq policy and believes it is working.

"Sen. Clinton knows it isn't and will keep up her efforts to end the war," the statement said.

By the end of the day - with Giuliani's challenge already scoring huge points on conservative talk radio and Web sites - his campaign released its ad. It was unclear when it would run in The Times or how much it cost, but sources indicated it was the same $64,575 as MoveOn.org paid.
