Ron Paul Supporters Walk Out of Rumsfeld Tribute

A steady stream of Texas Rep. Ron Paul's supporters walked out of a planned tribute for Donald Rumsfeld at CPAC Thursday afternoon. The walk-out had been planned ahead of time in part by Campaign for Liberty organizers and it seemed to be supported by more than 100 CPAC attendees.

The former defense secretary was also booed when took to the stage. There seemed to be a back-and-forth between Paul supporters and other CPAC attendees trying to drown each other out while Rumsfeld watched.

Former Vice President Dick Cheney then took the stage, but the heckling did not stop in what was an amazing display of friction. Someone in the crowd yelled to Cheney above the din "draft dodger." Nonetheless, the crowd is overwhelmingly warm to Rumsfeld, who eventually took his place in the presentation.

Exactly what you’d expect from the crackheads who support Ron Paul. Rummy should see it as an honor.

[lormand]

I hate Paulhroids!

[no-s]

That’s it for Ron Paul, for me. I love Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney, too.

Foo on that. I still like all three of 'em. They don't have to like each other. And they don't have to like me either. heh. I must admit to prefer Rumsfeld and/or Cheney over Paul.

+1

[lormand]

I use the term “Paulhroid” as this event magnificently illustrates. They are the hemmorhoids of politics.

[pissant]

Ron Paul and his retarded followers aren’t worthy to carry Rummy’s jockstrap.

[lormand]

"I hope they took their pacifiers and play toys with them."

...and bongs and crack pipes, and Taco Bell trash...

[sam_paine]

Obama reviews the infighting and is exceptionally pleased.

[mass55th]

"The Ron Paul nuts in action."

They sound as bad as Code Pink.

[EternalVigilance]

If he said we should pull all financial support for Israel, they would love him.

Of course, he’s not that crazy.

[Servant of the Cross]

No, Dick and I love Liberaltarians. Really. Compared to them, any foreign policy looks brilliant.

[lormand]

It’s not really infighting, it is an attempt by lunatic fringe libertarians to hijack the GOP using the tactics of anarchists, who happen to be their kissing cousins.

[Diogenesis]

Rumsfeld is a US Patriot.

CPAC and Ron Paul are something else.

CPAC [ = Obama Republicans] supports the Islamic invasion, CAIR, Mitt Romney and antiSemitism.

CPAC/ACU/CAIR is run by David Keene
involved in Palin-bashing and Romney-care polishing.

"Keene's ACU also puts on the annual CPAC conference in Washington.

.In the last three years CPAC has devolved into nothing more than
an annual love fest for the most established of establishment
Republicans, Mitt Romney. It should come as no surprise that David
Keene supported Mitt Romney in 2008. "

Long courted by Romney, Keene agreed to formalize his endorsement of

"David A. Keene (born May 20, 1945) is the current chairman of the American
Conservative Union, a position which he has held since 1984. Additionally, he is the
managing associate at the Carmen Group Lobbying, a lobbying firm based in
Washington, D.C. In December 2007, Keene endorsed Mitt Romney's presidential campaign. "

"(at CPAC 2010, the) message there was that "real conservatives" don't support the war
on terror because it is a creation of the "Israeli lobby" - which coalesces with the left-
wing's new anti-Semitism against neoconservatives. Karen Kwiatkowski is a darling of
both the leftist Huffington Post and the anti-Semitic paleocon site Antiwar.com.


…is a board member of the ACU, and from the looks of CPAC's
covered topics and omission of discussion of jihad, it looks as if he exerts enormous
influence over David Keene, the ACU's nominal leader. Norquist and his ally Suhail
Khan seem to be in charge at CPAC - no CPAC event goes on that doesn't reflect their perspective. ….
Grover Norquist's troubling ties to Islamic supremacists and jihadists have been known
for years. He and his Palestinian wife, Samah Alrayyes, who was director of
communications for his Islamic Free Market Institute until they married in 2005, are very
active in "Muslim outreach." …..
It was Norquist who ushered these silver-tongued jihadists into the Oval Office after the
worst attack ever on American soil. ….
Grover Norquist was on the jihad payroll before and after the carnage and death of
September 11….
Norquist also introduced Nihad Awad, cofounder and executive director of the Council
on American-Islamic Relations, to President Bush. ….
It is no surprise that CPAC 2010, like CPAC 2009, had nothing addressing the war we
are actually engaged in. This is due to the influence of Norquist, Keene, and Suhail Khan,
a CPAC board member. According to Gaffney, Khan "has repeatedly been a featured
speaker at MSA, ISNA and CAIR events" - that is, Muslim Students Association, Islamic
Society of North America, and Council on American-Islamic Relations, three groups
linked to the Muslim Brotherhood, the international Islamic organization dedicated to
establishing the rule of Islamic law and the subjugation of infidels worldwide."
