Paulistinians are a collection of a lot of things, but one thing is for sure, many Paulistinians are liberal trolls, as illustrated by Barry Manilow.

[Always Right]

No, he just hates conservatives so he gave Ron Paul money to fight conservatives in the primary race. He is obviously a far-left kook.

[vetsvette]

Barry Manilow is a mindless, intolerant jerk.

[TexasCajun]

Closet something?

[Badeye]

Exactly.

[Lucky9teen]

Barely Man Enough is a tool. Didn’t Hannity just announce yesterday that he refused to go on The View because of Hasselbeck and he didn’t want to appear in front of any “conservatives”?

What a moron. Fairy Banananose

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

OMG THE HORROR!!!

[GulfBreeze]

No..... He is a liberal.

Like all the surrender monkeys. He is a liberal.

Barry Manilow is donating to Ron Paul for two reasons.
One - To embarass the Republicans.
Two - To try to get a surrender date set in Iraq.

"Didn’t Hannity just announce yesterday that he refused to go on The View because of Hasselbeck and he didn’t want to appear in front of any “conservatives”?"

Yes, this is why I want to remind the Paulistinian community here on Freerepublic that they are standing shoulder to shoulder with bottom feeding scum.

[ICE-FLYER]

Barely Manenough is not worthy of our conversation

[AlexW]

Someone help me out.
What is the purpose of contributing to each of three
competing candidates?
The “covering all bases” excuse does not wash with me.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

No, he just hates conservatives so he gave Ron Paul money to fight conservatives in the primary race.

Please explain to me how Paul can "fight" conservatives in a primary election. You guys are completely losing it.

[BallyBill]

He is scardy of girls with cooties, so yea, I believe he donated to a Space Alien.

[ClearCase_guy]

As I always say:

5% of Ron Paul's support comes from good conservatives who care about our Constitution.
95% of Ron Pauls's support comes from leftists who are having a good laugh and trying to sabotage our nomination process.

[bmwcyle]

He gave to all the liberals.

[elizabetty]

It may not prove he is a Libertarian but it does prove he is kooky.

[lormand]

Paulistinian ping

“Is Barry Manilow a Closet Libertarian?”

Barry’s closet is probably really full.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

You’re worried about some prissy liberal’s donation when you got globalists, trans-nationalists, and open border proponents donating to Giuliani, Romney, and Thompson?

[Petronski]

Not libertarian, just an anti-war leftist.
