Paul and his supporters are the reason I set digg to not display any political stories. We both think the guy is a joke and an accidental, pseudo-success story, caused mainly by a group of 18 year old stoners. The “Paulites” are apparently constitutionalists, but seem a bit hypocritical when they won’t accept that the people have spoken (by the way, I don’t know who I’m voting for yet). I also feel that a lot of Paul’s ideas are Luddite and the man himself is an anachronism. I also believe that, were he to win the presidency, firstly, he would be unable to incite the changes he says he wants to; and secondly, his presidency would be the worst thing that happened to the government since old hickory took office.

This is why I am taking it upon myself to start the “Bury Old Ron Everywhere” movement (BORE) for short. I know this blog is well read, so the movement should take off. Being a member is easy, whenever you see a story posted on Digg or elsewhere posted, bury it and try to start a flame-war on the comments thread, then duck out.

The banter on “DVDs For Delegates to Elect Ron Paul” is a good example.

I hope to eventually be the most hated group on the internet.
